The new year started off with a bit of a bang. Another of those mornings, where things were probably missed. NHK2 was off again at 1440UT with good strength; carriers were even better strength later during the sunrise enhancement
pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly):
594 JOAK 1547UT 738 Taiwan Fisheries //1143 man in Chinese 1528UT 747 JOIB 1443UT s/off 774 JOUB 1441UT s/off 828 JOBB 1443UT s/off 972 HLCA 1543UT (notes say "immense") 1566 HLAZ 1643UT man in Russian; best of the morning for this one
Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling with splash or noise):
567 JOIK 1541UT 639 CNR1 //1098 1544UT 666 JOBK //594 1544UT 729 JOCK woman //594 briefly plowing through the 730 splash 1529UT 873 JOGB s/off 1440UT 954 JOKR two men Japanese 1604UT 1287 JOHR HBC rajio mention by man at 1544UT 1557 Taiwan man and woman in Chinese 1554UT; also orchestral music from another station? No buzz noted on it, as Walt described not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 585 JOPG //594 1537UT 603 HLSA //558 1557UT 711 HLKA man //864 1538UT; someone else there too, Chinese? 819 orchestra and operatic singing 1555UT N. Korea? 891 JOHK //594 1532UT 945 NHK1 //594 1541UT 1098 CNR1 //639 1547UT, slight delay 1323 pop music 1552UT, presumed CRI? 1575 man SE Asian language assumed VoA 1551UT
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)
531 JOQG //594 1552UT 558 HLQH //603 1557UT 585 man Chinese ? 1542UT 612 JOLK //594 1526UT 621 soft music 1555UT, but 900 delivered only very weak Chinese pips at 1600UT; no parallel available 657 orchestral music 1527UT N. Korea? 675 NHK1 //594 1603UT 702 woman Chinese ? 1549UT 837 man Chinese? 1538UT 846 ballad no idea 1537UT 864 HLKR //711 1538UT 855 man mumbling; woman also on other station 1540UT 945 CNR1 //1098 1547UT 1008 man Chinese? 1545UT 1089 piano music 1552UT China? 1116 man Japanese? 1546UT 1143 Taiwan Fisheries 1538UT /738 1188 JOKP //594 1557UT 1242 woman Japanese? 1556UT 1422 JORF? ballad 1601UT; nothing on hour 1575 Iran buzzer 1542UT
Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter)
909 918 936 963 1107 1161 1179 1206 1269 1332 1494 1503 seemed to be Asian;
nothing seemed to be DU
