International MW DXing with Ultralights
|
John H. Bryant <bjohnorcas@...>
I've gotten both Mark and Gary's comments/tips on TA and TP
DXing gathered together to make a tip sheet for us, but I sure would like
to add a similar section on Central and South American stations most
likely heard. I wonder if Mark, you would give us a similar list
there.... and maybe Rob Ross could add an inland perspective or
Kaz???
Then I'll make a PDF and put it on dxer.ca. THANKS! John B. |

wrote: Kaz??? John: Several Cuban stations can be heard on an ULR in northern Oklahoma almost every night. The best time seems to be in the hour after local sunset. Radio Rebelde 670, 710 and 1180 kHz. Radio Enciclopedia 530 kHz (easy listening music). Radio Musical 590 kHz (classical music). Radio Reloj 570 kHz. Radio Progresso 640 and 890 kHz. Radio Rebelde on 670 is the easiest to hear and it has a short wave parallel on 5025 kHz. I've also noted the time pips and CW ID of Radio Reloj recently on 790, 930 and 950 kHz. Maybe this will be helpful to other DXers in my region. Richard Allen. |

Thanks very much for that report on Cubans heard in the center of the country.... I'll definitely include that in the tip sheet. John B. At 10:48 AM 9/6/2008 +0000, you wrote: --- In ultralightdx@..., "John H. Bryant" |

A couple years ago I heard Radio Progresso on top of 900 khz - it was on the Sony 7600GR, but would have been heard on just about anything. That was a one-off, but shows that these signals do get through. I was just after local sunset, when things like that from the East seem to make there way out here. Kevin Richard, |

Yup! The SRF-59 was inside a passive loop, but RVC had taken the channel

I can hear Radio Reloj under WWL 870 almost every night.
Discovered them while listening to WWL's coverage of Gustav. Had never heard a RR outlet there before. 73 & Great DX, Steve N5WBI Houston TX |
