Re: [IRCA] TP's for 08/26/10

[D1028Gary@xxxxxxx]

Hi Dennis,
 
Congratulations on your fine E100 Ultralight TP loggings from the Ocean  
Spray Beach Resort in Grayland. You certainly did a great job with the tiny  
radio, and the Space Magnet loop!
 
Our family also recently returned from an ocean beach trip to Lincoln City, 
 Oregon (August 20-22), during which the conditions mostly favored the DU  
stations, but with occasional Asiatic TP reception. From now on the DU's  
will probably get tougher to log, so it was nice to hear them with good  
strength one last time this season.
 
Thanks again for your Grayland TP-DX report, Dennis, and I hope you  
wouldn't mind if I re-post it on the Yahoo Ultralightdx list, where they  would be 
very interested in your E100 TP-DX loggings.
 
73, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA)

Good Morning,

My wife told me Tuesday that  she wanted to go to Grayland for her birthday.
Grayland Motel and cottages  had no vacancies, we were able to get a cottage
at Ocean Spray Beach Resort  a mile North of Grayland Motel and cottages.
Staying in cottage #6, which  is closest to the ocean, about 300 yards.
Nice picnic area behind the  cottage with two picnic benches.  Have two 
radios,
Palstar R-30cc and  Eton E100. Antennas are two Space Magnet loops.  A lot 
of 
noise in  the cabin, so I DX outside on the picnic bench from 1256-1346  
utc.
