[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!
