A messy morning, couple of Aussies, mostly bigger gun Asians, and some Zedders (Star was a star), not a lot that was consistently strong. Likely a lot of channels might have yielded further loggings if one sat down and listened to each one as the erratic fading delivered something new. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): 594 JOAK woman in Japanese 1405UT 612 4QR teletalk 1358UT //702 774 JOUB Chinese lessons 1341UT and other times. 1411UT had English lessons with a fine humorous vignette on blowfish soup, missed the denoument when it faded below assumed 3LO, so don't know if anyone got sick or died.

Indeed, a poor morning, with some propagation oddities, mostly before 1300UT. And yes, there was a bit of a boost around 1400UT, mostly affecting the big guns. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): 828 JOBB English lessons 1402UT. This seemed to be the most common NHK2 station this morning Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise): 594 JOAK peaking with man in Japanese 1401UT 693 JOAB English lessons wrestling with CBU-690 splash and sometimes winning 1245UT. The only NHK2 station audible at this time. 774 JOUB Chinese lessons 1349UT not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 864 laid back instrumental music 1250UT; sounded like 2 short and one long higher pip on hour.
