Hello John and others, I'm sure that Guy will be most amused at your new moniker to describe us :-) The low-band Asians were strong as usual this morning, with the Koreans especially vibrant, notably 603-HLSA, 657-Pyongyang and 756-KBS. As has been usual here in September, a very definite but short sunrise enhancement started around 1320, reached its peak around 1335, and was gone by 1345. 603-HLSA had its strongest signal of the young season so far, playing Korean and American pop music at 1332. I was lucky enough to get an MP3 of them at their peak (1332) with a huge signal during an American pop music number. There was only a trace of the weak 603 kHz co-channel from yesterday, believed to be Chinese (possibly the 10 kw Beijing station, but no definite clues). 756-KBS had a signal rivaling that of HLSA, but the very short sunrise enhancement here made it tough to check the high-band Koreans. 972-HLCA had a flamethrower signal as usual, and 657-Pyongyang had some serious power behind their ragged signal as they continued their tireless tirades. Except for JOBK-666, the Japanese seemed to be weaker than usual this morning, as has been typical throughout this month (as noted by others). But at least for the low-band Koreans, this was the best morning observed here so far. 73, Gary Modified ICF-2010 spotting receiver (30" loopstick) Modified C.Crane SWP Slider (7.5" loopstick) 36" Collapsible frame tuned passive loop (bedside) _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca
