[HCDX] DU DX LOG



Greetings everyone;

Another good DU morning with many 5 KWers heard. I started hearing them
by 
0630 UTC Nov 3rd, and they were pretty much in all night until sunrise
this morning. I "cat napped" off and on to see if cx were going to get
really wild, but they didn't. Not a bad morning, but no new ones logged.
In the beginning from the period by about 0700-0800 UTC I was getting
some high band New Zealanders that were strong. Later I lost them like
1593 & 1386.

1179     NEW ZEALAND? presume the source of the drum music at 0830 11/3,
but too much terrible KLOK-1170-San Jose CA splatter, once again. I can
phase it out, but there goes the 1179 signal too. This has been a real
toughie to log. Ruai Mai in NZ runs 1 KW and it heard often, but the
Cumbia mx really splatters a lot from KLOK. (PM-OR)

Wales at 1303 11/3 (PM-OR)
1386     NEW ZEALAND, Auckland 1XOR Radio Tarana, presume the source of
the Ethnic type music and female ancr. I was amazed they came so strong
for a while, at 0715 11/3, holding its own in the 6 khz filter between
1380-1390. Unneeded, but I have not heard this for sometime. Later on it
was only a het. (PM-OR)

with unid Asian lang 0716 11/3, came up the same time 1386 did, but not
as good. Woman ancr in Unid lang, some mx in the 1590-1600 splatter
briefly. (PM-OR)
