Hello All, Thanks to Nick, for his accurate summary of this morning's TP propagation. Here the situation apparently had more initial drama, but the finally same lackluster result. Around 1455 the band seemed fairly promising here, with moderate audio on all the usual suspects (594, 603, 639, 648, 657, 738, 747 and 828 kHz), and even some fairly decent carriers on second-tier frequencies like 684 and 729 kHz. Typical during this morning's initial period was this audio from the lady on the 648-Voice of Russia Chinese service, which was about the best signal that VOR has had here so far in December: _http://www.mediafire.com/?mzwwvjj2cty_ (http://www.mediafire.com/?mzwwvjj2cty) Even though at 1455 the TP's were similar to their strength during the great session two days ago, however, unlike December 1st they all went in an opposite direction after 1500, diving down into the noise. The VOR signal was a weak carrier by 1505, and all the "powerhouse" TP's were wispy carriers by 1515. Thanks to Bruce and Nick for their comments yesterday, which were much appreciated. I guess like Bruce says, it's better to be positive about the TP audio we still have during this "doldrum" month, rather than complain about it :-) 73, Gary DeBock Spotting receiver: Modified ICF-2010 Main receiver: Modified C.Crane SWP ultralight (7.5" Slider loopstick + CFJ455K5 IF filter) 9' and 7.5' (side) PVC tuned passive loops (in the 23 degree back yard) _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca
