Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 3-7 (Preliminary)



There was quite a lot of post-sunrise activity today, mainly Chinese, then later devolving back to Japanese, with 1566 generally ruling the roost in terms of strength and readability.

Even after 1600UT, there was still half-hearted audio on 1566, but also 1287 and 594 as well. (for the half-hearted DXer, perhaps it would have been quarter-hearted audio.) Breakfast was delayed this morning, even I need sustenance more than DX, and stopped recording, perhaps too soon.

Details later.

best wishes

Nick

Sadly - with my inferior 80-10 end fed (omni-directional) and E/NE Flag,
there was no trans-pacific joy for me....
apart from wispy audio on 1575 of an unknown origin.

Even as we speak there are still carriers and likely audio (for some) on
1242, 1287, 1566 and 1593! Amazing as it is 1630 hours.
I imagine that the DX at waterside western locations is now the stuff of
legends.
