Starting at 6:58:50 pm CST and lasting til 7 pm when they went off, was a
nice list of all the Catholic Radio Network stations under KMOX. Near the
end of the list is an ID for KLIM so they need to update it.
KCRN is now 50 kw days beamed west but not a pure cardioid so some signal

Bearing is about 300 deg from Lubec to Marshalls. Surprising to have that
signal level on a DKAZ aimed 35 deg, but clobbering WTAM 1100 is also
important. Is V7AB using their full 25 kW now? Earlier this month when cx

Hopefully you can catch something more positive from HLAZ. I've never had a

A major advantage of the DKAZ is the significantly wider back null so that
more back end QRM is taken out or greatly reduced. Of course, the more
narrow beamwidth is very useful on crowded freqs and one reason I am able
to catch 2nd tier stations from west coast states here in IL.
Yeah, the don't
factor?

Interesting that Nick had Magic on 702 whereas at SR here in IL I noted
2BL weakly audible in passing. I'll have to go over the recording, although
I don't need Magic, as I haven't heard NZ at all this season.

Craig what dimensions do you plan for the DKAZ?
Typical sunrise period morning here in IL. I start recording at 1158 and
while doing so tune live to 1020 and KTNQ is coming in fine in SS with an
LA street address given in ad. I notice a quite good carrier from 1017 on
the other side of the

I've always felt that Oct. is about the best month to DX and things haven't
disappointed recently.
I've learned to wait for stuff a few hundred miles west to fade and allow
stuff near the west coast to come in. Of course recording with the Perseus
is magical, and the DKAZ still seems to be a

A and K are low and forecast to remain so for a while. I need to set up for
TA's here tomorrow and to put Colin's Phaser thru a final test before I
send it back to Nick.

this wonderful morning in Barrington IL.

Tim, I hope you recorded this stunning morning at 1200 for DU's as I had
carriers, hets, and quite a few audios all across the dial including 1611.
891 had a ripping het on WLS etc. 73 KAZ Barrington IL Perseus and DKAZ
due west.

Chris, if either you or Les have room for a DKAZ aimed west, I'd expect you
could get a couple of the 50 kW Aussies at sunrise on the best mornings.

Things got somewhat AU. We didn't see a bunch of TA's reported last night
from midwestern DXers as we have the previous couple of days. Unless it is
severely AU sunrise DU's aren't affected much.
I had some audio from 4QR 612 a bit after sunrise. There may be a couple
more Aussies with some
Very nice! I am just home and in no cx to DX so to bed and will be at it
tomorrow around 0300 and hoping for similar. 73 KAZ

Not so bad. Here in IL it was like someone switched in a 10 dB attenuator
on anything DU as nothing was close to audio. Only domestic noted of
interest (haven't played back recording yet) was KLSQ 870 from near Vegas.
