[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 11-3

[d1028gary@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Hello All, 
 
Asians signals were improved overall this morning from yesterday'sÂsubdued levels, withÂmoderately goodÂÂTP signals from the both the Japanese and Korean big gunsÂbefore and after sunrise. Although most of the second-tier Asians stayed at fairly weak levels, 1134-HLKC managed its best signals of the entire season, hitting fair to goodÂstrength after 1415 (while in occasional competition with 1134-JOQR). 
 
My session started at 1400 with the usual Japanese and Korean big guns on 594, 693, 747, 774 and 972 in and out with fair signals, along with a somewhatÂunusual addition-- 1134-HLKC (which had been an underachiever all season long). After 1415 thisÂKBS station seemed to get a boost with the increasing daylight, fading in at fair to good strength in an occasional snarl with 1134-JOQR. Other second-tier Asians showing up in the predawn darkness around 1410 were 603-China (poor), 657-Pyongyang (fair), 1503-JOUK (poor, // 594) and 1566-HLAZ (fair). The sunrise enhancement boost after 1430 didn't seem to doÂanything for most of the Asians,Âwith the Japanese big guns and 972-HLCA staying at the same levels as in the predawn darkness (fair to good), although 603-HLSA joined 603-ChinaÂin aÂweak mix around 1445. 1575-VOA also made a fair appearance just before the propagation started to fold around 1500 as the high band recovered somewhat from its recent doldrums. The late session Asian propagation was nothing to shout about,Âthough, and the last survivor 972-HLCA was already sinking into the noise prior to the 1500 TOH.ÂOverall the session was pretty routine, although the performance by 1134-HLKC did manage to make things interesting. Best Asian signal of the morning was a tie between 594-JOAK (very good around 1420) and 972-HLCA (very good around 1435).
