Re: [IRCA] Kauai TP DX Report for 4/23/17

[d1028gary@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Thanks for the excellent, detailed TP-DX report from Kauai, Craig. It's obvious that you have a much better DXing location (and propagation) than any of us on the west coast. Congratulations also on mastering the 5 inch "Frequent Flyer" FSL antenna operation. 

It's no problem to review your TP-DXing videos and make language assessments (although I don't claim to be any expert). My only problem is resisting the temptation to rush down to the airport and book an immediate flight to Kauai. 

Happy Hunting!

Conditions appeared to be improved over a couple of days ago. Yesterday morning's session started indoors due to inclement weather which fortunately moved on. Once again Gary DeBock's Frequent Flyer FSL excelled! I listened from 1615 to 1740. Many thanks also to Gary DeBock for his linguistic review of many reception videos!!
