[IRCA] TA's, Victoria BC, 19 October

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

The best TA opening of the season saw a prior appointment on my 
calendar, and said, "tonight's the night".

Fortunately, the SDR and the DX Fishbarrel did some heavy lifting 
while I was out, plus, things hadn't quite died when I returned around 0450UT.

855 was the winner with  readable Spanish by two women 0532UT, 
http://www3.telus.net/public/shallpat/4all/855_20181019_053348b.wav
RNE, delayed about 45 seconds on their webstream.  This seemed to 
have better modulation than the various tentative UK stations, which 
didn't deliver much for quite strong carriers.

1089  possibly Talksport, 0153UT, man with a few words recognizable 
as English English, but also noted with similar talk at 0532, 0555 
and 0636-7UT also, though at time, "near imaginary" in the splash

1215 wispy bits of rock music 0507UT, and at 0637UT, man talking, 
possibly English.

1386 possibly Baltic Waves, with man talking to another man in 
possible Russian 0304UT, poor readability; unfortunately, wasn't 
around to chase parallel streams etc.

1458 rock music 0610UT, didn't sound as Indian as R. Lyca's stream, 
once I had found it, but Lyca were playing upbeat numbers also.  One to watch.

best wishes,

Nick
