Hey Dennis/all: Up here near Seattle, things were actually decent. Starting at 1310 UTC, 558 and 603 finally paralleled nicely, confirming Korea's KBS2 network: 558 was particularly strong. 693-Japan was at barefoot armchair level on my Tecsun PL-310 for a while - amazing, since 690-Vancouver is no slouch here.
As for above 1000 khz, it was dead except for 1566 until about 15 minutes before sunrise (LSR is ~1405), when the lower band died and the upper band sprang to life. Decent audio on 1134, 1422, and 1503 (//594, so NHK-1) among others. Hets on most of the channels. At about 1410 things plummeted dramatically.
