I had to look for CBA DX test, as I don`t think I ever heard it here in OK.
I
monitored only at 0358-0406 UT, being especially attentive for signs of
sweeps,
tones or code IDs. As usual, 1070 dominated here by KNX, over rumble of
numerous other staitons. With KNX nulled, more rumble, KFTI Wichita
occasionally surfacing. No CBA. Rien.
I`m surprised that so many, even Canadians, were surprised that CBA
programming
was // CBE and other EDT zone stations. If you listen to CBC from all
zones as
I do frequently by webcast (the only way, as only CBW 990 occasionally
makes it
here but unreliably) you would know that.
For reasons best known to CBC, on Saturday and Sunday evenings the
NT/AT/ET
programming is simultaneous. Been that way for years. And so I have noted
for
years in the intro and listings on my Monitoring Reminders Calendar
http://www.worldofradio.com/calendar.html
THis means we have only 4 chances instead of 5 to catch each program.
But something has to give when they switch back to AT/NT being one hour
ahead
of ET programming around or after local midnight, not clear to me exactly
when.
As for the no-show, it would be interesting to find out what happened, if
anyone wants to talk about it. I still wonder if timezone confusion had
something to do with it. Arranging it STRICTLY in Universal time could
have
avoided that. 73, Glenn Hauser, Enid
