[IRCA] TP 21 Mar Victoria version

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

As others have noted, this morning wasn't quite as good as yesterday, 
but was still pretty reasonable.   Conditions did peter out sooner 
today, so most decent loggings were before 1400UT

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

594 JOAK woman in Japanese 1345UT
603 HLSA a bit of a swinging female vocal (at least for this station) 
peaking 1316UT //558
747 JOIB Chinese lessons 1351UT
774 JOUB Chinese lessons 1350UT; s/off for NHK2 again today was 1440UT
972 HLCA  woman in Korean 1347UT, this one hung around with varying 
audio quality until after 1520UT today
1566 HLAZ  man in Chinese 1356UT



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

567 JOIK man in Japanese //594 1304UT
657  Pyongyang Bangsong, woman in insistent Korean 1338UT //3320
693 JOAB Korean lessons 1306UT, clambering past CBU splatter
828 JOBB 1402 UT  English lessons discussing cherry blossoms, though 
so far as I could tell, not talking about sitting on blue tarpaulins 
under said blossoms, armed with large bottles of sake.
954 JOKR man in Japanese 1321UT




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

558 HLQH soft music //603, though quite weak on 603, fighting with 
another station
702 NHK2 lessons  //774 1312UT
711 HLKA man in Korean 1352UT
738 Taiwan Fisheries pop music 1323UT, fading down to woman talking 
Chines inflection 1325UT; ID'd later by //1143
864 HLKR man in Korean //711 1340UT
918 although two stations on channel trading places earlier, a man in 
Chinese faded up 1316UT
945 CNR1 man in Chinese 1339UT
1134 JOQR man in Japanese 1402UT ; two stations battling earlier
1143 Taiwan Fisheries, woman in Chinese then into instrumental music 
//738 1353UT
1287 JOHR man and woman in Japanese 1311UT




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)

621 woman talking, Korean inflection 1342UT; hadn't heard pips on 
half hour when man was talking
666 JOBK woman talking //594 1345UT
837 woman talking, not //594; Chinese inflection ? 1340UT
846 woman talking, sounded Chinese, and not //594, 1327UT
873 JOGB man and woman talking //774 1307UT
891 JOHK man talking //594 1308UT
963 CRI female vocal music 1346UT //1323
981 CNR1 woman and man talking //6125 1355UT
1044 woman talking Japanese inflectiion 1352UT
1206 woman talking , Korean inflection 1333UT
1323 CRI female vocal music 1346UT //963; again, strong carrier




Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or 
ravaged by splatter)

 639 855 936  1089  1098 1116  1242 1278  1314 1386 1422 1575 seemed 
to be Asian;    1098  seemed   DU



best wishes,

Nick
