[IRCA] Puyallup, WA TP's for 10-29... 594 khz Korean Mystery



Hello All,
 
Conditions in general were nothing to shout about, with the sunrise peak  
seeming to provide a less and less benefit as the month progresses.  The best 
signals seemed to be around 1345 this morning, although the  band received 
a modest boost around 1430.
 
594 kHz again had an equal mix of JOAK and a Korean-language  station this 
morning around 1425, with the Korean station playing KBS-type  music, but 
the signal was up and down, making it tough to check the 603 kHz  KBS parallel 
(which was mixing with 603-China, of course). This JOAK co-channel  was 
first noted about a week ago, and seems to show up only during the sunrise  
peak enhancement period. Another MP3 of the mix was recorded, but still nothing 
 to positively ID the Korean. 
 
Other than that mystery, the JOPG-585 weak co-channel was also back  around 
1432 playing some instrumental music, but didn't have enough strength to  
provide any real clues. Once again the high band and mid band seemed well 
down  in strength from its peak October days, and only the low band frequencies 
had  some interesting signals. Hopefully things will improve before John 
heads to  Grayland-- I remember the phenomenal conditions that Guy Atkins and 
I had around  this time last year in Grayland (November 2), when Guy 
received 1575-Radio Farda  on a stock Sony SRF-39FP ultralight. Good luck, John!
