[IRCA] Two new catches last week at Burnt River ON

[Chernos Saul <sauldx@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Was at Burnt River ON for close to a week, returned hom Saturday.

 

Not much activity on AM, as conditions were mostly down, but did log two new catches. Also tried iout the new Tecsun PL-380, which Gary very kindly modified with the ferrite bar antenna. Logged one new one on that. Nice nulls, but as propagation was flat I did not get to work it under anything close to interesting conditions.

 

Both from Wednesday's sunset (immediately post-sunset from my post):

 

1490 WOHI OH East Liverpool - Wed 14 Apr 2030 – "The Pickle WPKL", weather, PA address and 724 area code in ads. New to Burnt River ON, heard on AOR7030+ on temporary south wire and on Tecsun 380 ultralight radio modified with ferrite antenna. New. (SC-BR)

 

1410 WSHY IN Lafayette – Wed 14 Apr 2144 – Bob FM jingle in apparent promo. Sister station WBPE 95.3 is Bob FM. Heard on AOR7030+ on temporary south wire. I did figure out who this was until this afternoon. New. (SC-BR)

 

I'm looking forward to a decent FM and TV e-skip and tropo season, though I will keep an eye on cx without bothering to roll out the wires. The Tecsun will make this an easy thing to do.
