[IRCA] Puyallup, WA TP's for 10-28...Better

[D1028Gary@xxxxxxx]

Hello All,
 
The high band and mid-band TP's continued in the doldrums here, but there  
were some interesting signals on the low band.
 
At 1427 a strong co-channel was mixing with JOAK-594, apparently  the same 
one that John and others heard recently. There was KBS-type music  being 
played, and the language (mixing with JOAK's Japanese) certainly sounded  like 
Korean. A fairly decent MP3 was recorded, but the apparent Korean  faded 
later in the MP3 before the KBS // on 603 could be checked. Did  anybody else 
hear this station this morning? It was received on the 9' box loop,  which 
because of the near-freezing temperature would resonate down to 594  khz.
 
549 kHz also had the strongest carrier I've heard all season, but with  a 
very loud mix of KARI and KOAC on 550, the splatter was just too much to  dig 
out audio. 585 also had a mix of NHK 1 (JOPG) and another station, again  
weakly playing music not // to 594. This 585 kHz UnID is always weak,  even 
on a pretty good morning like today-- so it may stay unknown for quite  a 
while (unless John hears it at Grayland :-)
 
So that's about the story for a fairly decent morning here, at least on the 
 low band.
 
73, Gary DeBock
