[HCDX] Morning DX report ...

[J999w@xxxxxxx]

Yippee! 

Heard my first transpacific carriers on medium wave. Using my Icom R71a and 
55 ft vertical I heard carriers (no audio) on 738, 846, 1017, and 1503khz. 
1503khz was the best, peaking at 0340cdt. 846 wasn't audible until 0420cdt and 
then only for about 10 minutes. 

Check out the audio clip of 1503 here (200k .wav file) :

Also checked other bands ... nobody on 160m, Alice Springs Australia was very 
good on 2310khz at 0400cdt ... gone by 0430cdt. Fair signal on 2325khz. 
LU6FFL in Argentina was working west coast on 75 meter ssb. Fair signal.

Still dark here now at 0500cdt, well before sunrise, nothing audible on 
2310khz and hets all done. Very suggestive of greyline DX.

Pretty good DX session. Going to bed, will tape 1690 through dawn.

73 !
