I think I was more in Gary's camp than Bruce's this morning. The thought of hearing CRI-1044, however poorly, with the present geomagnetic conditions seems unlikely...but it happened. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): HLAZ came close

My results again lined up with Seattle - lousy. Had poor audio on 1566 HLAZ at 1320, and no other audio. Might have found a syllable or two from other regulars if I'd felt inspired to pore over my recording, but I wasn't. 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, AB Perseus SDR & Wellbrook Phased

It was a pretty bizarre morning where the low band was fairly subdued, but 1044-CRI was strong enough at 1350 to manage weak audio on the handheld FSL-PL-380. Besides a temporarily fair signal from 1593-CNR1 around 1335 and 1566-HLAZ's usual strong run during its Japanese service it was mostly

The low band wasn't quite as poor as Bruce found, though it is true that the NHK2 big guns were better around 1200UT. And yes, there was a pip heard on 1467 at 1400UT here, but nothing else to hang one's hat on. Generally, there wasn't anything that was consistently strong, but JOJK-1224
