OK, thanks Gary.   I recall that discussion now, but thought at that time KBS w/CC as scheduled was likely (and a couple of weeks later heard at sea myself w/ KBS ID).   Of course at this later time, KBS is supposed to be in Korean according to WRTH.

It will be interesting to see what you track down, as I was hearing CC type talk myself this morning on that channel, but didn't stop to figure out if it might be Cantonese or standard Chinese (not being an expert in such matters).  But CNR1 on that channel would be new for me also, and I didn't hear it at Grayland.

best wishes,

Nick
