Usual fade up and down signal here on the coast. I have gone by 1710
often and it is a regular here. I still here the carrier during the
middle of the day off the NE EWE.

Good Morning,
Listened from 1235-1308. MW signals dropped of 13
minutes before local sunrise. Just the three strongest
TP's heard with audio this morning.
153 RUSSIA, 1247 weak with music.
189 RUSSIA, 1247 weak with music.
549 Level 4 carrier 1248.
558 Level 4 carrier
A rather interesting morning, from my perspective. Started listening at a
respectable 12:39 UTC and continued to about 13:25. Virtually concentrated all
the listening
to the bottom third of the band, as things from DU were really hopping here.
SF 67 A7 K2. Did, however, get weak audio from
Conditions were better today than yesterday and it was all DU per the loop.
Listened from 1230-1305 ut and heard many carriers all of which were on the
bottom part of the band.
531 Very weak audio at times.
594 Very weak audio at times.
774 3LO good at 1258 ut.

Walter and I were listening to different bands, again
today! Although I could hear/see a goodly number of DU hets, (+audio
from 612 and 756) I had a great Asian AM... best of the season, so
far. All the Japanese Big Guns were there (594 was the poorest). The
stars of the morning were China
A rather interesting morning, from my perspective.

Good for you, Colin! Now I'll have someone (besides John Bryant) to compare
notes with.
Hello All,
For some reason, the Asiatic TP's reported by everyone else this morning
did not make it to this Puyallup Valley location. There was some modest DU
reception, however-- the opposite location from what I had always assumed my
modest DXing environment would favor.

ARGH! In my excitement I forgot to proofread my message, In the first
sentence replace things with thinking. I guess I need to think.
Please delete the previously sent message and my embarrassment.

This morning was overall worse than previous ones this week, with very few
TPs stronger than poor to fair. The conditions turned DU (except for 972
China) just before the band faded completely (1325-1330 UTC). I have yet to
hear some of the 9 kHz stations that others like Gary, Walt, and John are
This shows that WDKD 1310 is simulcast with WSIM or Star-FM 93.7

In the back of my mind I was things about WDKD, but because of the lack
of evidence did not say anything. The reason I was thinking of WDKD was
in the past many East Coast DXers have logged them at night while they
were relaying their FMer, Star-FM. They are fairly easy here in Maryland

According to a quick Google search, WDKD simulcasts with WSIM-FM
Florence, which is branded as Star FM. WSIM is on 97.3 but has a
translator on 97.1, so perhaps there's been some recent station
shuffling. It may just be a red herring, but I thought I'd mention it.

W246BX on 97.1 looks like the 97.1 Frank FM Miller's website mentions and
what we've been hearing on 1310 AM. I'm betting WSIM has an HD2 channel
which is whats on that translator, and WDKD-AM is simulcasting the HD2
channel or the translator.
Websites and known to not be always up to date
Paul
Powell, look at this web. There is a reference to Frank-FM 97.1 and
Star-FM 93.7 FM. Star-FM is the station many East Coast DXers heard
IDing at night on 1310 which ended up being WDKD.

Walt and Others,
The difference in TP and DU propagation between John and the rest of us
seems really bizarre.
I had no trace of any TP audio this morning, but had decent audio from
738-Tahiti (1255) and threshold audio from 639-Fiji (despite a seriously
under-modulated signal).

I caught an ID at 9 PM when the Mexican mx in the mix stopped briefly..
Your listening to ..WKYW Frankfort then more mx. This on my 152 deg Phased
BOG System which is like magnet for stuff from the S to SE, esp in the upper
half of the band. WPNA is Polish and doesn't come in well at night
Nice sleuthing to you fellows who tracked down and came up with WDKD
carrying the Frank-FM message on 1310. It was a very enjoyable thread
to follow the past week or two. Just shows that Delaware Preachers can
stir up some action online :-) .

A few days back you were asking about DUs in Alberta? Well no DUs up here for
many years, but then I don't try for them these days. But I do have TAs to
report.
Nine days on ago Aug 14 I heard what I thought were faint TA carriers on 162
and 171, but I wasn't sure. Then all last week

2) The E-1 is a fine rx, but for any kind of serious MW DX it needs an
external antenna rather than its noise grabbing omni whip.
I use the E-1 here with whatever Phased BOG system I decide to use..either

Hello All,
During the spring and summer, serious experimentation into large
PVC-framed tuned passive loops (of up to 9 feet per side) was undertaken here,
which
included the actual building of ten different loops-- with sizes ranging
from 18 to 9' per side
Finding PVC to be an ideal,
CIGM 790 left the airwaves at EDT with a brief farewell, thanking
its listeners for their support since 1967 and promising that the
memories will last forever.
The transmitter is still on the air at 0058, with nothing but a tone. So
if you're hearing a mysterious tone on 790...well,
28 matches
