Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 12-6

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

Conditions were not particularly good here either, Gary, with the 
same two stations topping out the pack.    But 747 was a bit of a 
star around 1520UT, easily 10dB better than either 740 or 750 
domestic channels, and not just a brief peak either.    774 and 828 
didn't come close, though they were audible.   Actually dug out some 
audio on 972 as well.  I'll go over the files later, but I suspect it 
will otherwise be extreme minimalist DX.

Intriguing, given that your Asiatic conditions are usually better 
than Victoria's.  (and, Chris Kadlec might chime in on 1053, or the 
lack thereof.   I believe that they "sign off" just after 1400UT, 
which would explain their lack of signal after 1500UT, hi.   )

best wishes,

Nick
