I'm pretty sure John B. reported them from Grayland in June 2006, so maybe I need to see if those logs are somewhere around and pass them on to Chuck. Actually, after scanning through old DX Monitors (keyword "Canberra", rather than "2RN" which is the call letter for a number of channels), I found that Nigel Pimblett apparently hears 846 more often than we do on the coast....or at least he reports it! They've been heard a few times here at home in Victoria, but hardly qualify as even a second-string Aussie around here, so my recent tentative reception was a bit of a surprise given the lack of more common Aussies. And, Guy, you heard them at Ocean City State Park in 2005... 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]
