[IRCA] Re: Graveyard Blog

["Mike Hardester" <DX4EVR@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

    I began DXing from California in the late 60's, and at times in the 70s 
and 80's while stationed there I continued to DX. My observations on GY 
frequencies were similar to Bob's. If one station faded out, then another 
one usually faded up. There might be multiple stations, but one station was 
usually dominant. Here in North Carolina, the GY frequencies seem to be 
nothing more than noise. I've had occasional times when a GY frequency 
yielded up a station for a log, but usually nothing more than noise.
