Oddly enough, JOAB-693 was the strongest TP at the time, even though Nick and Gary didn't report it. JOAB was coming in quite well, and JOAK-594 was only slightly weaker. JOIB-747 and JOUB-774 were readable but much weaker. There were also bits of audio or hets on other freqs, including 567 621 639 738 909 972 and 981. There may have been others, but time was short.
It sounds like Gary had much better reception 2.5 hours earlier, as did Nick a 3.5 hours later.

Actually this morning wasn't bad here, though more in the sense that some big guns were flexing their audio muscles a bit for a change, but everything else still involved the erratic fade ups giving the occasional reward to the intrepid DXer rootling in the undergrowth. But this intrepid DXer didn't have much time, and only listened for a few minutes after 1500UT. (NHK-2 s/off was later than 1500 today, but don't know when exactly)
