Unfortunately, this morning was much more in the "decent burial" category.
pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly):
no
Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling with splash or noise):
indeed not
not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker:
972 HLCA 1529UT
1566 HLAZ man in Russian 1631UT, best signal level this morning, well after local sunrise
Burbles in the splatter and noise (if lucky, language might be guessed at by cadence of talk, or parallel established by changes in talk or music)
594 man talking, Japanese intonation 1501UT, but nothing on hour
612 man talking, DU English intonation 1504UT
774 man talking, Japanese intonation 1519UT
1503 JOUK assumed; piano music, 1553UT, NHK pips 1600UT
Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter)
567 603 747 828 873 1287 1386 1494 1593 seemed to be Asian;
738 855 891 1017 1098 seemed to be DU
best wishes,
