[IRCA] TP for 31 Jan from Victoria, BC

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

Slept in this morning, didn't start listening until 1525 UT, and it might have been a mistake....there was some life in the upper band, with hints also in the lower band.   Many of the high powered regulars were missing or very poor (I'm not sure when NHK2 signed off today for example; there was very little activity on 747 and 774, and none on 828, so they might have signed off at 1500UT, yet at 1600UT on 1602 I heard what sounded like NHK pips and a few bars at the anthem, but pretty far in the murk by then, and certainly the low band was gone by then) 

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

none


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

594 JOAK  
1242 JOLF likely
1422 JORF JJ talk by man
1503 JOUK //594 and usually stronger


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

603 perhaps HLSA, no // on 558
1557 mx at 1535UT, and deep voiced man in EE at 1601 UT, so Taiwan
1386 CC talk, seemed //1593 so CNR-1
1566 HLAZ, big carrer



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) :

558 occasional mx
567 JOIK //594
666 JOBK //1503
747 JOIB seemed //774, but both quite weak, and just a man talking; could be mistaken
774 JOUB?
1224 //594 w/ woman talking, so JOJK; new here
1314 seemed like JJ inflected talk, so JOUF?
1332 mx; most likely Japan 
1512 NHK2? //1602 at several points, maybe 774 also, but a man talking around the noise level isn't much to hang your hat on.
1593 possibly CNR-1?  not sure if //6125 which was much weaker than usual;  something else on 1593 also, maybe NHK2?
1602 NHK2 synchros? seemed //1512 and 774 at various times

Strongish het, no audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter):

1269, 1287




best wishes,

Nick
