[IRCA] N. Alabama DXpedition - Sep 26-27 - superb TA conditions
Jim Pogue, JD Stephens and I went on a DXpedition to Joe Wheeler State
Park in Northern Alabama over the weekend. We employed a Super KAZ loop
antenna bearing 40 degrees and enjoyed the best inland TA session that
any of us can recall. Northwestern Alabama is not what one would
consider a prime TA DX hotspot by any means, but the combination of the
outstanding Super KAZ loop and the excellent conditions really created a
'perfect storm' of TA DX fun.
The first night, although compromised due to local storm fronts, yielded
many great logs in difficult circumstances. Last night (Sep 27 UT) was
simply fantastic. Algeria, Denmark, Germany, France, Spain, England,
Morocco and many other countries logged on MW and LW. I have two nights
of Perseus drift net recordings to start digging through, and will post
logs over the next weeks both here and on DXWW East.
It really was a joy, not to mention a big surprise, hearing DR P5
Kalundborg, Denmark on 1062 kHz signing on with a great signal and that
awesome IS!
