[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 1-30

[d1028gary@xxxxxxxxxxx]

A routine band check after some antenna work at 1230 turned into one of the more interesting TP-DX sessions lately. Asians were certainly on the warpath, with odd stations like 738-BEL2 and a presumed 936-Anhui managing audio in the predawn darkness, not to mention S9 signals from the likes of 594-JOAK, 747-JOIB and 972-HLCA. Lots of second-tier Asians managed audio from 1230-1430, including 531-JOQG, 558-HLQH, 603-HLSA, 657-Pyongyang, the CRI stations on 1017 and 1044, etc.,After setting up the 15" FSL antenna I was able to record some audio from the wild session, including these signals from Korea. 

603 HLSA Namyang, S. Korea Very good level pop music at 1525; the only TP seeming to get any kind of sunrise enhancement boost

657 Pyongyang B.S. Pyongyang, N. Korea Rapid-fire Korean male shouter at 1340; signal seemed to bail with increasing daylight

972 HLCA Dangjin, S. Korea Korean female pop music at S9 level at 1335; along with 594 and 747, the strongest TP's of the session
