[IRCA] TP for 21 Mar from Victoria, BC

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

Still spotty conditions, but because I listened pretty continually from 1335UT to 1415UT (when things were noticeably fading), I actually heard quite a lot.    A couple of DU appearances this morning, on 612 and 639, as well as the Marshalls carrier on 1098.


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

666 JOBK (!) at 1408UT, //594 and stronger
774 JOUB
828 JOBB 
1566 HLAZ until 1345 pattern change; slightly weaker, but still pretty fair, afterwards



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

567 JOIK, a late bloomer today, not at this strength until 1358UT
594 JOAK
747 JOIB
972 HLCA likely, at 1350UT
1287 likely JOHR at 1349.


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

279 R. Rossii
603 later on, maybe HLSA, as had seemed //558 a little earlier when weaker
612 4QR per direction at 1356UT, but by 1406, JOLK was stronger //594, then by 1413, 4QR was dominant again, and at its strongest level, one up from this one.
873 JOGB //774 later on
1134 not //972 earlier, then it was // briefly at 1347UT: so, mix of JOQR and S. Korea
1242 likely JOLF, later on
1575 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) :

558 maybe //603, so HLQH?
639 choral singing in DU direction; Fiji?
675 might have been two stations at 1400UT, one of which sounded like NHK pips.
693 unusual visitor, JOAB //774 briefly in CBU splat
936 at 1351UT; Anhui?
963 good carrier, RR inflection to female talk; CRI?
1053 very good carrier, woman talking faintly earlier on, but mostly just carrier
1143 maybe CC talk by woman at 1412UT, Taiwan?
1269  maybe, just maybe //1287 w/male talk, but not sure;  JOFM/JOSW if so





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

891,  1098  DU, 1251



best wishes,

Nick
