[IRCA] TP 2 Apr Victoria version

Gary and Bruce sure proved today that you can hear the deeper East Asians better down Puget Sound way. Today was brief blips of mostly rather faint Asian signals.Mind you there was also a touch of post sunrise DX, mostly HLAZ, which wouldn't quit properly. Still had recognizable music on

And another courtesy would have been to inform us of the change instead if waiting until the subject was brought up again. Chuck From: IRCA on behalf of R. Colin Newell Sent: Monday, April 2, 2018 4:53

Re: [IRCA] file size limit...

Why, after almost 40+ years of posting to paper and email lists, do I not even warrant an email reply? 60kb is good. 90 or 100 is better. That sort of brings us into the 21st century... I’ll remind our readers that there is now a MW DXer list on the internet dedicated to long winded

[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 2 April 2018

A 'stellar DU morning' it was not, but even a fair one is a marked improvement on yesterday. Considerably more decent carriers than yesterday too, so will hope the upward trend continues tomorrow. 594 3WV Horsham, AUSTRALIA Man interviewing woman about a book at 1310. 612

Re: [IRCA] not IBOC

Nick I noticed the same thing but kept forgetting to mention it.  KRKO dropped IBOC some time before March 20, judging from my oldest available SDR file.  KKXA apparently dropped IBOC beginning March 30, based on more recent files. A refreshing change to be sure. Bruce On 4/2/2018 12:06,

Re: [IRCA] file size limit...

I sent him one several weeks ago, and got a quick reply.  He bumped the limit up to 60 kB.  Do we need to have it increased again? Bruce On 4/2/2018 13:24, R. Colin Newell wrote: After being encouraged by numerous IRCA list members... I Took the time 3 weeks ago to send Risto an email about

[IRCA] TP DX in Seattle on April 2

I'm somewhat in agreement with everyone else.  The bottom half of the band was downright miserable today, but the upper half was a bit better (let's call it somewhat below average). What I assume was Taiwan made another surprise cameo appearance at the end of the session.  I also had brief

[IRCA] not IBOC

This morning I realized that KRKO-1380 and KKXA-1520 were no longer using IBOC. Those were the strongest contenders here for generating interference. Hope it stays that way. This may have started April 1st, as files from yesterday also show the IBOC is missing. Normally I've noticed it

At first hearing of this morning's DX, all I can say, Gary is, "what are these 'fair to good peaks' of which you speak?" Whatever was affecting Nigel's Alberta DX yesterday definitely moved west this morning. best wishes, Nick best At 13:46 2018-04-02, Gary DeBock wrote: It was Clunker

[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 4-2

It was Clunker City here this morning as Asian signals took a nosedive, with only the strongest big guns managing any audio. The only healthy-sounding signal was 1566-HLAZ just prior to 1300 (good level), although 972-HLCA managed some fair to good peaks around 1330. The NHK big guns seemed to
