Hello All,
In an otherwise modest morning, an unusually potent signal from 1575-VOA
provided some real excitement, reaching its best-ever level here during six
years of TP-DXing. The signal level from Thailand pounded in at its best around
1425, producing good audio on even the barefoot Tecsun PL-380 (the first time
it had ever managed any kind of signal here on a barefoot portable). As Dennis
also noted, there was a weak co-channel on 1575 under VOA, which had the
typical upbeat disco music of the low-powered AFN station in Japan (heard here
on rare occasions during previous years, in March). Other than the excitement
on 1575 kHz there wasn't too much else of interest-- only fair signals in and
out from 594-JOAK, 972-HLCA and 1566-HLAZ from 1410-1440. Despite the fact that
sunrise enhancement was a fizzler, the die-hard signal from 1575-VOA hung in
well past 1530 here, the latest that any TP audio has been heard during the
month of March.
