[IRCA] TP 23 Mar Victoria version

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

Conditions again were not quite as good as yesterday, but with second 
tier stations still doing well, and nothing like the deterioration 
expected from the recent geomagnetic upset.   Quite a reasonable 
sunrise enhancement, mostly dying down about 10 minutes before local 
sunrise at 1408UT.




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

567 JOIK peak at 1336UT with woman in Japanese
594 JOAK woman in Japanese 1343UT
774 JOUB Chinese lessons 1342UT; still quite good at 1440UT s/off after JOUB ID
828 JOBB Chinese lessons 1345UT, music box still making it through at 
s/off 1441UT




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

603 HLSA male vocal 1350UT, big carrier, //558
747 JOIB Chinese lessons 1331UT
873 JOGB Chinese lessons 1342UT; also, some of the music box s/off 
crept through at 1443UT
972 HLCA  man in Korean 1404UT,
1566 HLAZ choral music, woman in Chinese 1358UT; still fading up to 
quite good levels later, more choral music and man in Chinese at 
1429UT for example




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

558 HLQH quiet vocal music 1344UT; slightly later, ID'd with //603, 
but 603 had different quiet music from somebody else at this time.
702 NHK2 Chinese lessons 1331UT
738 Taiwan Fisheries, woman in Chinese after pop music 1350UT
891 JOHK  woman in Japanese //594 1358UT
954 JOKR man in Japanese 1341UT
1287 JOHR man in Japanese 1346UT
1314 unID old US pop "Sunny" 1347UT, went straight into another tune 
afterwards, so no clues.  What the heck, listened to the fading down 
while typing this, and at 1355UT man in what sounded like Japanese, so JOUF?




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)

666 JOBK woman talking //594  1336UT
693 JOAB man talking //774 1357UT
711 woman singing in somewhat anguished  style 1359UT; KIRO's big 
performance on the hour masked any hope of 711 ID.
864 woman talking, perhaps Korean 1405-6UT
1116 female ballad, talk by man sounded more Japanese than DU English 1336UT
1242 ballad 1402UT
1422 woman talking, Japanese inflection 1348UT
1503 JOUK man tlking //594, edge of audibility, 1339UT
1593 CNR1 man talking, not //774, and seemed //6125 at 1352UT



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

 531 585 846 1008 1044  1053 1134 1143 1179  1323 1386  1458 1494 
seemed to be Asian;    1098  seemed   DU



best wishes,

Nick
