[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 10-6

[d1028gary@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Hello All, 
 
Asian results here this morning were once again very similar to those reported by Dennis asÂTP propagationÂtook a definite step backward, inÂcomparison to yesterday.ÂWhat sounded like a real clunker session early on was rescued somewhat by a very late sunrise enhancement boost, bringing severalÂJapanese big guns out of the noise to reach poor to fair levels. One of them (594-JOAK) even managed a few seconds ofÂgood audioÂjust prior to 1400-- one of theÂbiggest comebacks in recent memory. 
 
The band was absolutely comatose at my 1300 startÂtime, with not even a weak Asian carrier to be found. ThisÂtotal shutout continued until around 1335 here, when both 594-JOAK and 693-JOAB started to manage very weak carriers. They both stayed that way until 1345, whenÂtheyÂfinally started to manage poor audio in a very late sunrise enhancement boost.ÂAround this time 603-HLSA,Â774-JOUB and 828-JOBB also started coming out of the noise at very weak levels, but their signals went downhill from there. On the other hand both 594-JOAK and 693-JOAB continued to rise up in strength, with JOAK hitting a few good peaks before 1400 and 693-JOAB managing fair signals in and out of the Vancouver splatter. Except for a ghostly signal from 603-HLSA around 1350 the Koreans were all missing in action here this morning, and unlike DennisÂI had no high band propagationÂon 1566 and 1575. Overall it was a pretty dreary session, although it wasn't quite the total clunkerÂthat it seemedÂit would be during the predawn darkness.
