Started listening earlier this morning 1345UT, through to 1530, and the results possibly reflect the time spent on it. My impression was that sunrise enhancement wasn't as "good" as yesterday in raw strength and number of signals, but there were some interesting ones. In general, I suspect raw strength was at a premium throughout the period, and as Walt surmised, the lower band was better before 1500UT.
In general, lots heard, but they needed work. pretty darn good audio (at least briefly): 774 JOUB 828 JOBB reasonable audios at several times during the period (though often battling w/splash or noise): 279 R. Rossii 567 JOxx 594 JOAK 711 HL xx; KK talk by man, faded back up several times after 1415UT 747 JOIB; didn't even make it to this strength until 1430UT 873 JOGB //828 at 1414UT, and at other times previous to 1500UT 972 HLCA usual huge carrier, weakish audio; still audio traces to be heard at 1714UT, but followed by a deep fade 1098 unID w/mx at 1531, don't think it was Taiwan, as not //7185 at this time; weak talk a little later sounded CC; 1395 slow vocal pop mx at 1532UT; very unusual channel on which to hear anything at home 1566 HLAZ (like 972, and not until 1539UT); still a healthy carrier at 1736UT 1575 likely Thailand at 1430UT, not all that strong a signal this morning not so reasonable audio, occasional words in splash or noise: 153 and 189 R. Rossii 558 likely JOCR 585 JOxx //567 603 need to catch this one past the hour; S. Korea seems most likely 639 CNR1//5030 648 mx at 1419, likely V of Russia 657 monster hum concealing the audio, likely N. Korea 693 JOxx //774 738 big carrier, FF talk by man at 1357 would be Tahiti; the anomaly of the morning 954 likely JOxx 1134 a bit of a mess, nothing really dominant 1206 mostly hum, some broken up talk coming through at 1522, likely China 1377 CNR1//5030 at 1424; didn't seem to be // earlier 1386 NHK2 //828 at 1412 UT 1503 JOxx //594 at 1520UT 1557 WYFR with the usual slow talking deep-voiced man 1593 CNR1//5030 at 1405 Burbles in the splatter and noise: 702 NHK2 // 828 945 CNR1 //5030 at 1527 1098 big carrier as always, but two stations here seemed to be from Asia, and pretty sure one was Taiwan //7185, but pretty murky 1404 mostly hum, but some mx there as well 1485 man talking, too echoey to tell language, at 1536UT 1512 talk at 1535UT might have been CC, but too murky to tell Strongish het, no audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter): 1008, 1188, 1359, 1467, 1521 best wishes, Nick ***************************** Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, BC Canada _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
