North American Shortwave Pirate / Obama sound clips 6925 USB 0158 UTC 17 Oct

« on: October 17, 2012, 1216 UTC »

Noted here at 0158z, with Barack umming, hemming and hawing. "I've been able to do it... nothing" repeated several times.

Very strong signal.

Off at 0202z.

Back on around 0218-0222z.

I am not sure this is the same station logged at 0204z, as I heard no audio at that time.

About an S5 signal here, with a bit of fading, static, and some QRM.

Shortwave Broadcast / WWCR Spur 6970 2310 UTC

« on: October 16, 2012, 2323 UTC »

Heard in OM in American EE with either economic or political talk. This could be a spur from a US SWBC stn. Someone else heard it on IRC, so I don't think it was locally generated.

MW Loggings / WMCR 1620 1730 UTC McDaniel College Westminster MD

« on: October 13, 2012, 1744 UTC »

Not exactly DX, but this is something I have been hearing for a year or two, but until today never been able to positively ID. It's a college radio station, 8.5 miles away, that supposedly uses a 20 watt carrier current transmitter system.

North American Shortwave Pirate / Please read: format for logging message subject

« on: October 13, 2012, 1353 UTC »

When posting loggings, please include the station name, frequency, mode, and time and date you first started to hear the station in the subject. For example:

WMPR 6955 AM 0105 UTC 23 JAN 2013

Times should be in UTC, and frequencies in kHz. UNID stations should of course be logged as UNID. If you're replying to an UNID thread but know the station name (due to hearing an ID the original poster did not) please feel free to change the subject in your reply to reflect the station name. Board moderators may also change the original poster's message title from UNID to the station name, this is to make it more obvious what station was logged.

If at all possible, please a single space between the frequency and mode, and the time and UTC text.

Additional information in the subject, such as end time, is certainly welcome as well.

With the large number of loggings being posted, it is easy to have duplicate threads for the same broadcast, if the subject just contains the frequency. It is also more difficult for someone to locate a specific logging if the station name, frequency, and time are not included in the subject. Duplicate threads will be merged together.

Also note that this board is for loggings only. If your post isn't a logging, with frequency, time, and date, it should go elsewhere, probably in either the General or Huh? board. Off topic posts will be moved.

Thanks!
