[IRCA] Puyallup, WA TP's for 9-17...Good Asian Morning

[D1028Gary@xxxxxxx]

Hello All,
 
Despite the drop off in Asian signals reported by Walt, the low-band TP's  
seemed to do very well here-- but as usual there was no trace of Walt's 
DU's.  HLSA-603 had a strong signal with Korean pop music at 1333 for a nice 
MP3, and  even had a weak co-channel TP underneath (sounded like Chinese, but 
too wispy to  be sure of the language). 657-Pyongyang had a booming signal at 
1328. Other than  that, a fairly good Asian morning here, with the 
following heard on the  hot-rodded C.Crane SWP Slider ultralight:
 
585  JOPG  fair NHK1 audio at 1321
594  JOAK  flamethrower signal as usual, throughout sunrise  enhancement
603  HLSA  strong with KK pop music at 1333, weak co-channel TP  in 
background
639  CNR1  good signal with Chinese news at 1335
648  Presumed VOR with threshold audio at 1336
657  Pyongyang another flamethrower at 1323, but with ragged carrier  as 
usual
666  JOBK strong NHK1 program at 1328
675  VOV good audio at 1330, but again troubled with 680  splatter
738  BEL2 another strong signal with ragged carrier, talk program at  1331
756  Presumed KBS with moderate audio at 1339
783  Moderate carrier at 1342 that never came to audio
936  China Anhui strong at 1343 with female-voiced news,  rivaling 639-CNR1 
for best Chinese signal
 
As usual during the brief sunrise enhancement here in DX-challenged  
Puyallup, there wasn't enough time to check all the other frequencies-- but it  
was fun while it lasted.
