[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 10-6

[d1028gary@xxxxxxx]

Hello All,

It was another nice TP-DXing morning here, with the Chinese stations especially doing better than they have all week. 603, 639, 738, 936 and 1044 kHz all came through with fair to good audio from 1330-1415, with 639-CNR1 the strongest of the group. 738-BEL2 in Taiwan matched its best signals of the season, and 936-Anhui did well with an apparent drama program after 1400. As usual this week the Korean big guns on 972 and 1053 were the strongest TP's of the morning, with 972-HLCA again pegging the Tecsun's S/N readout with an awesome signal around 1415. Maxing out the PL-380's S/N readout is actually very unusual for Asiatic TP's here, with only 972-HLCA and the 1053-Jammer having managed such strength so far this season. By comparison, no fewer than 10 South Pacific (DU) stations did it on the Oregon cliffs this summer (567-NZ, 594-NZ, 603-NZ, 657-NZ, 684-NZ, 738-Tahiti, 765-NZ, 828-NZ, 891-5AN and 963-NZ). Of course, I'm happy to see other members of the TP-DXing gang giving!
  "Cliffhanger DX" a try this season (and wish that I could join them).
