[IRCA] Dave Ramsey ad question

In going over my recordings from last Halloween's fantastic sunset skip, I found a station on 1320 during the short break just prior to 2030 CDT giving an ad for Dave Ransey's Living for Legacy coming to Seattle. I think I've heard brief local ads from him during this time frame before. Does

This morning wa much like the last couple. Only audio this am was weak from 738 Tahiti. Best carriers (and the only two really close to audio) were presumed New Zealand on 1503 and 1008 (which for some reason was stronger than the last couple of mornings). The upper band wasn't as favoured

Hello All, Here on the Rockwork 4 ocean side cliff in Oregon I was finally able to get a decent ID from a mystery Australian pop music station (at 1323 UTC this morning). The ID was at good strength and clarity-- the only problem is that the female announcer didn't seem to give the station

Hi Gary I listened but couldn't make much of it except Radio 5-31 followed by a word sounding like Ree-Al (like in El Camino Real) I checked the websites for three of the listed Aussies. 2PM and 3GG both show them carrying a talk show called Taking Back the Night until local midnight

For many years I tried for 4KZ without any luck, until a typoon came through some years back and distroyed part of the 4KZ tx site. They then started to operate ND and 4KZ became fairly common along with 2PM. I have never logged 3GG so far, but they have a null towards us. 73, Patrick Patrick

Hi Bruce, Thanks for your very detailed report for the Yachats DXpedition. Although I was only about 90 miles north of your location, the DU propagation seemed much different here-- probably related to some tweaking by the ocean side cliff that I've been using. There hasn't been a single

Again a number of mostly quite weak audios. Often the DUs seem to creep through if it is quiet enough, even if they don't have great carrier strength. not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 612 likely 4QR 1241UT
