I just finished monitoring 11650 from 2100-2200, with
a fine S7 signal, yet no mention of the Far North
Service or even anything cyclone-related.  Radio
Australia IDs, closing announcements and "Waltzing
Matilda" at 2200 s/off, yet sked above indicates it
should be on for 8 more hours on this frequency.

This is the 2nd time today I have monitored one of
these frequencies (I listened to 6020 from 12-13 UTC),
and heard nothing but the usual Radio Australia/ABC
fare.  Am I missing something here?  Did these relays
end almost as quickly as they appeared?
