Barely audible TA carriers on 1215 right now, 2220UT, in western Canada, local sunset not for another couple of hours. One is 1215. presumably Absolute, but 1214.9851 is ?? Albania is listed as 1214.933 in the latest MWoffsets list, but is it a drifter (still)? (1214.9967 has just

Interesting Nick, as 1215 is doing nearly nothing here in southern Alberta. On the other hand I do have decent carriers on 1467, 1548, and 1575. (Or, at least I did a few minutes ago, as they've gone into a fade at the moment). 73, Nigel Nick Hall-Patch wrote: Barely audible TA carriers

No TA carriers in Seattle at the moment. I also checked 1575 without success. Bruce On 12/11/2010 2:42 PM, Walter Salmaniw wrote: Just barely there 1215 on the Perseus at my QTH, Nick. Clearly my antennae aren't anywhere near as good as my old location. :-( ...Walt On Sat, Dec 11, 2010

Patrick, do you have a receiver that can fine-tune that much? Walt On Sat, Dec 11, 2010 at 10:53 PM, Patrick Martin mwd...@webtv.net wrote: Nick, I am geting the carrier at slighly below 1215 too off the NE EWE only. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin Seaside OR KGED QSL Manager

I wonder if the R8 might be a little off frequency Patrick, as usually what has delivered audio this year has been Absolute, and that's right on 1215.... Maybe you could look at zero beating KSL, as I think that should be right on 1160 and would be a good check. So far, all the TA

Absolute has had some decent audio over the past 20 minutes, and the freq is indeed right on 1215. There are a couple of other carriers visible on the display, but both much closer than 1214.92, more like 1214.997 and 1214.998. Bits of audio from France also on 1206, and 963 is very close to
