Here also, in Victoria, conditions looked much better before about
1400UT, though it was primarily strong signals on the big guns,
rather than Chinese.
There seem to be a at least a couple of modes of propagation from
East Asia, an overnight gradual increase, then drop off in signal
strength as dawn approaches, and then a second boost near
sunrise. Sometimes, they run together, sometimes one is there and
not the other, and sometimes neither. The sunrise boost is when
more interesting DX happens usually, but, as always, anything is possible...
Unfortunately, this morning, sunrise boost just wasn't there.
best wishes,
Nick

They decent TP conditions of yesterday did not extend into the first
morning of December.Only the Japanese powerhouses and HLAZ made
it from Asia during the 1400-1500 listening time, joined by a few
Aussies. 4BC would have deep fades, but on peaks it was by far the
strongest overseas signal this morning. Interestingly I had
inadvertently done a ToH recording at 1100 and the Japanese signals
were much stronger then. Perhaps a solar hiccup sometime between
1100 and 1400?
