Hi everyone, sorry for the multiple posts last
night. All my roadrunner
posts were proliferating as endless duplicate
messages, and I still can't
stop it. Roadrunner says, "not us", and
Microsoft (Outlook) says "we no
longer service XP owners (but we'll solve it
for you for $99)", so I'm using
Yahoo for the moment. I get e-mail fine,
just can't send it out on
Roadrunner.
This was an incredible night,
and lot of might-have-beens because my Perseus
won't function with my new
Windows 7 laptop. So these loggings were done
the old fashioned way, by
spinning the dial.
FEB 27
0510z On getting Barry's tip
(thanks!), and with my Kaz coax retrieved
from the snow piles earlier in the
day a quick run through the top of the
band gave 1557 France (relog), 1575 I
initially called this "Italy", but now
I'm not so sure with such a pipeline
into Spain. There were two stations on
1575 but when I went back there was
barely anything. I've previously logged
Spain and Italy on 1575. 1584 also
had a signal - possibly much wanted
Radio Ole, but on my return there wasn't
much there.
0513z 1521 SPAIN SER Castello "Cadena SER" ID,
// to web
audio vis Delicast. I went right past this the first time
figuring it was
the usual Saudi, and even reported it as such last night.
But when I passed
it by again it was Spanish, and simply smashing through
WWKB 1520 in nearby
Buffalo. I don't expect to see this one any time soon.
NEW.
0515z 1602 SPAIN Radio Vitoria, Vitoria SER, I figured,
but not
//, so I found Radio Vitoria on Delicast, and voila, that was it,
about ten
seconds delayed on the web audio. The TA pipeline seems aimed at
Baque
country and Galicia. Very good signal. NEW.
0517z 1476
SPAIN Euzkadi Irratia Donosti Man and woman
speaking, electronic
music at tune-in, // to web audio via Delicast. I
listened to this one the
most and noted a "Euzkadi Irratia Noticias" after
4+1 pips at 0600. While
it sounded Spanish in its cadences, it was odd, so
most likely Basque
language or "Basquish" that I was hearing. NEW.
0025 1539 SPAIN
SER Manresa and Elx synchros // to web audio
via Delicast, slight echo
noted, so I heard both of them, I suppose, but I
seem to recall from
Newfoundland that Elx has been noted with separate
programming - though this
recollection may be be way out of date. NEW.
0034z 1485 SPAIN
SER synchros // web audio via Delicast.
Very weak.
NEW.
0035z 1413 SPAIN RNE synchros presumed, very weak,
previously
logged..
0036z 1386 SPAIN Euzkadi Irratia
Bilbao // 1476, though much
weaker. NEW.
0038z 1314
SPAIN RNE synchros // RNE web audio via Delicast.
NEW.
0039z 1287 SPAIN SER synchros // 1521.
NEW.
0039z 1206 FRANCE noted in passing, relog.
0040z
1152 SPAIN RNE synchros Spanish noted in passing,
relog.
0041z 1143 SPAIN COPE synchros Spanish // web
audio via
Delicast and 1134. NEW.
0041z 1134 SPAIN COPE
synchros Spanish // web audio via
Delicast and 1143,
relog.
0044z 1107 SPAIN RNE synchros Spanish, fairly
strong, none of
the off-channel het heard in recent years,
relog.
0045z 1089 UK TalkSPort synchros
weak
0045z 999 SPAIN COPE Madrid Spanish, COPE presumed,
relog so
I moved on.
0045z 990 UNID SPAIN? My local 990
was missing or beaten down by
Montreal and possibly Spain.
Not much
else to dig into after this. But nine new TAs in one night is a
unique
experience here. Though every one of these is a pest in
Newfoundland!
Notable in their absence: 909, 855 from Spain, and 945
and 1377 from
France. I guess the best stuff was at the upper range. I
still can't get
over the powerful signal on 1521. Not only do I have WWKB
1520, but WASB
1590 (I can see their tower light from my house) puts out a
nasty spur
around 1521.
