Re: [IRCA] Perseus WAV Files Recorded in Hawaii Available

[Les Rayburn <les@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to all involved in making these recordings available to the DXing 
community. I've long wanted to explore the MW bands on the West Coast to 
hear first hand
what Pacific DX sounds like---now it's no longer just a pipe dream. You 
have to love the "Silver Age of MW DXing" that we currently are 
entering. As the AM band
continues to fade into the realm of nostalgia for the public, there will 
be many DXing opportunities. Couple this with new technology such as the 
Perseus, and Ultralights, and
you have an exciting time in the history of our hobby.

73,

Les Rayburn, N1LF
