Re: [IRCA] Alberta TPs for 29 January 2017



Build the antennas so big they're physically threatening to the neighbors. Show them the rip-cord you can pull to 'accidentally' topple them into their yard.

Why I don't get out of bed for audio traces -

Sleep is more therapeutic.

On a QRM side bar, tracked down a huge source of daytime RFI to a neighbors solar array inverter that blasts the MW and HF spectrum with a buzz every 100 kHz or so.

We are very good neighbors and he was quite upset to discover that his house was the source of disruptive interference.

My attitude is: if neighbors are going to interfere with my hobby, I'm just going to build bigger and higher antennas.

A fair number of carriers today, with seemingly a mix of Asians and DU, though most were pretty weak. Audio was rather limited:


1116 4BC Brisbane, AUSTRALIA Traces of song by Lionel Richie at 1435. Confirmed on webstream..

1575    VOA    Thailand    Very weak, with bits of talk around 1455.


I didn't get a chance to report yesterday, but it was better, especially on the high end. Rather unusually, 1422 JORF was the top TP, but also had audio on several others.
