Re: [IRCA] TP from Masset for 26 March 2017

[Nicholas Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

Yes, the NHK s/off made it to Gabriola Island also.....including 1089 where
it caught me by surprise at 1535UT, as I was trying to figure out what the
"other" Chinese station was beyond CNR6 on that channel.  (actually, NHK2
has been signing off at 1440UT recently)    Interestingly, there were a lot
of Chinese here this morning, including multiples on a few channels.   945
was another.

And, it took forever to shut down....audios still popping up well after
1600UT, two hours after local sunrise.

As for TA's, just a weak carrier on 1215 last night, but this evening,
there was a nice audible carrier on 1215 30 minutes before local sunset at
0240UT....whether it will develop, who knows?  Also weak ones on 909 1053
and 1089.   Nothing on 1575 or 1503 though, too late in the season I guess.

best wishes,

Nick
