A mostly Asian morning, without the marked sunrise boost of yesterday, though having said that, some of the the big guns maxed out around 1400UT.
pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): 594 JOAK man in Japanese 1401UT 693 JOAB English lessons about SpaceX during dead air on CBU 1353UT 747 JOIB English lessons 1337UT 774 JOUB English lessons //693 1311UT 828 JOBB English lessons 1314UT 972 HLCA woman in Korean, pop music 1401UT 1566 HLAZ man in Chinese 1400UT, followed by orchestral music Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise): 873 JOGB English lessons 1321UT 891 JOHK woman and man talking //594 1325UT not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 603 HLSA assumed. Usual slow instrumental music 1324UT, not //558 at this time, which sounded more Japanese 954 JOKR assumed with fast talking Japanese woman and man, commercial 1356UT; brutal 950- splash today though 1143 woman talking to man on phone, sounding vaguely Tagalog 1322-3UT. I suspect this is Taiwan Fisheries, as I heard this type of language a few days ago, and it matched the Fisheries webstream at the time. Unfortunately the Fisheries web audio archive has some certificate problem, and neither my browser or anti-virus were very happy about that, so I left it be. 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) 558 woman talking very quickly, maybe Japanese? 1325UT. Definitely not //603. 567 JOIK man and woman talking amid general hilarity //594 1319UT 612 woman talking, DU English intonation 819 orchestral music 1316UT; N. Korea? 864 JOHE? Although at poor strength, woman was reading slow call letters, sounding like JOHE, before 2 and 1 pips at 1400UT. JOHE however is part of the HBC group and I don't think I've heard them using call letters, plus it's only 3 kw from an interior town on Hokkaido. If this is it, then pretty nice DX. 1053 woman talking, Japanese intonation 1325UT 1116 woman talking, DU English intonation 1405UT 1134 woman talking, Japanese intonation 1325UT 1593 CNR1 woman talking //6125 1358UT Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter) 621 657 666 711 837 918 936 945 1035 1179 1206 1242 1251 1278 1287 1314 1323 1422 1458 1575 seemed to be Asian; 576 702 738 837 846 855 909 1017 1611 seemed to be DU best wishes, Nick Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, BC Canada _______________________________________________ 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
