Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 10-2

[D1028Gary@xxxxxxx]

Thanks Chuck,
 
Your suggestion is appreciated. 
 
I did see several NHK2 loggings on 639 made in Grayland and Masset years  
ago, and it does seem like the most likely possibility for a CNR1 co-channel. 
 I'll review the 5 minute 639 kHz Mix recording again for more clues, and 
see if  I can make out any Japanese this time. The NHK big guns weren't 
especially  strong this morning, but they did have stable signals. The 5 kw 
Japanese like  the 675 and 603 NHK1 Synchros didn't show up, though.
 
73, Gary

Hi  Gary:

There are quite a few logs of Japan on 639 from Grayland. Until  the 
sunspots got so low around 2005, I'd say Japan was the #1 log on 639.  Maybe you 
have some recordings of the NHK big guns around that time? Perhaps  the 
announcers can be matched up.

Chuck
