TDXC Journal "PROPAGATION" Vol.6

   I had been very busy with my work and I didn't update my blog for about one year!!  I am a member of TDXC (Totsuka DXers Circle) and I had been concentrating on some articles for TDXC annual journal "Propagation" Vol.6 since this May.
  I posted 3 articles. The first one is Interview with a Canadian DXer Mr. Nick Hall-Patch who visited Japan and joined our MW DX expeditions in Nigata and Kiritappu in Hokkaido. The second one is A prediction method of electric field strength and reception CN ratio for TP-DXing on MW band by ITU-R P.1147-4 and P.372-13.  The third one is a report of a radio wave school for high school students in which I taught them some attractions of radio waves.
 This edition is written in Japanese for most of the parts but some articles are written in English including the index. So I hope you can imagine what is wrote about in this journal.  We are the same enthusiasts of SWL and MW DXing so I believe you can easily understand our journal ;-) .

You can download this journal here. (Please click "here". ) Since this morning, Because of too many accesses to the server, you might not be able to download the journal for a while. In that case, please try to download it a little later.
