[IRCA] TPs, OCT 13: Its an Ill Wind.....

["John H. Bryant" <bjohnorcas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Wow, just awful conditions.... my 60 minutes per dawn sweep (1310 UT) 
was the worst that I've had this year, even counting the few times 
that I checked in late August.  The aurora has just got to be kicking 
up.... I had no decent audio at all and only a couple that were at 
threshold. WOW!

However, st dawn enhancement, as I stooged around feeling sorry for 
myself (and for the guys on DXpedition in northern Norway) I stumbled 
on to a narrow opening to the Taiwan/Philippines area. There was 
little fading on the signals and they were all fairly weak (and above 
1000 kHz.)

I had what I'm almost certain was DXAM on 1017; BED97, Family Radio 
in CC on 1098; DZAT or maybe DYAB on 1512 and WYFR from Taiwan in EE 
on 1557. The latter is the most common, but still only the second 
time I've heard them this year.

Strange, strange morning.
