[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 18 Oct 2009

[Nigel Pimblett <ntjp@xxxxxxx>]

What a difference a day makes.  After yesterday's mediocre (and I'm 
being polite) conditions today was a totally different story.   In terms 
of the number of signals it ranked as one of the best of the season, 
with audio noted on 62 split frequencies.  A lot of the signals weren't 
overly strong though, with even the big Japanese still somewhat subdued, 
rather like yesterday.  Japan in general seemed a bit low, with China 
more favoured.

My highlights:

- Chinese doing very well on 918, with strong echoes
- Both Korea (a bit low) and Chinese heard on 999.  They were about 
equal in strength, but it was possible to notch out either.
- Two stations on 1206, the regular off frequency Korean from China, and 
another unID which was on frequency.
- Also two stations on 729, where I normally just hear the Japanese
- Chinese language station on 1386, where I normally hear nothing, but 
once in a while the NHK synchros
- 1179, another frequency where I hear Japan, had a mix of at least 2 
and maybe 3 stations.
- CRI on 1521 had nice ID at 1300 again.  This one's been nearly a daily 
visitor of late.

Another interesting morning, and another batch of Perseus files to 
review later.   Hmmm, that 1 TB drive once seemed so big!

73,
