[IRCA] New IRCA site design

I have offered to bring the IRCA website into the 21st Century with a stylish corporate design built on a modern PHP/MySQL Wordpress powered platform - I hope to have something up and running within 48 to 72 hours - and will be open to all kinds of observations, suggestions and criticisms.

Asian signals seemed somewhat more healthy this morning here than in Colin's version. A fairly good sunrise enhancement boosted 1566 and 1593 up to respectable levels around 1505, although 1593-CNR1 didn't quite match its unusually good level of a week ago.   At my 1450 start time there were

He certainly mentions al-Arabia as-Saudiya in one of the news items, Michael. The last time I heard them (in PEI, not here, hi), I think the country name was part of the ID on the hour, but I'm sure the east coast DXers are far more up to date on the IDs used now. Hope you can snag as many

I'm glad to see a real web site being developed. It's needed. Something I haven't see you mention is whether "IRCAOnline" is blessed by the IRCA (since their name is being used) and whether IRCA controls content. And as always, people come and go. What happens to the content if the website goes

[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 29 November 2015

As has generally been the case here of late, all the action was at the upper end of the dial. Started at 1425, and HLAZ was already in audio. Poor at that point with a choir singing, but had improved to fair, bordering on good within 10 minutes. VOA 1575 got to audio in time for the
