Re: [IRCA] 'TP's for 10/25/10 Silver Point Interpretive Lookout, Oregon HW 56

[D1028Gary@xxxxxxx]

Hi Dennis,
 
Wow, that's quite a collection of Ultralight TP's with your E100 and Space  
Magnet Loop! I'm happy that you had so much fun chasing TP's on an Oregon  
cliff above the Pacific, and the cliff certainly seems to have given  your 
ULR DXing station a huge boost in TP reception (like  the cliff in Lincoln 
City gave me, for DU's)..
 
It's funny that you should mention the hum on 594 kHz, which I've also been 
 noticing since the beginning of the DX season. I thought that it was just 
a  local noise problem around Puyallup, but apparently not. I have usually 
been  tuning the Ultralights to 595 kHz like you, Dennis, just to escape the  
noise. Last November the noise was not on 594 kHz, and the Korean and  
Chinese co-channels of JOAK both made it through to Puyallup on several  
occasions.
 
Thanks again for your excellent TP-DXing reports during the convention,  
Dennis, and have a safe drive back to Salmon Creek.
 
73, Gary

Listened from 1330-1425

Dxed a 1/4 mile South of  yesterdays location.  About 100' above the beach 
on 
the  highway.  A fast pace 55 minutes of TP dxing. This dxing from a level  
above
the beach is great, thanks Gary for discovering this method of  dxing.  
Probably
won't dx Sunday morning.  Heading home Sunday  from the IRCA convention.
