[IRCA] TP DX in Seattle on October 14

[Bruce Portzer <bportzer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well let's see ..... Colin said today's TPs were worse today than 
yesterday and Gary said they were similar.  So it only makes sense that 
I would see a huge improvement.  And I didn't even do a thing to my 
antenna.   This was one of the better TP days this season here, even 
though I mostly had the usual suspects checking in. Taiwan 1557 made its 
first appearance of the season, and several TP signals gallantly tried 
to fight their  way through local splatter (including something on 621).
