I'm at Grayland this weekend with Chuck & Tom. As is usually the case,
it was a much different story out here. There were lots of TP's to be
heard, with carriers on nearly all of the 9 kHz channels. About 80-90%
of the stations were from Japan including many of the low powered NHK
outlets. For example, at 1400 963 was a mix of weak NHK1 pips and news
plus a little bit of CRI. Other NHK frequencies I've found so far
include 648 990 999 1035 1071 1089 1125 1152 1296 1386 1512 and 1602, in
addition to the usual suspects. Some of the Japanese commercial
stations did well at times, too, with 1179 being an especially notable
example.
Chinese and Koreans were inaudible or barely there most of the time,
with 1566 being a major exception. VOA-1575 was also good around
sunrise with something in the background (probably an FEN outlet).
There were also a few of the more common DUs, such as 702 891 1017 and
1503, but they were generally weaker than normal. I also had something
on 1611 with contemporary-sounding music, including a Christmas song,
possibly one of the Vision network outlets.
Two more days to go.

Can't say that it improved much as time went on; in fact the DU level
may have declined.
Sounded like another ionospheric blanket has arrived.
best wishes,
