[IRCA] TP fro 28Sep09 from Victoria: Poor!
John Bryant has all the luck travelling on such a lackluster day! I listened between 13:36 (slept in a bit) and 14:13 and was underwhelmed with what I heard. Only the 1st tier JJ stations seemed to make it through. Highlight, though, was hearing English from North Korea at 14:04 // 3250. Never heard that before and worth checking previous SDR files. I tuned today from 936 up, then 936 down (936 being the center frequency of my SDR recordings). It's a good bellweather station, since when conditions are good, it can be pretty strong, and when not, there's not much there (as there was today). By the way, I revamped my W wire by raising it about 20' to the top of our large fir trees in the back yard, so expecting a big improvement in gain from an already hot antenna (this is a Conti corner fed broadband loop). SF 72, A8, K2. As always "6" unless otherwise noted:
531, 567, 576
585: JOPG at 7
594: JOAK at 9
603: 7 level oriental at 14:08
612: 8.5 level Brisbane at 14:11 (very little else from DU today).
657: English news at 14:04 //3250. This is obviously North Korea. Never heard English there before! 7 to 8 level.
666: JOBK at 8 at 14:03
738: 2 cochannel CC talk and music at 7 level.
747: JOIB at 7 only
774: JOUB at 9 at 14:00
801: 6 only. Wobbly carrier on high side today
828: JOBB at 9
846
873: JOGB at 7
918: Strong oriental music at 9 level at 13:57
963: CRI RR at 13:37 at 9 level
972: KK at 9 level
981: CNR1 at 8
1017: CRI KK at 8
1053, 1098, 1116
1134: ?KBS at 8. Lot's of splatter but otherwise strong at 13:43
1143: 8 level ?Taiwan Fisheries
1242: JOLF at 8 at 13:48
1251
1287: JOHR at 9

1503: 6.5 with weak talk. Asian at 13:53
1512
1566: HLAZ barely a 7
1575: VOA a bit stronger at 8.
There you have it.
