at 0045, there's quite a few TA carriers here in Victoria, mostly weak but
audible with the BFO on, maybe about half the channels. Best ones so far are
864, 1134, 1215, 1269, and 1422.
and I'm going out this evening, hi.

594 JOAK poor.
666 JOBK just above the noise level.

I'd concur with Colin, an uninspiring morning. In fact, when I first

uprated.
I also noted the Japanese big guns to be well down from yesterday.

Thanks for the tip. My presumed (Mandarin Chinese) CNR1 reception was on
1134 kHz, not 1215 kHz. 1215 is a pretty dead frequency here, with a local
