[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 2-20

[d1028gary@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Hello All, 
 
Low band Asians were theÂattraction of the morning here, with signals potent enough for anybody who might be in Grayland even to delay a visit to the Blue Bouy. Both 594-JOAK and 603-HLSA were vibrant enough to catch some serious attention around 1440, with the 603 Chinese co-channel also making an unusual winter appearance. 
 
Right fromÂmy start at 1430 the NHK big guns on 594, 693, 747, 774 and 828 were much stronger than their typical February strength, with 594-JOAK setting the pace with very good signals in and out. 603-HLSA wasn't far behind at 1440, with good-level Korean pop music hosted by KBS2's deep-voiced male. During strong peaks its Chinese co-channel (Hulun Buir?) also chimed in with female speech at a poor level. 693-JOAB and 747-JOIK also hit some very good peaksÂduring peak sunrise enhancement around 1445, while 972-HLCA and 1134-KBS were in and out with good-levelÂmale and female Korean speech. The high band didn't seem to share very much in the propagation bonanza, althoughÂ1503-JOUK, 1566-HLAZ and 1593-CNR1 all had brief moments of fair audio for anyone patient enough to sit on their frequencies from 1440-1500.ÂDespite the potent low band propagation Asians signals once again started making an early exit around 1510, with the final survivorsÂon 594 and 693 finally diving into the noise around 1515. With such healthy TP signals showing up at this mediocre location, Bill mayÂwell have another morning of interesting Perseus recordings to sort through.
