Box 501, Somersville, CT USA 06072 MIKE BUGAJ MBUGAJ@SNET.NET MERRY CHRISTMAS! 5 bar meter in display for HD. HD can be defeated thru button on remote. Audio is very good, Using inexpensive amplified speakers w/ sub-woofer. Has volume and mute on remote. Display is the same size and color as the Sangean, but can't be dimmed. Has similar info read-out too. Step-tunes with knob on unit, also on remote (.02 steps, 95.7,95.9,96.1 etc.). Direct entry on remote. Has seek and HD seek. 8 presets for AM and FM each into FM1, FM2, AM1,AM2 just like the Sangean. It has the look of a Sangean, but that's were it ends. Runs cold--draws only 3 watts! Can be rack mounted. Now for AM. Supplied loop is worthless. Used my small Radio Shack tunable loop and got good results. Lots of HD flashing from NYC, Boston, Philly, etc. Even got a decode of 1060 KYW Philly-3 bars on the meter. My opinion is that it is not for dxing. But used in a metro area or 20-25 miles from transmitters, it will satisfy the average listener. --Jim Pizzi, 15 miles east of Rochester NY Yes, Merry Christmas to everyone from the WTFDA staff! Hard to believe it’s already December. It seems that July was just yesterday. But December it is, and you can tell because the VUDs get thinner and the email list and the forums slow down as people go into hibernation for the winter months. Just remember that winter Es is possible. I remember watching XHRIO 2 up here during Es last February, so it can happen when you’re not expecting it. MEMBERS AND MORE This month we have one new WTFDA member and he is Earl Bronkar in Chillicothe, Ohio. Welcome Earl! We’ve received renewals during the period of 10/17 to 11/14 from Russell Lay (NC), Bill Harms (MD), Ed MacDonald (MO), John Adams (OR), David Wurl (WI), Marvin Shults (IL), Dave Dennett (AR) and Matt Sittel (NE). Thank you all for staying with us another year. AVION HD TUNER OUR COVER PHOTO Radio Shack was clearing out this one and selling it cheap, so Jim Pizzi bought one and reported on it. It’s okay, but nothing out of the ordinary. Here is Jim’s review: OK-I can't resist trying a new product (in my price range). Went to my local "Shack"- it is available at your local store. It's Clearance Priced--aka DISCONTINUED. $59.97+ tax. Compared with Sony XDR-F1HD and Sangean HDT-1X using APS-13 antenna and supplied dipole. Sensitivity: Just average or less, Overloads a lot, even when not pointed at locals. Use of supplied dipole on FM would be sufficient for non-DX use, still it had some overload in spots with dipole. Selectivity: Seems OK, but could be because of lack of sensitivity (compared to Sony/ Sangean). Hard to tell because of overloading. It even overloaded using a dipole antenna. My closest locals (50kw and others) are about 7 miles west; others 10 to 20 miles wnw and nw. RDS: Has some difficulty on Syracuse stations that were solid on control sets--Still sensitivity related. HD: Locals locked very quickly, semi locals up to 4-5 seconds (sensitivity again). A This month’s cover photo is an old TV/radio combo I saw at the Jewitt City Flea Market over the summer. We went back in November and it was still there. So, if you want it, you know where to find it. READ ABOUT SPe! Bob Cooper gives us an idea of how to spend the winter months: Jim Kennedy, amateur K6MIO/KH6 and retired manager for Project GONG (world monitoring network of sub-surface solar measurements) from 2000>2010 has created seven conference papers dealing with the magic of sporadic E (Es) and F layer in the VHF region. As of yesterday (11/22)for the first time all papers are available to read, download and print from www.bobcooper.tv. When there, look left to file list and click on KH6/K6MIO. There is no better tutorial on these subjects available anywhere. Bob Cooper in New Zealand That’s it for this month. Just a note there’s finally an updated membership list in this issue. Some will find it interesting! CU in Jan. 3 Douglas E.

The two new Victoria, BC DTVs are coowned. CKVU-DT-2 is a new station (that is, there is no associated analog facility) and the call letters are assumed, they aren't in the database yet. Right now CKVU-TV has only one relayer, with the calls CKVU-TV-1. The CBC's DTV permits in Ottawa and Québec City will "permanentize" their existing transitional transmitters in those two cities. The WINP callsign change in Pittsburgh is not (yet) official. Dennis noted a crawl running on TBN analog station K21FP Bakersfield. The crawl says many viewers who used to watch TBN on this LPTV station are now using cable or satellite. It asks viewers still watching the LPTV to write TBN HQ in Santa Ana, or call. TBN has also recently given away a number of LPTV permits. Draw your own conclusions...

