Hi Guy,
Thanks very much for your investigation, and I'm very pleased to log the
relatively obscure 846-2RN with the Ultralight gear in Lincoln City (and
record the MP3 with the RN identification).
Rather than give credit to the Ultralight, modest loop, or half-asleep
DXer, however, the credit should probably go to the South Pacific propagation
to Lincoln City, Oregon, which has repeatedly allowed reception of many
such obscure DU's on humble Ultralight gear this past month. I wish we had more
time to investigate the phenomena, but Asiatic TP's were already starting
to mix in with the DU's on 594, 657 and 666 kHz during the Lincoln City
trip last week.
Anyway, I sure know where I am headed for DU-chasing next summer :-)
73, Gary

Hi Gary,
Great job on catching 2RN with your ultralight radio setup. I took a look
in
the Grayland Master Log maintained by Chuck, and there are only two
confirmed loggings of 2RN shown. One was in 1997 by David Clark (heard //
792 and 585), and the 2nd instance was a log by Jean Burnell (// 792).
