Continuing poor conditions. NHK2 again off at 1440UT, with JOUB-774 managing a bit of the anthem before subsiding beneath the waves.
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):
no
not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker:
and still no
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)
612 man talking, DU English intonation 1502UT
891 man, DU English? another on phone, 1514UT
972 woman talking, possible Korean 1511UT
1017 pop vocal music 1517UT, Tonga likely?
1566 choral music 1523UT, likely HLAZ
Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter)
774 828 seemed to be Asian;
738 855 1098 seemed to be DU
