Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 12-18 (Preliminary)
I suspect that some of the "second tier" Japanese advantage in
Victoria is on the second go round with the SDR files, Gary. A
better comparison would be with what Colin hears live with no
wideband recording to back him up.
Even going through SDR files has rarely dug out Chinese as good as
heard in Puyallup or Seattle (after accounting for local splash in
those more southerly sites)
This season has been pretty extraordinary here for most East
Asians. Even so, my 18th December report had nothing that was the
strength of your recordings of China, Korea, and Taiwan on those
particular stations. I don't think that I even reported a carrier on
756, though I might have been able to find one with dedicated combing
of the SDR files.
Now, DUs....no argument Victoria is better, as the Olympic Peninsula
has nothing like the impact here that it does on paths to Puget Sound.
best wishes,
Nick

I agree, Colin, but there is a mysterious propagation preference
that some places seem to display, that can't really be explained by
these factors. The Rockwork cliff in Oregon has always had an
overwhelming preference for New Zealand signals, despite the fact
that the Australian bearing isn't too far different. Victoria is far
superior to Puyallup as a TP-DXing location, but Victoria seems to
have a preference for second tier Japanese signals, whereas Puyallup
tends to break toward the Chinese on similar days. Weird!
