However, Hiroo Nakagawa in Japan has told me that he is certain that 
it is JOXR in Okinawa, recognizing both the announcer's voice, as 
well as the call letters.

This makes much more sense from a propagation standpoint, and is 
certainly still good DX from this location.   But I am embarrassed 
that I cannot hear call letters in my own language properly, hi

best wishes,
