I could not say this was Japanese so I passed it along to Japanese DXer
Hiroo Nakagawa. His response:
"I listened to it carefully. But even I Japanese native speaker can’t
judge the language. As I can’t pick up any word, I can’t say for sure
that it is Japanese."

Hi Tim,
<<< I appreciate the comments regarding my first reception of presumed Japan
on 747 on Sunday morning. I've posted a longer recording to Youtube,
actually a recording of the SDR capture. The video begins using a
narrow filter and is then repeated using a wider filter. Some faint
talk can be heard. Perhaps someone with more experienced ears than mine
can take a guess at the language heard here (headphones recommended!):

Thanks for posting the longer recording of your 747 kHz TP reception on YouTube.
I've listened to the recording with headphones, as recommended. At 4:16 into the video the male
speaker uses a phrase which pretty much indicates that the language is Japanese ("ano...
dookaku no") which roughly translates as "no matter what..." in English. He is using
more intonation than what is commonly used in the monotone-styled Japanese language, but this is
possibly an attempt to make the speech more interesting for a radio listener. My own opinion is
that the speech is Japanese, although other TP-DXers may have further comments (especially in how
the program matches up to the NHK2 archives). BTW, I lived in Japan as a high school brat (1967-69).
