> Hi all - this is my first set of loggings since I moved into this location on the coast of BC just north of Vancouver. I use a Kiwa modified Sony ICF2010, Wellbrook 1520 Imperium on a rotator, and Datong FL3. My home is about 600 feet above sea level, facing West South West towards Gibsons BC and the Wellbrook is about 15 metres from the house. I know that most of you have been DX'ing TP a long time, but frankly it was a total rush for me to have amazingly readable audio from TP locations! All of the station ID's are presumed because I did not hear any actual ID's on air. As soon as I get some recording capability (I need a line level converter because the 2010 line out won't push a big enough signal into my Mac mini to do a reasonable recording) I'll probably be able to do some 'proper' ID's.
