[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 11-18

[d1028gary@xxxxxxxxxxx]

As Colin has reported Asian signals improved once again this morning, producing the best session of the entire month here.ÂThe NHK big guns on 593, 693, 747 and 774 managed good audio during peaks from 1430-1450, as well as theÂKorean regulars on 972 and 1566. In addition several less common low-band Asians made fair appearances during peak sunrise enhancement around 1440, including 558-HLQH, 603-HLSA, 657-Pyongyang and a presumed 738-BEL2.ÂWeak echoes from the 1035-CRN1 synchros rounded out the session around 1455. 
 
Favorable Asian propagationÂwas already in full swing at my 1430 start time, with 603-HLSA, 657-Pyongyang and 1035-CNR1 in and out with fair audio, as well asÂgood signals from 594-JOAK, 747-JOIBÂand 1566-HLAZ. Other Japanese big guns on 774 and 828 were also in and out at decent levels, and 738 (presumed BEL2) was at threshold level. 603-HLSA managed several fair peaks with its pop music and deep-voiced male host // 558 from 1435-1445, while 657-Pyongyang's female tiradeÂsignal fought it out with 660 domestic splatter. 738 came upÂto a fair peak around 1450 with some Chinese speech in the KCBS splatter, butÂnot distinct enough to recognize the usualÂvoices. Late on the poorly-synchronized 1035-CNR1 stations made a weak appearance around 1455, but didn't stick around for long. The session was tapering off around 1500, with only 972-HLCA managing fair to good peaks as the propagation fizzled out. Overall the session was a dramatic improvement over the lackluster results forÂmost of November, and one of the better mornings of the entire season.ÂÂÂÂÂÂ
