Listened this morning between 11:38 and about 14:30 and noted that things were substantially better than yesterday. Lot's of X-banders there in low audio, and some of the Russian LW stations. Last night, I did see the 1566 carrier at almost audio level around and after 05:00. Thanks to Nick Hall-Patch for reminding us of grayline possibilities! Using the QDFA aimed north worked fine for 1566, while I was seeing a somewhat weaker signal from RFO Tahiti on 738 aiming the Wellbrook array to the S/SW. As my Perseus was acting up (no, my laptop), I mostly used the AOR 7030+ this morning, starting at the top of the band and working down.......Walt

Also a comment on last night: Lot's of atmospheric noise! Par for summer, I suppose (which has arrived in Masset....temperatures in the upper 20s and a glorious sunset with pink/red skies after 22:00 local). That's it for now. Just a few days left before heading back to Victoria, and work........Walt in Masset. _______________________________________________ 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]
