Over the past week I have decided to go back and revisit a lot of my good dx from the Gove Peninusla in the Northern Territory of Australia. One of the frustrating things has been I spent a lot of money sending out reports from this trip and so many stations never replied. So I am attempting to make email contact with a lot of the stations, put url links to box file tapes with better content.
DXing was done on the point near Yirrkala |
- 1270 KNDI Honolulu Hawaii - 10kw Distance 8046km . 0905 UTC on 25 June 2006.
- 1500 KUMU Honolulu Hawaii - (Now KHKA) 10kw Distance is 8045km. This was heard at 0905 UTC on 25 June 2006. The Hawaiian stations were at 63 degrees.
- 567 khz KGUM Agana, Guam 10kw. Distance 2977km received on 25 August 2006 at 17 degrees.
- 612 khz KUAM in Agana Guam. 10kw Distance 2977 km. Heard 1144 UTC on 25 June 2006.
- 810 khz Radio Republik Indonesia Maurake. Amazingly this is a groundwave daytime signal. The distance is 572 km at 44degrees. It was heard at about 11am local time in the Northern Territory. The station at this time is networking Jakarta // 765
- 1584 T8AA Palau - Power is 5 kw and distance here was 2185km. This recording is rare in the fact the Palau mostly plays back to back music. You have to be lucky to get talk. Here I was lucky enough to get an ID and Time check about 13 seconds in. You will hear that the station has terrible modulation
- 1098 V7AB Marshall Islands. 25kw and distance 4384km. Very hard to get clear ID from this but if you listen after the music you will hear a clear but weak V7AB then some announcements for transmissions. Almost sounded like a dx show. This was mixing with 4LG Longreach.
- 1449 V6AH Kolonia - Pohnpei - Micronesia. 10kw and 3186km at 49 degrees. Difficult to get an ID out of this. Not in this recording. Island music the female announcer introducing a talk about recent Tsunami and about terrorism in Indonesia and The Philippines. This station often takes Radio Australia and VOA feeds.
- 1440 JOWF Sapporo Japan. 50kw - 6169km. Japanese announcer. Mixing here with Philippines, probably DWDH. One of the easier to hear Japanese.
- 1053 JOAR Nagoya Japan. 50kw 5252km. One of my best Japanese recordings. Morning reception at 1858. Jap stations were generally at their best close to sunrise.
I will update this post with many more recordings. Keep checking back.
