Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] 1610 Tester this morning

[Mike Hardester <DX4EVR@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

         At 1550 ELT, carrier detected on both 
1610.0 and 1610.7 kHz, but weak to fair. Tried 
several times after local sunset, but nothing.

         The FCC Files reflect the following stations (North America) on 1610:

CFOS       AM 1610 kHz ND1  Daytime         C C 
-    COLLINGWOOD              ON 
CA       ---                1.0   kW 

CFOS       AM 1610 kHz ND1  Nighttime       C C 
-    COLLINGWOOD              ON 
CA       ---                1.0   kW 


NEW        AM 1610 kHz ND1  Daytime         C C 
-    MONTREAL                 QC 
CA       ---                1.0   kW 

NEW        AM 1610 kHz ND1  Nighttime       C C 
-    MONTREAL                 QC 
CA       ---                1.0   kW 


NEW        AM 1610 kHz ND1  Daytime         C C 
-    TORONTO                  ON 
CA       ---                1.0   kW 

NEW        AM 1610 kHz ND1  Nighttime       C C 
-    TORONTO                  ON 
CA       ---                1.0   kW 


CHHA       AM 1610 kHz ND1  Daytime         C C 
-    TORONTO                  ON 
CA       ---                1.0   kW 

CHHA       AM 1610 kHz ND1  Nighttime       C C 
-    TORONTO                  ON 
CA       ---                1.0   kW

         Depending on the power and propagation, 
400w at night is feasible....daytime, I'm not so 
certain. The reference which I made yesterday

      "This is a shot in the dark, but what about 
an experimental station working on antenna 
designs for Homeland Security? Go to the below 
link and for call sign, enter  WC2XKX

http://svartifoss2.fcc.gov/reports/index.cfm";

may still be possible: if you're trying to find 
an optimum antenna/coverage for the federal 
government, FCC rules mean nothing. Trust me on 
this one. Meanwhile, lets keep the DFs coming.
