More DU today, but otherwise, it was big guns acting like very little guns indeed.
pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly):
nope
Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling with splash or noise):
and nope
not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker:
too much to ask for
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)
531 island style vocals and bass line, then man talking across the hour, maybe DU English?? 1353-1404UT; PI?
603 woman talking, 1359-1401UT, but nothing on hour, suspect NZ judging by other DX heard on the lower band
612 two men talking, DU English intonation 1354UT
828 man talking, Japanese intonation 1432UT
1017 island choral music 1403UT, likely Tonga
1566 man mumbling, possible Chinese, in and out from 1425-1431UT
1557 man talking, Chinese intonation 1433UT
1593 CNR1 man and woman talking, Chinese intonation, pip on half hour, bits of CNR1 theme music 1430UT
Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter)
594 747 774 972 1494 seemed to be Asian;
657 702 756 1098 1116 seemed to be DU
