Hi Dennis, Thanks for your report this morning. A little earlier than you were listening (around 1450-1510) both the low and high band had some good signals here, with 603-China mixing with HLSA at a decent level before the 1500 TOH, and 1593-CNR1 fairly strong (in splatter) around 1455.

Hello All, Asian signals rebounded quite well here from yesterday's dreary session, with several low and high band TP's showing some energy from 1430-1510. My session started off at 1430 in the frozen back yard, with 1566-HLAZ the strongest of the Asians (very good) along with 1575-VOA

Hi All: I never heard WJDI, but I wonder if anyone recalls a pirate run by my HS speech teacher, Bob Trapp, in Grand Rapids, MI, in the late 50s. I think he used the calls WMAX, later used by other GR stations. Claimed he was running 100 watts on 1060 was the only GR station playing rr at the

A very Chinese morning with enhancement on the top of the band earlier and the bottom of the band a little later. Most things peaked by 1520UT, but 639 was a powerful straggler on the half hour. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): 639

It never fails. Whenever I compare my TP DX with Dennis and Gary's reports, it's like we're talking about different days. Today was really interesting in several ways. The upper and lower halves of the band behaved completely differently. Signals below about 1100 peaked early, at about

It wasn't a matter of missing the later low band peak - I checked the SDR files and there was nothing on the lower part of the dial after about 1400, let alone at 1500 or 1530. Bruce On 2/4/2014 22:02, Nick Hall-Patch wrote: And, different again up here Bruce. One similarity is that the
