Hi Nigel,
Wow, it was the exact opposite during this last morning here at Rockwork 4.
By far the best morning for Australia the whole week, with 576, 774 and 792 pegging the PL-380 S/N readout. The Kiwis were enhanced too, though, leading to snarling fights on many frequencies. The only thing that seemed dead here was the X-band :-)

This morning looked like a dud when I first tuned in at 1100, with even
Tahiti's carrier very weak. Indeed, Tahiti never did reach audio today,
and most of the other carriers were weaker than the past while. Was
pleasantly surprised when I reached the X-band though, to find weak
audio on both 1629 and 1701. Multiple carriers at varying offsets noted
on 1629. 1701 had two distinct ones, of similar strength. Brisvaani
has been heard here numerous times (though never in July), and the music
I heard could certainly have been them, but with a weak signal (and IBOC
noise from 1690) it was hard to be certain. The two strongest
non-Xband carriers were on 1566 and 1575, both very near to audio, so
evidently the higher frequencies were strongly favoured today.
