TP 23 Jan Victoria version.

Thursday, January 24 2019


Definite improvement this morning. NHK2 signed off again at 1440UT, but with considerably more zip than previous days: JOUB-774 was at good level; 747 and 828, fair; 702 and 873 poor; but all audible, as were their carriers later, when my actual monitoring period started, one hour before local sunrise


A slight sunrise lift brought in the Philippines on 1611, but no HLAZ.


pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly):

not yet


Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling with splash or noise):


594 JOAK 1545UT

603 HLSA ballad, relaxed man in Korean 1542UT

not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker:

567 JOIK 1601UT

972 HLCA 1549UT

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)

558 HLQH ballad //603 1515UT

585 JOPG man //594 1518UT

612 man talking DU English intonation 1504UT

657 man talking DU English intonation 1504UT, not //612

1557 man talking, perhaps Chinese intonation 1557UT

1575 man and woman mumbling 1555UT; VoA?

1593 CNR1 female vocal //6175 1602UT

1611 R. Mindanao network; male ballad 1555UT, same noted on Hong Kong KiwiSDR which fortunately maintained reasonable strength until 1600UT, when a "RMN" ID was noted. Haven't found a webstream for this yet.


Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter)
702 747 774 828 873 1134 1422 1458 1566 seemed to be Asian;
558 756 891 1017 seemed to be DU


best wishes,

Nick
