[IRCA] Orcas Island TPs: Sept 18

["John H. Bryant" <bjohnorcas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 My general impression was that things were down from yesterday's 
"Best o the Season" to something like average conditions, but with 
things being a bit disturbed: there were some interesting things around.

540: CNR-1//5030 continues to occupy 540 at and just before dawn. Its 
just a question of "how strong today?" In previous years, this was an 
occasional visitor.

720: VOR's JJ Service was doing quite well this morning, all alone.

801: This is usually just a het for me, but today, CNR2//6155 was in 
at a 7 level.

1026: Presumed Beijing Business Radio was rocking here... most 
usually just a mumble

The high band was virtually dead until just at dawn when a few 
interesting things flared up briefly.

1251: VOR's CC Service//7300 was noted just at dawn

1332: Tokai Radio's Nagoya sound was noted here for the first time this season.

1386: NHK2 Synchros, usually with Morioka dominant were here at a season best.

1440 JOWF is here al,most every morning at max dawn. I am missing 
their satellite transmitter, JOWL on 1197 which, in past seasons, has 
almost always been better than the main station on 1440.

In general a very fun morning, but not earth shattering.

I'll be interested in what Bruce and the Puyallup Posse heard 
today.  Walt, if you were gonna sleep through and have your antenna 
set wrong, this was a pretty good morning for it :>)
