[IRCA] TP DX Today in Seattle

[Bruce Portzer <bportzer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I woke up early today and checked out the TP scene for the first time in 
over a week.

There were many signals, but most were weak, and few were good on a 
sustained basis.  Some of the usual NHK & Korean powerhouses were 
sometimes OK but not spectacular.  The most interesting items were hets 
against my 50kw locals on 710 820 and 1090, but unfortunately no audio 
was heard.   That was from 1313 to 1405 UT.  After that, I had other 
things to deal with, including a 7 a.m. conference call as part of a 
weird day that was half telecommuting and half vacation, separated by a 
medical appointment in the middle.  I made a couple of quick checks 
1405-1500ut but no improvements were noted, much like what Gary 
experienced during his morning session.  I guess that's to be expected 
on the downward slope of November.

Here's today's DX:
