A few more DU audios crept in, with a number of carriers quite close also.

Re: [IRCA] TP 7 Aug Victoria version (and into 8 Aug)
Nick, I checked out the band after dropping off my sister at the airport starting at 12:25 Aug 8, and sure enough the two best signals were from 1593 and 1503, presumably DU. Lower half of the band was kaput. 73, Walt Salmaniw, Victoria, BC On Sat, Aug 8, 2015 at 6:40 AM, Nick Hall-Patch wrote: > Probably a good morning on the coast...oh, wait > > Oddly, the hot part of the band here was the higher frequencies, not the > lower ones that Gary reported, and here things peaked by 1240UT, and were > pretty much done by 1300UT. > > ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com

Probably a good morning on the coast...oh, wait Oddly, the hot part of the band here was the higher frequencies, not the lower ones that Gary reported, and here things peaked by 1240UT, and were pretty much done by 1300UT. Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise): 738 likely Tahiti, Latin sounding pop vocals 1148UT, woman in FF 1201UT, sounded like Indian pop at 1242UT 1566 unID man DU English 1238UT, lots of numbers, with individuals' names, sports scores? Sometimes sounded excited enough to be live sports. Mentions of "tackles" points to rugger? This was one of the more regular channels, but darned if I could hear any ID while dipping through the half hour or so that it was fading up to readable levels. Didn't sound like 3NE, though a couple of mentions of Australia. Is the NZ here really Chinese? not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 891 man giving numbers in DU English, maybe 4TAB, but at 1239UT didn't seem //1539 1539 man carrying on in DU English, horse racing? 1239UT 1593 islandish pop music 1240UT 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) 1161 man talking DU English? 1222UT 1314 man talking 1232UT, DU English? 1386 Indian? vocal music 1236UT 1422 man talking DU English inflection, 1225UT 1503 female vocal pop music 1226UT 1611 woman talking 1235UT 1674 man talking 1242UT 1701 big hum, woman talking 1242UT Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter) 612 621 675 702 756 828 855 1116 1179 1206 1215 1278 1296 1323 1341 1467 1476 1512 1575 1629 1638 1665 1683 best wishes, Nick ___ ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com

A couple of Asian audios again today, along with old faithful, Tahiti. Not many carriers. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): it's not July, but Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise): 1566 HLAZ woman in JJ at 1234UT, brief peak, then faded down on choral mx; weak audio had been heard at 1120UT, woman talking, long before antenna pattern change. not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 738 Tahiti? Pop mx 1118UT 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) : 1287 JOHR? Man talking, then woman 1220UT, seemed like JJ inflection Strongish het, no or "near imaginary"audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter): 756 774 891 936 1008 best wishes, Nick ___ I ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com

A ton of carriers today, with a fair bit of audio, including a New Zealander that I think I haven't logged at home before. But then, there was that mystery on 972... pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): 738 Tahiti...vocal pop mx 1246UT, assumed to be this, as FF talk had been heard several times previous to this time Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise): 756 R. NZ National man and woman talking about reading 1241UT not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 531 man talking 1238UT, definitely not DU EE, then into Pacific Islands choral mx ; presumed PI radio. 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) : 279 man talking, RR inflection? 1132UT 567 man talking DU EE inflection 1207UT, hard to tell in splatter 603 slow vocal mx 1208UT, man talking, didn't seem DU EE, but NZ on this channel is Maori. Got stronger with Pacific Islands style chanting w/steel guitar 819 traces of DU EE talk by woman 1235UT 837 R. NZ National woman talking 1244UT //756 918 R. NZ National woman and man talking 1242UT //756; catch of the morning 972 woman talking 1147UT, then man and woman, quite aggressive sounding chat 1205UT, KK?? 1008 man talking, likely DU EE inflection 1226UT, but too much splash 1566 HLAZ traces of "What a Friend I Have in Jesus" 1230UT Strongish het, no or "near imaginary"audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter): 657 675 702 774 828 855 882 891 909 936 963 1026 1053 1179 1215 1287(SAH) 1458 1476 1503 best wishes, Nick ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
