Re: [IRCA] (ho hum) TA's
You northerners are grabbing all the DX hi. Nick, you sure you're not getting me mixed up with Walt? His receptions are way above mine. Tho conditions up here can be very good, the past few winters have been nothing like they were 5 or 6 years ago. Still, better than nothing, and so far this winter, better than the past 2 have been.

Re: [IRCA] (ho hum) TA's
Another evening of TA evidence in western Canada. Some audio on Farda-1575, though not very good level. Occasional weak talk on 1539, and a fair carrier on 1503 are rounding things out at the moment. Not much yet in the lower band. Perhaps you should have checked earlier Nick. Up here there were many TAs in as early as 13:30MST. Some with pretty fair signals. 1053 1215-UK were both very good, as were 1134-Croatia and 855-Spain. Unusually 1575-Farda was very poor, tho audible. Unfortunately the whole band was very noisy, probably because of the very thick hoar frost which currently covers everything including all my antennas and the trees they are attached to. Of course all the BOGs are buried under the snow. Many other TAs had audio, tho too poor to ID. The waterfall on the Perseus showed even more weak signals without audio. As local sunset approached they all faded under the signals from down south, tho the carriers still show on the Perseus.

Re: [IRCA] (ho hum) TA's
I think you're right about those northerners Nick!Ho-hum pretty well summed up the TA action (or maybe inaction) here today (and this mornings TPs were even worse, virtually non-existant). Had Croatia in fairly early today, and a few others with feeble audio, but nothing really developed. 73, Nigel Niick Hall-Patch wrote: At 03:42 1/3/2010, you wrote: Another evening of TA evidence in western Canada.
