ÂÂÂÂÂ A rather poor morning here, though I also saw the sunrise boost
at the upper end of the band that Nick observed.

594ÂÂÂ ÂÂ JOAKÂÂÂ Tokyo, JAPANÂÂÂ Pips and traces of talk at 1500
774ÂÂÂ ÂÂ JOUBÂÂÂ Akita, JAPANÂÂÂ Man in Japanese at 1457.
1116ÂÂÂ 4BCÂÂÂ Brisbane, AUSTRALIAÂÂ Ad string at 1457, with one ad 
mentioning Australia Day sale.
1548ÂÂÂ 4QDÂÂÂ Emerald, AUSTRALIAÂÂÂ Talk by a man at 1443
1566ÂÂ HLAZÂÂÂ Jeju, S.KOREAÂÂ Â Woman in Chinese at 1501, stronger than 
yesterday
1575ÂÂÂ VOAÂÂÂ THAILANDÂÂÂ Man in SE Asian language at 1454
1593ÂÂÂ CNR1ÂÂÂ CHINAÂÂÂ Man and woman in Chinese, //6125
A solid carrier on 1584 too, but never quite reached audio.ÂÂ The 
sunrise boost only seemed the benefit the signals above 1500 khz or so.

Nicely done Nigel.   Was it "ID by QSL", or did you have some other magic?
Never ID'd here, though there have been suspicions.  Usually, if 
Asian conditions are good here, then there arrives a big Chinese 
bruiser to contend with.
best wishes,
Nick

#1600 QSLed.    QSLing any station is getting harder, but Japanese 
are still about the most reliable.   Was happy to get JODR as it 
took luck to hear it given 4BC's dominance of the frequency, and 
then some effort and further luck to even identify it.
