[IRCA] TP 16 Feb Victoria version

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

Sunrise DX was pretty awful this morning; it was a shock to see how 
well Richard Allen had done in comparison.   However, when I listened 
to the files from the same time that he listened, conditions were 
much better, including a tentative Chinese station.    Things fell 
apart between 1400-1430UT.   One bright side was that domestic 
splatter seemed quite suppressed also.


pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, 
at least briefly):


774 JOUB interlude music, then Chinese lessons 1329-30UT
1566 HLAZ man in Japanese, interlude music, then more talk 1330UT




Reasonable audio  at  times during the period (much of it 
understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise):

594 JOAK kombonwa and NHK mentions 1300UT, no pips
747 JOIB English lessons 1257UT
972 HLCA man in Korean, woman agreeeing 1319UT





not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or 
noise could be understood by a native speaker:

1287 JOHR woman in Japanese 1345UT, briefly at this level




Burbles in the splatter and noise (if lucky, language might be 
guessed at by cadence of talk, or parallel established by changes in 
talk or music)

567 JOIK man talking Japanese inflection 1350UT, seemed // to a weaker 594
612 4QR man on phone to man in studio 1443UT, weaker yet by 1447UT, 
but //702 at that time
702 2BL pop vocal //612 1447UT
738 woman mumbling in a DU English sort of way 1449UT, not //702; 2NR?
873 JOGB man and woman talking after pips //774, intro music to Korean lessons
981 man talking Chinese inflection? 1307UT
1116 man talking, DU English inflection, 4BC?


Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or 
ravaged by splatter)

1134 1593 seemed to be Asian;    756 846  882 909 1098 likely DU



best wishes,

Nick
