Hi - Congrats to all that landed new stations last night. Wondering if many were on day power late due to the Midwest Blizzard? I had many stations underneath the clears but no time to ID any of them (tentative on New Ulm, MN on 860). The Blizzard of 78 saw many daytime stations in IL, OH and

Hi Chris, I'll answer your question, but copy the list, too, since some others may be wondering about this. Delicast requires some self-orientation, that's for sure. The list of stations is in a screwy order, so I immediately relist it according to NAME on the tab above the list.

Again, sunrise enhancement was a misnomerseveral visits to the radio over 1420 to 1600UT showed only carriers for the most part, with the big guns occasionally showing wretched audio in the splatter. Below 600 kHz was very quiet this morning at 1600UT, so weak NHK-1 audio was heard on 567

Hi Nick, Thanks for your report of this morning's TP's. Early this morning around 0900 UTC there was also fair audio here on 594, 738, 747 and 972 kHz, plus decent carriers on 666, 1053 and 1134 kHz. This was far more impressive than the local sunrise period, but still probably not worth

As others noted, very little TP action this morning. Did note audio on 1575 and weakly on 1539 at 1500, but I suspect those were mid-east in origin. On the positive side, with the long hours of darkness now the TAs are getting ever earlier, and thanks to some automated DX, I noted audio

Walt and Nick, 1575-Radio Farda audio was also heard here around 0130, but was much more modest (not because of propagation, but because of a local TIS on 1580, and a semi-local KZIZ-1560). These two pests make it tough here for this common TA, and any signal on 1575 needs serious strength

Thanks Gary. 1377 is pretty much out here, other than a het on rare occasions, because of local KAST-1370, 5.9 miles away. The NE EWE is aimed right at KAST too. Fortunately they are narrow in signl and talk. Rather weak considering the distance though. Noted Iceland 189 a bit later too, but
