[HCDX] ClewistonUSA - THUR LOGS

[<ka4prf@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Peru, 6019.37, Radio Victoria, 0945-1000,  Noted a male in Spanish
language religious comments.  This person is the usual Preacher that is
often heard on Radio Victoria at this time.   This is a very difficult log
since Victoria is under the station on 6020 KHz, probably Australia. To hear
Victoria with the receiver's USB activated, there was a need to notch
out Australia's carrier using the tracking notch on the NRD545, then
zero beat Victoria's carrier which produced a weak audio.  Everything
is covered by 0958 when Australia plays music. I haven't heard
Victoria for awhile.  Don't know if they've been off or
condx were bad?  Either way, the station was threshold today.

Noted a lot of Lightning crashes after 1030  UTC.  Haven't had
that particular noise so far this year, as I recall.  It's a sure
sign that summer  condx are upon us.  Checking the national
weather, the only  storms on the map were near New
Orleans and in that area. Everywhere else was clear.
That's a real good example of how far the"noise" or crashes
from lightning can travel. Although the storm is over 600
miles away, it's still a reminder that I better start
unplugging the antenna from my receiver when
it's not in use.  Florida is still the "Lightning Capital
of (World?)".  True or false, we get a lot of it in the summer.
