[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 9-27

[D1028Gary@xxxxxxx]

Hello All,
 
     Asiatic propagation continued to be at a fairly  basic level this 
morning, with the low-band TP regulars again having fair to  good audio, but 
with almost no reception of the second-tier Asians. In  comparison to 
yesterday, the middle and high band "big gun" TP's seemed down in  strength, and the 
1053-Korean Jammer was pretty anemic. The normally  vibrant frequency of 
1134 kHz (with "big guns" JOQR, KBS and CNR1 usually  fighting it out) was just 
another fair strength TP-mix frequency.
     A detailed search for second-tier TP audio  resulted in a few seconds 
of fair Chinese from 936-China (presumed Anhui)  at 1329, but that was it. 
Basically, it was the same regular collection of  Japanese and Korean "big 
guns" this morning (along with 738-Taiwan, which acts  like a "big gun" here), 
plus the Asian "best bets" on 639, 648, 657, 666 and 675  kHz coming up 
with fair-good audio at times. With modest propagation like  this, Dennis' 
Silver Point TP-DXing results are making me dream of DXing on  an Oregon coast 
cliff again :-)
