That article kinda makes it sound like the wildfires are threatening just
Emmis, which we know isn't true.

I guess I was spoiled by the better than normal TP reception over the last
week to ten days. This morning beat yesterday's virtual washout, but it was
quite ho-hum nevertheless.
-------------
738 TAHITI weak audio at 1246, then fair to good at 1258 with French talk by
woman
747 JAPAN JOIB Sapporo, weak to fair at 1246 with Japanese talk
972 UNIDENTIFIED - weak signal of a male announcer just above threshold at
1249; probably HLCA South Korea
1053 NORTH KOREA - jammer transmission at a good level 1250; no sign of
South Korea's V. of Natl. Salvation co-channel station.
------------
I checked the files past 1300 to 1330, but found no other TP DX for this
morning.

Looks like fire may be between the Observatory and the Tower site. This
is too close! I'm not sure what the distance is between the two areas
but I think that the Observatory may be in more danger than the towers.
Here is a Mt. Wilson blog:
http://www.mtwilson.edu/fire.php
Last hour they said that it may be slightly improving but not according
to the webcam. Good luck!

Hey Matt:
I wonder if the heavy smoke that I am now seeing (between the webcam's
150' tower and the broadcast compound) are backfires. This is the
closest "plume" that I have seen.

Weather conditions today are drastically improved to recent
days...humidity has come up dramatically and there have even been a few
showers in the area. I can see the mountain from my window here, and
there is definitely something going on, primarily on the northeast side
of the peak. I have heard that they've been setting backfires and doing
protection of the mountain. If crews are indeed still up there, I think
much, if not all of it, can survive without too much trouble. But,
there's never a sure thing in these situations.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"
Hello All,
During the Grayland DXpedition on August 30th, a foreign language station
presumed to be 531-PI in Auckland, New Zealand was recorded at 1320 UTC,
mixing with the notorious "no-ID" Australian pop-music station (presumed to be
4KZ, according to a tip from Leigh Donaldson). The foreign language is
certainly not one of the Asian groups, and is presumably a Pacific Island
dialect.
If any of the New Zealand or Australian DXers in the Ultralightdx Yahoo
group (or any other DXers) could take a listen to the MP3 and possibly
identify the announcer's voice or the language, it would be most appreciated. 531
kHz has always been a "fiasco frequency" during my summer Grayland trips,
with at least three UnID DU's having been heard this summer. Thanks!

Word I'm hearing is that the smoke being seen on the webcam is from
backfires being set on or near observatory property by firefighters.
The director of the observatory was interviewed on NPR earlier this
hour, and he said things have actually improved considerably up there
during the course of the day today. He says fire crews were pulled off
the mountain yesterday for fear that they'd be trapped up there, but
that they were brought back in around noon, PT, today.
I'm also hearing word that KRTH 101.1 has switched from Wilson to its
aux transmitter in the Verdugo Mountains between Glendale and Burbank.
Speculation is that they may have a clogged air filter in their
transmitter from all the smoke...but keep in mind that it's almost ALL
speculation now, since nobody from the stations or the observatory is up
on the mountain, and won't be for a while yet.

Right under the web cam picture is says this "Note: the large amount of new smoke seen is due to backfires set by firefighters. This is the very best thing to do at the moment.
is also says that for updates about Mt. Wilson you can go to www.mtwilson.edu/fire.php
