Hi Nick, <<< Very weak and sparse carriers again this morning. Hopefully conditions will improve as the time for DXpeditions approaches. >>>
Actually, Nick, for some unknown reason both of the Oregon cliff sites chosen for this month's DXpeditions seem to have a strange immunity to the DU propagation slowdowns that occur frequently near sea level. Over the last 3 DXpeditions to Rockwork and Cape Perpetua I've enjoyed very good South Pacific reception on 11 out of 11 days, although the favored areas of reception shift back and forth between New Zealand and Australia. 73, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA, USA) -----Original Message----- From: Nick Hall-Patch <n...@ieee.org> To: Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America <irca@hard-core-dx.com> Sent: Mon, Jul 8, 2013 8:34 am Subject: [IRCA] TP 8 Jul; Victoria version Very weak and sparse carriers again this morning.
