[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 10 December 2018

2018-12-10 Thread Nigel Pimblett
An improvement today over the last couple, with solid signals from the 
big guns, and a few others joining them in audio. Interestingly audio on 
558, 738, and 1188 only showed up after 1500 .    Sunrise now is  1511, 
but I've been negligent about updating my recording settings, so only 
recorded to 1505.


558    unID    Traces of music noted at 1504.

567 JOIK    Sapporo, JAPAN   Woman in Japanese at 1404, //594

666 JOBK    Osaka, JAPAN      Woman in Japanese at 1405, //594

729    JOCK  Nagoya, JAPAN    Man in Japanese at 1439

738    unID   Traces of woman talking at 1505.

846    unID    Traces of woman talking at 1405

873    JOGB    Kumamoto, JAPAN     Woman and man presenting language 
lesson at 1405, //774


972    HLCA    Dangjin, S.KOREA    Man in Korean at 1406

1116    4BC    Brisbane, AUSTRALIA weak, with Macquarie news at 1401

1188    JOKP    Kitami, JAPAN    Man in Japanese at 1503

1548    4QD    Emerald, AUSTRALIA    Talk by a woman at 1440

1566    HLAZ    Jeju, S.KOREA Man in Japanese at 1333.

Plus the regular Japanese on 594, 693, 747, 774, 828 at good levels

73,

[IRCA] TP 10 Dec Victoria version.

2018-12-10 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
As Colin noted, the lower band collapsed around 1500UT, not really to be heard 
from again.   There was certainly more action in the hour previous to 1500UT, 
but the morning monitoring here is limited to sunrise effects.

There was in fact a "sunrise" (20 minutes early) peak particularly above 
1550kHz, 15dB or so for HLAZ-1566, which took it from non-existent audio, to 
"barely there" audio.  



pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least 
briefly):

972 HLCA 1540UT, the exception to the general collapse of the mid to  lower 
band.  Takes a lot to hold this one down.





Reasonable audio at  times during the period (much of it understandable by a 
native speaker, though often battling with splash or noise):

the above passing through




not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could 
be understood by a native speaker: 

594 JOAK 1510UT

747 JOIB //828 1507UT

774 JOUB 1508UT; barely there audio during its sign off at 1540UT

945 CNR1 man in Chinese, much delayed from //6175, and barely holding its own 
with //1593; 1547UT; another mid bander that proved the exception, with this 
brief flurry of activity

1593 CNR1 man in Chinese peaking briefly 1534UT; weaker at 1547UT, when //945



Burbles in the splatter and noise (if lucky, language might be guessed at by 
cadence of talk, or parallel established by changes in talk or music) 


567 JOIK //594 1510UT

828 JOBB //747 1507UT

1287 man and woman, Japanese intonation 1548UT

1566 woman talking, Chinese? choral music 1535UT, very erratic fading, and 
problems with domestic splatter.




Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or ravaged 
by splatter)

 603 621 639 756 891 918 936 1143 1242 1323 1503  1557 1575 seemed to be Asian; 
576 1017 1098 seemed  to be DU  


best wishes,

Nick

Re: [IRCA] Loggings for DXWW

2018-12-10 Thread Brandon Jordan
I missed this part of the thread. No regrets yet! Thanks guys. Most of you make 
it easy enough I can do some creative ‘replace’ to get it all but then there 
are a few eclectic guys (looking at you Bruce, hi!) that are all over the place.

Thanks for supporting DXWW.

73,
Brandon

[IRCA] TP 10 Dec Victoria version.

2018-12-10 Thread R. Colin Newell
At 15:00 UTC the band looked pretty lively -

By the time I got out of the shower at 15:15, its wing tanks were vapour
and it was lining up a dead stick landing in an open field.

That said, 1566, 1575 and 1593 were in healthy audio -- a great example of
what the ionosphere can giveth can rightfully take away in a gesture.

If anyone was listening before 15:00 UTC - look at your SDR recordings -
there might have been some something-something...

Seasons greetings!
