[IRCA] Oklahoma TP DX 10/13/16

<<< John told me DU reception was possible here, especially around the equinoxes. He mentioned 5AN-891 should be one of the easiest. >>> 

Yes, I remember a Grayland DXpedition with John Bryant back in the summer of 2009, when he received 891-5AN on a barefoot Sony SRF-T615 while standing on the ocean beach. He told me that that single long-range reception was one of the most thrilling experiences that he had ever had in decades of DXing-- to receive a DU at 8,235 miles (13,252 km) on a radio the size of a cigarette lighter. So it's no wonder that he had an attachment to that particular Australian station, even if he may have never received it himself in Oklahoma because of 890-KTLR and WLS. 

73, Gary
