[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 3-1

[d1028gary@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Hello All, 
 
As predicted by solar experts Asian signals hit the skids this morning, with very few TP's managing to get out of the noise during aÂnon-existentÂsunrise enhancement. The diehards that did manage audio didn't stick around for long, and you needed some luck to catch them at the right time. 
 
At my 1405 start time the band featured poorÂsignals in and out from 594, 603, 693, 972, 1044 (the only minor surprise) and 1566 in the darkness, which seemed like a fairly routine situation just before daybreak. Unfortunately the increasing daylight did nothing for the Asians, which bailed one by one until they were all long gone by 1440. It's possible that TP signals were better prior to my 1405 start time, but after pushing my live-DXing luck yesterday by starting of at 1300 (with fairly good results)ÂI figured that the frozen back yard didn't seem asÂattractive as an extra hour of sleep. 
 
73 and Good DX,
