[IRCA] Oklahoma TP DX 8/29/17

[Richard N Allen <richarda@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The only possible signal heard here from across the Pacific was a significant carrier from the WSW on 702 kHz, most likely from 2BL.  It was first heard as a slight heterodyne against 700-XEGD at 1142 UTC becoming much stronger toward sunrise at 1200.  It peaked at 1201 before fading somewhat at 1204, then regaining in strength 1206.  The signal began fading away from 1210 but didn't disappear until around 1225.  In the past 2BL has been the most often heard DU carrier signal here, but only rising above the audio threshold a few times.

No Asian signals were observed.  Also, there wasn't the usual trace of a signal from DU on 612.

Question:  Is it feasible to couple a Wellbrook ALA1530LNP aerial with a C Crane Skywave receiver without serious modification?  I'd like try using them together.
