[IRCA] Kona TP for 12 Jan 2012 Not so much
Bit of noise this AM -- around 1500 UTC - and apart from the regular Island sounds on 540, 738, 1017 and 1098 - not much to speak of - lots of hets and hints of audio on many splits - but apart from 1548 with great audio and pop music (assuming Emerald, Queensland...) Normally, I would be hearing one top tier JJ station after another after 0700UTC - so far after 10 attempts or so, nothing. Even with a manageable noise level, this is the worse Hawaii conditions I have seen - even HF down here is a wash-out. Have been lucky to hear one or two signals on 20 and 15 meters... much, much more in years passed. Lots more time for it to improve!

[IRCA] Unusually good skip on Thursday 01- 12 -12 after 0 hour (delayed report)
Almost every frequency I tuned to early this morning had multiple signals including the normal western clears. A couple of particulars were 640 with usual KFI LA with under and sometimes over from an SS musica signal. Has another 640 switched formats to SS? 730 Van BC with faint talker under and possibly KBSU in Boise Id. 980 Van BC with competition from an under but sometimes matching signal from an as yet unIDer. The usual stations that are fair to good were above average and much louder. Wednesday PM at 1600 PST also saw good signals as pre LSS skips in what I see as a terminater skip zone in which certain stations( that don\t power down) in the dark edge of the terminator throw a better than night time signal into the still light edge of the terminator. Let me know if I'm making sense here. Today at 16:00 some noise prevented me from catching similar conditions.

Re: [IRCA] TP for 12 Jan 2012 from Victoria: good reception!
My SDR recording these mornings grabs samples at 0800, 0900, 1000 and 1500 UT. This morning, the earlier ones were very poor, but the 1500UT recording was fairly lively, especially at the top of the band, where 1566 audio was fairly good, weak NHK pips on 1593 (not the usual CNR1), and weak audio on 1134, might have been Korean. But I also try to grab sunrise enhancement from 1530UT onwards (local sunrise is about 1600UT just now), and this morning, there really wasn't any enhancement. Audio levels had faded from 1500UT. A quick listen at around 1520UT (with no recording), seemed better than 1500UT levels, but unfortunately there was no time to listen just then, and no recording being done. So, likely an early pre-sunrise peak this morning. best wishes, Nick At 15:19 12-01-12, you wrote: Having a quick listen this morning (no time for any details), but quite good reception from the bottom to the top of the band of all the usual first tier stations from Japan, especially.
