Overview by Time -- I MiniDISCed all of this with some good audio - will
sort it out in a few days.

1020UTC 738Khz FF Woman and Man w/ pop music Tahiti w/ excellent levels
1025UTC 729Khz big carrier hammering activity on 730khz -- assume New Caledonia

1035UTC 891khz EE talk at good levels

1045UTC 792khz EE talk and sports - one of the biggest signals on the dial

1125UTC 531khz several stations duking it out here - both in English!
1128UTC 639khz big signal each time I passed by - assume Fiji
1135UTC 1098khz noted good signal here later on in the listening session -- recorded
1145UTC 567khz assume NZ - need to listen to MD -- good levels with EE chatter
1208UTC 1008khz more of the same here w/ EE stuff or sports (must review MD)
Went back to bed at 1210UTC while things were in full swing - my bad.
APRIL 16 2006 AM UTC -- 12:00 ---> 12:30UTC complete washout - NO audio on any splits!
APRIL 17 2006 AM UTC -- 12:34 ---> 12:43UTC audio in 702, 774 and 657, a semi-washout.
Was staying at the Pacific Sands Resort in beautiful Tofino B.C. -
a moderately noisy location - with the ALA100 and Loop this
MiniDXped would have been a complete write-off.
