[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 2-3
Hello All, Asian reception wasn't bad at all this morning-- as long as you like 1566-HLAZ. The big gun Korean station blasted in with a huge signal around 1518 to reach its strongest level of the new year, while most of the other Asians struggled to reach audio level at all. At my 1430 start time it was already pretty obvious that the session was going to be an HLAZ show, with the station at a fair to good level in the darkness while no other Asians were managing better than a weak carrier. Around 1450 some low and middle band TP's started making a halfhearted attempt at audio, with 594-JOAK and 972-HLCA managing some poor to fair peaks in domestic splatter. 1593-CNR1 also started flirting with audio around the same time, but none of these came close to HLAZ's potent signal. Around 1518 its Chinese Christian service hit a monster peak, with the new C.Crane Skywave signal level bar graph pegged for the duration. 1593-CNR1 was a poor second at the time, struggling to get out of the Seattle splatter for more than a few seconds at a time. Overall the session was truly a one-station show, with sunrise enhancement boosting 1566-HLAZ's signal to one of the strongest levels ever heard here in Puyallup. 1566 HLAZ Jeju, S.

Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] 1485 Diego Garcia
Paul, I picked up this station on April 22nd 1979 while living in Australia. I was on a DX-pedition to Port MacDonnel in South Australia right on the coast. There were three of us on this trip Sam Dellit, Harry Weatherley and myself listening on our Drake SPR-4's in those days with 600 metres beverage to Africa. That same morning we also logged 746 Voice of Kenya, 1368 Radio Seychelles, and Radio Vatican 1530, plus a lot of other Asians and African station. I have a recording some place on my tapes, will need to dig it up! Thanks for the memories!!

[IRCA] TP DX in Seattle on Feb 3
Conditions today were about average by winter 2015 standards. Once again, I only had a few pathetic little carriers below 1300 kHz. Above 1300, things were a lot better with several tantalizing carriers almost producing audio and some with weak audio. HLAZ was the strongest of the lot, though not as spectacular as what Gary described. The most interesting catch was on 1422, where a Chinese speaker took the place of the expected JORF.

[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 3 February 2015
HLAZ was also the top dog here, although all that really meant in my case was it was the only station with audio for most of the session. It was at a fair level for most of the time I listened between 1425 and 1445. The VOA did show up for about 5 minutes on 1575 around 1435, but that was all there was for audio. 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, Alberta ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
