FROM REDMOND, WA Strong SS noted over/under KDXU 9/22 8:30-9p PDT. Sounded like paid Spanish religion 8:30-8:45 and also 8:45-8:50p (this one with a Costa Mesa, CA mailing address) and then music til I tuned out at 9. At 8:57, signal dropped way down abruptly, and then whimpered back to about half of what it was. Couldn't pull out ID. My guess is the Meridian,ID station running 50kw at night. Not a peep out of CJDC.

Several low end NHK stations had their best signals of the season, as did the North Korean on 657. I also had a tantalizing carrier (possibly from the KBS station) on 711 trying to break through the KIRO splash and almost succeeding. The upper part of the dial was less interesting, with most stations putting in half-hearted appearances at best. Even 1566 was below normal. GOOD - a native speaker would have understood most of it for at least a minute or so 594 JOAK, man & woman conversing 1331 747 JOIB, English lesson peaking 1323, woman talking about American Revolution //774 774 JOUB, English lesson quite strong today 1300-1330 972 HLCA, Korean man & woman 1342, not as strong as yesterday 1566 HLAZ, peaking for a couple of minutes 1317 with Japanese woman.
