[IRCA] mid-ocean report 14 Sept

2009-09-14 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
Still haven't had time to go over yesterday's logs, and had to jury rig an
antenna this morning as my old one needed to come down.

So, this morning was still pretty good, but much more of an emphasis on
Australia and even New Zealand (e.g. Trackside Radio on 1476 //1485), but still
a lot of Chinese and Japanese and Koreans (how about N. Korea u/ Hawaiian
semi-local  on 1080?) as well; no India, but can't have everything.  Some
signals remained even 45 minutes after sunrise...obviously the lack of
electrical noise from the now silenced scientific equipment has a very positive
effect.

That's the end of this DXpedition.  Mixed feelings, as it's good to be starting
home in spite of leaving the DX behind.

Thanks for your tropical reports, Nick.  Perhaps you'll be bringing some exotic 
DX home with you!  Walt
