Yes, the Chinese wave continues to dominate TP-DXing sessions at this
mediocre inland location, with lots of interesting signals still showing up 5
days after their breakthrough morning on October 25th.
As Nick reported 837-China (Harbin?) was one of the top performers during
sunrise enhancement, although this frequency in Hawaii was notorious for having
two Chinese stations fighting it out each evening (usually along with NHK1).
936-China (Anhui?) also managed very good audio at times, as did 603-China and
639-CNR1. The CRI stations on 963, 1017 and 1044 took a while to get untracked
but eventually showed up with S7 peaks around 1440, while 756-CNR1 and
1035-CNR1 both had good (mushy) signals at times. 603-HLSA, 864-HLKR and
972-HLCA also had several S9 peaks, although 603 was mostly dominated by China.
657-Pyongyang generally managed to hold off 657-China (Henan?) but there were
times when both stations were at equal strength. Overall the session was
another blast here, with the exceptional conditions during the past 5 days
coming at a perfect time for final FSL antenna tweaking, waterproofing and
testing prior to a Hawaii trip on Friday..After all the improvements the
tiny 5" Frequent Flyer model even managed to track down some marginal 531 kHz
audio here during the TA bonanza in Victoria last night (around 0440)-- quite a
thrill!
