Re: [IRCA] MW DX from Enid OK, February 26-March 6, 2011

"Extension 720" on WGN is still there, but is pre-empted by Blackhawks and Cubs games/post game shows. It is more frequent since WGN began broadcasting the hockey matches. However, Dr. Rosenberg's anti-Obama bias is becoming a bore. Richard Allen, a long-time WGN listener. - Original Mes

Re: [IRCA] [ABDX] (Off topic) Help to contact 8-70 WWL New Orleanbs LA

Not only that, but a few years ago, I tried to get some of my students interested in DX when we were studying the atmosphere. I had them listen at night to see what they could hear and where stations were located. Some of the more crafty ones figured out they could listen via the internet.

[IRCA] KRVN-880 off the air

KRVN-880 is completely off, as of 1845 ELT.  Already have an ID from unneeded WMEQ in Wisconsin.  Hoping to get CKLQ, which I DO need, before too long. 73, Rick Dau South Omaha, NE Sony ICF-2010 + Quantum Loop  ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@har

Re: [IRCA] [ABDX] (Off topic) Help to contact 8-70 WWL New Orleanbs LA

I guess this kinda brings up a question I'll pose to all listservers that I'm on -- do stations that stream their audio still QSL?  I mean, you could say you were at such and such a location listening on terrestrial radio, but any CE could counter with an assertion that you could be in Seattle

Re: [IRCA] WFNY-1440 DX test

It sounds phonetically similar to WNPV, actually, although I don't think they use that wording. Their normal slogan is "InfoRadio". It almost sounds like the WHKZ "Fox New Radio" intro without the "Fox". Russ Edmunds 15 mi NNW of Philadelphia Grid FN20id FM: Yamaha T-80 & Onkyo T-450RDS w/ AP

Re: [IRCA] WFNY-1440 DX test

WFNY is one of the regulars here on 1440, so it was no surprise that the test came through well on my timed recording. The code was certainly very punchy... in fact, if it was on the ham bands, I'd be inclined to say they had "key clicks". :-) It's too bad for the folks out west that east-west

[IRCA] WFNY DX Test Heard in Madison WI

Just wanted to add my name to those who heard the WFNY DX test this morning. Signal strength was a little disappointing but there were moments of breakthrough. Code set were heard, plus at times I could hear the local DJ who explained the test, occasionally gave a time check or current wx co

[IRCA] WFNY TEST heard

WFNY test heard here with same details as reported by other DXers.  Initial code IDs were so weak I couldn't make out a letter at all.  Then hrd the initial announcement and a couple tentative IDs.  The signal built through "Reber Rouser."  Reached its strongest during the announcement that foll

Well done, George, and I'm amazed that you were able to get it through KDIZ.  WFNY was a no-show at this locality.  :(   73, Rick Dau South Omaha, NE Sony ICF-2010 + Quantum Loop From: George Sherman To: IRCA@hard-core-dx.com Sent: Sun, March 6, 2011 12:41:30 A

Re: [IRCA] WFNY DX test

I tried. That's about all I can say. Our local WNPV on 1440 in Lansdale made this difficult. I drove several miles into one of their nulls in an attempt to receive the test, but it was a no go. 73, Rene' Rene' Tetro W2FIL Lansdale, PA ___ IRCA maili

Re: [IRCA] WFNY DX test

Not a very good eastern night last night, was wasn't surprised to hear no trace of the test. Not much at all heard on the frequency, with only Wetaskawin and KMAJ definitely noted. 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, Alberta ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@har

[IRCA] WFNY Test heard - and an unID

Unattended recordings yielded various aspects of the test program - code, voice ID's, calls, music despite having to aim almost right through local flea-power nightttime WNPV and dominant WHKZ-OH. I wasn't sure how well that would work when I set up the 2010 last night. I also had an as yet un
