With KCIS off (or on very low power backup--the religious music?) ,I wonder 
what was going on with CHED Edmonton which sometimes shows up under KCIS.Not a 
trace  I did get a temporary rise out of Boise ID but it soon fell back into 
the mud again.Unusual conditions on 630.Bill in

 Also heard lots of hets and I thought I heard a foreign language come in with 
a very strong whistle on 747. Too bad the splits are sitting in between some 
very "busy"domestic channels. Imagine what the possiblities would be if  the 
TAs and TPs were located on the 5s halfway between the North American Freqs.

Bill

I checked 630 after seeing your original e-mail last night.  At about 
9:30 PST, KCIS was its usual strong self.  It sounded about normal 
strength here whenever I checked after that.  So it may have either been 
weird conditions or elese they had problems earlier in the evening.

Bruce,

That is odd. I tried after Midnight and had CHED alone on the channel
for a time. I wonder if it was cx or did KCIS go off? I never hear CHED
These days dominant. If I hear it, it is buried u/KCIS. So maybe the
soft rel mx I heard was a weak KCIS?
KCIS normally is on top off the NE/NW EWEs.

73,

Patrick
