Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 3-10
Walt,
Â
If signal levels were compared, I'm sure that a great day in Puyallup would be considered a mediocre day in Masset-- or maybe even in Victoria. But there was no doubt that propagation improved dramatically here this morning, in comparison to yesterday. It will be interesting to hear what the other fanatics experienced.

And yet here in Masset conditions were very mediocre nothing at all
compared to the good propagation of yesterday morning. 73 Walt
