This morning definitely showed more action. Even though Bill Whitacre's reception of HLCA-972 on the east coast was so good, it was actually received even better on the west coast today. And, about time too. Plus, some Chinese stations appeared again. On top of that, three stations hung in

Quite a selection of weak carriers starting at local sunset, and then fading away within a hour or two. A return of a few of them occurred after 0630UT, with audio traces on 1089 (with phasing down of 1090), and on 1215kHzbut nothing to get excited about at all. best wishes, Nick

Has to be V7AB with that mx. Lubec SR was just about 1128 today. Marshalls s/off is about 1130. Hope you had the anthem then or something across the 1100 hour. 73 KAZ On Sat, Nov 17, 2018 at 10:53 AM Nick Hall-Patch wrote: > Are you sure you don't want to stay a few more days Bill? > >

HLAZ 1566 managed to stumble through to 1700UT, when a fairly readable "welcome to the Voice of America" appeared. Local sunrise was 1523UT Nick The best I can come up in Victoria with is that HLAZ is still delivering at 1642UT, not loud, but recognizably Russian talk. Nick Nick

Bearing is about 300 deg from Lubec to Marshalls. Surprising to have that signal level on a DKAZ aimed 35 deg, but clobbering WTAM 1100 is also important. Is V7AB using their full 25 kW now? Earlier this month when cx were great and I wasn't sick so was up to DX, I had their all night OC peaking

Interesting you mentioned 1566, as here in Alberta this morning HLAZ was at least audible, but it was battling with another station on the frequency, about equal in strength much of the time. 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, AB Canada On 11/17/2018 10:44 AM, Nick Hall-Patch wrote: HLAZ 1566

It all depends on the path, the time and where the auroral zone is. On a path from ECNA to China/NK during low A and K periods the path probably skips over the zone and has its bounce point somewhere within the zone. There's also the potential for Greyline enhancement. If the path drops far
