Re: [IRCA] Scary Halloween TP Propagation

2013-10-31 Thread d1028gary

Hello All,


Thanks to Nick and Walt for their dreadful reports.

It was hardly a thriller here this morning, as only a few ghostly Asians 
managed to rise from the dead around 1440. 1575-VOA was the best of a 
frightfully weak group, with both male and female Asiatic language voices 
managing a few ghostly gasps through the oppressive noise at 1438. 594-JOAK 
made an attempt to join the living at 1442, but still sounded half dead at 
1443. Finally 972-HLCA produced a screaming heterodyne at 1445, only to fall 
back into the grave without any hope of life. The vast majority of the Asians 
stayed in a comatose state, apparently scared off by the frightfully bad 
propagation. Even 738-Tahiti (normally attracted by morbid conditions) had the 
good sense to stay in its grave, although it did manage a ghostly heterodyne 
around 1405. Pretty frightful conditions overall.


73 and Happy Halloween,

So far, I'm joining the chorus.   I'll poke through the recordings 
tonight after the neighborhood goblins have gone to bed, to see if 
there is anything special on a 20 second fade up (have already 
snagged JOIK-567), because that's all there is likely to be.

Sure agree with Richard and Gary.  Although, a modest presence from 972 and
774 at least.  Hints of audio from 1116.  A bummer for sure!  73,  Walt
