[IRCA] TP report from Victoria, BC for 24Sep2012

Not a particularly exciting morning, but still a few stations of interest. SF 134, A2, K0 Nothing heard from DU this morning. For the first time this season, for me at least, 279 was present with weak audio, although my setup is pretty noisy in the LW region. The Japanese were mostly attenuated

TP conditions down this morning. Even the big Japanese powerhouse stations had a hard time producing audio here. Mystery station on 1476 showed up this morning for a much longer period and with a better signal. Almost fair at times in what seems to be a Asian language? Could this be the new

Hello All, Overall it was another lackluster TP-DXing session this morning, with a few strange variations from yesterday. Around 1300 almost all the of the Asiatic TP's sounded comatose, but a late rally during peak sunrise enhancement (around 1335 here) brought most of the Asian mainland

I'm beginning to wonder about the mid-September anomaly. The various indices stayed low (barring a small burp in the solar wind density), yet things were quite sparse and erratic, and signals were generally weaker than they have been. Maybe the skip zone is part way between China and

I'd have to agree with Gary's description this morning, lackluster. (though, being north of the border, it would be lacklustre to me!). A bit unusual in that 747 and 774 from Japan were actually doing quite well here, but the other big guns were mere carriers. The only other one with

Small (but rather important) correction Paul-that's Burns, Oregon NOT Oklahoma. I was scratching my head trying to figure out where on earth Burns Oklahoma could be that it would be far enough from Guymon to allow a station to inhabit the same clear channel. Sincerely, Earl Higgins RX-321 and

While the last three times I heard it, I was sure it was a carrier on 1279 kHz only, tonight I am just as sure that it`s also on 1281, i.e. instead of an off-frequency station, someone on-frequency with a 1 kHz tone, 0520+ UT Tuesday Sept 25. (So unlikely to be findable in the daytime, but tnx
