Quite a number of interesting carriers (918 for example) earlier this evening here in unexpectedly snowy Victoria , but the only audio heard with on and off monitoring has been tastes of music and woman talking on 963 just after 0500UT. By 0515UT, the Asiatic Russian on 234 was making itself

Hi Nick and Nigel, A weak carrier is also here on 1377 kHz (on just the modified ICF-2010, no loops) but 1215 kHz shows nothing. 1377 produced weak French here on occasion, last season (on the 9' PVC box loop), but 1215 has always been a non-performer at this location. 73, Gary In a

Nothing really strong, but pretty interesting, as several have weak audio at 0250UT. 1215 and 1134 of course, but 819 sounded vaguely Arabic (man chanting, then stringed music? no // on 12050 from here), and 864 may have had a FF inflection to the man's voice, but really too weak to tell.
