Saturday morning was quite productive DX-wise. Several second tier NHK
stations were in, as were several CNR1 outlets. The North Koreans on
819 and 873 managed to sneak past strong locals on 820 and 880 today.
KNOM made its first appearance of the season, while its cross town rival
KICY overpowered local KHHO. All told, this was easily my best morning
so far this season. Once again, nearly all the action was below 1100.
HLAZ-1566 was the only really strong signal in the upper half of the dial.
Great audio, portions would be easily understood by a native speaker

639 CNR1, CC talk //981, best I've heard it in a long time. Usually
gets buried in KCIS-630 splatter

828 JOBB male JJ talk 1328
873 JOGB fair talk //774 1324, soon faded u/emphatic talk & patriotic

quiet for a change.
