Hello All,
In agreement with Richard, Asian signals seemed a little stronger
here today than yesterday, although it was a typical late-season session where
"big gun" TP's dominated. Second-tier Asians never seemed to get out of
the noise, and the band folded early (around 1515).
594, 648, 657, 738, 747, 828, 936, 972, 1134 and 1566 had fair to
good audio at times, although like yesterday there wasn't much of a sunrise
enhancement boost. The big news was finally hearing a pure carrier and audio
signal from 738-BEL2 (Taiwan Fisheries), which has apparently fixed its
raspy carrier and throbbing hum. A pure 738 kHz Asian TP carrier was almost
always a sure sign of HLKG here previously, but now both BEL2 and HLKG have
clean signals, so this "ID tip" is no longer valid.
657-Pyongyang's muffled audio continues to get worse, however. At
1507 a strong Pyongyang signal had almost all the high-frequency audio cut
off, making it sound like the Korean YL's tirades were being impeded by a
mouth muffler. DXing occasionally does provide such unexpected humor.
The following were heard on a C.Crane SWP Slider model (7.5"
loopstick) inductively coupled to a 9' sided PVC tuned passive loop (in the rainy
back yard). A modified ICF-2010 (30" loopstick) was used as an SSB spotting
receiver:
