So far I've managed to definitely ID one NZer from yesterday: Newstalk ZB on 1296 (a bit of a surprise). There are probably a few others. I'm pretty sure 1503 was in as well, albeit briefly.

A mix again of big gun Asia and Australia, with the band above about 1200kHz almost completely dead save for a burst from 1242.

Hi Nick, It's great to have you back in the daily TP chase. You really haven't missed very much-- except for September 23rd and October 11th (Saturday), the season has been pretty underwhelming. I hope that things will pick up before you guys head for Grayland this weekend.

As others have already noted, the mid-October anomaly this morning.I did spend a little time with the recording, and found a couple of things that weren't obvious at first glance, but they were brief signals above the crud. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): expecting a bit much. Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise): 774 JOUB man in JJ 1410UT, someone underneath also 972 HLCA sing along time in the studio, just for me, choral accompaniment with recorded music 1340UT, then man in KK; other times at lesser level not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 1575 likely VoA; SE Asian language by woman; mess of at least two smeared carriers on channel, and someone else about 43Hz low. 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) : 594 JOAK woman talking JJ inflection? 1415UT and other times 693 JOAB man talking 1352UT //774 738 Taiwan Fisheries laid back vocal pop mx, 1349UT ; pretty sure it matched the cached audio on the station's website 828 JOBB man in JJ //774 1410UT Strongish het, no or "near imaginary"audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter): 747 846 1188 1242 1287 1314 1323 1422 1503 1566 best wishes, Nick ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
