[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 1-13

[d1028gary@xxxxxxx]

Hello All,
 
Asian results here were very similar to Dennis's report, with TP's that were totally comatose at 1420 coming to life on both the low and high bands during a generous sunrise enhancement.
 
Not even a decent Asian carrier was around at 1420, but a second check at 1535 revealed a fair-level 603-HLSA with the music that Dennis mentioned, along with its weaker Chinese co-channel dropping in and out. Other low band stations that managed audio at this time were 594-JOAK (fair), 648-VOR (fair) and 693-JOAB (poor to fair). The high band was considerably more vibrant with 1377-CNR1, 1575-VOA and 1593-CNR1 all in and out with good signals from 1540-1600, although there were some domestic splatter issues here on 1377 and 1593. Best signal of the morning was an overachieving 1593-CNR1, which maintained good signals (in and out of 1590-Seattle splatter) right up until 1605.  By that time it was the sole Asian survivor here, although 972-HLCA had also been boosted by sunrise enhancement to carry on with fair signals until the 1600 TOH. Overall it was an unusual Asian morning, saved completely by an unusually potent sunrise propagation boost.
