Craig, Thanks for another great, detailed TP-DX report from Kalaloch. This is one of the most extensive ocean coast session reports that I've ever seen from a live DXer.
<<< This morning’s session saw a nice uptick in TP stations received. For a minute I was wondering if this location predominantly favored Japanese stations. It seems other PNW TP DXers also noted similar conditions. >>> Yes, here at this mediocre location the Japanese big guns were booming, but I had almost none of the second tier Asians that you tracked down. 603-HLSA and 738-BEL2 were moderately strong, but the propagation reaper made everything bail by 1400. Your ocean coast TP-DXing results are the best that I've ever seen with a 5" FSL. Keep up the great work!
