Got a little extra snoozing in this morning, so didn't expect much when I checked the radio just after local sunrise, at 1445UT. At that time, 612 was still delivering reasonable audio, music and talk, and continued, though getting weaker, until past 1500. The only other audio was on 1575, pretty much unreadable talk, but also looped DU. Only carrier of note was 1098, also DU.
According to the propagation monitor, 1300 and 1420UT were the best signals for 612, so it would appear (as Steve R. noted) that I missed a good DU opening. There seems to have been a reasonable jump in the K index between 1200 and 1500UT, so perhaps this opening isn't as inexplicable as looking at the 1200UT K-index might indicate. best wishes, Nick ***************************** Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, BC Canada _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
