I suspect that I missed the boat, having woken up at 12:05 UTC. Nevertheless I
rushed up to the radio room and was pleasantly surprised to hear a few audios,
and quite a few almosts (5s). Here are my results:
5: 567 855 936 1251 1287 1475, late appearances: 1116
6: 801
963 snippets at 12:24
1108
1107
738 late appearance around 12:17. ?English? Much stronger than 740 on
the Perseus SDR. (Great to have the waterfall on the SDRs!!!)
675 weak audio at 12:22
792 also a late appearance.
1503 snippets at 12:26
7: 567 weak audio (music) at 12:20. Only heard on my Conti corner fed south
loop (recently I doubled the height of the vertical components).
So from my perspective, the audios hung in much later than I noticed earlier in
the week. Can't comment how good things were, though, before 12:00. By the
way, the PNGs were coming in well on 90 meters, especially Radio East New
Britain on 3385, and Radio Manus on 3315 which were in parallel when first
tuned in around 12:20 (but no longer as I type this at 13:00). Also absolutely
no sign of the new 120 m Aussie on 2368.5 . Anyone else hearing anything
there? ......Walt Salmaniw, Victoria, BC
