Congratulations to Bruce! I am listening to the clip now. I can't
believe how good the reception is. I have had carriers on 774 numerous
times, but it was never enough for audio.
I bet 1566 South Korea ought to pop through with audio some time. I
have also had presumed NE Asia carriers on 747, 828, 873, 1053 (two
carriers), and 1575.
Sapporro used to verify direct, and they still might.
Bruce, glad to see you are getting good use of the DX Clip Joint.
