PDF's of the presentation documents should go online for the benefit of hobbyists around the world. Mark

If the collaborators on the Phasing talk could send me a draft of their presentation (PowerPoint or Word presumably), I would be happy to supply comments that could form an addendum. I would touch on

ZIZ is off, per Dave Marthouse on the NRC list: << I have an amateur radio friend who lives on St Kitts and he informed me a few weeks back that 555 was down. He didn't know what the reason was. Their

I have not noted 555 ZIZ St. Kitts lately, even when I use an north-null cardioid antenna that reduces pest 560 WGAN to the night levels of other stations on that channel (chiefly WFIL, WQAM, WHYN, an

How I relate to this are the enormous differences that I see in receptions from my home location in Billerica, MA (15 miles / 24 km NW of Boston, 15-20 miles inland on most TA bearings) versus Granite

Unless it's really auroral, Saudi Arabia 1521 is typically the strongest transatlantic here, and by a good margin. 2 megawatts from a coastal site on the Red Sea certainly gets the S-meter moving. Big

Allen, it sounds as though your new QTH is working out very well. Sort of a "DXpedition at home" site like that of Martin Hall in Clashmore (coastal northern Scotland) and Patrick Martin in Seaside, O

Algeria 549 is much stronger than 531 on this side too. It often overwhelms 550 (WDEV, YVKE, et al.) at local shore sites around sunset and a bit after. Mark Connelly, WA1ION Billerica, MA + South Yar

The 531 and 549 Algerians and the 621 Canaries station were very strong last night here, swamping the adjacent domestics on pretty much any radio tried. High end TA's were spotty, even on the Perseus

Besides Greenland and WGN, here are some other 720 kHz signals I have heard at various locations in eastern Massachusetts: VENEZUELA: YVQE, R. Oriente, Porlamar (common) CANARY ISLANDS: RNE R.5, Finca

Based on what I've heard here in metro-Boston, you should also be able to find WDOV-DE, KQV-PA, and WING-OH. Mark Connelly, WA1ION

Mexico City is fairly common at that time. Mark Connelly, WA1ION

Ireland on 252 longwave is fairly easy around here. Medium wave is tougher since the demise of "old reliable" RTE 567. There are no MW stations in the Irish Republic running what I would call "serious

Guido, I'm sure you'll do very well when you can get outside. That's one advantage of ultralights: you can take them anywhere - backyard, high-rise rooftop, park, beach, mountain, etc. For DXing in th

Welcome to the list Guido. Logs from Puerto Rico will be quite useful to those of us along the US East Coast, especially during auroral conditions when propagation tends to turn southerly and the Cari

Based on my 1977 trip to Ireland when I logged numerous US and Canadian stations on a Realistic 12-655 "TRF", I would say get started about an hour before local dawn. Interfering mainland European sta

Hi Russ. If they are terminated loops (like the Flag) you can have them closer if the cardioid single-null of each is 180 (or 90) degrees different from the other. If normal bidirectional loops, you'd

Many DXers are using the "Quantum Phaser" sold by RadioPlus. See "http://www.dxtools.com/Phaser.htm" for more information. Alternately there are several homebrew designs from the simple to the complex

In the '70s/early '80s the Urumqi transmitter was on the unique channel of 1525 and it was logged several times in autumn around sunset in the Cape Cod and metro-Boston coastal areas. Since going to 1

There is a DXpedition going on at Long Beach Island - Ship Bottom, NJ this weekend and I think things are wrapping up over at Cappahayden just down the coast a bit from you, Allen. 'Tis the season ...
