Hi Bruce,

<<<   I haven't seen any reports from Dennis or Gary yet today.  If you guys 
actually tried listening for TPs this morning, you have my condolences.  
If you didn't, then you probably didn't miss much (even though a lousy 
morning here isn't necessarily the same for others).   >>>

Can't speak for Dennis, but I was checking the band this morning-- and ended up with practically nothing (like you). Hoping for a repeat of yesterday's potent sunrise enhancement boost, I checked the comatose band at 1350, 1430, 1500 and 1530 UTC, and came away with nothing more than a very anemic 972-HLCA and 1566-HLAZ around 1500. Thanks for your report, Bruce-- misery does enjoy company.

73, Gary

I went through the SDR files and managed to find four of the usual 
suspects barely rising above the noise for a couple of minutes each.   
I'm glad the SDR did all the work while I slept and got ready to head 
out the door.

Good - Nice strong signal with easily understood audio
ROTFLMHO

Fair - Just barely enough audio for a native speaker to recognize a few 
words now and then
747    JOIB, man and woman in Japanese 1426-30

Poor - Definitely not imaginary audio, but not by much
774    JOUB, talk //747 1428
972    HLCA, woman talking 1510
1566    HLAZ, faint talk by woman 1441
