Today's report is abbreviated a bit. I left off most of the easy stuff
like JOUB & HLAZ to save time. I also left off a bunch of cases where
all I had was traces of audio, also to save time.
The Chinese were in abundance today, while the Japanese were mostly well
below normal (with a couple of exceptions). Highlights today included
what I'm pretty sure were CNR5-1116 and Jinan-1305.
558 S KOREA, KBS, 1259 fair w/"Happy FM" jingle, ID and time tone,
then easy listening music
567 JAPAN, JOIK, 1426, animated conversation //594 good but much KVI
splash

729 UNID, 1437 woman in Chinese with excerpts from pipe organ music
738 TAIWAN (presumed) 1405 woman in Chinese good o/unid. No ID but
announcing style was typical of the Fishery station.
756 CHINA, CNR1, 1406 good w/several ads in Chinese
783 CHINA, 1359 Chinese talk w/echo, 1400:10 two sets of 3 time
pips, slightly offset, then anmt that may have been an ID but too weak
to tell. Possibly Hebei.
819 DPRK/CHINA, 1302 emphatic Korean woman mostly dominant, getting
QRM from Chinese talk station fair in 820 splash
837 CHINA 1400 probably Harbin w/5+1 pips ending at 1400:20 then anmt

900 CHINA, 1400 weak pips u/CKBI: two 5+1 slightly out of sync pips,
followed by a third set.
936 CHINA?, 1436 Chinese male talk mixing w/music, both poor in
domestic splash
945 CHINA, CNR1 1400 the usual "Zhongyang Renmin Guangbo Diantai" ID
followed by fast talking man
963 CHINA, CRI good w/the usual fanfare & Russian/Chinese IDs, then

Diantai" ID followed by male talk

1098 CHINA, CNR1 1403 good w/Chinese talk //others
1116 CHINA, CNR5 (tentative) 1400 distinctive chime music plus a
couple of weak IDs sounding like "Zhonghua zhi Sheng".
1170 S KOREA, 1300 "KBSWorld Radio" ID in English, then IDs in
Chinese, fair slightly weaker than KPUG
1305 CHINA, Jinan, 1300, weak w/distinctive electronic "Big Ben" type
clock chimes, then possible ID. Slightly better 1302 with Chinese
talk. No ID heard but the chimes match what I heard at Grayland 2 weeks
ago, plus recordings I made (with "Jinan Wenyi Guangbo" IDs) off the
Cangzhou KiwiSDR receiver, which is only about 200 km from Jinan.
Listed as 10 kw but likely much more than that.
1575 THAILAND, VOA 1435 good w/talk in SE Asian language
