Believe it or not there were TA carriers this evening in Victoria, at
2330UT, about 50 minutes before local sunset. And, by the time
sunset arrived, they were gone, and have remained gone ever since.
However, did verify that last night's reception on 999 was COPE

Definitely poorer reception of TPs in Victoria this morning
pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least
briefly):

Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a

Hi Guys:
Here is this weeks AM BCB DX Report. Not much to report as conditions have
settled down somewhat and I had little time to DX and review recordings!
However, I did manage to hear a couple New Stations - Both 1 kW’ers.
We’ll see what next week brings……….
AM BCB TOTALS are now.
This list doesn't support attachments, Paul. I wasn't listening so can't
offer any feedback other than to note that nothing major has occurred on a
global basis in terms of geomagnetic activity.

Craig, Nick and Bill,
Thank you all very much for your generous comments on the Kauai DXing posts.
And no, Nick, Costco is not giving me any finder's fee for travel referrals :-)
But I wouldn't turn down a discount on the next Kauai trip!
Bill, I was actually also thinking of you in Lubec
Same thing was seen here Paul. Don't have the evidence you do, but things
were quite lively until I had to go out at 0330. When I got back about
0515 only a couple of feeble TA carriers remained. In fact I recall
checking to see if I'd inadvertently flipped an antenna switch!

Thanks Chuck. WRTH says that they don't start breaking out until
0555UT daily, so figured that at 0200UT COPE would be doing network
programming. Unfortunately, I didn't have the luxury on my own
recording of finding a parallel; it was surprising enough hearing
anything on 999!
I'll go
Hi
This is an observation on overnight TA conditions from across the pond.
There appeared to be a wipe out of TA signals around 0500 utc. I do a
plot of carriers on each frequency and nearly every frequency shows
audio disappearing at around that time ... almost as if a plug has been
pulled.
Nick -
COPE outlets are always parallel except for a handful of local breaks each day.
I have aschedule for the local breaks if needed.

I’d like to 2nd Nick’s comments Gary. There were a few times I thought of you
there in Hawaii with a souped up portable radio and modest sized FSL and
compared it to freezing my butt off in Maine trying to keep up two huge DKAZ
antennas in a very unfriendly environment. Then I got under the
It's certainly sounds the same Walt, with the addition that the talk
sounds Spanish. My recording was far too rugged to determine that.
Was it parallel with other COPE channels at the time? That would be
a firm ID for me, and a major catch on a not particularly exciting evening.

Heh, I hope that Costco is giving you a good finders' fee for that
write up Gary (hi). It certainly sounds like quite the deal all right.
Seriously, thanks for an excellent write up on how to approach a new
and exotic DX location, and how to take full advantage of it.
best wishes,
Nick

The Japanese big guns were stronger accompanied by what I consider a
second-tier JJ station here on 873 was marginally present. Propagation declined
significantly at LSR. I listened from 1309 to 1358. LSR at 1350.
594 JOAK faint to weak w/female and male in JJ
693 JOAB weak
Finally, In consideration of the exceptional value of the Costco travel
package and the superb transoceanic DX propagation prevalent on the Kauai
beach, this 6 day Hawaii vacation proved to be as much of a lifetime hobby
thrill as visiting the exotic Cook islands in April-- at less than
