[IRCA] TPs for 26 Sept

[Bruce Portzer <bportzer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It was another nice morning for TPs.   Several CNR and CRI stations were 
poking through today, but provincial Chinese stations are still missing 
in action.

JOIB-747 was quite good at times, easily beating 774 for the honor of 
being the strongest NHK station today.  Some of the lower tier NHK 
stations were audible as well, with JOIK-567 making an especially 
gallant effort at fighting its way through the splatter from local KVI-570.

Alaskans were generally good, with KENI-650 and KBYR-700 making their 
first appearances of the season.
