Basically, as some of us know, if you can avoid
static-crash nights, there is still a lot of DX
to be heard in the heart of summer. This is
especially true when talking about southerly
targets enjoying greater length of darkness.
Not sure how the whole "DX season" thing got
started. I suppose some parts of the country
such as the Deep South and parts of the Midwest
have nearly continuous thunderstorm
activity. In the northeast and the northwest
you can sometimes pick your spots for relatively noise free success.
Gary DeBock running Down Unders from OR and WA
would be the West Coast version of your Cape Cod summer DX, Roy.
783 hasn't shown much here either lately. What
is there is probably Spain / Syria instead of
the usual Mauritania flamethrower.

Pulled into the parking lot of the local beach
(Menauhant) on 7/14/18 and set up the mini-loop and other gear.
Checked the compass heading and that was at 120
Degrees and happened to be the sweet spot for the night.
Not much for Argies this session but Africa was producing.

0100 120

600 Brazil - 2 woman in Portuguese - 4 pips
heard, last one higher pitch - Cuba on top.
620 Brazil - Game going on with lots of
fanfare, party noises, sirene etc. - I would say
Fortaleza as 1645 MLZ beacon off Sao Paulo not in.
700 Many stations on this channel - Brazil best last part of file.
720 USB - Brazil mostly on top w/ others. These
2 frequencies could hold some good DX but 710
can get in the way. So at an auspicious date will make a trip to Chatham.
0145 & nbsp; 170 Deg.
After hearing the Minute Man under 570 NY moved the truck. Not much.
910 PTR - WPRP - Ponce on top with music and ID.
That's it.
Noticed no 783 on a file. So went back over all
the files and could not even find a string on the waterfall for 783.
So something going on with Mauritania it seems.
Take care,
Roy Barstow - Falmouth - OLD CAPE COD
