Gary: While you are probably correct about the TP DX season ending early this fall, deep down I hope you are wrong. It has never really started here in heartland. I listened on 1566 and 1593 this morning hearing not a trace of a signal. Last evening I was listening to WGN 720 when its signal suddenly died, around 0545 UTC, covered up by an unidentified Mexican (probably XEDE) for about 15 minutes. By this morning things appeared to back to normal with CBW, CKOM and CKRM are coming through as usual.
If you get a chance give us a brief summary of how the 15-inch FSL compares with the smaller ones. Good DX.

It seems like this year's "Fall Season" will wrap up well before the end of Fall. 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 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] _______________________________________________ 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]
