[IRCA] Domestic MWDX to Enid OK, October 30-31, 2015

--- Begin Message --- 
NOTE: this interim report is to minimize any confusion about time conversion, the final roundup of logs made while DST was in effect. Next report on Nov 5 will cover Nov 1-5 standard time logs. Of course, there would be no confusion if everything were reported and published strictly in unchanging UT --- gh]

All times and dates strictly UT [4 hours ahead of `ELT` during DST; when changing times one must also change the dates for events in the 00-04 UT period to the previous date by ELT].

Rx: mostly DX-398 or PL-880 with internal antenna only; NRD-545 with ALA-330S inside or N-S random wire; Nissan stock caradio as specified; FRG-7 with E/W longwire as specified

These logs are excerpts from my daily all-band reports, mainly SWBC, also VHF/UHF, sometimes, utility, ham, which may be found in several archives without much delay, such as
http://www.hard-core-dx.com/index.php?topic=Hauser

And compiled weekly along with extensive news from many other individuals and publications in DX LISTENING DIGEST:

All my MW DX reports starting August 2011 are archived in this forum with open access:

These logs are in four sections, Canada [if any], Oklahoma [if any], rest of USA,Âunidentified [if any], separated by ======= Within each, they are in frequency order

** CANADA. 800, Oct 30 at 0034 UT, ad for Kehlwindows.com, weather in Celsius, but also 45F now, i.e. CKLW Windsor Ont. Vs KQCV OKC. Sometimes CKLW is there, sometimes not at all. It does have two different day & nite minor lobes to the southwest (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

================

** U S A. 790, Oct 30 at 0036 UT, ad for Hollywood-something, so could it be KABC already? No! Back to Springdale Junior High Football, i.e., usual nearby KURM Rogers AR. This is a Thursday night (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1060, Oct 30 at 0032 UT, mixing with the Mexican music presumably KXPL El Paso, is a station in English with a bunch of ads mentioning Arizona, including Albertson`s. Therefore it is KDUS, Tempe, 5000/500 watts U2, address in Guadalupe; a new one for me (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1560, Oct 30 at 0025 UT, fantasy sports discussion from Yahoo SR is blasting in S9+20 from the SSE/NNW, obviously KGOW Bellaire/Houston TX, still on day pattern to the NNE, and maybe day power of 46 instead of 15 kW night into the Gulf SSE --- which makes it a frequent DX catch in S America. 0026 UT ads for TIAA-CREF and Arizona State University (a legit school, trying for national online business, to outdo ``University of PhÅnix``) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

============

UNIDENTIFIED. 1660, Oct 30 at 0023 UT, ranchera music on east-west antenna briefly and then lost. I suppose it`s DKXOL Brigham City UT, as sunset there is about 5 minutes later. Since they are illegal, do they power down from 10 to 1 kW anyway? Maybe that would lower the fine. 

BTW, FCC is considering in an NPRM following thru on the original X-band rationale, i.e. turning off the <1600 kHz parent station; now which one was that? KXOL is not on the list since it is already ``deleted`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
