Re: [IRCA] TP's for Monday, August 19, 2013---Victoria version

Hi Nick,

Both 1566-HLAZ and 828-JOBB had turbo-charged signals this morning on the Cliff, with 1566 the strongest I've ever heard them (by far) in 6 years of DXing. A very weird and wacky session, with Asian TP's fighting it out with Kiwis and Aussies on several frequencies (531, 603, 828 and 891). There was a very unlikely fight between JOQG and 531-PI, and the 5 kW NHK1 synchros and 603-Waatea. It took the DU's almost the entire sunrise session to finally dispatch the persistent Japanese.

73, Gary DeBock (now back in the DU-dead zone of Puyallup, WA)

Yikes....that southerly location, you guys.  For me, this has to have 
been the most useless morning of the summer....or from a propagation 
standpoint, rather interesting.  Very few carriers, and incredibly 
erratic.  A strong carrier would quickly disappear, then back again 
some time later.   The only one to really deliver audio here, less 
than 30 seconds, with maybe 5 readable, was, of all things, JOBB-828.

not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or 
noise could be understood by a native speaker:

JOBB-828 fading up  to man in JJ, then another in EE saying "roll out 
the red carpet" at 1246UT, and within seconds, gone again



Burbles in the splatter and noise (if lucky, language might be 
guessed at by cadence of talk, or parallel established by changes in 
talk or music) :

756 unID man talking way down in the murk 1247UT; normally I'd 
consider this a carrier, but I was desperate, hi


Strongish het, no or "near imaginary"audio (either undermodulated or 
ravaged by splatter):

738 774 819 882 891 1008 1143 1503 1566


best wishes,

Nick
