Re: [IRCA] North Korean MW Jamming

2016-12-13 Thread Chris Kadlec
Yep, the Peace Village is still there, and I agree, the flag poles there 
would make a good tower on either side! I don't *think* anything is up there 
at least. I don't see anything up there from my photos last time I was up in 
Panmunjeom.


The nearest tower is in Kaesong on the north side of the border, which hosts 
a cellphone jammer as well as the 92.5 Pyongyang FM signal and the 90.3, and 
99.5 jammers. It probably has a GPS jammer as well, but no confirmation on 
that. They are using them rather widely these days along the border and it 
scrambles a lot of the signals.


I got a handful of photos of that tower, which is on the south end of the 
main strip downtown. The AM towers are on the northeast side of town.

Is the Peace Village still there? And do they have any station
broadcasting from the Peace Village? That flag pole would make a great
antenna. :^)

Thanks.

Re: [IRCA] 1053 Jammer - who hears what?

2016-12-13 Thread Chris Kadlec

Nick, thanks for the clip!!

The clip that I shared has the Seoul jammer in the first half and Gimpo in 
the second half with no overlap (unsure where I recorded that one to get 
them both solid like that!).


I think what you're refering to is the fact that your clip from February has 
no siren sound in it though mine does. That's because in 2015, it was just 
the basic "bee" sound. Somewhere along the line between last winter and this 
spring, they added the siren to those jammers behind it. It's part of the 
actual Seoul audio and not another signal. I was taking a break from the 
brutal February weather to work on my text bandscan indoors, so I can't find 
any clips from that time to indicate when they added the siren, but it was 
obviously toward March. But many of my recordings certainly do have the two 
jammers in it, but none that I have shared yet.

I've uploaded a recording from last February at Grayland
Chris:

1053 jammer in all its glory with a 5kHz wide filter.   There is no
sign of any higher pitched components, so it seems that Seoul is our
jammer.   (and that your recording of Seoul has a  touch of Gimpo in it?)

I have a few TP targets in trying for..

2web Bourke NSW 585
Tonga 1017
Kiribati 1440
Tuvalu 621

Tonga is very possible if I can get past KVNT 1020 splatter

Kiribati is possible as Nothing is strong on 1440

Tuvalu will be tough because of KGTL Homer

Now that's warm, for sure!   I think you can manage an hour or two with
that degree of warmth.   As for All Night Nippon, there's an excellent
primer for it at the beginning of PAL.  Very helpful.  Yes, I know that I
hear them all over the place in Masset, usually in the top half of the

[IRCA] not TP 13 Dec Victoria version

2016-12-13 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
We, I did get a recording with about a minute of English lessons 
on 828 just after 1000UT, and the signal strength recording says that 
594 774 and 828 all likely had a bit of  audio just before 1200UT, 
but the radio wasn't recording then.  Otherwise...nada.



best wishes,

Nick

Re: [IRCA] 1053 Jammer - who hears what?

2016-12-13 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
I've uploaded a recording from last February at Grayland 
Chris:  http://www3.telus.net/public/shallpat/listen/1053jammer_20160220.wav


1053 jammer in all its glory with a 5kHz wide filter.   There is no 
sign of any higher pitched components, so it seems that Seoul is our 
jammer.   (and that your recording of Seoul has a  touch of Gimpo in it?)


best wishes,

Nick

Does your recording of the "beehive" jammer have some of the siren 
jammer riding along as well, Chris?


What I've heard here is the basic low grumbling sound with no higher 
frequency components such as on your recording (I don't think high 
frequency components were heard in PEI either).


Part of that may be due to the DXer's tendency to cut off the 
received audio above 2800Hz.I think I have some SDR files from 
earlier in the season that I can play back with the passband opened 
up a bit more to check.

I could really use some assistance from those familiar with any TP 
listeners in **Australia** and regions of the south.


As was mentioned in the past, all of you guys in the west coast 
areas of North America (and apparently northern Europe) commonly 
hear the "beehive" jammer on 1053 out of Seoul, which has an 
exceptionally poor signal in South Korea as opposed to the far 
stronger (sounding) 250kw siren jammer 16 miles to the west.


