[IRCA] CYJM 1330 logged in IL
Tonite's sunset skip was basically a waste of time as stuff from the NW
didn't come in early enough. But with things being quite quiet I went out
later to check DX and noted CFSL 1190 really nice with C&W with just a
little phasing needed to wipe out WOWO. Hmmm..with things this good to SK
and with these BOGs aimed NW I had to try to see if I could finally (after
endless hours of trying) pull out CJYM.
Without phasing WYHI IN was all over 1330 but with phasing they are gone.
WLOL MN wasn't the big pest as is common and KWLO IA seemed semi dominant
and some of their songs could be called oldies. Anyhow with KWLO into ads
and fading there was other oldies in the mix..and then at
2229:30 CDT fading atop "Classic Hits 1330 CJYM"
This guy is from western SK so it is quite a distance from here. I tried for
the // on 1210 but with 250 w at night I expected nothing and as usual it
was KOKK on these antennas with WPHT phased out.
This Phased BOG System is nothing but 325 ft of wire on the ground across my
eastern field // 185 ft. The set up is very directive across the upper 40%
of the band. Longer is better for lower portions, but it is still effective
noting that this a similar setup is the only way I managed to log CKUA 580
last season.
