Listened this morning between 13:18 and 14:30 UTC. A more northerly reception this morning, with southerly stations weaker than usual. Overall a very decent morning, especially on the higher band (but I started there and worked down, so perhaps a bias). The JJ 1st tier stations weren't nearly as strong as usual, especially 594, although Hokkaido 567 was booming in. Here's the list, with "6" unless otherwise noted. By the way, SF72, A0, K2.
558: KBS2 at 9 at 14:06 567: 9 level NHK1 at 14:07 and weak cochannel. 594: 8 level NHK1 and cochannel at 14:07 603: 9 level KBS2 612: Brisbane at 8 level 621: CC and North Korea at 7.5 level. North Korea on 621.905. The neat thing is I'm able to notch out either the N.K. or Chinese station (on exactly 621) with Perseus and hear either one or the other station! Very impressive, and even more so on the waterfall where the notch simply shows as a black hole! 639: CNR1 at 9 level 14:04. 640: Thanks to Colin for messaging me that KYUK was in loud and clear at 14:03 with local weather. Very good. 657: N. Korea at 7 702: 6 level. 2 stations on 702 and 702.031 720: 6 level 720 and 719.84 738: 7 level at 14:13 747: 9 level NHK2 with English lesson at 14:13 756: 7 774: 9 level NHK2 with English lesson. Still 8.5 at 14:30, but lacking the punch of yesterday. 783: 7 level with pop music at 14:15 and oriental cochannel. 792: 7 level 801: 7 level talk plus wobbly N. Korean on hi side today. 819: no audio but 2 transmitters on 819 and 819.076 828: 8 level NHK2 at 14:18 837, 846, 855, 864, 873, 882, 918, 927: all 6 936: 9 level CC at 13:18 945: CNR1 at 14:20 7 level 963: CRI RR at 7.5 at 14:21 1008 1017: 7 1134, 1143, 1152: all 7 at 14:22 1161: CC at 13:59 at 8 level 1170: 8 level strong CC music, and another CC speaker at 13:57 under KPUG, so perhaps both KBS and VOA? 1179 1188: 7 level 1206: As Patrick pointed out, very strong today at 9 level in KK (Yanbian) on 1205.981 1215, 1224, 1233, 1242, 1251: 7 level. Perhaps VOR CC ?//7300 plus another CC station plus possibly yet another cochannel at 13:52 1260: Prob JOIR over domestics at 8 1269: Several cochannels. CC and wk muddy audio from someone else. 7 level. 1278: 8 level JOFR 1287: 9 level JJ at 13:44 1296, 1314 1323: 7 level with music 1332: ? CC at 13:43 7 level 1341, 1359, 1368 1377: CNR1 at 8 level 1386 1440: 8.5 level JJ over domestic at 13:32 1458: John's great catch. Audio here at 7 level and possibly // the SW 7270, but SW not propagating well until well after LSR here. 1467: 7 1494: 7 1503, 1512, 1539: all 6 1557: WYFR at 8 level, except for significant splatter (much more than last season) at 14:23 1566: 8 level HLAZ at 13:25 and same level at 14:24 1575: pretty much a 10 at 13:25, but only 7 at 14:24 for VOA 1584: again 3 carriers at 6 level 1593: CC at 7 1602: NHK2 parallels weakly heard at 7 level, despite major splatter from 1600. 1701: weak audio at 6 late, with 3 carriers noted on 1701.008, .034 and .050 That's it from a windy but blue sky Victoria! .....Walt Salmaniw _______________________________________________ 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]
