Re: [IRCA] Tasmania into Michigan, Oct.23rd, 2018

Congratulations to Tim for a catch to remember. Is it true you now hum the ABC fanfare while going to work?

7RN is not normally strong even at the coast. This should go into the Hall of Fame along with Nigel's Coast Radio 1584 reception.


Yes Kaz, it's hit or miss as to whether you will hear pips from ABC. Maybe half the stations? I don't count on the pips but rather try to focus on the fanfare.

Congrats Tim!!! Gary, here in the upper Midwest we have somewhat of an
advantage for DU's as unless cx are extremely low A and K for a LONG LONG
time we don't have to worry about Japan/Korea/China etc making it thru the
AU zone.
Tim you may want to carefully check the spectrum and see if 2WEB's carrier
came up also on 585. It surpassed 7RN briefly when I logged 7RN last year.
But in repeated replays. I cannot be sure there was any mx from 2WEB.

To me it seems that some Aussie ABC or RN's use pips but many don't. Please
clarify west coast guys!

Yeah, stuff in really good cx can still be audible 15 minutes past LSR
here, but by 25 min past, fugetaboutit.

Tim, I hope you can nail down Tonga on 1017. Best ever here Monday and no
doubts.

Laura and I were out very late last night so slept in this morning. Deaths
in her family and especially her tiny dog that never left her presence for
10 years has my poor wife still in mourning so we make sure to try to sleep
as needed. Apologies to those awaiting me finishing the Mexican List.

73 KAZ
