[IRCA] TP for 17 Oct from Victoria, BC

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

Things were a little better here this morning, but still not what I'd regard as stellar.  Because it's not a work day, I really tried to mine things a bit, and lasted from 1400 to after 1440UT, when the NHK2 transmitters were still holding forth a bit, and showing no signs of signing off, which they were doing at that time a few weeks ago when they were being heard on Haida Gwaii.

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

594 JOAK at 1431
774 JOUB 
828 JOBB
972 HLCA, not until 1438UT though


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

747 JOIB
1206 Yanbian, faded up nicely at 1417, but pretty poor other times
1287 JOHR waited until 1440UT; some of this readability is due to lower splatter with daylight!
1566 HLAZ not until 1430UT though; quite poor before this


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

567 JOIK //594
585 JOPG //594 at 1424UT
603 HLSA; ID'd  by //558
873 JOGB //828 at 1429
936 likely Anhui w/mx; faded up at 1419; this has a strong carrier many mornings
1242 various times; assumed JOLF

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) :

279 R. Rossii
558 HLQH //603
612 JOLK //594  later on
639 not sure if this was //4460, so unID
801 fair sized hum, maybe some talk; N. Korea? no other N. Koreans however
864 no idea
1044 maybe CRI, but // on SW was even weaker, so not sure; maybe time to cook up a new // list?
1053 talk and strong carrier , so no idea?
1143 Taiwan??
1179 JJ?
 1269 not //1287
1314 JJ?
1377 CNR1?



Strongish het, no audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter):

1098 DU, 1323


best wishes,

Nick
