It was very odd indeed this morning, with 1134, 1242, 1287 and 1422
being the strongest signals here.
I had a lot of noise around 1575, so couldn't dig out audio, but
there were two strong (and Doppler smeared) carriers of 1574.995 and
1574.993 kHz. MWoffset list says VoA is 1574.997, but
I'm playing around with my Misek phaser and am noticing 940 to be an
interesting channel. The main station, semi-local is pretty much exactly on
940, but I'm also able to hear an oldies station (Tell Laura I love her,
etc) is on 940.174 playing Big Bad John right now (06:11 UTC). I'm
seeing
I guess I can answer the question myself. Looked at the MW Offset list, and
sure enough, XEMMM in Mexicali, Mexico is on exactly that frequency with
oldies format. Must be them! Still an interesting frequency,
though...Walt

Walt,
I hear KMER Kemmerer, WY on 940 often. They run only 150w at night, but
gets out well. They used to be a 5 KW daytimer on 950 for years, but
moved because of KOVO's power boost and dropped power. KMER is oldies.

Walt,
Good going on XEMMM, I would have thought for sure KMER, as I have not
heard XEMMM for many years.

Three Russian long-waves and the regular MW TP's today. A lot of splatter this
morning.

189 RUSSIA, Radio Rossii 1301 very weak with talk.

Not a repeat of yesterday, but still interesting. 1575 unfortunately did

Longwave broadcast was back in strength this morning with Radio Rossii

Hi Nick,
you are right, VOA has drifted 2 Hz down to 1575.995 kHz. Farda UAE is
right on 1575.000 kHz. Iran 1575.022 kHz.
Bubble jammer 1574.24 kHz. Plus about a dozen of UNID carriers.

Mike,
KMER I QSL's years ago (70s) with a DX Test the first time. It was a
couple years ago they moved to 940 and dropped power. But their 150w U1
gets out well. I have heard it here 1,000 miles away several times. They
must be in a great location for skip. I hear them more now than I ever
did on
Hi Mauno,
Thanks for taking the time to check into that.I haven't seen the
off-freq signal since then, but then I haven't had a day of similar
reception either. Looks like it will have to remain a mystery for
now. I suppose it's also possible that it was a short-duration
transmitter

Theyre probably tweaking the audio processing and the transmitter
modulation. Good for them.. this station has been a long time coming and
it's locally/family owned.

Unlike on the coast, this morning was pretty much a dud here. No TP
audio noted, and the upper end of the band was even pretty much devoid
of carriers. The lower end had decent carriers on 549, 684, 774, and
792, all seemingly of DU origin.

makeover live event with Dave mentioning K-L-I-F and into FOX News at

702 UNID Australia - 1129 UTC 10/1/11 - An unattended recording caught
two good carriers
TPs were lackluster here in Seattle this morning. 1566 was the only one
producing much audio. There were also a few carriers from the usual
suspects.

First was 1116 at 12.10 GMT (local sunrise 12:31) with weak audio that
became stronger by 12:25 - EE with Australian accent.
774 also produced EE with Australian accent at 12:18 GMT
738 had weak audio, I think French, but couldn't be positive.
Previous night didn't produce any
Good reception at the moment from KTKN 930 Ketchikan (as well as CBC Prince
Rupert 860) at 05:05 UTC with local ID. Achieved with my dusted off Misek
phaser with a West corner fed loop and ALA 100 SW/NE as the inputs. I've
been easily able to null out more local stations. I think I'll keep the
26 matches
