It looked like a relaxing session, at first, but more there than met the ear...there was still those Chinese pips, and more, perhaps much more. 576 was not 2RN by any stretch of the imagination. Take a listen here:

Some sort of sports broadcast, with pounding of drums? It was music across the hour of course, but then, wishful thinking points out that Myanmar's time zone is offset by half an hour. Nothing heard on my half hours plus and minus, and possible parallels on 594, 711 and 729 were checked over the hour without payback.
Interestingly, Myanama Radio does have a web site, with archives, though can't tell when those archives were recorded. Anyone have a contact for QSLs, hi?
Now, onto more normal things:
pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly):
558 HLQH woman talking, pip, ballad //603 1400UT
567 JOIK pop vocal 1350UT
594 JOAK men and women in Japanese; party atmosphere 1351UT
603 HLSA woman talking, pip, ballad //558 1400UT
747 JOIB English lessons 1348UT
774 JOUB English lessons 1345UT
972 HLCA two men in Korean 1354UT
Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise):
621 Heilongjiang RGD Xinwen Guangbo pop ballad 1350UT, and into another with no announcements. Two sets of Chinese pips (and NHK style one too) on the hour. A doorbell sound at 1401UT was also heard on 900kHz for a parallel,
828 JOBB English lessons 1347UT
873 JOGB English lessons 1346UT
963 CRI pop vocal 1348UT; heard intro music to chimes and fanfare just before hour at lower strength.
1017 CRI man in Korean 1405UT, //5965
1566 HLAZ man in Chinese 1352UT
not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker:
576 unID, described in the header. SE Asian? language by man, faded in 1353UT, and held on to after the hour, but no ID....dream on...
585 JOPG man talking //594 1412UT
819 N. Korea with operatic chorus 1407UT, better on north Flag, //2850
891 JOHK man talking //594 1403UT
945 CNR1 vocals //981 1408UT
954 JOKR man in Japanese 1411UT
981 CNR1 vocals //945 1408UT
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)
540 Chinese pips and NHK pips together 1400UT, sounded like Beijing time check. Lots of CNR1 on this channel
594 pop vocal far under JOAK across 1400UT, no break, and no, not //576 no matter how hard I wish.
612 4QR fanfare at 1400UT, just after NHK pips; a mess
639 JOIP woman talking //594 1347UT
657 orchestral music, likely N. Korea 1346UT
702 NHK2 man talking //693 1410UT; someone else with music...
711 man talking, perhaps Korean? 1405UT
729 JOCK briefly the 730 splat subsided, for man talking //594 1359UT
738 Taiwan Fisheries man talking //1143 at 1402UT
846 NHK1 partying //594 1351UT
900 Heilongjiang RGD Xinwen Guangbo Chinese pips on the hour. A doorbell sound at 1401UT was also heard parallel to 621. Not to much bother from the ESPN pair
918 man talking Chinese intonation 1352 UT
1143 Taiwan Fisheries man talking //738 at 1402UT
1206 man and woman talking, Korean intonantion? Briefly, 1351UT
Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter)
648 675 801hum 837 855 864 909 1053 1098 1134 1179 1242 1287 1323 1422 1503 1593 seemed to be Asian;
549 1098 1629 1701 seemed to be DU
