[IRCA] TP for 30 Aug from Victoria, BC

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

A longer round of listening today, from 1220UT for about an hour.   Conditions were very erratic, and fairly heavily slanted towards Down Under, especially later, and it was often quite difficult to get bearings on  a signal.   Interestingly, 774 was the frequency to be, with both top strength signals this morning, JOUB at one point, 3LO at another, with 3LO being stronger earlier rather than later, not as one would expect.   

pretty darn good audio (at least briefly): 
774 JOUB at 1254UT
774 3LO at 1244UT

reasonable audios (though often battling w/splash or noise): 
576 possibly 2RN w/mx at 1310UT, no // available
702 2BL //774 at 1244UT
747 JOIB //774 at 1305UT, in JJ, so not Australia, which tended towards country mx at this time

not so reasonable audio, occasional words in splash or noise:  
189 the best LWBC RR
531 at 1313UT, pop mx "Light my Fire" by ?  First time this season anything heard here
594 JJ at 1252UT, but signs of (apparently) the Aussie a couple of times also (see 585 below)
828 NHK2 numerous times
963 think this might have been DU, no distinctive CRI chimes on the hour, but a real mess at 1300UT
972  finally a bit of audio to match the big carrier at 1308
1116 first sign of this at 1321UT
1575 at 1257, likely Thailand

Burbles in the splatter and noise:
153
234
279 all RR LWBC; 279 is weak these days
567 DU likely NZ
585 DU 1306, //with the second station on 594, countryish mx; 7RN is a pretty good catch here.
639 DU, island mx 1316UT
666 DU? at 1255
738  2NR //702 at 1313
756 DU direction at 1251
765 DU 1304UT likely NZ
846 1256 UT seemed Asiatic
954 at 1312UT, seemed DU
1134 two stations mixing at 1252. Asia?
1287 at 1248 JJ
1512 DU at 1320UT
1566 at 1305, best HLAZ could do riding the big carrier


Strongish het, no audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter):   (DU unless noted) 936,  1053 Asia,   1098, 1475 likely Malaysia




best wishes,

Nick
