Just to provide a little more evidence of the awesome Kona propagation, here is the full sign off routine of 621-Tuvalu starting at 0957 UTC and ending up at 1002. This includes the usual female announcer, choral music and presumed national anthem-- most of which is at S9 + 80dB. After the 1002 programming sign off there is apparently an open carrier still on the frequency, judging by the continuing 1 kHz heterodyne with the domestics on 620.
