As Nick has reported the Asian conditions this morning were a shadow of yesterday's, but with S7 electrical noise continuing from the neighbor's property a single 15" FSL was taken to a local park 5 blocks away, and some Asian test recordings were made with a CC Skywave Ultralight during sunrise enhancement. The experiment was a complete success, with strong, noise-free recordings made of both 603-HLSA and 657-Pyongyang BS just prior to 1400 (with China weakly showing up on both frequencies).
603 HLSA Namyang, S. Korea Korean pop music and female speech very good at 1352; trace of China underneath https://dreamcrafts.box.com/s/vb7r21kzav16jfgc2x4z51nc0i29pnco 603 China Mixing up with HLSA's music at 1358; this signal would have been lost in the neighbor's noise at home https://dreamcrafts.box.com/s/8ivtfj2r3hrd90lef6f1nq1mzbh8c72p 657 Pyongyang BS Pyongyang, N. Korea Yikes! S9+ female choral music at 1347-- probably its strongest signal of the season here https://dreamcrafts.box.com/s/ackr115wt4joeslbjae9i3mjs8m3untv Martial music at S9 level at 1356 https://dreamcrafts.box.com/s/bzzw1fdal5qeiv5tg33tebu2r0dy654o 73 and Good DX, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA, USA) 7.5" loopstick CC Skywave SSB Ultralight + 15" FSL antenna at Sam Peach Park (Puyallup Valley) _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com 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: irca@hard-core-dx.com
