Loggings - Scammander- 13/10/2021
Paul Blundell
We recently spent some time on the East Coast. I was able to get some radio time around 21:30 on the 13/10/2021 and logged these stations. Radio: Digitech AR-1733 / internal aerial.

A Surprise On 1512!
Paul B. Walker, Jr.
Not the 1 megawatt Saudi but.. I heard the 50KW Iran signal on 1512 in alaska at 1610UTC! Was running a jovial sounding talk show, matched to stream while Saudi was doing the Quran!

AM DX From Alaska
Paul B. Walker, Jr.
It was a good morning in my book. Had Sky Racing on 1314, for a new log. Also had 7LO 774 Melbourne for a new log. Had a few good spurts of 2NC 1233, a few VERY good spurts of 1116 4BH, a real good spurt of 4TAB 1008 and a brief but decent-ish gurgle from 1512 4RN Paul WalkerCC Skywave & 5" DeBock FSL Just east of the ass end of gods creation nowhere aka McGrath, Alaska

Hi CSA,
I would call that an excellent reception! You are in the null of their pattern to the northwest. Bill

Useful Tip For DXIng ABC Australia
Paul B. Walker, Jr.
Trying to get any ABC local radio or national stream to play on a phone or tablet can be tricky and it’s a bit hard to find sometimes.
Here is an ABC help desk page thqt lists a direct URL to just about any ABC Local or National station stream you could want. Clicking any link should get it to play right in your phone or tablets browser. It might want to download a playlist file on a PC, but it’ll load directly to the stream and not a website where you have to go hunting for the stream. The streams are between 24K and 48K so they don’t use a lot of bandwith Paul

Re: Question: Good reception or just average?
Hi CSA, As Paul says, I don't know your local conditions, but I can say (I am the proud owner of one of this) that the HDR-14 is a very capable receiver and enough sensitive to catch a MW signal 700 km away under the right conditions. Propagation is changing and have in mind that last night the solar CME hit the Earth and MW conditions were better than average. Probably also helped!

I do. But the station points it’s antenna SE at night. Basically the opposite direction of where I’m located. That, along with being only 5,000 watts seems like it would be difficult to capture with a small radio like the HDR-14, with no assist from a loop or other ancillary antenna.

Re: Question: Good reception or just average?

That is 725km. Without knowing the station and your local conditions/ band behaviour, I personally can't say. Do you normally hear stations out to that distance?
Quick question from the new guy: using a Sangean HDR-14, I heard WHP 580 tonight from metro Detroit. Looks like roughly 450 miles give or take. I believe it’s 5,000 watts. Good catch or just so so? Just tying to get a baseline. Thanks !

2NC 1233 Newcastle Heard In Alaska
Paul B. Walker, Jr.
From Sun Oct 10th at 1604UTC You hear a guy say "so and so, abc sport".. then the main anchor says "and thats.... ABC News".. and then a few seconds of dead air followed by what can semi clearly be heard as the weather forecast 2NC 1233 was one of the stations that interviewed a certain Alaskan radio nerd on the air last winter Audio: Paul Walker McGrath, Alaska

Knowing Your Dial Helps With Logs
Paul B. Walker, Jr.
2RN 1512 and 2NC 1233 (10kw Non Directional) Newcastle, NSW heard this morning slightly after 1600UTC in Alaska. Heard them both last winter and 2NC even interviewed me on air. Was tuned to 1548 4QD and hit 1512 and thought I heard rumbles of the same overnight show and knew 1512 was 2RN.. so went over to 1233 hoping I'd nab that ABC local and had something there as well that was identifiable. Being familiar with shows and what stations are where certainly helps. Paul
