[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Chinese TP's for 10-30



   Yes, the Chinese wave continues to dominate TP-DXing sessions at this mediocre inland location, with lots of interesting signals still showing up 5 days after their breakthrough morning on October 25th.

    As Nick reported 837-China (Harbin?) was one of the top performers during sunrise enhancement, although this frequency in Hawaii was notorious for having two Chinese stations fighting it out each evening (usually along with NHK1). 936-China (Anhui?) also managed very good audio at times, as did 603-China and 639-CNR1. The CRI stations on 963, 1017 and 1044 took a while to get untracked but eventually showed up with S7 peaks around 1440, while 756-CNR1 and 1035-CNR1 both had good (mushy) signals at times. 603-HLSA, 864-HLKR and 972-HLCA also had several S9 peaks, although 603 was mostly dominated by China. 657-Pyongyang generally managed to hold off 657-China (Henan?) but there were times when both stations were at equal strength. Overall the session was another blast here, with the exceptional conditions during the past 5 days coming at a perfect time for final FSL antenna tweaking, waterproofing and testing prior to a Hawaii trip on Friday..After all the improvements the tiny 5" Frequent Flyer model even managed to track down some marginal 531 kHz audio here during the TA bonanza in Victoria last night (around 0440)-- quite a thrill!

936  China  Anhui?   Chinese male speech and interval music at very good strength at 1437  https://dreamcrafts.box.com/s/s2jcvcv1rf68m7qruf7vx9kspmikbctb
