[IRCA] Auroral upside

[Nigel Pimblett <nige2730@xxxxxxxxx>]

With the highly variable conditions the last while I've been able to add 
a number of new stations to the log.   Some were long sought targets 
like KAZA 1290 and KMPH 840 from California.   Some were so easy it was 
hard to believe, such as KWIL from Oregon this morning, which was 
virtually alone on the frequency, auroral conditions having apparently 
taken out Spokane's KJRB.  Then there are some that weren't even on my 
radar, such as 1280 WODT New Orleans, logged at 0600 UTC last night.
   Yes, the solar disturbance wiped out my Asian DX, but I think I'm OK 
with swapping a few days of not hearing the regular powerhouses from 
over there in exchange for the dozen or so new catches I've heard from 
the US and Mexico.


73,
