Hi Michael, Nick and All, At the exact time that Michael reported his 738 kHz TP (1328) I had a huge signal from 738-BEL2 in Taiwan this morning, as well as a fair-level Mainland Chinese co-channel mixing with it at times. The signal from 738-Taiwan was at a monster level (one of the strongest it has ever managed here), so I would guess that Michael also was receiving it.
I also had Michael's 1143-Taiwan signal in at a fair level this morning at 1339, when he reported it. The programming on 1143-Taiwan (female CC monolog) didn't match that on 738-Taiwan (male CC hosted call-in talk program) at that moment, though. The 2013 WRTH indicates that 738-Taiwan has a BEL2 program, while 1143-Taiwan has a BEL3 program, so I guess that was confirmation that the parallel doesn't work. It was a wild sunrise session here this morning, and I'm still going over the TP recordings to sort out what happened. Thanks for your report, Michael, and it's great to have you in our TP-chasing group! 73, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA, USA) -----Original Message----- From: Nick Hall-Patch <[email protected]> To: Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America <[email protected]> Sent: Sat, Sep 21, 2013 8:46 am Subject: Re: [IRCA] TP Lions Bay BC 21 Sep 2013 Looks like you are seriously off to the races Michael. Don't worry about the DU's; they start to disappear in September, reappearing (maybe) if there is a good sized auroral disturbance. 738 w/CC often is Taiwan in these parts, see if you can parallel with 1143. best wishes, Nick At 14:59 21-09-13, you wrote: >Hi all - After a couple of very lacklustre days here, things picked >up considerably this morning.
