[IRCA] TP for 7 Oct 2011 from Victoria: Very good Asiatic

[Walter Salmaniw <canswl@xxxxxxxxx>]

Listened this morning from 13:12 to 14:19 UTC.  As soon as I looked at the
screen (Nick's DX Fishbarrel), it was very apparent that this would be a
good morning, and indeed it was.  SF 124, A 8, K (12:00) 2.  No space
weather past 24, nor any predicted next 24 hours.  Impressive Asia opening
with some armchair levels on many first tier JJ stations.  In fact, what I
heard was mostly Japan.  The dawn enhancement was pronounced, but again,
mainly Japanese with a very modest DU appearance.  LW even wasn't too bad,
and SQM 529 was very well heard this morning (a rarity for me these days).
 A always, "6" (threshold audio) unless otherwise stated:

LW:  153 - 6, 189 - 7, 234 - 6, 279 - 7  All at 13:39.  My LW is very noisy
(could be in my shack or a neighbour), but when rechecked at 13:39, the
noise was way down.
