you wish for, Colin. A dead band totally free of 657-Pyongyang has a lot going for it. Gary - Original Message - From: "R. Colin Newell" To: "Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America" Sent: Friday, October 28, 2016 8:52:03 AM Subject: R

We had it so bad in Victoria, it was like listening to a shoe box with wire wrapped around it or a rolled up newspaper. 612 or 702? Luxury! Our dials were devoid of signals, audio or heterodynes of any kind. Ah, but we had it tough. We dreamed of being in Puyallup with Gary, standing in the cold

No Asian audio or even carriers showed up here in this DU-dead zone this morning, resulting in another total shutout. Most likely the Victoria DXers will at least come away with audio on 612 and 702, but the only DU audio available here is on MP3's from summer visits to Rockwork 4 . The file rev

Hello All, Yesterday's superb Asiatic conditions dropped off somewhat here this morning, as the band seemed to slide back toward its typical lackluster state. There was another decent sunrise enhancement (and propagation lasting until around 1450), but unlike yesterday, very few of the TP's ma

Hello All, Asiatic signals rebounded somewhat during a pre-sunrise early session this morning, with several "big gun" TP's strong enough to produce vibrant audio on the "barefoot" 7.5" loopstick SWP Slider model. Even though nothing new or rare was heard during this 1300-1350 period,
