It's certainly possible to receive TPs in the southeastern US. Ray
Moore has heard traces of TP DX from the Tampa Bay area in recent years,
including IDable audio from VOA-Thailand-1575. I can't recall what
other things he's heard.

With the amazing TA activity that's been cropping up in recent days, I thought
I'd start checking to see if any TP activity could be detected at my QTH here
in North Alabama.
Even thought this would be more difficult, I believe that TP reception here is
possible, especially due to the fact that one of the big gun Japanese stations
was heard by several DXers in the Central and Eastern U.S. last year.
I did a scan of frequencies at around 1130 UTC this morning for the higher
powered East Asians, and did note a moderate carrier on 747, as well as a
weak-but-steady carrier on 774. Although there's no way to tell if this was
Japan or even something Trans-Pacific, this certainly bears watching.
I would encourage all DXers - especially those in the Central and Eastern U.S. - to start checking for TPs (and TAs), and post their results here, on the DXtips listserver, or log onto the MWDX chat room to post results real-time.
Regarding the latter, that chatroom has been amazingly dead, even wiith the
band hopping with TAs ....
