Re: [IRCA] Alberta TP for 8 August 2017

Thanks for the Alberta TP report, Nigel. 

<<< This was on a 
beverage aimed more at Australia, but apparently all the DU DX was being 
sucked in by all that ferrite on the cliffs of Oregon. >>> 

I was thinking of you this morning, Nigel, when an S9 signal from a probable 585-2WEB showed up at the cliff. I recall David Sharp's comment (in 2011) that the only two reports he had ever received from North America (over a ten year period) had been from you and me. 

<<< 1035 Newstalk ZB Wellington, NEW ZEALAND 
Fair audio for a couple of minutes with a man reading news at 1202. No 
others with audio, but decent carriers on 702, 756, 882, 1026. >>> 

Nice catch, Nigel. Unfortunately there is some new IBOC station here on the coast (probably in California) that is ruining 1035-NZB's usual blowtorch signal. The only problem with the Oregon coast is that it's a little too close to California.

First DU audio of the month this morning: 


1035 Newstalk ZB Wellington, NEW ZEALAND 
Fair audio for a couple of minutes with a man reading news at 1202. No 
others with audio, but decent carriers on 702, 756, 882, 1026. 


This evening I checked an August 1st recording from my beverage site, 
and was quite surprised to find 774 JOUB with a fair to good signal just 
prior to 1100. Solid carriers on 693, 747, and traces of audio on 828. 
Nick had mentioned it was the best Asian morning of the new season, and 
apparently that applied here too. That's the earliest ever Asian 
logging here, beating the old mark by a couple of weeks. This was on a 
beverage aimed more at Australia, but apparently all the DU DX was being 
sucked in by all that ferrite on the cliffs of Oregon.
