TPs seemed slow to get going, but some audio was
eventually heard, plus seemed to last longer today. And I heard TP on my copper
loop as well, though it picks up all the noise from the house, and takes a much
stronger het before producing audio, compared to the longwires (which don't pick
up the house noise at all, and give much stronger signals). The copper loop
probably needs to be put out in the field so it doesn't point E/W right past the
house--maybe then it wouldn't pick up so much pulsing, buzzing and the like that
appears to be coming from the house computers.

NE Oregon
R75, AR7030, longwires, copper pipe
loop
LWBC--153, 180, 189, 279 with Far East Russia all
with poor to weak audio, with saxophone jazz solo at 1340 utc. 153 and 279
continued, later, with 279 eventually the only one heard, becoming medium level
1410 utc, and later at 1500 utc.
MW audio heard at various times, with brief
fadeups, from 594, 567, 693, 774, 828 from 1345-1500 utc. Toward the end 774
seemed the best, and that was also heard on the copper loop at 1443 utc. Here, I
was getting fast approx. 5 second fading cycles, with audio appearing at the top
of the fadeup, then going away, over and over. No doubt strong signals for the
lucky folks close to the coast!
