[IRCA] TPs July 20 from Orcas Island: Average to Good

["John H. Bryant" <bjohnorcas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I only got the prime twenty minutes before dawn, but it was pretty 
good. Mostly, the usual suspects, tho'.

6s at peaks unless otherwise noted:

567
585
612
675 // 567 // 756
702
738 big carrier, small audio late
756
774
783
819 N Radio Tauranga? T briefly
855 Pialba in QLD or R Rhema... sounded Rhema
891
963
1116
1386 T

675 was the star of the morning... in at 6 throughout and hit 7s at times.

HAS ANYONE ELSE NOTED THAT THIS SEEMS A "NEW ZEALAND YEAR?"  Ever 
since the summer season really got started, Kiwis have just seemed 
more prominent than usual... not stronger than usual (except for 675 
and 963) but just more of them, more often, relative to the Aussies. 
Certainly at Grayland this last time, the Kiwi stations dominated. 
I'm writing 5 reception reports and 4 are to Kiwis. I've many more 
unverified east coast Aussies than I do Kiwis.... Maybe too small a 
sample to say for sure, but the New Zealand stations sure seem more 
prominent to me.  Comments???
