I know the DU at the coast has been weaker than last year at this
time. Im still looking for the cw music on 909khz that I heard last
year at this time.
The Asian signals are there but they show up at the last second 6am
local time. I did happen to find my ground rods that I left behind
last year (rusty but holding on). I think I have found a truly a
magical spot for DX thanks to the (GE) Garry effect (elevation on top
of the cliff). Could this be the grayland of California?. Maybe Gary
or Guy could stray a few miles south for some DX fun in the shadow of
the giants? (KGO KSFO and others)What has Pat Martin(aka golden ears)
been hearing so far? I really must thank Gary, Nick, Walt for thier
help with this DXing thing...I couidnt have done it with out you guys.
Next trip to the coast will be on Friday I hope.
Thank you.....

Hi Nigel,
Well, it's just as strange here-- there hasn't been a trace of a DU
showing
up here all season. The Asiatic TP's have been pretty anemic so far,
but
at least they are daily visitors.
Nick and Derek seem to have much better reception of DU's than me,
probably
because of their salt water environments. This location seems to be a
DU-dead zone, compared to them.

It's very interesting how Steve and Nigel seem to live in a
"parallel
universe," receiving DU's while the coastal dwellers get TP's.
None of
those
DU's reported by Steve or Nigel ever produce a trace here in
Puyallup.
Some of
them were common in Lincoln City, Oregon two weeks ago, though.
I'd been thinking the same thing Gary, and waiting for some
convergence. Doesn't seem to be happening yet though. The lack of
TPs
isn't from a lack of trying, but it's been pretty well nil thus far.
Oh well, I've been enjoying the DUs, so will take what comes.

Nigel
