[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 10-15

[d1028gary@xxxxxxx]

Hello All,

     Transoceanic results in this DU-dead zone were not nearly as favorable as those reported by Walt this morning, but then this location rarely has any audio from either Australia or NZ-- and low expectations help in maintaining a positive DXing attitude. The only indication of Australia was a moderate carrier on 891, which never came close to audio. 738-Tahiti was  back again with fair French OM audio at 1405, but once again that was all that showed up here from the South Pacific.
     One change from yesterday was the appearance of very weak audio from a couple of Korean big guns-- the first sign of an Asian TP recovery after the extended aurora period. Along with threshold audio from 1575-VOA, this made the band slightly more interesting this morning than yesterday (which was probably the worst day of the entire season, with only poor audio from 738-Tahiti, and no carriers from either Asia, NZ or Australia).
 
738  Radio Polynesie  Mahina, Tahiti  Fair French OM audio (apparent
             news) at 1405 http://www.mediafire.com/?9lj5vclvn2rm3cy  
1134  KBS  Hwaseong, S. Korea (presumed)  Poor music rising above
            noise level at 1348
1566  HLAZ  Jeju, S. Korea  Threshold audio during Japanese Christian
           program at 1357
1575  VOA  Ban Rassom, Thailand  Poor Asiatic language OM speech
          rising above noise level late at 1408

73 and Good DX,
