Thanks to Richard, Nick and Colin for their comments on the skewed TP-DX propagation this morning. Thanks to Bill also for his report from Arizona.
<<< One gets the sense that some North Korean techs have been deployed to tighten up the antenna hardware because 657 has not been this good AND regular in years. >>> I would have to agree, Colin. 657-Pyongyang's signals have dramatically improved since a year ago, even though they were always one of the stronger second-tier Asians here (unfortunately). Either they've improved their antenna, or surreptitiously boosted transmitter power. After all, when you don't care about any international agreements, why limit yourself to 1,500 kW?
