Re: [IRCA] Oregon Coast DXpedition

[d1028gary@xxxxxxx]

Hi Derek,

It's been lots of fun logging DU's here in Lincoln City, OR, and the cliff here seems to be helping add about 5 dB to the South Pacific signals (maybe like your cliff does down there?).

Nice MP3's have been made of 585, 603, 639, 648, 657, and 738 kHz, with marginal MP3's of 594 (a possible DU mix), 666 (French; Noumea according to Patrick), 684 (seems parallel to 639-Fiji), 702, 774, 891 DU mix and a few others. Unfortunately the Liberty Inn doesn't provide the Liberty to upload MP3's, so such fun will have to wait for a few more days :-)

I haven't forgotten about your DU UniD on 909 kHz (with the CW format), but propagation has been extremely variable here from day to day, and 909 hasn't cooperated at all yet. Maybe tomorrow?

73, Gary
