Nice report Guy,
Thanks and I'll give it a try. I am going to be spending a lot of time
in the Philippines starting in April so I should be able to do some good MW
DXing.

Thanks again,

Burr

MW DXers on the USA West Coast and mountain states should keep an ear on
the 9-kHz split frequences the rest of this week, before the sun's
activity spikes again. Each day this week has brought better TP MW
reception. This morning's signal levels on 594 (JOAK, Tokyo), 1134 (JOQR
Tokyo), 1566 (FEBC, Cheju, S. Korea) and 1575 (VOA, Attuthaya, Thailand)
were the best since last fall's excellent string of openings. VOA 1575 was
particularly good, with ID and news at 1530 UTC.

I'm heading to Ocean City State Park, WA this Sunday for a two-night
DXpedition. I hope the conditions hold out, although the chance of a
geostorm increases after the 5th... a large sunspot region is due to swing
back into view.
