[HCDX] Audio Clips from Exc. Asian MW TP Reception on Oct. 9



I live approx. 120 miles away from the Pacific Ocean (and across a mountain
range) on the 302 degree bearing to Japan from my home southeast of Seattle.
Trans-Pacific MW stations don't often make it this far inland and/or stand
out from the local MW "blowtorches". This week, however, has been an
excellent one for TP reception in the Pacific NW.

The morning of October 9, though, was especially good. Take a listen to the
DX clips below, heard in Puyallup on a 35 ft. wide X 40 ft. high "Conti"
terminated loop antenna and Perseus SDR:

JOIB Sapporo is on 747, which was barrelling into Puyallup at 1400 UTC:

Also over the 1400 UTC top-of-the-hour was 963 China Radio International in
Russian:

and at the same 1400 UTC time here is 972 HLCA:

All three are easy catches from the Grayland DXpedition site and other
coastal locations in the Pacific Northwest. To hear them this well in the RF
Jungle of greater Seattle over a hundred miles from the coast was a treat!
