Hello All, As Dennis has surmised the Asian propagation was generally miserable this morning, although there was one Chinese high-band station that certainly went against the trend. 738-Tahiti also showed up at fair strength around 1350 to provide a little variety to what was generally a clunker session. At my 1300 start time the band was completely comatose, with no Asian stations even managing weak carriers. By 1315, however, the rather unusual high band Chinese station 1593-CNR1 started fading in with fair audio, generally maintaining its strength (through Seattle splatter) throughout the entire session. None of the other Asians ever came close to this audio level, although 594-JOAK, 603-HLSA and 972-HLCA did manage brief poor signals at peak sunrise enhancement around 1400. 738-Tahiti was also in and out with French YL speech and music around 1350, a sure sign of auroral conditions here. That was generally the story of a very miserable session, and Dennis probably made the correct choice in bailing out early. 1593 CNR1 Changzhou, China Chinese YL speech at fair level in and out of Seattle splatter around 1328; this bizarre station was hanging around for most of the session, when almost all of the other Asians were comatose http://www.mediafire.com/listen/jaam5zs4nfbfxee/1593-CNR1-1328z101514PL380.MP3 73 and Good DX, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA, USA) 7.5" loopstick Tecsun PL-380 Ultralight + 15" FSL antenna _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca
