Re: [IRCA] NEW TIS
Thanks Pete,
This was an easy catch here in Puyallup (WA) on a stock Tecsun PL-300WT,
and an 8' passive loop (with a PVC frame) in my back yard. It was booming in
with the loop, but inaudible with just the stock PL-300WT.
Normally 540 kHz is a dicey frequency here in Puyallup because of images
from local KSUH-1450 on the frequency, which dominate on the Eton E100,
C.Crane SWP and other 455 kHz IF portables. The new PL-300WT has apparently
solved the AM image issue completely, with no trace of locals anywhere except
on their assigned frequencies. Its DSP-enhanced selectivity also makes it
great to use with high-gain external antennas, which tend to overload
portables of lesser quality.
73, Gary

Subsequently heard 20 miles north of Seattle; after that, heard all
the way down I-5 to 348th St. and from there all the way home to NE
Tacoma. It is readable in my driveway. This is one of the most potent
TIS outlets I have ever noted. Burien is next to SeaTac both
physically and on the dial (530). Short squibs about city activities
and frequent stand-alone IDs.
Pat, Steve and Gary, you might shoot for this one.
