Re: [IRCA] TP DX in Seattle on Feb 4



It wasn't a matter of missing the later low band peak - I checked the SDR files and there was nothing on the lower part of the dial after about 1400, let alone at 1500 or 1530.

And, different again up here Bruce. One similarity is that the upper band peaked early, but I had a later lower band peak that you missed....and there was little here before 1500UT.

It never fails. Whenever I compare my TP DX with Dennis and Gary's reports, it's like we're talking about different days.

Today was really interesting in several ways. The upper and lower halves of the band behaved completely differently. Signals below about 1100 peaked early, at about 1300 give or take an hour. Several NHK stations produced half-hearted audio. HLCA-972 and KICY-850 were briefly quite good. Otherwise, there wasn't much to be heard even though the meager TP reception was better than it's been in a while.

The upper part of the dial had its best moments at about 1500. The sunrise enhancement took place about a half hour earlier than on previous days, roughly 1455-1510. There were carriers on many frequencies, but only a few had audio. The CNR stations on 1377 and 1593 had their best appearances in quite a while.
