(not as good as hoped and nothing new unless I can pin down a song to KOVE 1330 WY) Lots of TA hets and some audios and some early sunset skip stations. (Of note ...KOMO 1000 nice thru WMVP phase, KFLD 870 decent, KOFI 1180 nice, presumed (hard to ID ESPN stns) and logged at least a dozen times KFXX 1080)

Hi, Kaz. 999 is usually (always) SS here. Rechecked at 04:24, and now I'm getting 1611 which is Vatican Radio with a 5 level het....they must sign-on later, since they're never there earlier. Other strong hets now are: 1449, 1377, 1269, 1215, 1206, 1089 (very strong carrier), 1008, 927, 855, 783, 774, 765 (very strong carrier...snippets audio), 675, 639 (very strong carrier), 621, and 531. Seems not quite as good as last night, where I had a half-dozen or so audios and hets on every channel. Good news about the NA pests tomorrow night. I'll be watching. Yes 1000 splatter is KOMO. I have a Misek phaser, but haven't turned it on this season so far....too much on my plate at the moment! 73s. I'll likely call it a night soon........Walt.
