I heard about what Walt did today and gotta call it low
average/lackluster or similar. What action there was fell below 1100,
save for 5 of the regulars up top. There was a bit of interest,
though, during the very pronounced burst right at dawn:
666: Had Mayak RR//576 loud briefly before it fell back into a fur
ball with the JJ and a CC thrown in. It was a real UN meeting for a
while. The Mayak is listed at Komsomolsk near the Amur River and a
somewhat rare visitor here.
675: V of Vietnam was doing well in the middle part of the morning
but was fighting with a Chinese at dawn.
783: I rarely hear audio here but I've had Hebei Province, China here
in the past. This morning it was Korean, I'm almost certain and there
is a 10 kW KBS1 listed here.
864: Had the OC here again, though somewhat diminished this AM.
Walt, did I understand you to say that the Koreans seemed diminished
this year to you??? I feel the opposite. I seem to have Koreans all
over the dial... little beyond KBS in South Korea, but a slew of
those and more North Koreans around than I've ever noticed
before. For me, there are two black clouds... one sitting on top of
most everything above 1100 on the dial and the other perched squarely
over Japan. Did I misunderstand what you meant about the Koreans being down???
That's about it from here on a stunningly beautiful Sunday morning
(the kind that we don't tell the tourists about.)
