I'm still not hearing the TPs nearly as well as John. This morning's SDR recordings showed promise for the season, but nothing worth getting excited about just yet.
Really good audio: KFQD-750 obliterating KXL at 1216, they had a help wanted ad for the Anchorage Media Group sales dept in case anyone's interested
Somewhat OK audio: KENI-650, legal ID & ABC news mixing with CISL at 1200
A few snippets of audio at times 594, 693, 747, 774 (first appearance of the season!), 828, 972, 1566, 1575
Carriers, mostly weak, mostly short duration: 648, 837, 846, 864, 918, 936, 1035, 1206, 1475

Bruce, thanks for reminding me not to forget about the Alaskans. Sure enough at 13:00, KFQD is totally dominating 750 at excellent strength. I didn't hear anything except CISL on 650, but 850 has Nome at good strength (first of the season that I've heard them). I'm sure there are plenty more Alaskans to hear as well. As far as TPs, definitely down compared to yesterday which was simply excellent. Both 1575 and 1566 there, but a bit weaker. 774 NHK2 very strong, though, just not quite at local level. Haven't had a chance to check anything else yet. I think I'll have a look for Alaskans first! ...Walt
