[IRCA] TP for 7 Oct from Victoria, BC

Just a few minutes listening after 1400UT here this morning, and generally conditions seemed poorer than yesterday. However, signal strengths were so variable that I might have heard more if I'd listened longer. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least

Re: [IRCA] TP for 7 Oct from Victoria, BC

Hi Nick, Thanks again for your TP report from Victoria, and it's always interesting to compare propagation to different areas. 936 hardly at the booming level described by Gary 936-Anhui was only at a fair-good level here this morning, but the signal level was good enough to record

Re: [IRCA] Victoria, BC TP's for 10/7/2010

Hi Walt, Thanks for the detailed band scan from Victoria this morning using your new antennas, and it's great to see your TP-DXing report again! The Asian conditions this morning were best described as low average here, so you should have some better Victoria TP-DX available when

Re: [IRCA] Re; 1130 Interference

Scott, OK, it is the critical hours that are not covered. It seems that slipped through the cracks. Thanks for the reclarification. Now today, Mt. Angel is weaker this morning and CKWX is on top. It sounds like they are trying to make a change. The same was true on Sunday. 73, Patrick

Loosely monitering 540 and this much I know: they are either still on night pwr at LSR or more likely not on as KWMT was all alone which leads me to believe they s/on at 8am or later. SSS DX has been unobtainable for me this season and SRS has been limited to 15 min avg and with a car radio. I

[IRCA] TP for 8Oct2010 from Victoria

Not a great morning, worse than yesterday. Listened between 14:02 and 14:23 this morning. Upper band again noted to be pretty absent. A smattering of DU activity. Seemingly more stations, but at weaker level, and more domestic splatter. JJ were definitely subdued compared to yesterday.

[IRCA] A review of the new Redsun RP007 receiver

Hi all: I was fortunate to receive a sample unit of the new military-styled Redsun RP007 receiver, now available on eBay. In all, I'm not sure I would run and get one just yet, but if Redsun made some key changes, they would have a good radio. The review is posted on DXer.ca:

[IRCA] TP DX in Seattle 10-8-10

This morning was slightly above average here. Most of the regulars were in well, and there were a few surprises. There were a few freqs with unusual sets of tantalizing pips at 1400, but little else was noted on those channels. Oh, how I wished for a few more db of signal strength. 594
