[IRCA] TP DX in Seattle on November 2

[Bruce Portzer <bportzer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Today's TP DX session was unusual when you consider:

-Â Nearly all of the action took place between 700 and 1000 kHz.

- The strongest TP signal was China on 981

- Chinese stations in general were better than normal

- HLAZ was barely there today, despite all the fun further down the dial
