[IRCA] TPs and TAs on the West Coast

[Mike Hardester <DX4EVR@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

    Since I no longer trust the ol' brain housing group for memory, I'll 
toss this out to the West Coast DXers from the 60s/70s. There was a 
group of DXers in the San Jose Bay area who were reporting exceptional 
DX, including TAs (BBC-1215) and TPs. The year was before 1972 when I 
joined the Navy. Perhaps past DXM issues of that era might identify them 
and their catches.

    Point. A lot of interesting TPs and some TAs are being noted by WCNA 
DXers. Always one to believe in DX and solar cycles, is there a 
possibility that this is a cycle that returns less frequently that 
expected 11 year cycle?

    Again, I'm not certain, but I think the activity reported lasted for 
longer than a year. Of note also, the San Jose region has a higher level 
of ground conductivity than many other areas of the United States 
(http://www.fcc.gov/mb/audio/m3/index.html). This is a topic that has 
been discussed here and/or the NRC site.

    Just a thought.

    Mike
