[IRCA] Domestic MWDX to Enid OK, February 26-March 3, 2016



--- Begin Message ---
All times and dates strictly UT [5 hours ahead of `ELT` during EST; when changing times one must also change the dates for events in the 00-05 UT period to the previous date by ELT].

Rx: mostly DX-398 with internal antenna only or PL-880; NRD-545 with ALA-330S inside E-W or inside randomwire N-S; Nissan stock caradio as specified; IC-R75 with E-W longwire; FRG-7 with NW-SE shortwire

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. 2748.99-USB, Feb 27 at 0146 UT, almost-human pleasant YL voice is referencing Environment Canada with marine weather, but as usual it`s tough to catch any location references, so assume it is the one scheduled to have started at 0140: VCS Halifax via Chebogue site.

2598-USB, Feb 27 at 0147 UT, can tell there is another Canadian Coast Guard transmission, but too weak under some utehash. Scheduled now is: VOK Labrador via Cartwright and/or Hopedale from 0137 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

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

** OKLAHOMA. 1020, Feb 27 at 1324 UT, KOKP Perry sports talk is undermodulated and hummy, so how is sibling station 1580, KOKB Blackwell? Also undermod but not hummy. Did not check 105.1 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1640, Feb 27 before 0200 UT, KZLS Enid-Hennessey-OKC nominal with some talkshow, but at 0216 UT retuneby, now in open carrier/dead air. With just a little manipulation of bandwidth and passband on the NRD-545, via the E-W ALA330S antenna, I have perfect copy of WTNI Biloxi MS (which is always audible as understation to KZLS at night), during a silly baseball game --- yes, baseball, for sure, on a Friday night in February. The Golden Eagles are a team, mentions having lost to New Orleans, Pensacola. Also refers to the Northwestern State Angels (?). We continue to suspect WTNI is running more than 1 kW night power most or all of the time. 

1640, Feb 27 at 0216, mixing with WTNI thru KZLS dead carrier, an English station plugging Jesus, presumably WSJP, EWTN in Sussex WI (one other religionist on 1640 is KDIA Vallejo CA, twice as far but 10/10 kW U2 rather than most X-banders, 10/1 kW U1; but KDIA night pattern nulls to the east, throwing most to the south and west) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

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

** U S A. 1100, Feb 29 at 1322 UT, gospel huxter in English, not Joplin since it`s north/south, which means it has to be KDRY Alamo Heights (San Antonio) TX, 11/1 kW U2; gone by 1327 UT. Its February sunrise was 1315 UT; March: 1245 UT. The only other N/S 1100 is a news/talk in Minnesota (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1480, March 3 at 0801 UT, series of gospel tunes starting with ``Put your hand in the hand``, still at 0820 UT as I am dozing off. This may be reactivated KBXD Dallas, which NRC DX News says finally came back on the air Feb 20. Needs further chex here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

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

UNIDENTIFIED. 1499.5 & 1500.5, Feb 28 at 0026, still hearing the wobbling tones on both sides equidistant from 1500 KSTP. Just measured them on the NRD-545, but not another attempt to DF them (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
