(Chuck Bolland, October 18, 2009) Indonesia, 9525.92, Voice of Indonesia, 1113-1130, Noted a woman in Chinese language comments. From the pace she is speaking, it's easy to determine that Chinese isn't here principle language. Comments continued as the signal remained at a fair level. (Chuck Bolland, October 18, 2009) Watkins Johnson HF1000 26.37N 081.05W Well the cool wave finally arrived over night here in Florida. Fortunately it is only a mild one because it's a chore to type these loggings with cold hands. The weather person says we will be back to normal (hot and humid) temps by Tuesday. Following that, I suppose it will be a continuous cycle for the next couple of months of hot and cold until spring arrives? Happily there's two positives that result from this cool weather, the air-conditioner can take a rest which reduces the electric cost and the hurricane season is almost finished for this year. I am not feeling too positive about the DX conditions however. I have a feeling that I've seen the last of good conditions like occurred 20 years ago? Also, I don't know why so many countries have given up on shortwave? "Hey we are still out here listening! Those people with their Ipods never listened in the first place, so what's the problem?"
