[IRCA] KEX running ND?

2013-03-22 Thread Patrick Martin
I got an e mail from a DXer in the mountain states that he believes KEX is running ND as they are loud there tonight. In checking the signal here, they are louder here than usual. DXers that need KEX 1190, you might give them a try. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin Seaside OR KGED QSL Manager

Patrick, We were driving in the Moses Lake area of Washington at sunset a few years ago listening to KEX. The signal was good until they when to directional, signal dropped to a poor level.  KEX put a great signal into the San Francisco Bay area after local KNBA signed off at sunset. In fact

Hello All, The band again seemed to be stuck in a Twilight Zone between normal and auroral conditions, with overall results even worse than yesterday. Poor-fair audio from 738-Tahitit and 1566-HLAZ around 1315 was the only sign of TP life, and these fizzled out well before sunrise. It was

Dennis, It reminds me of when Bob and I were on our way back from LA and listening to KMPC 710 in the 80s, and it was blasting in all the way North on I-5, until around LSS when we were somewhere North of Fresno and suddenly, it dropped off the dial. Totally gone. From probably an S9+ 10 DB to

A strictly DU morning here (I think; 567 remains a mystery), and lest Gary point out that while he hears the Chinese and Koreans, I get to hear the DUs, I must say that most everything heard this morning was quite erratic, and dug out of the undergrowth by using the DX Fishbarrel and/or playing

I recorded the last two hours of KLYC's sign-off at 1:00 PM PDT.  The first hour saved to the computer fine.  The final hour recorded - I even played it back - but there was some glitch somewhere and it saved nothing. I clicked save as like usual and then save again, only to have a dialog box

Wonder why the FCC gave this one a fulltime CP? Ever since the breakup of the clears started in 1982, a minimum 750-mile separation from the dominant clear has been required if the station wants to be a U instead of a D. Memphis is only 701 miles from Minneapolis, so by the FCC's own rules,
