Re: [IRCA] TP's for 04-03-08

Hi Dennis and Others,
 
     I was also listening this morning, from about  1255-1335.  In general it 
was a pretty modest morning, with the powerhouse  stations generally down, 
like Dennis said.  But it was the first real  chance to test out the new 14.5" 
loopstick-possessing SRF-39FP  ultralight in actual TP DX, so it was an 
exciting morning here.
 
     Producing strong heterodynes where the ICF-2010  had weak carriers, the 
modified Prison Radio was much quicker to produce  audio from an 
under-modulated HLCA-972, around 1328.  The same thing  happened with the JOAK-594 and 
JOIB-747 signals, so that the modified SRF-39FP  was basically acting like a 
"spotting receiver" for the ICF-2010, at least on  the QRM-free frequencies.  It 
was a blast to experience this bizarre  reversal of roles, after having used the 
ICF-2010 as a "spotting receiver" for  the stock ultralights.
 
     Every ultralight DXer should have this much  fun!
 
                                                                              
                         73,  Gary
