Didn't really have time this morning for listening, some checks between 1230 and 1300UT, but definitely sounded different from yesterday. Signals were more erratic and more inclined to be DU, and certainly weaker. Later, I found out that a small geomagnetic storm had taken place.
pretty darn good audio (at least briefly): none reasonable audios (though often battling w/splash or noise): 594, first worthwhile signal this season oddly enough 774 at various times 828 // 774 briefly (all Japan, in spite of higher K index) not so reasonable audio, occasional words in splash or noise: 612 Burbles in the splatter and noise: 567 Asia, likely Japan, becoming DU later 693 //774 JJ 747 //774 JJ 963 (2 stations; DU and China?) 1224 1314 1332 1575 1593 (many of these were hard to find direction, but seemed DU) Strongish het, no audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter): (DU unless noted) 738 , 972 (Asia), 1098, 1548, 1611 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]
