[IRCA] 558-6WA on the Warpath (Until Silenced by Fiji)

For those interested, this was the overwhelming signal from the extreme long-range Australian 558-6WA (9,126 miles/ 14,687 km) from 1325-1328 on August 22nd at the new "Oz Hill" DU-DXing hotspot in Lincoln City, OR. The "Nightlife" ABC programming content (matched to the ABC website) is regarding Jerry Lee Lewis. 6WA does great until 558-Fiji shows up toward the end of the recording to silence it. This freakishly strong recording was made with a hot-rodded CC Skywave Ultralight and an 8 inch (20 cm) diameter FSL antenna (the "Richard Allen FSL" model). Such modest gear obviously is getting a turbo boost from the ocean side hill location.
