[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 9-4

[d1028gary@xxxxxxx]

Hello All,

Longwave broadcast was back in strength this morning with Radio Rossii
good on 189, 234 and 279 kHz, and fair on 153 and 180. 164-Mongolia had
weak female-voiced news after 1300 UTC, which I was finally able to
confirm with the equally weak 4895 kHz SW parallel on an ICF-2010 for a
new Longwave TP here (209-Mongolia was received last month).

After the 1575 kHz mystery yesterday this morning's TP conditions here
didn't allow much investigation, as the audio was weak at best. The
Japanese big guns (594, 747, 774 and 828 kHz) were doing well, and
738-BEL2 (Taiwan Fisheries) had decent strength but the same
transmitter issues, with a raspy carrier and throbbing hum on its
audio. A puzzle was a completely pure sine wave carrier on 657 kHz from
the Asian direction, meaning either that Pyongyang was off the air, or
that its transmitter has been fixed (highly unlikely, it would seem).
936-Anhui, 972-HLCA and the 1053 Jammer were also decent at times here
this morning, but not at steady levels. In general it seemed like a
fairly average TP session on MW here.
