Re: [IRCA] NE Oregon TPs, Wednesday
With all this DU activity I need to try for them myself. I had Tahiti here
about 5 years ago a couple of times weakly in French and also pulled audio
out of 1098 Marshalls a couple times (need to get lucky and find them on a
bit late). Last season 702 was at threshold audio levels once..ie could tell
it was a muffled male voice but not good enough to tell lang.
Anyhow when the T-storms go away I'll see if a 350 ft BOG aimed about 245
deg is quiet enough..ie not much house noise as will be close to it.
My long BOGs at 273 deg are likely aimed a bit too far north for NZ/Tahiti
noting that they seem better for WA/OR/BC and but don't get KNX from LA as
often as the shorter ones (slightly wider beam) aimed the same way did.
My place up north in WI is better for DU as it is deathly quiet and I can
run longer wires at them. I scored 702 // 738 there a couple seasons ago and
had a few other hets.
Anyhow..others sb trying for Tahiti as it seems they've improved modulation
or tx.

This was probably the best TP morning here this year for low band MW
signals. Many lowband hets up to about 1000. Even 612 had presumed DU
audio
at 1300 utc, where I have S9 splatter from nearby 610 KONA. 576 very poor
unknown audio; 738 medium/loud Tahiti; 774 weak DU; 792 weak DU; 828
poor/weak DU; 855 weak DU; 891 weak DU; 1116 poor DU. 855 lasting the
longest with very poor DU audio at 1316.
Far East Russia, Radio Rossii, poorer today, 153, 180, 189, 234, 279 with
189 and 234 the best at 1210 utc.
