[IRCA] Puyallup, WA TP's for 9-16.. Nice Again

[D1028Gary@xxxxxxx]

Hello All,
 
Strong Asiatic TP conditions continued for a second day here, with good  
reception of low-band Asians from 1325-1340 (very similar to yesterday).
 
Besides the usual audio from 639, 657, 666, 693, and 738 (Taiwan Fisheries  
again, not Korea), there was very good audio from 675-VOV (Vietnam), from 
which  I was finally able to record an MP3 without the usual 680 splatter 
(large loop  antennas love to null out pests, but the nulls are much better 
outdoors, rather  than next to the bed :-)  I'll upload this morning's 675-VOV  
recording to the Ultralightdx Yahoo file site, to replace a weaker one 
recorded  last year on a stand-alone E100 Slider model.
 
As usual, the ability to tune 1 kHz down from the 680 splatter made a huge  
difference in the reception of 675-VOV, on the C.Crane SWP Slider. The 
recording  was actually made on 674 kHz, but there was negligible drop-off in 
Vietnam's  audio when tuning down 1 kHz, on this favorite hot-rodded 
Ultralight.
 
73, Gary
