Thanks for the DU-DXing report from your shower room, Colin. I'm happy that the 
modified E100 tracked down 612-Brisbane for you. 

Unfortunately propagation here in Puyallup was down the drain. A ghostly signal 
from 738-Tahiti around 1325 was all that showed up. With the vicarious DU-DX 
tracked down by you and Richard this morning, though, it wasn't a total 
washout.

Alas, peak listening is now happening when I am showering and shaving for 
another work day Monday - to Friday.

   The low band sure opened up after 1400UT or so.   Before, I 
couldn't say, ahem, this was the morning to both foul up the 
recording and sleep in.


ABC teletalk on quite a few channels and the Maori stations on 765 
and 603 as well.  Report later.


best wishes,

Nick
