[IRCA] TA and TP DX Techniques



Hi All,
 
On behalf of my twin who lives in New York (hi)  and also myself,  I'd like to ask a few basic questions about DXing for TA's.
 
Are TA split frequencies the same as TP's? ex. 738, 747, 756 ...??
 
In addition to AM mode, on weaker TP's, I often use the sideband (LSB), a tight filter, ie 1.8, and tweek the passband offset to get clear audio. Is this technique reasonable, or is there a better way.  I believe that Patrick does this also- perhaps sometimes, but uses a different term for "passband".
 
What would be the top ten "first"  TA's to try for?
 
What time ET and UTC, should a DX'er begin trying for TA's and when should he give up? (hi)
 
Any other tips welcome...
 
Thanks and 73- Doug
