(7'x24' Conti superloop pointed 320 degrees, RTL-SDR dongle with
upconverter, coverage up to around 1400kHz)
I wonder if the huge dropoff up in the NW was due to the major geomagnetic
storm overnight? In contrast, I had my best TP audio of the month!
The early peak just after Japanese sunset was decent with weak audio from
747 and 774 already by 0913UT (2:13am MST). That continued off and on for
another half-hour. The main peak before local sunrise started shortly
after 12UT. I didn't get the large number of carriers or as many
frequencies with audio as in recent days, but 774-JOAB delivered some very
nice audio. There wasn't enough activity for a detailed analysis, but here
is a brief log:
1204UT - 747 audio being persistent and almost intelligible
This was followed by a fairly long period of only carriers
1242UT - 774 picked up a lot, and up to medium audio at 1243UT
1248UT - 774 medium audio again, a man talking
1258UT - 774 medium-good audio again, a man still talking, into the TOH 3+1
pips
1300UT - 774 a bit of a fade out, but stronger again for a bit
There were decent carriers at times on 594, 693, 828, 972, and 1053, but
not much more than that.
I've posted a 774-JOUB recording to my blog:
