[IRCA] Re: dig for those TPs

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

First, I'm very sorry to hear of Don E.'s death.  Like many long time 
members, I was welcomed to IRCA by Don in the 60's, back in the days of 
envelopes, stamps and letters,  and remember him from conventions long ago.

Although I don't believe he DX'ed in latter years, I hope he would have 
appreciated a DX-related tag to this e-mail....

In the last couple of weeks, I've noticed TP carriers hanging on long after 
local sunrise, and even recorded Korean pips on 972 in the noise at the top 
of the hour at 1600UT, well after LSR at 1450.  This morning, 1566 was 
still delivering a carrier at reasonable strength at 1730UT, and was still 
audible, though fading to noise,  20 minutes later when I sat down 
to  write this.

This sort of thing is observed at Beverage expeditions on the coast, but 
never at home before, using just a Flag antenna in a city back 
yard.   Anybody else noticing anything?

best wishes,

Nick
