  • Dxpedition Report from Rose Spit, Haida Gwaii
    Rose Spit mini-DXpedition 11 July, 2011. Rose Spit loggings for 11 July, 2011: Medium Wave and Long Wave Here is a compilation of what I heard on an overnight DC only DXpedition to Rose Spit, about 25 km from the closest power lines, on the north east corner of Haida Gwaii. This spit is sandy, and covered in short grasses and strawberry plants, so ideal for remote DXpeditions, as it is accessible by 4x4 wheel drive vehicles. Conditions were not very good with the A index around 13, and K indices between 2 and 4, and solar flux at 90.6. The loggings below on MW are almost all from using a 750’ BOG aimed at New Zealand, unterminated. Here’s an aerial photo of the Spit. I was located just a few hundred meters past the tree line, in about the center of the spit, which faces N/NE. The larger photo below shows Rose Spit looking back to the West/South West to the treeline. Lot’s of room for BOGs! The figure below shows a view in the opposite direction down the spit to the N/NW where the 750’ BOGs were located. The NZ wire could have easily been double the distance. A more likely scenario for next time might be a phased BOG array towards NZ or dual Wellbrook delta loops. My wonderful DXpedition vehicle: A Nissan Frontier, 4 door, 4x4. Very comfortable, with a folding down front passenger seat, making a perfect platform for the radios and computer. Also a comfortable rear seat to sleep.

  • Youth and Sports News Reinforcing National Identity Brendan Reilly
    Rugby Nation: Youth and Sports News Reinforcing National Identity Brendan Reilly, Ara Institute of Canterbury, New Zealand Karen Neill, Ara Institute of Canterbury, New Zealand The Asian Conference on Media, Communication & Film 2017 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract News is an important area where the nation turns to, looking for an understanding of national and world events and to place it in a historical context. Arguably, the quality of this information can only be obtained when there is a diversity and plurality in media offerings. Modern commercial music radio is now in a state of disruption with increased competition from digital arenas, pressure to maintain financial performance and audience ratings. One method to keep audiences listening has been the service of providing sports news. With sports being a large part of the national psyche, and intimately tied into the historical identity of being a sports mad nation, what coverage are they presenting and what are the ramifications of this coverage in reinforcing a mythical national identity? An investigation into the diversity of sports news will be one avenue in which to examine whether news organisations are delivering a range of content that mirrors the range of sports being participated and excelled at locally and internationally. Looking at two youth radio stations over a similar month in 2013 and 2016, does their sports news coverage provide justification of assertions that they are providing a service for the public good? Cross media comparisons demonstrated the continuing history of marginalization of women’s sports and focus on just a few major sporting codes. Utilising agenda setting theory and content analysis, there may be unintended consequences of a limited service that reinforces the way the country sees itself.

    DXpedition to Grayland and Cape Disappointment June 10-16, 2005 John H. Bryant Receivers: Winradio 303EP Ten Tec HF-320 Motion 1400 Tablet Computer Locations and Antennas: June 10-11 June 12 June 13-16 Grayland Beach State Park Grayland Motel Cape Disappointment State Park 17’x65’ Porta-KAZ Various Beverages 17’x32’ Porta-Flag June is a wonderful month in America’s Pacific Northwest. Until late in the month, local public schools are still in session and tourist season has yet to begin, the Northwest’s famous rain has usually ceased for the summer months and the state parks and beaches of Washington and Oregon are both glorious and gloriously empty. My wife and I decided to take advantage of this happy circumstance and make a test run of our brand new mini- teardrop camping trailer and my new portable DXing rig. Now that our self-built second home is about complete out here, we have planned for over a year to begin traveling extensively throughout this beautiful area, largely camping at the wonderful state parks. Of course, I’ll campaign for all of our trips to be to coastal sites! Knowing that my room for DX equipment would be severely limited by our small trailer and car, I’ve spent the last year developing two portable single-turn loop antennas using 32-gage Teflon coated wire and flown from two masts created from inexpensive 20’ telescoping fishing rods in PVC pipe holders. My favorite of the two is a 17’x 65’ “Porta-KAZ” squashed delta loop, with the two fishing masts configured as an A frame and the KAZ antenna itself guying the A-frame from the front and back.
