[IRCA] TP 11 May Victoria version

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

Mostly Asia today, and pretty good for nearly the middle of May


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

1566 HLAZ man in Chinese 1203UT, briefly at this level.   Note that 
this isn't the Japanese pattern that points to us (unless they hit 
the wrong switch in the control room).   In fact, the broadcast did 
show a boost at 1230UT, but only from non-existent to weak; local 
sunrise is 1237UT here


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

828 JOBB man in Japanese 1140UT //747
1323 CRI woman and man in Russian, leading into a Chinese flavored 
violin solo, 1145UT





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


747 JOIB man in Japanese 1139UT //828
774 JOUB man in Japanese, woman mentioning NHK 1058UT
972 HLCA man in Korean 1151-2UT
1287 JOHR man in Japanese 1125UT


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)

702 man and woman talking DU English inflection 1211UT
1017 acoustic guitar music, island vocals 1138UT; Tonga on late?
1089 NHK2 penny whistle solo punched through the splash //774 at 1125UT
1116 woman talking, DU English inflection
1206 woman talking, Korean inflection, likely Yanbian 1141UT, also 1152-3UT
1314 woman singing oriental flavor, 1135UT
1386 NHK2 man talking //774 1130-1UT, fading up nearly simultaneously


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

945 963 1008 1053  1107 1197SAH 1242  1269 1503 seemed to be Asian;
567 603 612 882 891 909 1098 1116 seemed DU


best wishes,

Nick
