[IRCA] Iceland 189 heard in Oklahoma.

2013-10-26 Thread Richard N. Allen
I'm hearing Iceland on 189 kHz since 0715 UTC.  Fair signal strength at times.  
Receiver: Tecsun PL-360 with DeBock 7.5-inch ferrite stick antenna.

New station and country for me.

Good DX.

Richard,

You are really tracking down those Longwave TA's with your hot-rodded PL-360 in 
Oklahoma. Congratulations on the reception of 189-Iceland, and the new country!

Your PL-360 7.5 Longwave plug-in loopstick is undoubtedly the most successful 
such antenna ever used for DXing on the planet. 

73, Gary

Gary:

I tuned to 189 kHz at 0715 GMT and was surprised to hear a man and woman 
talking in Icelandic.  The single finally faded out at 0815.  I never figured 
I'd ever hear Iceland after trying for several decades. 

The PL-360 with refinements such as your antenna is an amazing ultralight 
radio.  I only wish it had tighter selectivity allowing for reception of split 
frequencies, and audio quality like the little Sonys.

JOUB faded in on my barefoot PL-310 at 0857.  So, hopefully it will be a good 
morning for TP DX.

Have a good weekend.
