[IRCA] Today's TP DX in Seattle

[Bruce Portzer <bportzer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

 I went to be late last night (or more correctly, this morning) so I 
let the SDR record today's DX.  Conditions seemed to be down a bit from 
yesterday, but still much better than Wednesday and Thursday.

The Korean on 972 had the best signal today, followed by Japan on 693.  
I'll have to qualify that statement by saying the SDR failed to record 
the 700-900 and 1100-1300 segments of the band as scheduled, so I have 
no idea how some of the regulars like 747 774 1134 and 1206 were doing 
today.

In the "it shouldn't be as hard as it's been" department, I finally 
detected carriers on 1053 and 1575. I would have expected them to be 
powerhouses by now.  A couple of regularly heard carriers, such as 909 
and 918, are almost producing audio now, so they'll bear further watching.

Good audio, most of it understandable by a native speaker

Weak audio, recognizable program content but not good enough to understand
