Hello All, After yesterday's interesting session Asian propagation slumped back to this season's typical lackluster state this morning. As Dennis has reported, TP audio was primarily limited to the Japanese and Korean big guns, and they all bailed out about 40 minutes earlier than they did yesterday. At my 1300 start time there was good audio in and out from 594-JOAK, 693-JOAB, 972-HLCA and the 1053-Jammer, but the usual second-tier Asians on 603, 657 and 738 had no interest in showing up all session long. 747-JOIB and 828-JOBB joined the big gun revue with fair signals around 1330 but sounded very anemic in the domestic splatter. Yesterday's star performer 972-HLCA was mangled pretty badly by Portland's "Freedom 970" splatter all session long-- the opposite of yesterday's situation. The only somewhat unusual signal to show up was fair-level Chinese from 1593-CNR1 around 1335, which faded in and out of the Seattle splatter until it bailed around 1400. The collection of diehard big guns also slid into the noise by 1420 here, ending a pretty miserable session. 73 and Good DX, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA, USA) 7.5" loopstick Tecsun PL-380 Ultralight + 15" FSL antenna _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca
