Here in Alberta, it was apparently a bit different than on the
coast, as it wasn't nearly so TP-oriented. The regular Japanese TPs
showed up first, around 1230, but only hung in for 20 minutes or so,
before being replaced by Australian signal. In general, the signals
were a bit more distributed across the band, but the low end still
seemed a bit better. Both 567 and 585 were very close to audio, but
couldn't quite make the list below of those that did:
576 - ABC National, Syndey, only identifiable by the time pips and ABC
news theme at 1300
612 - weak audio at 1303 presumed to be ABC Brisbane, with English talk
by a man.
693 - JOAB, Not very good this morning, but discernable as Japanese at 1247.
747 - JOIB, Japan, along with 774, reaching audio by 1230.
774 - JOUB, Japan first reaching audio at 1230, gone by 1250.
774 - ABC Melbourne, with talk by man at 1307
792 - ABC Brisbane reached audio at 1304, with talk
819 - ABC, Glen Innes, came up with talk by a man through 820 splatter.
891 - ABC Adelaide, with fair signal at 1259, and for the next 10-15
minutes.
990 - KIKI, first Hawaiian of the season today, with ID at 1300. Not
very strong, but alone on the channel.
1575 - Just traces of audio from presumed VOA at 1245
1575 - Rete Italia, Australia?? Talk by man and woman, definitely not an
Asian language, cadence was right for Italian, but too weak to identify
with certainty.
