HF Beacons / 1650 kHz "SAC" mystery 2217 UTC 10/28/2016
« on: October 28, 2016, 2222 UTC »
I don't even know where this log belongs, but here's an oddity.  Last night, 0340 UTC, hearing "SAC" repeated in morse code on 1650 kHz (yes, 1650 khz).  About 5 wpm, code heard above and below the broadcast station carriers +/- 400 Hz, easily audible on peaks and clearly visible on the SDR waterfall.  Sounds like a directional beacon, but 1650 kHz?  Conditions were heavily favoring the South last night and I suspect this was coming from the deep south.  Other MW DXers were catching it too from TX & AL.  Let's see if it's there again tonight.

EDIT: 2217 UTC, it's starting to fade in again right now tonight.

Anyone else hearing it?

110
Other / 1725.4 kHz UNID start/stop carrier 0040 UTC 10/11/2016
« on: October 11, 2016, 0044 UTC »
Not sure what this is and I've never seen this before in the 1720-1800 kHz band.  Carrier at 1724.4 kHz, 9 seconds on and 9 seconds off, repeating.  No apparent modulation and the carrier sounds a bit "fuzzy", so to speak.  Weak into Michigan but fairly strong on the east coast remotes.  Malfunctioning driftnet beacon?  I dunno!

« on: October 02, 2016, 1645 UTC »

580 WTAG Worcester, MA. - 1005 UTC 9/4/206 - Poor with FOX News at TOH and into "local weather brought to you by the New England Truck Solutions Weather Center" at 1005 UTC followed by W-T-A-G calls and WTAG.com mention, creeping into the back of the SW BOGs.


720 Radio Catolica Managua, Nicaragua - 0200 UTC 9/5/2016 - With Spanish religious music and YL talk backgrounding WGN's flamethrower signal. Weak but good enough to compare against their live webstream to confirm reception, on South D-KAZ during slight au cx. 


720 WVCC Hogansville, GA. - 0112 UTC 9/14/2016 - Thanks to a DX tip, daytimer on late way under dominant WGN with Larry Elder talk show // to WVCC webstream, on the South D-KAZ.

Checking the KRSV online stream later that night confirms their slogan is cut-off at the end. What should be "12-10 AM, Black Mountain Country" comes out as just "12-10 AM, Black." Fair off-frequency het also noted on 1210.14 (first noted here back in Jan. 2013 and still remains a mystery for me). On North D-KAZ.

1620 KYIZ Renton, WA. - 0215 UTC 9/25/2016 - Fair signal despite t-storm static with urban ac music with two songs easily // to their webstream, on the North D-KAZ. 


1580 WZKY Albemarle, NC. - 0343 UTC 9/3/206 - With CCR tune and other oldies, several "W-Z-K-Y" & "AM stereo" mentions during fade-up and mention of North Carolina during local weather forecast, on the South D-KAZ.

WQEU865 calls & Toledo mention given at 2321 UTC. On the South D-KAZ.


==================


1215 Absolute Radio, UK - 0010+ UTC 9/24/2016 - Best TA of the night with a fair and steady signal lasting for at least an hour with a great selection of modern rock and alternative music from The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Tears for Fears, Garbage, The Smiths, and even some Bob Marley at entertainment level at times.  Several "easy" IDs given and signal the best on the North D-KAZ.  Relog but good to hear them here again.

112
Signing on right now, S8-S9 into Michigan, very wide signal, sounding great!

113
I wasn't expecting this one at all and had my sights set on Latin Americans with the D-KAZ pointed towards the south.  Then I noticed some weak Middle Eastern TA carriers coming through at the high end of the band, so I reversed the antenna and aimed north and started dialing around.  917 is an oddball frequency and doesn't fit the usual 9 kHz spacing.  As far as I know, Nigeria is the only occupant on 917, and there it was on my waterfall showing some weak modulation patterns!  So a new log, and a new country, and completely unexpected:

Tip: this one is waayyy off-frequency making it easier to separate them from the others on-frequency.  Verified last night with a call letter ID and Braves-Brewers MLB.  Offset carrier present again tonight, not sure how long this has been going on but they really stand out on the SDR.

S6-S8 over the static with rock tune, suddenly off at 0115z.  Never caught an ID.

Presumed because I recognize their FM'ing modulation, with talk over music recognizable on good signal peaks.

The D-KAZ is giving me W807 to the South.  When I reverse the antenna and switch it to the North, W807 disappears completely and I get CHIM on 1710.

Sounds like dialog from a documentary concerning nuclear fallout - typically of the stuff I've heard in the past from W807.  I have them at 1710.088 for those interested in catching this one.  Weak as usual and just above the noise tonight.

Finally IDed this one as WQIZ337 from the Dayton area, about 250 miles to my southeast, with robo voiced YL, calls, and mentions of the Ohio DOT.  Very weak but mostly alone right now (skywave hasn't fully kicked into gear).  New TIS log!

Bram Stoker just signing on after R.A. interval signal, S5 with the summer static..

Signed on a few minutes ago with interval signal and mention of "clandestine broadcast".  Now running oldies, nice audio again tonight, S5-S6.
