[IRCA] TP 4 Dec Victoria version

Just about to send this when I read Nigel's loggings. Talk about another planet, hi. Basically things died after about 1400UT here. I had some recordings from earlier, and indeed there were some old standby stations, a couple at reasonable level. pretty darn good audio (all of it unders

My TP DX was amazingly similar to Gary's today. I had a brief opening at about 1545 UT, highlighted by fair audio on 1575 and marginal audio on 1566. There were also carriers on 1557, 1593, and 1602, with no sign of any TPs below 1550. Bruce

Like Gary I noted improvement this morning, but I'd go a bit farther and say quite dramatic improvement. Actually the best morning here for several weeks. Rather unusual too in that Japan didn't seem to be a factor. There were so-so carriers on 594, 693, 774 etc. but nothing approaching

This last summer the Drake R8 had problems and did not work very well so this week I sent it to John Kriner in Ohio for repair.  The turn around for repair is 4-6 weeks so for now I will be using the ICOM IC-R75.  The R75 is nice but it is not a Drake R8! Bill Block Prescott Valley, AZ   --

A couple of high band Asians actually managed ghostly audio this morning around 1545 after rising from the dead late in sunrise enhancement. Both 1566 and 1575 hit threshold level for a few minutes each, despite the fact that neither had even registered a carrier prior to 1515. Not exactly an es

All barely there if that qualifies - and at the same time, the FB shows the exact same thing... Most days I feel that chopping down the trees that hold the antennas would improve the reception. When I put up the Flag antenna, I thought I could hear anything at anytime. Now I hear largely nothi
