Overall, this was a pretty good morning. The highlight was hearing
JOHB-1089 through the local 1090 splash. There were also several second
tier Chinese stations checking in, with 918 and 981 putting in their
best signals so far this season. I remembered to listen for Alaskans
today and heard KICY & KBBI, plus possible audio from KDLG KFQD and KNOM.
