[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 2-8

[d1028gary@xxxxxxx]

Hello All,
 
A fairly good sunrise enhancement session from 1440-1515 here this morning featured the low band Asians, with 594-JOAK briefly reaching its best audio of the entire season around 1507.
 
As usual the band was practically comatose around 1430, with only occasional poor audio from 594-JOAK and 1593-CNR1. Nothing much changed until around 1455, when the increasing daylight boosted up 594-JOAK dramatically, and also brought 603-HLSA (free of China) up out of the noise to reach a fair level with its 3 + 1 pips at the 1500 TOH. 657-Pyongyang also came out of the noise to reach a fair level at this time, and 639-CNR1 was in and out with threshold audio around 1512. Joining these low band TP's were 972-HLCA and 1134-KBS, both in and out with fair audio around 1515. The high band received no sunrise boost at all here, and the previously fair signal from 1593-CNR1 (around 1450) was long gone by 1510. None of the high band regulars had any audio at all by that time, with anemic signals from 1566-HLAZ and 1575-VOA having bailed around 1505. On the other hand 594-JOAK's signal at 1507 was impressive indeed, hitting an excellent peak briefly to record its strongest audio !
 of the entire season.
