Hi... you had a much better session than me. I could hardly make out anything through much 50/00 desense, being only 1/3mi SE of 23kW 1300-KAZN and 50kW 1430-KMRB this AM. I started checking around 14

Hehe I figured it wasn't quite as strong. ;) I have yet to log 590-VOCM at home, and being 7.7 miles east of 5kW IBOC 600-KOGO makes it even more difficult. Maybe the new PL-606 can do it, or would a

How's the signal? Is it moderately strong like this? Or is it only a fairly good signal like this one? BTW that's how strong KNX is received during the day on my PL-380 at home from 111 miles away. Fi

Hi all.... Is there one that regularly features members here? I've lurked some in #mwdx, and am thinking I'd prefer to IRC with DXers that are, so to speak, more my size. :) For example, they're using

Hi all. I'm near 34°6'57"N 118°4'42"W for the next couple days - should I attempt any TPs/TAs from here? Or, would the local QRM be too much for my PL-380 + SAT to handle? The coordinates given are on

Is it possible to use a 450kHz IF (or other frequency, preferably lower if possible) PLL radio's local oscillator to do something similar? I have a Panasonic RQ-SW20 and RQ-SW44V, both of which can be

Hi all.... I attempted reception of a couple more TAs. I didn't get what seemed as many fish biting as yesterday (although I have yet to have even one of those confirmed, an ominous sign), only hearin

About that 972 kHz station... at 3am PDT yesterday I heard the 3+1 TOH time signal that I thought was broadcast by the NHK stations. I happened to have the recorder running at the time, so IIRC it's a

One I forgot is 950-XEKAM. If you hear Spanish under KJR, it could be them. The FCC database is a bit confusing on this one, though. When giving the call, they'll often pronounce the "KAM" as if it we

Yes, Mexico uses the same spacing as the USA. Some "big guns" you may try for include, but are not limited to: (Power and DA are given for nighttime operation, taken from a FCC search. Daytime may be

I scanned the dial around 0145-0245 and heard a few hets in some places, and thought I may have heard a few carriers as well, but I don't know if I heard any audio, unless I missed it or my JVC Marshm

Hi all... I tuned around the dial this morning at around 1100, and recorded a few possible TPs, all using the PL-380 + SAT. First, I heard the 3+1 time pips on 972 kHz (recording starts at 1059). What

Did you have another radio available *cough*SRF-M37V*cough* so you could simultaneously check 1450-KSUH while monitoring 1476? Also while I don't see it in today's list, have you logged anything on 84

Thanks. Now if I can just find a ULR with which to hear them normally... Now that I've dug 594-JOAK out from under local 600-KOGO-HD, near 710-KSPN what TPs/DUs can you receive? ;) I would think with

Thanks for the confirmation, Gary. :) Local ~63/25 pest 600-KOGO-IBOC is 7.69mi (12.38km) away, heading 249.19°, blasting 501.99mV/m @ 1km toward me. Now, if only I could dredge up a DU on 612 or 585

I was attempting to chase it too (in my case at around ±1025 or so), but was mostly getting hets on the signals within 1 or 2 kHz of domestic frequencies, the majority of which (the domestics, unfortu

Hi all... What are these signals on my PL-380? Also what "officially"-recognized ultralight do I need in order to receive those signals as they were meant to be received? :) 2010-11-07 0005 UTC - 1400

On the G8, PL-380, and I think the other Tecsun DSP ultralights, after the light has turned off, press and hold the snooze/light button. It will immediately turn on, then after maybe a second OR a hal

Being on the west coast, getting up early can be an advantage, as I can catch stations from the east on daytime power/pattern while the ones to the north (I'm about 12 miles east of San Diego) are sti

What I'll do, if I don't feel like taking notes, is route the audio output of the ULR through a recorder (in my case the Zoom H2), then listen to the recorder's output live, and record the DX. Also, I
