Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 10-17

As I said before, your location is more advantageous for reception of signals from Asia than mine.  The most oblivious advantage you have over me is distance.  Of the few DXers currently posting their TP reception, I am the furthest inland.  And, all of that extra distance is overland.  

Another advantage is the length of time the path is in darkness before local sunrise.  In that regard, the dark path is approximately 1.5 hours shorter here.

If it wasn't for their considerable power output, I doubt if I'd be able to hear any Asiatic signals.  However, I still find it easier than hearing ones from across the Atlantic.  But that's another chapter.

I'm hoping reception tomorrow morning being better than today.

  Hello All,
   
       It seems like a West Coast location paid off this  morning, 
  considering the TP-DXing reports from Richard, Nigel and Bill.  Asian signals were 
  quite healthy here this morning, with the  general conditions fairly close to 
  what Bruce reported (considering the  typical propagation twists between us).
