Re: [IRCA] Oklahoma TP DX 10/28/12

Richard,

Your TP-DXing results in Oklahoma this morning were excellent, considering the fact that Asiatic propagation seemed to drop off a little here in comparison to yesterday. There was some good audio from 972-HLCA and a few of the Japanese big guns (594, 693, 747 and 828) this morning, but the other Korean stations (and the Chinese) never came up to more than a fair level. TP signals here were pretty typical for this mediocre season, and nowhere near yesterday's unusual levels. 

It seems that you have found a winning combination with your PL-606 and 7" FSL antenna, especially considering your location in the middle of the continent. Nice work on mastering the new FSL for transoceanic DXing.

TP DX this morning was much the same as yesterday.

The best signal was from the ROK jamming station on 1053 at 1240-1254 GMT. It
was mixing with audio from an unidentified station. I assume it was the North
Korean transmitter at Haeju. Both faded out at 1254 (local sunrise was at 1249).

Audio was also heard from 747-JOIB at 1120-1207 GMT and 774-JOUB at 1235-1253.

Traces of signals were observed on 567 (JOIK?), 594 (JOAK?), 828 (JOBB), 972
(HLCA), 1287 (JOHR?), and 1503 (JOUK?).

Receiver: PL-606 with 7-inch FSL antenna. I find the 606 is as capable as the
PL-310 but better fits the definition of an URL. It also mates well with the
FSL.

Good DX all.
