[IRCA] TP DX in Seattle on March 14

[Bruce Portzer <bportzer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It was an odd morning.  The bottom of the band was downright horrible, 
with 693 774 and 972 struggling to produce audio.   Above 1300, it was 
rather interesting with carriers on most channels.  The NHK transmitters 
on 1386 and their best signal in quite a while.  I even had traces of 
the NHK outlets on 1467 and 1476.

GOOD
1566    HLAZ, 1406 Chinese male talk

FAIR
1386    NHK2, time pips 1400, then English lesson, almost "good" at 
times but somewhat erratic signal
1422    JORF, Japanese man & woman 1353, erratic signal was quite good 
for very brief peaks
1503    JOUK, deep voiced Japanese male 1405

POOR
693    JOAB faint talk 1353
774    JOUB, faint talk 1402
972    HLCA, Korean talk in bad splatter 1333
1242    JOLF, mellow song 1404, Japanese talk 1407
1314    male talk 1407, too weak to determine the language
1467    NHK2, pips 1400, then English lesson //1386 quite poor in 
domestic splat
1476   weak tone marking ToH 1400, matching the timing and pitch heard 
on 1386, so presumably part of NHK pips
1602   weak tone at toh 1400, probably from NHK time pips
