Hello All,
The Asian mainland stations definitely had the edge here today, with
648-VOR the best performer of the morning with its Chinese service (around
1310). As sometimes happens here during September, 657 had a mix of Pyongyang's
obsolete music and a weak Chinese co-channel (Henan?). 558-HLQH had decent
audio at times in KPQ splatter, and 738-BEL2 in Taiwan had a late rally around
1330 to manage fair audio. The Chinese stations on 639, 756, 936 and 1377 were
there with anemic audio, but nothing to shout about.
With the exception of 972-HLCA's excellent signal the usual TP big guns
(594, 693, 747, 774, 828, 1053, 1134, 1566 and 1575) were not especially
vibrant, although the NHK stations were slightly improved over yesterday. The
TP's seemed to dive in unison rather early this morning here (around 1325) with
the exception of 738-BEL2, which reached its best audio around 1330. It will be
interesting to hear whether or not the other DXers also had a Mainland Asia
slant in their TP results this morning.
