Dennis,
You have some really good ideas about TP- DX on pocket radios, and I'm
sure that when conditions improve, you and I (and hopefully others) will have
a lot of fun with these thrilling contacts.
I agree with you that a TP has to be about an "8" level (on the R8 with

Has anyone heard from Patrick lately? I e-mailed him early Sunday morning as

Around 12:40 PM I noticed WWKB with an open carrier, and at least two
stations underneath. One IDed as WTHE, seemingly with a high-energy gospel
music program. I've often heard this station in the early morning without
an ID, so it was nice to finally hear it.

Hello All,
Like Colin, I almost received new-TP audio on the SRF-59 this morning.
During the storm (and finding it tough to sleep), I checked the band around
0930 UTC, and found very nice audio from HLAZ-1566, obviously peaking at its
local sunset. These peaks usually drop out witho

I just talked to Partick and he going to spent one more night in Astoria as the
wind is still 80-100 MPH. He said that he was going home but had to turn
around as the wind was just to strong and could not see the road with the wind
and heavy rain. All power is out along with the phone lines.

From 0400 to 0430 UT, only noticeable carriers here were 1215 (with
a SAH), and 999, which is a bit unusual.
