MRHS stations KSM and K6KPH will be on the air for extended hours on New Year's Eve. All KSM HF frequencies will be active. We will also make a particular point of keeping 426kc active to give MF monitors a chance to copy us during night time winter hours. Announcements will be made on 500kc, then the MF transmitter will be switched to 426kc for the transmission. See: http://www.radiomarine.org/gallery/show?keyword=ksmstation&panel=pab1_2#pab1_2 for particulars of KSM. K6KPH will be an active participant in Straight Key Night as we have in the past. Multiple operators, including guest operators, will man the operating positions. If you'd like to join us please let me know. There's still space available. See: http://www.radiomarine.org/gallery/show?keyword=skn2012&panel=pab1_5#pab1_5 and http://www.radiomarine.org/gallery/show?keyword=K6KPH&panel=pab1_3#pab1_3 for information about K6KPH and Straight Key Night. QSLs and reception reports should be sent to: MRHS PO Box 392 Point Reyes Station, CA 94956 USA VY 73 and GL for the New Year, RD ================================= Richard Dillman, WPE2VT Chief Operator, Coast Station KSM Maritime Radio Historical Society http://www.radiomarine.org =================================

KSM and K6KPH Will Operate New Year's Eve

1980s FCC 33.7 MHz NE US Fire Department Call Signs - Pt. 1
Once every decade or so, global skip causes interest in identifying stations heard on the still-active low-band VHF fire department frequencies in the US. This can be a real research job, especially if licenses have expired.
Here's the first part of a really old list recently unearthed here. It's guaranteed that at least a few of these are still on-air. FC = Fire Company; FD = Fire Department; VFD = Volunteer Fire Department; VFC = Volunteer Fire Company; and Twp = Township.

Why Sorcerer Won't Be On My Next Computer
You might have heard of a multimode decoder program for Windows that's been making the rounds of the utility scene lately. It's called sorcerer, and it's apparently a crack of a larger commercial package once offered by a company that at the time was widely known in COMINT circles.
Everything about this program is scary. Most of the sites it's available on seem to offer the same referrers to a couple of Internet bad neighborhoods. I can't find any evidence that these sites or their referral pages plant malware on your computer, but neither do they screen their downloads. It's definitely enter at your own risk time.
Upon download, most anti-viruses will detect sorcerer's zip archive as a Trojan dropper and unceremoniously delete its contents. Not just Norton, which is notorious for false positives and heavy-handedness, but most other AV programs as well. Again, after writing an exception for my AV to allow examination of the zipfile, I can find no files in the archive or its unzipped directory that look like Trojan droppers.
Sorcerer is basically one opaque executable. Upon running, it does nothing scary. The interface is pretty minimal, compared to what was available in the original package. You get a clickable FFT amplitude plot (no spectrum waterfall) and a list of decoders for a large number of modes. A couple of parsers are available, but well short of the "hundreds" advertised for the commercial package. Obviously, some modules are missing.
Some of the decoders work rather well. Others don't seem to work at all. A couple are for modes that usually aren't available except in packages costing thousands of US dollars. These modes work, but I have found that there's not much here in California really worth copying with them.
Other decoders have issues. Either fax or HFDL consistently launches a rogue process that grabs 99% of CPU and has to be killed from the task window. I can't remember which one it is, and I have no desire to once again replicate the problem to find out.
At some later point following this discovery, after closing sorcerer, something corrupted my recycle bin. Web logs showed no visits to malware sites, and in fact I was browsing through Symantec for information on sorcerer at the time. A coded directory appeared in the bin matching one documented online as a malware hiding place.
The recycle bin is a popular place to conceal this sort of thing, since its file tree is hidden and hard to manipulate even when you find it. One must always view recycle bin corruption with suspicion. I got Windows to rebuild it, the unauthorized directory vanished, and all was OK again - for a time.
Fairly soon after, my computer began randomly locking up. It's getting kind of old, and there's about a 99.9% chance that the issue is caused by memory or other mainboard hardware approaching end of life. However, there remains, in my estimation, about a 0.1% chance that the appearance of the problem was not just coincidental to sorcerer's appearance on my machine.
I've ordered a new computer, but sorcerer will never be on it. It's not worth the worry.

HFDL System Table #48/ 30 Now Current
Yesterday, a discussion on the HFDL Yahoo group produced the intelligence that the frequencies were being changed in bunches. As a result, it was predicted that ARINC would soon change the system table again.
They did.
You know the drill. Fire up PC-HFDL right now, put it on a loud ground station, and leave it there until the system table is sent to an aircraft. It is done so in a special message type, and in 5 or 6 data packets. It is essential to receive all of these. After this happens, PC-HFDL will magically turn the numbers in the squitters back into frequencies.
The alternative is to get the new PCHFDL.DAT file online. An earlier post tells how to do this. Of course, since #47 has now gone the way of several others in the past weeks, that file has been removed from this column's web site. #48 will be posted whenever I get one that works.

US EAS Nationwide Test November 9
Release from US Government:
First Nationwide Test of the Emergency Alert System November 9 at 2pm EST
As part of their ongoing efforts to keep our country and communities safe during emergencies, the Federal Communications Commission and Federal Emergency Management Agency will conduct the first nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System (EAS). The EAS test plays a key role in ensuring the nation is prepared for all hazards, and that the U.S. public can receive critical and vital information, should it ever be needed. The first nationwide test will be conducted Wednesday, November 9 at 2 p.m. EDT. This test may last 30 seconds, and will be transmitted via television and radio stations within the U.S., including Alaska, Hawaii, the territories of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and American Samoa. Similar to local emergency alert system tests, an audio message will interrupt television and radio programming indicating: "This is a test." When the test is over, regular programming will resume. For more information about the nationwide Emergency Alert System test, please visit www.FEMA.gov and www.FCC.gov. On November 9 at 2 p.m. EDT, please remember: Don’t stress; it’s only a test.

PCHFDL.DAT File for System Table #47
This file has been used on this computer to successfully update two different versions of PC-HFDL to System Table #47. The numbers changed to frequencies on both.
I make no other guarantees, because it has not been tested on anyone else's machine. Use at your own risk. It won't hurt your computer, but it might not update PC-HFDL. It should be downloaded as a binary file, and saved anywhere convenient.
In order to use it, first close PC-HFDL. Find the PC-HFDL program directory, go to the folder named "configs," and rename the existing PCHFDL.DAT to something else. Copy this new one in, and rename it PCHFDL.DAT. Start PC-HFDL and pray. If frequencies appear instead of numbers, it worked.
If it didn't work, close PC-HFDL again, delete PCHFDL.DAT, and rename the old one back to that name. Then start PC-HFDL back up.
