Re: [IRCA] TA's into central PA tonight

[neilkaz <neilkaz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is sounding very promising as I head to Grafton WI for 3 nights of DXing tomorrow and Bill Whitacre will be visiting Tues. So far in earlier August I haven't been impressed by TA's into WI and in comparison to previous years this early this is worse than 2010 and even 2008. 2009 was the best and 2010 and 2008 about the same.

Brett congrats on Iran 1503. I've only had decent audio on them once in Grafton and weak audio from here in Barrington IL. I think they are quite undermodulated. Perhaps they've improved as there seems to be a general upgrading of Iranian txs.  73 KAZ
