Asian signals recovered somewhat this morning, led by the Japanese and Korean big guns. Results here seemed a little less impressive than those reported by Dennis, though, with only a few second-tier TP's showing up with audio.
My session started off at 1255 with the 1566-North Korean jammer all alone on the frequency at a fair level, without a trace of HLAZ. Increasing daylight around 1335 brought the usual big guns on 594, 693, 747, 774, 972 and 1053 up to good levels in and out, but besides these only 603-HLSA (fair), 657-Pyongyang (poor) and 1134-JOQR (fair) made it out of the noise until a late run around 1400 by a presumed 738-BEL2 (poor). With the exception of a potent 972-HLCA around 1347 (and at other times) there weren't very many energetic signals here this morning, as Asian propagation still seemed to be in the recovery mode. Overall the session was lackluster, but still a distinct improvement over yesterday. 972 HLCA Dangjin, S. Korea Very good level Korean female and male speech at 1347, but certainly could use some freedom from "Freedom 970" https://app.box.com/s/cbdx1azy9sj297vgbm99fz4uhregsfr0 73 and Good DX, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA, USA) 7.5" loopstick C.Crane Skywave 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]
