Here on the Oregon Coast, cx stated out rather poor at 1300, but by 1330 peaked right up. The Tecsum barefoot had a local-like signal on 774, matching KGO in signal. On the R8 using the NW EWE, Vietnam 675 and 549 were both coming in 675 at S7-8 and 549 at S3-4. JOKR-954 and JOLF-1242 were also

Hi Patrick, Congratulations on your first Ultralight radio TP reception. With your location near the ocean beach (and your great TP-DXing experience), I'm sure that you could re-write our ULR TP-DXing record book, if you choose to do so :-) This morning (besides 774) I also had

Yep! Great day for Alaskans here in Masset, with 680 KBRW coming in well, and no sign of SF or Edmonton at around 14:00. Many others too. Also DW Sri Lanka on 1548, and hints of India on 1566. A different morning for sure!...Walt On 9/20/2010 7:44 AM, Patrick Martin wrote: Lots of

Hello All, Asian propagation this morning had an interesting pattern, as more and more Chinese stations produced fair audio across the MW spectrum, but without any increase in the big gun Asiatic TP strength. Somewhat rare (for here) 1053-Mandarin Chinese audio was received at 1333 at a

My experiences this morning were the exact opposite of Gary's. For me, the NHK big guns were stronger than they had been, and everything else was down a bit. The Chinese, in particular, were noticeably weaker than they were this past weekend. Alaskans were also in well, with a particularly
