[IRCA] TP 17 Feb Victoria version.

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

While I was crossing borders (the quality of migrants is obviously dropping isn't it?), the faithful SDR was DXing for me.   An interesting lift at the top of band as sunrise approached this morning, not strong, but varied.  Many of the carriers listed had "nearly there" audio at various times.



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

not quite




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


594 JOAK 1448UT

774 JOUB 1444UT 

828 JOBB 1447UT

972 HLCA 1448UT




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

747 JOIB 1448UT  (all of these had faded by the time the upper band lift arrived)

1287 JOHR man and woman in Japanese 1524UT

1594 CNR1 man in Chinese 1511UT, erratic fading, earlier paralleled with 1377


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) 

1377 CNR1 1506UT //1593 music and man talking

1557 woman talking, Chinese intonation.  Very rough carrier, wonder if there's an awkward mainland Chinese on the channel, as seems unlikely Taiwan would stand for that sort of nonsense.

1566 man in apparent Chinese 1511UT, but  also someone else with pop music, on north Flag, so possibly China?



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

 693 864 945 1206 1242 1269 1278 1305 1314 1332 1386 1422  1458  1503 seemed to be Asian; 
 nothing much seemed to be DU  


best wishes,

Nick
