Definitely an Asiatic twist to this morning, a fairly brief enhancement after 1330UT, and fairly rapid decline after 1345UT; many of the good carriers were close to audio, but just too imaginary to claim... pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefl

No doubt about itthat morning was worth missing. If it wasn't that the recording started at 1200UT, there would have been no audio at all, and precious few carriers. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): all together now"not even t

Decidedly a cut above other mornings recently. Unfortunately I really haven't had much time to look at the recording, but here are some results; I'm sure there was more. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): 594 JOAK man and woman talking

Once again not enough time to do the morning justice. Lively from 1200UT onwards, peaking 1330ish, mainly low band. Some thunderous signals from NHK2 on 747 and 774 today, and lots of near audios, stragglers lasting past 1400UT pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native s

A morning that lasted quite a while...747, 774, 972 and 1287 all had weak audio at 1500UT, half an hour after local sunrise, but generally speaking, there wasn't a lot of strong action. 576 and 945 were somewhat out of the ordinary though. pretty darn good audio (all of it und

As others have noted, down from yesterday (and was generally better for the big guns before about 1315UT). Lots of carriers though, and extreme minimalist DXing dug out a couple of odd ones. Sure didn't last until 1500UT today pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by
