Today's report will be very abbreviated, focusing on the really good
stuff. I was gone all day and by the time I got home, TA's were
starting to come in for the first time this season. So I had limited
time for listening to the SDR recording of what was obviously an
impressive morning. Anyway, there's probably more to be reported if I
can find the time to dig through the files.
621 UNID, dreamy vocal song 1356 good but soon faded, possibly DPRK
639 CHINA, CNR1, 1400:30 a few bars of the theme music played during
IDs //981 etc. Very poor in horrific KCMS-630 splatter. Much better
1403 w/fair male in Chinese //1098
675 VIETNAM, 1359 woman in Vietnamese, then chime IS and pips at ToH
(both matching what was heard at 0500 on the Vietnam Kiwisdr receiver).
After the pips there was rousing march music. The ID, if any, was
tooweak to copy, but everything else matches perfectly
720 CHINA, 1400 5+1 pips weak mixing w/faint domestic (probably
KFIR). Possible march music just before ToH
756 CHINA, CNR1, 1354, quite good today, male talk //1098 etc
810 CHINA, bits of Chinese talk surfacing 1357 amid a weak jumble of
stuff, 1359:45 distinctive chime melody then 5+1 pips at toh. Then
various anmts that sounded like ads, mostly weak over faint remnants of
KGO & KTBI, also a prominent buzz from something off-frequency
837 CHINA, 1359 pop vocal continued across ToH, 1400:15 5+1time pips,
then ID with lush orchestral backing, too weak to understand. Possibly
Harbin, based on past experience
855 DPRK?, 1400 woman just before ToH,3+1 pips, then more talk,
announcing style typical of DPRK but couldn't get 657 or 819 clear
enough to // it
891 CHINA?, 1401 rapid Chinese talk dominant
900 CHINA, 1400 weak 5+1 pips u/KKRT
918 CHINA, Shandong RGD, 1345 male talk in Chinese good at times,
1359 ad or promo by man & woman, Shandong mentioned just before 5+1 pips
1400, then clear "Shandong Renmim Guangbo DIentai" ID
1017 CHINA, CRI, 1400 usual top of hour stuff, chimes & trumpets, IDs
in Chinese and Korean fair-poor, I think this was the first audio of the
season for this one
1062 S KOREA, 1401 man with news, sounded Korean so apparently HLKQ
1170 S KOREA, 1400 3+1 pips u/KPUG, not much else if anything
