Nick's view was a good one --
>From Kona Hawaii (this AM at around 0600 Local) 1600 UTC methinks...
There was the kind of activity from 531 to 972 one would expect
on a low average morning... for November.... in Victoria.
However...
Much above 1100khz it was audio on every 9 and audio on almost every 10khz.
And almost all of it in English - only stayed up for about 15 minutes
because my head is not in it yet (have not even set up the Wellbrook...)
4QD on 1548 sounded like what KGO sounds like in Victoria on 810khz...
and there were lots of lesser DU's -
Yes I did hear a lot of muted JJ, CC and KK stations --
example: 855 was the exact jumble that I hear in Victoria LESS
the splatter.
The beauty of Hawaii is that there is no detectable IBOC
and there is little splatter because there are no AM stations
within 75 miles of KONA.
Yup. It is a radio paradise and I need to get into the groove.
Better report tomorrow.
Oh yea - the sunset JJ and Asians here start to rock around 9:30PM local time
and then they fade down within about 1/2 hour -- and then settle in for the
night.

Hi, Colin! We're still bobbing around the Tasman, and I went out last
night near sunset to listen to the band. Boy what a difference a day
makes, with every 9 kHz channel occupied by a DU station, and most of
those being NZ, even though we were still closer to Tasmania than NZ.
Checked for hets, and only came up with a single 10 kHz channel of 1180
in SS. Any ideas? Plenty of CC (I think they were mostly Cantonese)
activity as well. Southern Star had to be the commonest station heard.
Boy do they ever ID frequently! Another interesting note is that
Newstalk ZB plays quite a bit of music. I didn't expect that! A really
interesting one was 1314 with a sports play by play, but with an echo!
This was at 09:40. I'll have to get a full report in later. Off for a
run......Walt
