[IRCA] Kona TP/DU November 15
Full report coming -- I listening from 0930 to about 1015 UTC before I went to bed... and it was chock-a-block up and down the dial with JJ, Russian, Aussie, KK, CC and some Island stuff. Doing things a little differently -- not really referring to any guides directly (WRTH, PAL, etc) just listening, noting times, frequencies and details... such as language and QRM if any. I can sort of see how Hawaii ties in with the rest of the WCNA scene -- as, however "strong" the signals are (they are not gangbusters by any means...) they simply have very little interference from here in the Hawaiian Islands - and there are wild variations between days. And what is also interesting is the kind of WC reception I am getting - how little of it most of the time... Heading to HILO next week for another angle on the mainland. -- ..
