Thanks Nick,
I have been watching your propagation reports from Victoria (usually including
several DU's each morning) and was very curious how Fiji's blowtorch signal
would make the trip to Vancouver Island this morning. Apparently it didn't make
the trip very well at all. Bill W. will be in this area in a couple of days,
and have a chance to hear this rejuvenated Pacific island wonder for himself.

A first look at the recordings from this morning shows little other
than a carrier on that channel here in Victoria Gary. Our sunrise
is a few minutes earlier than yours, but nothing much a few minutes
earlier either.
There was a tentative audio on 558 with weak island music on 30 July,
but that seems to have been it so far.
best wishes,
Nick
