Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 10-10

I didn't quite follow this.


(1) A receiver to the east was mentioned, but the example is a receiver to the west.

(2) which sunset is being referred to? Rx or tx?


And to toss in my opinion (sorry, no scientific facts),   a previous post mentioned that enhancement at the receiver;s local sunbrise can be zero, some or a lot. True, but (assuming there are not propagation issues interfering with reception) I very rarely see little or no enhancement at LSR. I count on a healthy rise in signals. That's 100% based on coastal experience.

Hi Chris,

Gary's answer is quite correct, and similar boosts occur around
sunset when the receiver is to the east of a transmitter on the other
side of the ocean.   Japanese DXers have heard Argentina on 1030
around Japanese sunset for example, and I'm sure Mark Connelly and
others can relate large amounts of DX heard in the eastern USA and
Canada in that situation.

Nick
