<<< Interested enough that I would have looked up from my pillow for around 2 seconds >>> Truth be told, Colin, I don't really get all that excited about big gun NHK audio, either. But following daily propagation changes can be a way to maintain hobby interest during a lean solar year (a concept that I have learned from one of your fellow Victoria residents, who routinely reports weak carriers on 774 and 1566 throughout the dog days of summer). In addition, some inland Ultralight radio DXers and Midwest Perseus-SDR DXers would be thrilled to receive the same NHK big guns that we take for granted. They may like to know what's going on.

Going to have a lap top up in the bedroom for morning peeks to check for worthiness. Hearing the NHK 1's at 10db over S9 is not longer a thrill. Looking for Tier 2, 3 and inland catches at this point.
