[HCDX] Nice domestic DX log from this saturday afternoon

[aurel chiochiu <acq@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello to all of you !

I have been very buzzy burning CDs and going out with a friend in the downtown Montreal areas, as well as with my parents so I didn`t have time to mention this log that I made on the car-radio, the past saturday afternoon:

1320 CKEC, New Glasgow, NS OCT 11 1753 - playing I Shut The Sherif (But I`ll Better Shut The Deputee) followed by man talk w/ ment. of "New Glasgow, Nova Scotia" followed by ads, one of them for a Canadian cancer association and several IDs. Then back to the oldies program. Very huge signal, way over both CJMR and WTAR. First time that it is noted with a decent and really listenable signal and reception on the car-radio wich omni-directionnal can`t null WTAR to make CJMR the only source of QRM like my old Sanyo did and will have done. (Chiochiu-QC)

Also a note for the FM DX`ers and enthousiasts, this Monday on the Thanks Giving Day we went to Cornwall where we could get locals, semi-locals and tropo-scatter FM
on almost all the channels. The best catches are WIZN The Wizard from Vergennes, VT in the Platsburg-Burlington Market and CBC Radio 1 on 107.5 from Kingston.
Locals were noted on 94.7, 96.3, 97.3, 102.9 and 104.5 and probably 1 or 2 other frequencies I didn`t checked with attention. Then in the end of the morning, we drived back to Montreal, into the south-eastern corner of the island, in the Hochelaga-Maisonneuve quarter. There we walked outside a very, very little bit and we eated something from McDonald in the car while listening to CFXM M105 from Grandby, a nice semi-local that is completely blocked by CJLA Lachute here in Pierrefonds. They played a lot of great songs, several of them from the 80`s. My favorite song wich they played was Time (Clock of the Heart) by Boy George and Culture Club wich I burned on my last CD. Another great 80`s song that I knew since a long time and that I founded on the Internet was Automatic by the Pointer Sisters. A very great tune that until yesturday I didn`t know wich artist performed it. Extremely great happy and rhythmic 80`s funky music with a sad atmosphere !

Well, that`s for now !
73 and good DX,
Bogdan Chiochiu
