I managed to do a quick bandscan on the R8A/K9AY today at 1130 UT (3:30
am local), just before driving my daughter to the airport for an early
morning flight.
Oddly enough, JOAB-693 was the strongest TP at the time, even though
Nick and Gary didn't report it. JOAB was coming in quite well, and
JOAK-594 was only slightly weaker. JOIB-747 and JOUB-774 were readable
but much weaker. There were also bits of audio or hets on other freqs,
including 567 621 639 738 909 972 and 981. There may have been others,
but time was short.
It sounds like Gary had much better reception 2.5 hours earlier, as did
Nick a 3.5 hours later.

Hello All,
Occasionally in January some excellent TP propagation occurs in the early
morning on the west coast, and today was apparently one of those days.
Despite the inconvenient local hour (0100), Asian signals were very strong
around 0900 UTC on the 7.5" loo
Yes, I need to restructure my listening obviously, hi....maybe next weekend.
Actually this morning wasn't bad here, though more in the sense that some big
guns were flexing their audio muscles a bit for a change, but everything else
still involved the erratic fade ups giving the occasional reward to the
intrepid DXer rootling in the undergrowth. But this intrepid DXer didn't have
much time, and only listened for a few minutes after 1500UT. (NHK-2 s/off was
later than 1500 today, but don't know when exactly)
