[IRCA] TP DX in Seattle on Sept 23

[Bruce Portzer <bportzer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Today's TP DX was very similar to yesterday's.  The low end of the dial 
was quite lively with Korean and Japanese signals.  981 was quite good 
but it was the only decent Chinese signal.  The 711 carrier "almost" 
produced audio, as did a carrier on 792.

The upper half of the dial was downright anemic.  HLAZ-1566 was weaker 
than normal, and other high-enders were either missing in action or 
barely detectable.

GOOD

890    KBBI (presumed), "Democracy Now" program rising above CJDC 1301, 
no other Alaskans noted
