Re: [IRCA] Michigan DUs, Sept.22, 2018
Thanks Tim. That makes more sense, though it is interesting that you would hear 4QD on a north facing antenna, though I guess 4QD might still just be in the forward lobe of the DKaz. Perhaps it's just that the BOGs don't work as well "over the shoulder" at the higher frequencies. best wishes, Nick At 01:54 2018-09-23, Tim Tromp wrote: Nick, For low band DUs like this, my phased BOGs work best.

Re: [IRCA] Michigan DUs, Sept.22, 2018
Bruce Conti might be the one to ask about comparisons, but I don't know if he's on the list. We used both a Beverage and a DKaz in 2016 when I was at PEI, but I don't recall any formal comparisons being made. The Beverage initially had some noise ingress problems, so the DKaz was used more at first. I don't recall the DKaz being particularly deaf on the low band, but then TA's in PEI are a bit beefier than TPs on the west coast. Walt Salmaniw. was there also, perhaps he has better recollection. And, of course, there may well be files tucked away somewhere also. best wishes, Nick At 02:06 2018-09-23, Chuck Hutton wrote: Ditto for me.

Re: [IRCA] Michigan DUs, Sept.22, 2018
Chuck, in Masset, my go to antenna is ALWAYS the BOG. I'll frequently put up a DKAZ as well, but it's more of a niche antenna, aimed specifically to NZ/Australia compared to W BOG, but the signals received are nothing in comparison. Loads and loads more with the BOG, but not an exact A/B comparison due to different directions. 73, Walt On Sun, Sep 23, 2018 at 2:06 AM Chuck Hutton wrote: > Ditto for me.

[IRCA] Michigan DUs, Sept.22, 2018
Not a bad morning to chase DUs from the Midwest. 576, 594, 612, 702, 738 all in with weak audio. 612, 702 & 738 all with Sydney Roosters rugby match. 594 had a very faint trace of talk, and then a hint of music, but much too weak to make a comfortable match against the ABC podcast. 3WV seems very likely though. As usual, signals peaked during LSR at 11:32 UTC this morning and lasted until around 11:40 or so.
