[IRCA] KSEY results - draft, please read and comment

[Chernos Saul <sauldx@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm prepping a report re the KSEY test. Can those of you who heard or tried and didn't hear it review the following for accuracy? Please feel free to add an observation or two if you wish.





HEARD:
 
Our most distant report (tentatively, until I receive a final tally)) comes from:
 
Allen Willie, NL Bristol's Hope – Four segments of Morse 
code.
 
Other reports:
 
Dave Hascall IN Indianapolis – Signal very poor with 
test tones and sweeps heard for ULR log #300. It’s Dave’s his farthest-ever 
graveyard catch, by four miles (beat 1230 Lakeland FL from 1991).
 
Wayne Heinen, CO Aurora – Heard nicely with sweep and 
off-hook phone tones and Morse code IDs.
 
Glenn Hauser, OK Enid – Sweep tones, off-hook signals, 
rapid beeps but no Morse code IDs. 
 
Bruce Winkelman, OK Tulsa – Sweep, off-hook and step 
tones, and Morse code IDs.
 
John Rieger, WI Milwaukee – Poor signal with sweeps but 
no code.
 
Tom Jasinski, IL Joliet – Sweep and staircase 
tones.
 
Bill Dvorak, WI Madison – Sweeps and Morse.
 
J.D. Stephens, AL - Sweeps and code.
 
AB Northwestern – not sure who – Colin 
Newell ???
 
Rick Dau, NE Omaha – Sweep and off-hook tones, code 
IDs.  “So loud is KSEY above 
everything else on the channel that I can still hear it in my headphones, which 
are sitting roughly 15 feet away from me as I’m typing this.”
 
James Niven, TX Austin – Sweep tones and Morse code. 
Sweeps very easy to hear. Morse code seemed down in the mud but could make it 
out.
 
TRIED BUT NOT HEARD
Shawn Axelrod, MB Winnipeg 
Bruce Portzer, WA Seattle
Allan Dunn, MA Gardner
Brett Saylor PA State College
Jim Renfrew NY Holley
John Sullivan, AZ San Tan 
Valley
