Hello All,
Korean and Chinese stations came back in force on the low band here this
morning, with vibrant mixes on both 603 and 657. Yesterday's topic of
conversation (with Nick) 603-HLSA was in a snarl with China (Hulun Buir?) at
the start of the session at 1245, and steadily built up strength until its pop
music at 1255 briefly pegged the PL-380's S/N display at the 25 maximum (the
first time that it's ever managed this in Puyallup over 7 years). 603-China was
persistent, though, and it made the frequency pretty wild all session long.
657-Pyongyang was also in a mix with China (Henan?) for much of the session,
making its tirades sound pretty throttled at times. 639-CNR1 had the frequency
all to itself for a huge signal at 1318 (the best heard here in 2 years), and
558-HLQH had no trouble keeping up a nice parallel with the monster-signal
603-HLSA.
The usual TP big guns were vibrant on 594, 693, 747, 774, 828, 972, 1053, 1134,
1287, 1566 and 1575 this morning, with 594-JOAK and 972-HLCA especially strong.
The session was one of the best in recent memory for the low-band Koreans and
Chinese, making the morning sound like something worthy of mid-October.
603 HLSA Namyang, S. Korea Very strong with pop music over China
at 1255; this recording pegged the PL-380's S/N at the strongest
point

603 China (Hulun Buir?) Temporarily dominant over HLSA at 1254, but the
Korean station's pop music eventually dominates strongly at the end
of the MP3
