[HCDX]: Time Signal Stations

["joe talbot" <n52w113@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

 Hello Everyone: Not a very popular DX topic, Time Signal Stations! But, a 
challenge, especially when it comes to finding  reliable information. I have 
found 3 web sites:

http://www.npl.co.uk/npl/ctm/time_trans.html

http://www.ac6v.com/pageam.html

http://www.iprimus.ca/~hepburnw/dx/time.htm

 Although, these site provide some information, the web masters could use 
some upgraded and accurate information! Could I ask our worldwide DX friends 
to do some monitoring in their home countries or contact station(s) in your 
country. Frequencies, callsigns, broadcast times and correct addresses are 
really needed. There appears to be a great deal of confusion regarding what 
stations(countries) are still on the air.
 Information on the following countries is sorely needed: I have recently 
heard stations from China, Hong Kong, India, Taiwan, Mexico(???). VRX60 Hong 
Kong QSLed with a nice full data letter and sent a massive schedule.
 I sent a report to a Indian station, the CE sent my report and tape back, 
the station moved to another government department. So, he hand made a 
cassette tape sized wooden box sent it back requesting I re-send it to the 
enclosed address for verification. Help like that you don't see often, 
today.
 Not all Time Signal Stations broadcast 24 hrs a day, some only minutes a 
day, or voice ID, 50% ID in slow CW, nor do they voice ID English!
 So, if we can pool our resources we can have another DX challenge, Time 
Signal Stations. I've found it a great challenge DXing Time Signal Stations. 
So, please if your at all interested E Mail me at n52w113@xxxxxxxxxxx I can 
forward the info to the Web Master's, crediting you, with the contribution 
of course! Anyone wanting the VRX60 Hong Kong schedule, please let me know, 
I will post it and others on HCDX, as I receive receive from reports. 73's.
