Today was probably the best Asian morning all season for me. There were
plenty of signals in the lower and middle parts of the band, with very
little above 1200. There were lots of tantalizing carriers that almost
produced audio, and several more that produced weak audio. Vietnam 675
was the highlight of the day.

639 CHINA, CNR1, 1330 Chinese talk & time signal poor in KCIS-630
splash, rare here

mentioned twice. Seemed to match the anthem and ID posted for VOV1 on
intervalsignals.net

pips & woman talking, fair signal but poor copy in KGNW splatter

with possible echo on the audio
