[IRCA] Cannon Beach OR TP loggings for 7 Oct 2012

[Walter Salmaniw <canswl@xxxxxxxxx>]

Rockwork, OR TP report for 7 October, 2012:  Down, but not out.  All Asia

As I had mentioned earlier, I got out to the Rockwork HWY 101 turn-off,
just south of Cannon Beach, OR at about 12:45 UTC.  On the way there, there
seemed to be some hets on split frequencies, but not as strong as yesterday
morning.    SF 98, A 4, K 1.  Note that minor geomagnetic  storms are
forecast for the next 24 hours reaching G1 levels, so perhaps this explains
the sub-par conditions this morning.

153 Radio Rossii at 6 level, // to 279 at 7 level

558:  HLQH, // to 603 at 14:15 in Korean

594:  JOAK at 9 level at 14:14, and again at 14:30.  Very strong!

603:  6 level  HLSA at 14:15, // to 7 level 558

639:  CNR 1 China at only 7 level this morning, compared to multiple echos
yesterday morning on same frequency at 8 to 9 level!

657:  9 level  North Korea at 14:13.  Very nice today!  Also at 8 level
earlier at 13:33

693:  JOAB Tokyo particularly strong today with English lessons at 14:13,
and still at 9 level at 14:29 with more English lessons.

738:  8 level  Taiwan Fisheries at 8 level, // to 1143 also at 8 level at
14:23, but not as strong as yesterday.

774:  JOUB Akita, at 9 level at 14:12.  By comparison, 747 was really
struggling with strong cochannel interference earlier this morning.

828:  JOBB Osaka.  Only 7.5 level today, compared to 9+ armchair yesterday!

837:  Strong station at 13:36.  Despite strength, I’m not sure who exactly
this is

846:  A difficult channel.  I’m seeing a carrier on 845.258, relatively
strong, as well as 3 carriers on 846.000, 845.987, and 846.010.  Not sure
whether the first channel is real, or something that’s  being generated
within my set-up.   Looks real to me.

864, 873:  Only threshold today.  873 was well heard (JOGB, Kumamoto)
yesterday.

891: Pretty strong, but seemingly very low modulation, so couldn’t tell for
sure who this was.  At 14:26

900 KNUI, Kahalui at very good level at 13:57, with some 910 splatter.

940:  KKNE Waipahu at 13:57 with All-Hawaiian music.  Very good 9 level
reception.

1008:  7 level at 14:09.  Still 6 to 7 at 14:34.  ? CNR1 or was this Taiwan?

1017, 1044, 1053:  all only 6 level

1134:  Presumed KBS, Kimpo at 14:24 7 level.

1143:  8 level Taiwan Fisheries at 14:23, // to 738

1287:  7 level JOHR, Sapporo  at 14:07, and still going at same level at
14:35.

1332:  6 level only

1566:  HLAZ at 7 level briefly at best today.



That wraps up my time in Cannon Beach.  I’m sure that Gary will have a lot
of interesting loggings when he comes down here in November!  73,  Walt
