Re: [IRCA] Rockwork 4 Ultralight DU's for 8-1 (Conclusion)



<<< Gary, excellent results for sure from especially New Zealand! >>> 

Thanks, Walt! We wish that you were here (except for the 100 degree weather). 

<<< I can attest to English on Radio Tarana 1386, which I heard very well from Masset 
at 11:54 UTC (12:54 would have been too late due to LSR), with an ad in 
Indian accented English for Tarana's radio app. >>> 

Thanks also for your 1386-Tarana language assessment. Hindu-accented Kiwi English certainly isn't my strong point, especially after driving in overnight from Puget Sound to make the ocean cliff sunrise session! If not for Theo I would need to pay a translator to decipher my Kiwi English recordings (after finding them trickier than the Cantonese Chinese that I needed to learn in order to communicate with Ruth). 

73, Gary

Gary, excellent results for sure from especially New Zealand! I can 
attest to English on Radio Tarana 1386, which I heard very well from Masset 
at 11:54 UTC (12:54 would have been too late due to LSR), with an ad in 
Indian accented English for Tarana's radio app. Wow, some pretty 
astounding signals there. Glad you fellas are able to all fit into 
Rockwork. 73,....Walt 
PS: I'd add my Tarana ID, but forgot the rule of only allowing 35 
kb....so 1990s!
