Not a bad morning..Stil no Filipinos I could find...But lots of JJ/KK/CC in and one interesting frequency, 693 khz....At around 1420, I could hear Indian type film music way under JOAB. It was there until after 1430, but before 1430, there was a pause in the music and a low pitched man said something in an unid language. Very likely this was Bangladesh running 1000 KW. I have not heard Bangladesh since 1994 when I logged & QSL'd 558. Gee, I hope for a return to those days! I tried for India on 864 and Nepal 792, but no luck there as yet. I did find something unid way behind the jumble on 1134 at 1440 with JJ/KK, that may be Calcutta. I never logged that one ether. 864 & 1566 are the only Indians heard here. I only QSL'd 864. I will keep checking 693. This is interesting to say least! With 1000 KW, it should be possible, as it is not all that far from Thailand to Bangladesh and both run 1000 KW. However, the propagation did not match the type I had in 93/94. That propagation started out like FM skip, as early on it was good in Northern Asia, then moved down to the Philippines,across Southern Asia and then brought in Central Asians. Very odd conditions for MW, a bit of "bending". In all of my years at the dials I have never heard that again. But I sure would love a repeat of it!