So I'm curious in the case of those living to the *south* - as it 
appears the siren jammer is aimed in that direction - if the siren 
jammer can be heard in regions south of Korea instead of the beehive 
jammer heard elsewhere to the north and east.


If anyone can pass this along to anyone who may have such 
experience, I'd really appreciate it! I'd like to have evidence of 
the direction in which these jammers are aimed and as can be seen 
with the 1323 CRI (Korean vs. Russian) signals that are/aren't 
received in the US and Canada, it's the directional stations that 
really get out. If my thinking is correct, those to the south would 
regularly hear the *Korean* CRI while those in the states would hear 
the Russian one.


Here are the two jammers:

http://www.beaglebass.com/dx/external/NIS_1053_Seoul_Gimpo.MP3

The Seoul beehive jammer is the first half of the clip. The Gimpo 
siren jammer is the last half. Who hears what?

woman singing mellow music. I also had NHK 1 on 612, same programming as
567 but not as good of a signal and a bit more noise. NHK1 was also present
on 594, much better signal then 612 but not as good as 567, a bit of noise.
(567 audio here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJSgygO9BrI )

AFN 810 The Eagle was about as good as I've had it lately. This is normal
for it, good signal but a little noisy and quick dives into nothingness.

Looking at the messages again in the peace and quiet of the shack, I 
noticed that my replies about Kaesong and commuting were redundant. 
Sorry about that.


Chris,

Is the Peace Village still there? And do they have any station

Re: [IRCA] North Korean MW Jamming

2016-12-13 Thread Chris Kadlec
Indeed the Kaesong Industrial Complex. I would have enjoyed wandering into 
there with my radio, but frankly, the AM and FM stations out of Kaesong 
could be heard from my border DX site quite easily and I got really tired of 
crossing the checkpoint into the DMZ, especially in the rural areas with the 
tank barricades. As an introvert, I enjoy DXing in peace, which doesn't 
usually include armed soldiers, as is the case at my border site (though 
it's actually a tourist site) where the DMZ doesn't exist and it's just a 
plain old river separating the two sides.


People have this incorrect notion that the North jams every frequency, and 
I've had someone argue it out with me, but that's laughable (I'd know if it 
were true, in fact!). Even an industrialized nation isn't stupid enough to 
put forth that much electricity. And electricity seems to be not much of a 
problem with radio in the north these days. On New Year's Day, the north lit 
up those transmitters all at full power, many of which had been off the air, 
and they're still on now.


And thanks for the comments (both of you). I've recorded the commentary for 
my full bandscan that clocks in at one hour - only had to delete 200+ failed 
attempts, enough to put together a bloopers section if I wanted - haha - 
meaning the bandscan itself is about 1h 50m it appears, and with commentary, 
just short of 3 hours. So, detailed... you shall get.


It's more of a thing where I need to be happy with my own work as opposed to 
pleasing others with it. The simple fact is, it'll be out there for a long 
time and find those who want it and as the band there changes, there will be 
this little historical observation and the Korean DXers really eat this 
content up as many aren't familiar with their own foreign regulars.


I'll split up the last jammer and numbers station part as a separate MP3 for 
those who care only about that, and I'm already finding a handful of people 
who do.


Once this is done, I may just drop out of the AM scene! AM in the states 
is... well, you know...

A late response to this I know, but thanks again for posting this
Chris.   Among other things, it is an interesting window into the
relations between North and South Korea.I'd never heard of S.
Koreans commuting to the north for work for example.

 Otherwise, all other Seoul stations are free for listening in
Kaesong, though until recently, the city hosted many South Korean
workers who commute to North Korea daily to work in the factories
across the border, so it's nothing Kaesong residents are unfamiliar with.

For a number of years there was at least one factory either in the DMZ or
just inside DPRK where workers from both countries could work. During one
of the international incidents within the past couple of years, this was, i
believe terminated and the factory (ies) closed to South Koreans.

A late response to this I know, but thanks again for posting this 
Chris.   Among other things, it is an interesting window into the 
relations between North and South Korea.I'd never heard of S. 
Koreans commuting to the north for work for example.
 Otherwise, all other Seoul stations are free for listening in 
Kaesong, though until recently, the city hosted many South Korean 
workers who commute to North Korea daily to work in the factories 
across the border, so it's nothing Kaesong residents are unfamiliar with.
