As noted by Colin....yes, a better morning. May have missed one or two bits of DX.
pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): 747 JOIB 1520UT 774 JOUB 1505UT 828 JOBB 1510UT 972 HLSA 1508UT 1566 HLAZ woman then man in Korean 1729UT. I wasn't home, and the recording ended a few minutes later, and there had already been several peaks since the VoA ID and jingle at 1700UT (which actually wasn't as strong as these later peaks). -72dBm, the best strength on this station all morning. Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling with splash or noise): 594 JOAK 1507UT 639 CNR1 //1593 1518UT 1287 JOHR pop music 1539UT, had heard Japanese earlier on the channel, but not this strong. not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 567 JOIK //594 1522UT 603 HLSA //558 1512UT 945 CNR1 1523UT; signs of NHK1 on channel also 1098 CNR1 //756 1510UT Burbles in the splatter and noise (if lucky, language might be guessed at by cadence of talk, or parallel established by changes in talk or music) 558 HLQH //603 1512UT 585 man in Chinese? 1502 and 1512UT 621 Heilongjiang RGD man and woman singing ballad, //900 on Seoul KiwiSDR (no 900 heard at home) 1555UT 702 man and woman talking Chinese intonation 1511UT 711 man talking, Korean intonation 1502UT 756 CNR1 //945 1506UT 819 orchestral music 1536UT 846 male ballad, no ideas; 1510UT 873 JOGB music box 1541UT 918 woman talking, Chinese intonation 1536UT; strong carrier 1323 CRI? oriental sounding flute music 1547UT 1377 CNR1 //1593 1548UT 1422 man talking Chinese intonation 1532UT 1575 Iranian jammer first noted 1516UT; not as noticeable as yesterday 1575 AFN assumed Misawa? jazzy female vocal music 1522UT; at 1527UT checked Fukushima and Yokohama KiwiSDRs and both showed the same music as what I was hearing, but louder. 1593 CNR1 //639 1518UT Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter) 576 657 738 864 882 891 936 1017 1026 1107 1116 1206 1215 1242 1251 1458 1512 1557 seemed to be Asian; 1017 seemed to be DU best wishes, Nick Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, BC Canada _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
