Re: [IRCA] Halloween TP -early bird gets the worm gear...

[Bruce Portzer <bportzer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had somewhat the opposite happen here. It seemed like a routine 
morning at 1400 so I wandered off and did something else for a while. I 
came back to the radio just before 1500 and found the upper end of the 
band (which hasn't done squat all season) to be rather lively for a few 
minutes, with audio on 1467 1494 1503 1557 1593 and 1603, in addition to 
the usual 1566 and 1575. There were also carriers on several other 
channels (such as 1485) that may yield something after I go back through 
the SDR files.

By 1440 the Chinese stations had generally tanked, although some diehard Koreans on 603, 864 and 972 were still hanging around at weak levels.
