Re: [IRCA] My First TP AM DX Logs!



Paul, congratulations on your TP receptions and videos! 

<<< 1323: your best catch. Should be NHK1. There are many repeaters with 
either 0.1 or 1 kW. Often, all we get is CRI in Russian here. >>> 

Walt, I'm not sure I agree with you about Paul's strong 1323 recording (and video) being in Japanese. It sounds more like Mandarin Chinese to me. I can forward it to a translator to make sure, if necessary. 

73, Gary

Paul, nice recordings! You simply need to download the Pacific Asia List 
(this is a LW and MW list, now maintained by our own Bruce Portzer from 
Seattle). This will help you with the stations and proper frequencies. 
You seem to have a good pathway to Japan. This is not surprising, as I 
also receive Japan with thunderous signals in Masset. I'd be interested in 
hearing the difference closer to dawn, and after dawn. This is when I hear 
everything at it's strongest, with much less local station splatter. Here 
is what you heard: 

693: JOAB Tokyo 500 kW NHK2 station, so very easy to check for the many 
// frequencies. 
954: JOKR Tokyo 100 kW 
1134: presumed JOQR Tokyo 100 kW (although I always have trouble 
differentiating it with cochannel HLKC Kimpo with 250/500 kW in Korean) 
1188: presumed JOKP Kitami (on Hokkaido, the most northern Japanese 
Island) 10 kW with NHK1 network. Again, lots and lots of // including the 
flagship 594 kHz. (there's a cochannel Korean from Seoul HLKX with 100 kW) 
1323: your best catch. Should be NHK1. There are many repeaters with 
either 0.1 or 1 kW. Often, all we get is CRI in Russian here. 

You'll notice that many Japanese stations, especially the private ones, 
have a typical "sing-song" style with young female DJs. Very 
characteristic.
