[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 10-1

Needless to say, there was nothing quite as dramatic here as the recent DU audio received in Oklahoma, Michigan, Illinois and (gasp) near D.C. Asian signals improved somewhat over yesterday at this mediocre location but still seemed to be in a slight hangover after the recent solar tantrum. Once

Thanks to Nigel, Colin and Walt for their earlier reports. The situation here was similar to what Nigel and Walt reported, as Asian audio was primarily limited to the usual Japanese and Korean big guns. A few Chinese stations (on 1044, 1206, 1323 and 1593) made halfhearted appearances, but they

Hello All, Because of the active sun it was a very dreary TP-DXing morning here, with one strange exception. Most of the Asiatic big guns failed to even manage weak carriers during sunrise enhancement, and 738-Tahiti's signal stayed at a modest carrier level. It seemed like the morning would

Hello All, Low band TP propagation was excellent again this morning, although like others I noticed that the high band Asiatic signals were down somewhat in strength (compared to yesterday). Almost every 9 kHz low band channel had some type of audio this morning, and it was a challeng
