season: We started the New Year with a DXpedition to French Creek which was our second outing of the DX season. It was cold but fortunately dry in January. Kris Field and Bob Montgomery were comfortably listening to the bands inside the warm cabin I unloaded my gear, set-up my antenna and joined them. Shortly thereafter John Figliozzi and Ed Mauger arrived. Finally, Rich Cuff arrived - a day tripper for this outing. This was the first time in many moons we had six for a DXpedition. Africa, Pacific and Asian reception was good for the most part. Latin America was very quick reflecting the low A Index values. While Papua New Guinea and Indonesia were heard, most of the Indian regional outlets were quiet this time around which was a major disappointment. Highlights included Radio Oromiya on 6030 kHz at armchair level, Candela FM on 6105 kHz, Solomon Islands with BBC World Service program on 5020 kHz with splatter from Rebelde, several different Thailand logs plus finding a suitable home for a cute little stray black and white cat that was left in the park by its former sub-human owner. 3250 HONDURAS Radio Luz y Vida, *1132-1144 Jan 11, caught man announcer with opening announcements in Spanish with long sign on routine featuring several IDs.
