How quickly the 1575 jammer became part of the landscape, eh?
Next stop, Puyallup? Gary, I think that a
barefoot ultralight might hear it. After all,
didn't Guy Atkins hear Farda on an ultralight?

My experiences have been very similar to
Gary's. I get lots of carriers but not a lot
of audio.  I hear little bits of audio when
you guys are reporting good audio on the same
frequencies. Some of it may be a higher noise
floor at my house, but that's not necessarily the whole story.
It's not just limited to TAs. A few years
ago you and Walt heard a DX test on 960 from
Ontario, which was a total no-show here, so it
would appear that Victoria has an advantage in
that direction. On the surface, the salt water
path seems to be an advantage for you.

That's really interesting, Gary.  I will
not make any jokes about the US border
protection agency, and move directly into the realm of real speculation.
Victoria city looks out over about 20-60km of
salt water along the bearings for Europe and
the Middle East. I would have thought that
the fact that I'm 5 km or so from the water on
those bearings would negate that advantage,
but perhaps there is more to learn. I think I
feel an experiment coming on:Â we have a park
with about a 40m high cliff (a little one, I
know) facing out in a TA direction...
best wishes,

Great job with the new catches from the Middle
East, Nick! Unfortunately most of what is
being reported in Victoria seems to be held up
at the border crossing. Some threshold audio
on 864 showed up here about an hour ago, but
other than that it's just been carriers at this challenged location.
