Gary,

Thanks for the great recordings! I can't wait to see what offerings (I hope) can be had from Down Under and elsewhere. You really know how to get a guy's anticipation level ramped way up! What great DX! In 9 days, Hawaii here I come!

Aloha and Enjoy!

 The Ultralights and compact FSL were set up
 for "big game" at sunrise this morning here in Kona, with a
 sunrise peak seeming to kick in around 1545. Priority
 frequencies were 531, 693 and 1566, and all three seemed to
 deliver something of interest on a 5 inch "Frequent Flyer"
 FSL right next to the salt water here in Kona. 
 
 531 had an LR network program
 apparently with the same content and announcer as 630-4QN,
 presumably from 6DL (although the two stations didn't seem
 to be exactly in parallel, maybe because of a programming
 delay due to a time zone difference). 693 had an unfamiliar
 station around 1602 after the sign off of NHK2, which didn't
 sound like English speech to me (657 was checked for NZ
 propagation, but it only delivered Pyongyang at a blistering
 level). Finally, 1566 had a mix of a Christian music station
 (apparently HLAZ) and an unknown foreign language station
 with a male-female news format at 1604. These three
 frequencies will again receive serious attention starting at
 1545 in a few hours. 
 
 531 6DL? Same apparent program and
 announcer as 630-4QN below, but didn't seem exactly parallel
