[IRCA] Seattle TP report for October 18

[Bruce Portzer <bportzer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Today's conditions were similar to yesterday in terms of signal 
strength.   Overall TP reception was rather unexciting, but not as bad 
as some of the sessions earlier this week.

Most of the action didn't start until after 1400, with some stations 
peaking around 1420-35. There were still a few carriers hanging around 
at 1500.  This was the first time I'd checked that late so I'm not sure 
if that's normal.

Good - much of it would be understandable by a native speaker
774    JOUB, M&W w/KK lesson 1412

Fair - a few words and phrases would be understandable
693    JOAB language lesson 1404
747    JOIB language lesson 1405
890    KBBI, 1359, the usual jazz filler, legal ID & marine wx by woman 
mixing w/CJDC
972    KBS, 1408 KK talk, not as good as yesterday
981    CNR1, CC woman talking 1410 briefly cutting through CKNW splatter
1566    HLAZ, hymns 1339, then woman w/end of JJ pgm 1344
1575    VOA, woman in SEA language 1402 & 1410

Poor - incomprehensible
594    JOAK weak pips, faint talk 1400
828    JOBB time pips 1400
891    talk 1413 too weak to ID language
945    faint talk, CC-ish inflections 1413 during pause in KJR splash
1053     jammer
1287    JOHR, showing up late w/JJ male talk 1426-1432, just a carrier 
earlier
1323    faint woman talking 1433, RR-like inflections, undoubtedly CRI
