[IRCA] the little man who presses the overdrive switch on the transmitter

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

The little Japanese man who presses the overdrive switch on the NHK2 
transmitters as they sign off was hard at work this morning.   He 
must be related to Santa Claus, as he seems to have the same power to 
be in different locations at quite closely spaced time 
intervals.   First he was in Akita (774), then nipped off to Sapporo 
(747), and finished off with a visit to Morioka (1386), all of which 
came from nowhere (though 774 had been heard earlier).  Osaka (828) 
was perhaps a bit far away, though I haven't carefully listened to 
the recording.

Now, he's put his feet up in Tokyo (594) having run out of NHK2 
stations on the air.   JOAK is thundering in at 1558UT, again 
completely unheard earlier.



best wishes for Christmas,

Nick
