Hello All,
There was a fair variety of Asian signals on both the low and high band this
morning, but the lack of any significant sunrise enhancement boost left most of
them floundering at an anemic level.
At 1415 the Japanese big guns on 594, 693 and 747 were already in and out with
fair signals, to be joined by 972-HLCA and 1134-KBS with similar signals around
1430. Around the same time both 1566-HLAZ and 1593-CNR1 came up to fair audio
in and out of the splatter, while 594-JOAK and 972-HLCA briefly managed good
levels. A recheck of the low band around 1435 revealed a whole collection of
ghostly signals from 603-China (mixing with HLSA, both at poor levels),
639-CNR1 (barely audible in KFI splatter), 648-Russia (poor at best),
657-Pyongyang (thankfully weak) and a presumed 738-BEL2 in anemic Chinese. This
low band collection apparently wasn't very impressed with the sunrise
enhancement boost (or lack of it), and collectively bailed into the noise about
ten minutes later (around 1445), along with 693-JOAB, 747-JOIB, 1566-HLAZ and
1593-CNR1. This left only the diehards 594-JOAK and 972-HLCA around by 1450,
neither of which were particularly energetic. Overall it was a pretty m!
eager session for strong audio, but not too bad in the variety of Asian
signals that showed up.
73 and Good DX,
