[IRCA] TPs on Orcas Island: Down Quite a Bit



Things were down quite a bit this morning, both on an early run and later at dawn. The JJs were dpminant early, as is normal now, but they hung around much longer than has been the norm in October. The high band was basically blank until dawn enhancement and then was populated with about a dozen of mixed CCs and JJs. The better than normal JJ conditions brought with them a return of the two Russians, 576 and 648, though they were at lower levels than their glory days of late September. This season, their appearance seems tied to good JJ conditions.

Others of note: NHK2 Synchros on 702, 666 Osaka doing well late, 711 Korea doing well late, 945//1377 CNR1 both doing 9s late after dawn.

Overall, the station count was down and the levels were down from the fantastic Saturday AM.... but still interesting.

Added five to the Ultralight count, thanks to the Slider E100, including JOWF on 1440 (that was an "antenna rather than receiver" reception.)
