[IRCA] 3 Nov Victoria version.



This morning seemed to be another step towards more normal November conditions.  Domestics seemed quite splashy also, and along with the DX fading quite erratically made for some difficulty here.

Items of note were hearing the Chinese pips on 1530kHz at 1500UT, though I would have missed them if Bruce hadn't mentioned them, and hearing the portentous tones of a man intoning "Voice of America" on 720 at the same time.   Fortunately, before getting too excited, I checked the hour before .... "Voice of America  KFIR" ...  Excitement over.

I enjoyed Colin's report, but for the most part, didn't enjoy hearing most of what he reported.   That's definitely a better listening location up there.


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


594 JOAK 1429UT

657 N. Korea presumed with female chorus briefly peaking 1433UT.  This can fade up pretty quickly (and down)

747 JOIB 1429UT

774 JOUB 1433UT

945 CNR1 short peak 1423UT //639

972 HLCA 1434UT, with someone underneath; still readable at peaks, 1630UT







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


558 HLQH, //HLSA 1435UT; Japanese underneath

567 JOIK //594 1428UT

603 HLSA //HLQH 1439UT

612 4QR assumed man and woman in DU English 1436UT

639 CNR1 1432UT //945

828 JOBB 1433UT man in Portuguese

828 JOBB 1424UT //774

837 1435UT, woman in Chinese after pop music; not //5925 or the CNR5 webstream

1017 Tonga assumed with island choral music 1434UT

1566 not sure; woman and man in Chinese 1500UT, but no mentions of FEBC; no possible // on 1053




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

702 man in Chinese followed by male vocal  1358UT, not //639, as female vocalist there, 

738 Chinese man talking 1427UT; no 1143 today

873 JOGB //774 1450UT




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) 

621 woman talking, Chinese intonation 

711 HLKA man //864 1445UT

756 CNR1 echoey //945 1448UT

819 N. Korea woman talking  //2850 1450UT

864 HLKR, as 711

1323 man talking, Russian intonation 1430UT

1458 brief fade up 1451UT, man talking, couldn't really guess; Tagalog?

1530 CNR pips 1500UT under KFBK

1575  woman talking, possibly SE Asian languag 1424UT

1593 CNR1 pips and distinctive sounds of time check and into the news 1500UT


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

549 576 585 675  729 783 846 855  918 927 936 963 1008  1035  1053 1134 1143 1206  1215 1251  1305  1341 1377   1503   seemed to be Asian; 
576 585  seemed  to be DU  


best wishes,

Nick
