[IRCA] TP 18 Feb Victoria version.

2019-02-18 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
A step back (again) this morning; not nearly so much happening on the upper 
band near sunrise.


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

not so




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


gone again



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

594 JOAK erratic fading, many times at this level, maybe more, but often in the 
bucket; mostly Japanese talk 1507-1520UT

747 JOIB 1518UT; sticking around later today




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) 

567 JOIK //594 1506UT

693 JOAB 1518UT

774 JOUB 1511UT

1422 man mumbling, perhaps Japanese 1520UT

1503 JOUK man and woman //594 1520UT

1557 woman talking, Chinese intonation.1521UT

1566 man in apparent Chinese 1521UT,



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

 603 621 639 702 756 828 1287 1377 1494  seemed to be Asian; 
 675 756 1017 1548 seemed to be DU  


best wishes,

Nick

KCRN is coming in even louder today in Castle Rock, CO, they may have hit the 
50 kW level that Paul mentioned.
