Nick, Thanks for posting the 594-JOAK recording, which was very interesting for comparison purposes. Your proximity to salt water usually seems to give you a longer-running sunrise enhancement boost than the watered-down version available here. 594-JOAK and the other NHK big guns had completely bailed out here about 10 minutes prior to your recording. By the way, if someone had told me five years ago that we would be spending our time in 2014 posting and comparing MP3's of 594-JOAK, I would never have believed it. 73, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA, USA) ----- Original Message -----

Kept up a fair signal to past 1500UT, after pips, several mentions of America (election news?) (http://www3.telus.net/public/shallpat/listen/JOAK_20141105_1457.wav) NHK1 would be the way to learn Japanese, wonderful enunciation. Incidentally, there was hardly any signal here at the time Gary recorded JOAK this morning. Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise): 774 JOUB EE lessons "obits are a favorite part of the newspaper" 1432UT not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 828 JOBB CC lessons 1351UT Burbles in the splatter and noise (if lucky, language might be guessed at by cadence of talk, or parallel established by changes in talk or music) 612 4QR? woman talking, maybe EE? 1445UT 747 JOIB traces of EE lesson 1440UT //774 1116 4BC? man and woman talking, DU EE inflection 1355UT Strongish het, no or "near imaginary"audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter) 891 1323 1566 best wishes, Nick _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected] _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
