[IRCA] 3" FSL Tecsun PL-380 TP-DX for 3-23



As Colin and Nick have reported the Asians were full of energy this morning, although until late in sunrise enhancement the results here mostly favored the Japanese and Korean big guns. Late on around 1350 there was aÂboost toÂsome relatively obscure Chinese stations on 936 and 1044, but these signals didn't stick around for long. 
 
At my 1305 start time the NHK big guns on 693 and 747 were setting the paceÂwith good peaks, along with some occasional huge signals from 972-HLCA during its variety program. Until the first sign of daylight around 1330 these big guns and the other Japanese on 594, 774 and 828 were the only energetic signals, taking turns reaching very good levels at times. 972-HLCA reached excellent levels at 1309 with Korean female talk and at 1320 with female vocal music. Late on around 1345 some mid-band Chinese stations started getting a late sunrise enhancement boost, with 936 (presumed Anhui) and 1044-CRI managing weak audio peaks in and out. 738 also had weak Chinese peaks for much of the session (with programming typical of BEL2), while 1143 was managing a strong carrier but couldn't quite break into audio. Other than the usual fair signals from the 1053-Jammer and 1566-HLAZ that was pretty much the story, with the high band distinctly anemic here. Best Asian signal of the session was from 972-HLCA, with very strong traditional KoreanÂfemale vocal music at 1320.
