Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 9-3

Hi Nick,

<<<    Did you check 1143 this morning Gary?    Remember, you have a 
pipeline to Taiwan, and if I'm hearing something (I was, just.)    >>>

I was listening this morning (and noticed a significant improvement in Asian signals), but 1143 wasn't one of the frequencies I checked, unfortunately. I did have moderate audio from 594-JOAK, 738-Tahiti, 828-JOBB, 972-HLCA, 1134-KBS and 1575-VOA from 1310-1330 (during our peak morning enhancement). I guess that's fairly normal for an early September morning, but my main challenge seems to be in getting excited about chasing these Asian big guns again every day, after DU-DXing on the Oregon cliffs this summer :-)

73, Gary

Did you check 1143 this morning Gary?    Remember, you have a 
pipeline to Taiwan, and if I'm hearing something (I was, just.)  then 
you're probably hearing quite a bit more, hi.   But you're right, the 
Asians have been anemic and erratic; you have to be there when they 
fade up, briefly.

best wishes,

Nick
