Re: [IRCA] TP's for Thursday 4/05/12

Hi Dennis,

Thanks for your detailed TP report this morning (and on most recent 
mornings).

I was also listening from 1300-1345 this morning, and noticed some 
unusual (for here) propagation from the South Pacific. 738-Tahiti was 
in at a fair level with French talk around 1330, plus there were some 
fairly strong carriers on several "Big Gun" DU frequencies like 567, 
657 and 675 kHz.  Your 576 kHz UnID could possibly have been a signal 
from 2RN, which is a fairly strong station on the Oregon coast each 
summer, typically playing a diverse variety of music

 Conditions really improved this morning.   Lower channels at good 
levels while
the
upper channels 1566 & 1575 produced no audio.  Hawaii on 1500 was heard 
with a
good signal.
Felt like a morning in September, a nice change from previous 
spring/winter
conditions here.

153      RUSSIA, Radio Rossii 1308 fair signal with man in Russian
279      RUSSIA, Radio Rossii 1301-1304 weak signal with man in Russian.
576      UNKNOWN 1340-1343 fair signal at times. Gospel song by woman 
then
signal faded.  
           out at end of song.  Not // to the NHK 1 network.  First 
time
anything heard on this channel.
           Back again at 1347 with woman singing non gospel tune.  1348 
Jazz
tune.  1451 man speaking in ? 
            Signal then faded out.  Signal best on SW ewe, but heard on 
other 3
antennas. 
 594     JAPAN, JOAK NHK 1 1309 good signal with two men in Japanese.
666      JAPAN, JOBK NHK 1 1326-1327 man & woman in Japanese // 594.
693      JAPAN, JOAB NHK 2 1318 good signal with man in Japanese.
774      JAPAN, JOUB NHK2 1319 good signal // 693
828      JAPAN, JOBB NHK 2 1320-1322 poor signal.  Surprise that this 
station
poor while other
           Japanese powerhouse station had good signals.  1323 signal 
up to
fair.
891      AUSTRALIA? close to audio carrier, but Idaho station KDJQ 
signal is to
strong.  I can
            lower KDJQ signal with the sky wire loop, but it lowers the 
DU to a
lower carrier level.
1500    HAWAII KHKA  1400 good signal atop channel with ID.  ESPN 
programming.
