In between patients at my medical clinic, I'm
following this interesting thread. Living on the west coast, I've been
very interested in TP dx, and since last fall/winter TA (or more accurately
trans-polar) dx. Indeed there were a number of evenings that I monitored
up to 30 TA hets, and audio on up to 6 or so (this all from an urban environment
using a K9AY Wellbrook antenna). The strongest by far was always Norway
(RIP) on 1314 which was a regular. Beyond that Virgin on 1215 was often
heard, sometimes with decent audio, although usually briefly only. Farda
on 1575 was also often heard in the early local evening. Beyond that Spain
seemed to be present occasionally, and on one occasion, good reception of Voice
of Russia WS via Germany on 1323. I'm looking forward to this dx season
and hope to hear more. It's a lot harder than TP dx which commonly on a
good morning yields 20 or 30 audible signals from Japan, China, Korea, Vietnam,
etc.
