Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 10-11

Gary - 
The game was interspersed with a few blocks of talk up until 1416, but I don't hear any more play by play after that. There are some ads in the following minutes but I quit listening.

During signal peaks I heard a male voice that sounded Korean to me, but it was too weak and garbled to be sure. The male voice seemed excited, which supports Bruce's suggestion that it may have been sport coverage. 1017-Tonga has never managed a trace here, however, and neither have any of the 1017 Filipinos. Nick's recording doesn't sound at all like the excited male voice I heard around 1350. It doesn't really sound like sports play-by-play either, but maybe the game that Bruce mentions was over by 1417? About the only thing I can say for sure is that 1017 had an unusually stable, steady heterodyne with weak audio peaks from 1250-1405 here, and there was also unusually good propagation from 738-Tahiti at the same time. For a lackluster DX location like this, it's probably the best 1017 scenario possible.
