Singularly dead with the odd carrier (based on Nickâs fish barrel...) it was as if the ionosphere was frozen...

I continue to test an online KIWI websdr at my location - hence the comatose conditions.

Hi Chris,
I only wish that I had more hours to go through your 
site.  Interesting radio stuff of course, but your impressions of 
Korea and other details of that nature are extremely worthwhile also.
I think that the write up on Asian DX targets' webstreams is still to 
come is it?
Thanks for putting that up.

merely a temporary home for two years in lieu of this new page that

In addition to that, I have built new pages featuring all KBS local 
addresses for those QSL seekers and a new/improved page for Chinese 
ID vocabulary (i.e. guangbo, dianshi zong tai, zhi sheng, etc.) with 
full English and pinyin translations for each clip. Both were 
previously PDFs. I also have a plan to add a similar page for MBC 
local addresses and update my list of Asian station streams.
For those who have interests beyond MW, you can also find all my FM 
content, including my full Chinese tropo and E-skip log with 3 hours 
of audio, and my new 6-hour 500 top-of-hour ID project for my 530 FM 
regulars here in Michigan. And other stuff too.
Hope some of you will check it out and let me know if there are 
other such resources that I may have access to that anyone would be 
interested in.

I can only echo Nickâs comments Chris â what a great page. Itâs going to take some time to explore all the things youâve got here.

And what a great resource for helping ID Asian MW stations! Looking forward to using it on some real, live DX soon!

Thanks for your efforts!

Now that was quite a bit better. Mainly a Japanese lift on the upper band around sunrise; before then, the now normal dullness prevailed.

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

no

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

1422 JORF woman in Japanese 1552UT

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

1242 JOLF man in Japanese 1541-3UT

1566 ? rather lively music for HLAZ, then woman in Chinese 1547UT, maybe someone else in Chinese underneath.

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)

972 man talking, maybe Korean? 1546UT

1134 woman talking, sounded Japanese 1542UT

1314 woman talking, Japanese intonation, then pop music 1539UT

1332 woman and man talking 1543UT, Japanese intonation

1593 CNR1 man talking //6175 1553UT

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

1098 1179 1269 1287 1386 1431 1449 1458 1494 1557 seemed to be Asian;
nothing much seemed to be DU

best wishes,

Nick