Very unusual that there was no Es from July 5 to the 27th and none after that. Also, my McIntosh MR-78 went dead on June 29. I was fortunate to find a good repair store in Indianapolis and it’s working perfectly now. In the meantime, I used the late Bob Zent’s Carver TX-11. I’m sure Bob told me before his death at age 50, that he had modified his Carver. However, the selectivity is not as good as the MR-78. Bob gave me some of his $tereo equipment, as he knew his life would soon end because of cancer. It is digital of course, while my MR-78 is analog. The sensitivity of the Carver is equal to the McIntosh. Best states: TX – 339 – IN – 315 – OH – 290 – IL – 280 – MI – 203. Ed band total (88.1-91.9) now stands at 892. My best frequency is 88.1 with 81 logged. Everything is taped. Let’s hope next summer is better for Es. 73, Ralph Jeff Falconer - Clinton ON EN93fo Sangean HDT-1X, Sony XDR-F1HD, APS-13 at 22', 10db preamp New=Underlined New calls={XXXX} Time=ELT Distances=Miles Oct 03 Ms 1254 WGEX 97.3 Bainbridge GA Rock, RDS PS: WGEX 875 WHJB 107.1 {WMIM} 98.3 Greenburg Luna Pier PA MI "Classic Hits 107.1" 257 AC, "Monroe's best music mix - My 98-3", ex WTWR 166 93.7 Harrietta MI Wx, calls 207 98.3 98.3 Kiowa Boone KS IA ".Coyote Country." 992 Talk, RDS PI: 'KWPV' 632 North Muskegon Sault Sainte Marie Pickford Sault Sainte Marie MI ON MI ON "Muskegon's Classic Hits" 233 CBC Radio One, mono 246 C&W, "Big Country Hits", RDS 238 CBC Radio One, mono 246 Oct 04 Tr 1826 1904 Oct 08 Tr 2327 WKAD Oct 08 Ms 2344 2346 KQZQ KWQW Oct 09 Tr 0007 2339 2346 2355 WLCS 98.3 CBSM 89.5 WMKD 105.5 CBON18 88.1 Oct 10 Tr 0008 WSUE 101.3 0015 0018 WTHN CHAS 102.3 100.5 0028 0037 WSFP CJQM 88.5 104.3 0046 0100 WYSS CKNRt 99.5 94.1 Sault Sainte Marie MI Loud AC/DC tune, "Rock 101", taking requests 239 Sault Sainte Marie MI Good REL:AC, "102.3 The Promise FM" 238 Sault Sainte Marie ON Over CBBL with AC, promo for "Easy Rock Easy Money Contest" 248 Rust Township MI Weak REL:AC, "Smile FM", 480w 147 Sault Sainte Marie ON C&W, "Q-104", RDS PS: song/artist ON Q104, RDS PI: 'WVI' 248 Sault Sainte Marie MI AC, "Today's Hits Yes FM" 238 Elliot Lake ON Stn with C&W //CFRM-100.7, "The Island".

Some decent tropo could be found across the south on the 20 and 21 of November, with DXers in Kentucky and Illinois getting DTV decodes from as far as Texas. The Great Lakes region th experienced some active tropo conditions around the 10 of the month. Otherwise conditions have remained fairly quiet across the nation. We await any potential winter E-skip outbreaks. The winter Es openings have varied year-to-year in their occurrences (such as last winter’s main activity being at the beginning of February), but generally the period to watch is between December 15 and January 15. _________________________________________________________________________________________________ Bob Seybold 1865 W.

Topeka, Kansas 66605-3505 davepomeroy@sbcglobal.net Nick: A short report to let everybody know that I am OK and still watching DX now and then. Recent DX was in period November 10 to 13. A good tropo opening brought many Canadian analogs with stations seen on following channels: 2(2), 3, 4(2), 5, 6(2), 8(3), 9(2), 10(2), 11(2), 12(2), 13(2), 15, 16(2 including Barrie 16 for second time only), 18, 19, 20(2) including French on 20(?), 21, 22(2), 25, 27, 28, 29, 31, 40, 41, 42, 44(2), 47, 48, 51(2), 52, 53(2), 54, 55(2), 56, 57, 59, 60, 61, 64, 67, 68, 69. Hello Nick, For the most part tropo has been absent with the exception of October 25 when strong signals from Oklahoma and Texas came in that morning. Dallas-Ft. Worth stations are over 500 miles. Reception of WFAA8 is my most distant VHF tropo to date. Other than that it was Omaha, Wichita, etc. WDAF-34 is preparing to add channel 4.2 with the Tribune retro feed on January 1. Also, in Kansas City, KSMO-47 is promoting the "new channel 62," but isn't giving any on-air clues as to what that will be. Dave Also Canadian digital channels on 9, 11, 18, 20, 40, 44, and 64. Also a lot of US digitals, including Michigan 21, 25, 30, 40, 41, 44, 45, also other digitals (not including locals) on 3, 8, 10, 12, 13, 15, 16, 22, 24, 27, 28, 31, 46, 50, 51, 55, 56. Mostly New York, Erie, Ohio, and Indiana. Conditions peaked on Nov 11-12.

Recent November opening was really welcome but not surprising as conditions were ideal for opening. Best DX to all. _____________________________________________ Dennis Park Smith 3605 Sam Remo Drive Santa Barbara, CA 93105-2523 Tel: (805)687-7803 Times 24-hour PDT This report is for October 2010.
