Gee, it was like mid-October. Virtually all of the usual suspects were there, and the upper band was more active hat I've seen it inna couple of weeks. 43 in audio, overall. Most of the usual JJs, KKs and even CCs. 567, NHK1, Sapporo is usually only threshold audio on good mornings. It was the strongest of the season. 612 remained at just below language recognition and I really couldn't tell, but it seemed EE/DU. There was also that same level on 1098, presumed Taiwan.... most likely the best of the season for that one. 1134 showed well, as did 1206, both of which are usually blotted out here by adjacent Vancouver stations. 1251 showed the first decent audio in many days, though it was only threshold. and 1377, CNR1 and 1503 Japan were doing excellently.... an unusual event this late in the season. Finally, 1593 was in some form of Chinese, not parallel to CNR, so it was almost certainly unneeded Heilongjiang.... first time in decent audio in a long while.
Very nice way to start the day!
