[IRCA] August 24-26 Cape Perpetua DXpedition Report



--- Begin Message ---
Hello All,

For those interested, a 9-page article describing last month's Cape Perpetua (OR) ocean cliff DXpedition has been uploaded to http://www.mediafire.com/view/6a1h1c34cft9e2m/August_2014_Cape_Perpetua_Ocean_Cliff_DXpedition.doc , and will shortly be uploaded to the Ultralightdx Yahoo group file site.

The article describes the wild challenge of transoceanic DXing during gale force winds (on two out of three days) at a narrow Highway 101 ocean cliff turnoff on Cape Perpetua, two miles south of Yachats, OR. The article includes MP3 recording links for 47 Asian and South Pacific stations received during the ocean cliff DXpedition on a 7.5" loopstick Tecsun PL-380 Ultralight radio (relatively expendable in the vicious weather) and a 15" FSL antenna (definitely NOT expendable). 

73 and Good DX,
Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA, USA)
