Unfortunately, in Victoria, like this morning with TPs, this evening
was a step down with TAs, with just carriers, not even the minimal
audio on 1215 was heard last night.

best wishes,
Nick

Yes, coming in armchair copy into Victoria, as well, at 05:20 UTC with
Christian Russian music. I can hear KKXA as well co-channel, but mostly
just barely. Sure sounding like the full 50,000 watts, and not 15 kW.

Hi Phil,

On a whim I pulled out a CCradio 2E and was stunned to find near-LOCAL
quality Russian talk on 1520!

The signal nulls for me in a NNE direction (est. 345-350 deg. bearing) from
Puyallup; that's actually *towards* Everett in general.

I first heard Russian talk at 7:45pm PST, but now at 7:58 it's Russian
language music.

OK, at the top of the hour I just heard "KQRR, Oregon City, Oregon" in
English, and then back into Russian with mentions of "Christiana" or
similar. I note this station is 15 kw nighttime.

I wonder why they are coming in so strong? They are nearly pegging the 2E's
signal meter indoors.

I haven't seen an answer so I will jump in.

Digital phasing has the advantage that the phase shift is independent of hardware and perfectly linear across the MW band, Slight changes to ferrite permeability are not a problem when you do the phase shift with a simple transform.

Recording 2 channels and phasing them post facto really doesn't require a different wav file for each channel. It does require that the PC software be able to locate the samples in each file that were sampled at the same time..

As far as your problems with finding time to play back files, I'll pass on that and view it as a generic problem that is not caused by phasing.
