[IRCA] Yesterday's LW TA's

[Nigel Pimblett <ntp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Only in my case, TA's mean Trans-Arctic!

 Was quite surprised to hear Norway on 153 khz with a good signal at 1418 
UTC on 19 Dec with a program of Christmas music.   Also noted the Russian 
on 162 khz (likely Norilsk, as it was audible hear last year for about two 
weeks around the solstice) though not as strong.    I also noted an 
interesting carrier on 1314 at the time.  I was hearing Australian 
carriers, but only on the regular channels, and that's not typically a 
frequency I hear much on from over the Pacific, so the possibility exists 
it could have been from Norway, though I'm afraid I'll never know for sure.

In general, LW reception has been inferior to last year, when Iceland was 
hear pretty well daily, with others making regular appearances.  This year 
Norway is generally the best LW signal, when I'm hearing anything.
