[IRCA] TP 4 Feb Victoria version

[Nick Hall-Patch]

Not a great morning, but there were some audios.   Low band Asians 
were more dominant earlier, but there was a bit of a sunrise lift 
also, and quite a lot of DU carriers, not quite making it to audio




pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, 
at least briefly):



not today



Reasonable audio  at  times during the period (much of it 
understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise):


594 JOAK man in Japanese 1304UT, didn't amount to much later
774 JOUB woman and man in Japanese 1510UT; still doing fairly well at 
1540UT with JOUB ID, NHK mention, anthem and music box


not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or 
noise could be understood by a native speaker:




612 4QR man on phone to woman in studio, DU English 1524UT
747 JOIB man talking //828 1515UT, better on north Flag; still 
noticed weakly 1541UT with chimes after anthem

828 JOBB woman and man in Japanese //774 1510UT, weak chimes 1542UT




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)


972 man and  woman talking, Korean likely, 1347UT
1116 man talking, DU English inflection 1527UT



Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or 
ravaged by splatter)


873 1323 1566 1593 seemed to be Asian;   531 567 576 621 675 792 891 
1044 1098 1503  seemed DU




best wishes,

Nick

[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 4 February 2017

[Nigel Pimblett]

DXing up in Lamont this morning, but that hasn't made reception 
much more interesting, at least not this morning.  No Asians, and 
checking the recordings the best of the DUs happened several hours 
before sunrise:


1098	V7AB	MARSHALL ISLANDS	Only a middling carrier earlier, but came up 
rapidly at 0959 for a couple of minutes with laid back vocal, then a few 
words from a woman announcer, and back into music with an upbeat dance tune.


1548	4QD	Emerald, AUSTRALIA	Traces of talk, then ABC news fanfare at 
1100.  Also noted for a couple of minutes around 1450 with talk by woman.



A number of carriers on the regular DU channels, but zero from Asia. 
1593 was very close to audio at times, and 774 wasn't bad, but the other 
carriers were pretty weak.  Even 1116 wasn't doing much.  Sunrise here 
is about 1513, but things went downhill well before that.



73,
