[IRCA] TP DX for Saturday Oct 5

[Bruce Portzer <bportzer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

My morning was a bit different from Gary's, with almost nothing at the 
low end of the dial, but some interesting stuff at the upper end.  The 
whole band seemed quite dead until about 1345.   After that there were 
carriers on about 70% of the 9 kHZ channels above 1000, although most of 
them were quite weak.

VOA 1575 was impressive today with listenable audio for about half an 
hour.  There were also a few "near audio" carriers on 1116 1377 1386 
1449 and 1494.

Good - most of it could have been understood by a native speaker
1575    VOA, woman in SEA language 1352, man w/VOA ment 1356 then 
indigenous song, more talk, another VOA ment 1359, more talk by various 
people.  Still producing audio 1419.

Fair - some of it could have been understood by a native speaker
1422    JORF, JJ man & woman 1359-1403.  Possibly a chime at ToH, or 
maybe it was just domestic splash.
1566    HLAZ, hymn 1340, usual woman with end of JJ pgm 1344

Poor - recognizable program content
594    JOAK time pips and a few syllables of talk 1400
1503    JOUK time pips & weak JJ talk 1400-1402
1593    CNR (presumed), 1350-1403 a few syllables here and there during 
pauses in the KLFE splatter
1602    faint talk 1358, jj-like inflections, no pips heard 1400
