[IRCA] Seoul AM Radio Listening Guide (Update)

["Chris Kadlec" <beaglebass@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For those who may have downloaded my Seoul AM Radio Listening Guide project (linked at the bottom), I uploaded an update of it recently, which includes the audio, map, and guide. The update should be the only one. It corrected a few tiny errors and some larger ones that I had noted but procrastinated.

612 Radio Taiwan International is included and 684 Kaesong, North Korea as well. Both stations have since gone off the air permanently, so the update turns out to be more of a historical one I suppose. The 612 clip had been misidentified as I had been unaware the station was there and was only on for a number of hours a night with very high power and hard to hear ID-wise with 603 slop from down the road, but a Chinese DXer corrected me on their very distinctive broadcast. 684 is included only in my groundwave log (and in the list by country and network near the end) though it was off the air more than 80% of the time over the course of a year, at least. It was //1080 before they turned off in December.

All updates aside, there will be new content related to that project in the upcoming month.

Fellow DXer Ryan Grabow and I talked about a video bandscan collaboration a whole year ago and it is finally coming to fruition. Not only that, but he has taken the initiative to put together a Seoul daytime video bandscan with my own extra audio clips that I had lying around. This wasn't originally planned, so it should be interesting releasing some new content (not to say it's all that fascinating honestly).

You can see his other video bandscans at his YouTube channel -- https://www.youtube.com/user/egrabow440/videos -- which will give an idea as to what this may end up looking like in the end. It should be nice for those who are stimulated more by the visual side of things.

My Seoul AM Radio Listening Guide project has been visited by 1,100 people in the past 7 weeks (slightly up from my predicted 30 visitors), some of them visiting every week, showing it must have some sort of database quality to it. I guess this is good.
