Walt and Others, The difference in TP and DU propagation between John and the rest of us seems really bizarre. I had no trace of any TP audio this morning, but had decent audio from 738-Tahiti (1255) and threshold audio from 639-Fiji (despite a seriously under-modulated signal). 648-Rhema was also close to audio. These three DU's only stuck around for about 10-15 minutes, then fizzled out. During the three times I have checked the band within the past week, these three stations always seem to fade up quickly around 1250, then fizzle out quickly. Even when I check other big-gun Kiwi frequencies, they never seem to join in the party. (567 is hopeless because of semi-local KVI-570). Maybe I should just be thankful to receive DU's here at all-- until this week, they seemed like a lost cause here in Puyallup. The new 8' passive loop helps a lot, but it seems to have a really bizarre preference for these three stations, no matter what other DXers are hearing :>) 73, Gary In a message dated 8/23/2009 11:20:56 A.M.

I was just about totally DU this morning as well....Walt _______________________________________________ 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] _______________________________________________ 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]
