Gabriola is usually quite poor for Down Under reception, but this morning low band DU's dominated the usual big gun low band Japanese, which recovered briefly around local sunrise. Odd in that last night, there were signs of TAs, including a bit of weak audio on 1215, but there was not the u

By coincidence I was testing out a brand new TSA-friendly 89mm (3.5 inch) FSL antenna at 1220 in the predawn darkness, and had various S9 peaks from 972-HLCA on the tiny antenna, as well as S7 peaks from 594-JOAK and some weak audio from 657-Pyongyang. By 1400 all of these had fizzled out, thoug

Conditions today were, in many respects, much like the past few days. Unlike some recent days, there was a very pronounced sunrise enhancement that lasted from about 1435 to 1450. HLAZ-1566 was the big standout today, with a nice signal for several minutes. Otherwise, there were lots of carr
