As mentioned, there was quite a confusing opening starting at 1520UT. Signals would fade up quickly to barely audible and then disappear again.

An interesting morning, mostly concentrated between 1505 and 1515UT, with the lower part of the band and NHK1 shining, just a bit. No s/off on NHK2 at 1540UT, still weak chat on 747, 774 and even snippets on 828 at 1544UT. The real kicker was 747 fading up with a woman talking slowly at 1635UT, but no idea who this was, as no possible // on 774 at the time. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): close... reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise): 567 JOIK man in JJ //594 at 1501UT 594 JOAK as above, but //567! 774 JOUB man in JJ fading up briefly in JJ //747 1503UT 1566 HLAZ man in CC 1522UT, most others gone by now, though weak 747//774 held in for awhile longer. in fact, much longer, (see introduction) not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 558 HLQH slow vocal mx at 1504UT //603, moments later woman talking faded up underneath, JJ cadence, so possibly JOCR 747 JOIB pan pipe mx leading to pips on hour 1500UT. Only the regulars audible before 1500UT, but soon got more interesting. 1287 JOHR two men in JJ at 1510UT Burbles in the splatter and noise (if lucky, language might be guessed at by cadence of talk, or parallel established by changes in talk or music) : 531 JOQG man in JJ faded up briefly 1502UT //594.
