Re: [IRCA] 1134 TA Audio Strong at 0203 on Slider E100, MP3 made

Hi Dennis, 1134 audio has been fading in and out for about an hour here. The 0200 signal was very weak, then it came up again around 0203 to the best level all evening, for an E100 Slider MP3. Walt and others are hearing lots of other stations, but it's no fun to DX in the back

No audio yet, but level 5 carrier. Not there before 03:00, so this has to be TWR Beninnever heard here in Victoria, but has been heard in late August/early Sept in Masset..Walt. ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com

[IRCA] not so much TA

Things have certainly quietened down in the last half hour or so. Heard DLF with operatic singing on 756 and 1269 for two relogs, and Farda was doing very nicely also...but by 0300, the bottom's pretty much dropped out. best wishes Nick * Nick Hall-Patch

[IRCA] Magnetic verius electronic waves

Met a ham operator at an unrelated event the other day and he was insistent about a device one can order from the U.K. for a few hundred dollars that allows you to receive magnetic waves only, as opposed to electronic waves. He said these magnetic waves are many db quieter. Is this bunk or is

[IRCA] What's left of TA activity

The bottom sure dropped out. DarnI'm still getting audio on 1008 and 531. 531 is interesting as there are 2 signals easily visible531.00 and 531.028 with the latter probably Algeria, and the former Faroes. Not a peep at all tonight from 1413 Moldova tonight. Wonder whether it's a
