[IRCA] ULR TA's in Puyallup, WA Last Night

[D1028Gary@xxxxxxx]

Hi Nigel, Nick and Walt,
 
Having learned the hard way last year that dead-sounding TA's have a  
tendency to resurrect themselves, I stuck around to see if some Europeans would  
come in after 1575-Radio Farda's healthy fade-in last night.
 
Sure enough, 1377 (presumed France) produced some poor audio around 0412 in 
 the 1380 splatter, and 675-Radio Maria produced a few seconds of Catholic 
choral  worship around 0433 here. 756 (presumed DLF) was close to audio at 
0445 but  failed to seal the deal, similar to a presumed 693-BBC, which was a 
strong  carrier at 0441. All these were received here last season at much 
better  signal levels, but wispy TA's may be the best we can hope for  here 
on the West Coast his season.

I  didn't have a lot of time this evening either, but did note audio on  
1575,1377,1269,1215, 1089 (mix of UK and Russia), 999, 963, 684, and  
675.   The audio has tended to be very fleeting, with only 1215  and 963 
have had any consistency.  One of the better TA evenings this  season, 
but some way below the opening of 2 nights ago at this  QTH.

>Of course, other things to do this evening, but  stopping by the receiver 
from time to time has yielded audio traces on 1269,  1422 (not at the same 
time; I've had them parallel in the past), 855 w/murky  talk and a bit of a 
hum.  999 w/ woman in Slavic inflected language at  1345...sure would like a 
parallel or webstream for assumed Moldova; 1377  France Info w/ brass band 
sounding mx followed by man then woman talking, all  leading the webstream by 
around 10 seconds.
