Hello All,
Asian propagation seemed slightly down this morning compared to
yesterday, although the TP "big guns" from Japan, Korea, China and Russia had no
problem showing up with decent audio. The weaker Chinese stations were in
and out of the noise, while the 639 and 756 CNR1 stations had no weak
co-channels like yesterday. 936 kHz continued its October "big gun" performance,
and the Korean Jammer was near full strength.
Thanks to Bruce's information on 936-Anhui's English programming, I
was able to investigate the station's format a little more this morning.
During the 1400-1415 time period (late Thursday night in China) the station
apparently has a Chinese version of NHK2's Radio English Conversation
program, in which a female Chinese speaker gives commentary on an English speech.
This morning's lesson (during fair to good 936-Anhui signals) was on the
English speech delivered yesterday morning around this same time. During this
month of October, 936-Anhui would be a good bet for those DXers needing
their first China reception, along with 639-CNR1, 756-CNR1, 981-CNR1,
1044-CRI (in Japanese from 1330-1430) and 1377-CNR1.
The following were heard on a C.Crane SWP Slider model (7.5"
loopstick) inductively coupled to a 9' sided PVC tuned passive loop (in the back
yard). A modified ICF-2010 (30" loopstick) was used as an SSB spotting
receiver:
