Definitely a better morning, as Bill has noted. This was one where the longer
you stuck at it, the more DX appeared, because there was a a lot of short term
fades up...so, lively, but erratic, and mostly low band. Last night around 0700
there was no sign of sunset enhancement, so this was a pleasant surprise.
Listened around 1355, 1430-1500, and a bit around 1530UT
pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least
briefly):
279 R. Rossii
567 JOIK //594 (and stronger than 594); this at 1455UT
594 JOAK
747 JOIB
774 JOUB
828 JOBB (though by 1454UT, this was getting unstable, and a man talking heard
fading up through it)
reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a
native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise):
639 CNR-1 //4460
837 CC talk by man at 1436UT
972 likely HLCA
1566 HLAZ at 1529; finally, the monster carrier delivers
not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be
understood by a native speaker
558 rap mx, more likely JOCR?
576 RR talk by woman, but something else there also, at 1358UT
666 JOBK //594 at 1459UT, but heard earlier with a big carrier, and man talking,
not //594
936 possibly Anhui
945 CNR-1 //4460 at 1451UT
1134 S. Korea //972 at 1450UT
1287 likely JOHR at 1444UT
1503 JOUK //567 at 1456UT
1575 SE Asian talk by woman, likely VoA
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) :
531 JOQG //594 at 1443UT
585 JOPG //594
621 sounded like CC talk by woman, and weak CC style pips at 1400; another
station there also?
675 likely Vietnam, 1528UT
738 unID
846 might have been a couple of stations, one seemed parallel to 594
864 unID
918 China?
981 seemed //4460 in the splash, if so, CNR-1
1035 maybe weak CC pips at 1500UT
1386 mx, didn't seem parallel to 828 or 4460
Strongish het, no audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter):
603, 657 off channel (N. Korea?)
best wishes,
Nick
