[IRCA] TP 3 Dec Victoria version.

[Nick Hall-Patch]

Conditions decayed again; Alberta and Victoria were on the same page, but at 
least China was still a little audible, and maybe Vietnam.




pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least 
briefly):

594 JOAK 1545UT

774 JOUB 1519UT



Reasonable audio at  times during the period (much of it understandable by a 
native speaker, though often battling with splash or noise):

693 JOAB 1533UT

972 HLCA  1528UT



not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could 
be understood by a native speaker: 
567 JOIK //594 1517UT

603 HLSA 1525UT  usual quiet music; ID'd for sure with //558 at 1530UT

747 JOIB 1526UT

819 N. Korea likely; female operatic singing 1540UT

945 CNR1 1534UT;   //1098 at 1544UT, but weaker then


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 HLQH //603 1530UT

657 female operatic singing 1518UT; assumed N.Korea

666 JOBK //594 1532UT

675 woman talking, small bell introducing female vocal 1529UT; was at 
674.997kHz, so likely Vietnam?

702 NHK2 //828 1517UT

738 woman talking, Chinese intonation 1518UT; at least one other on channel

864 man talking, Korean? 1547UT

918 woman talking, Chinese intonation 1540UT

1098 CNR1 man and woman talking //945 1544UT; pretty weak, but scrambling for 
DX, any DX at this point

1575 woman talking, could have been SE Asian language. 1515UT



Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or ravaged 
by splatter)

 837 846  954  1089 1206   1242 1251  1323  1566 seemed to be Asian; 
612  seemed  to be DU

[IRCA] TP 3 Dec Victoria version

[Nick Hall-Patch]

A considerable improvement this morning, mostly the big guns acting 
fairly big, but that's quite an improvement.


pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, 
at least briefly):


594  JOAK man in Japanese 1512UT
774 JOUB as early as 1346UT, English lessons: "umbrellas available at 
many of the vending machines across the Kanto area".  Many other 
times up to about 1530UT, at this level.





Reasonable audio  at  times during the period (much of it 
understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise):


693 JOAB man in Japanese //774 1453UT, once CBU splatter took a break.
828 JOBB man in Japanese //747 1503UT




not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or 
noise could be understood by a native speaker:


747 JOIB man in Japanese //774 1500UT, no pips on hour?
972 assumed HLCA; pop vocals  1543UT
1566  HLAZ; woman in Chinese after female vocals 1536UT; still 
hanging around 1617UT after others all gone



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)


567 JOIK man talking //594; 1502UT
603 soft music, man talking over top; Korean intonation  1512UT




Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or 
ravaged by splatter)


873 891 1143 1251 1278 1287 1323  1422 1458 1593 seemed to be Asian;
nothing  seemed to be DU

[IRCA] TP 3 Dec Victoria version

[Nick Hall-Patch]

A different morning again.   The Chinese didn't really appear, 
especially later, though some action from China after 1300UT.   More 
Japanese inclined conditions overall, as early as 1100UT, plus HLAZ 
didn't stop delivering its final audio until 1827UT.






pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, 
at least briefly):


594 JOAK Japanese man in Japanese 1505UT
774 JOUB man in Japanese 1508UT
828 JOBB briefly at this level //774 1509UT
972 HLCA woman in Korean 1459UT, then pips, dominating 970 if both 
included in an AM passband






Reasonable audio  at  times during the period (much of it 
understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise):



567JOIK woman in Japanese //594 1514UT
747 JOIB man in Japanese 1508UT
873 JOGB man in Japanese //774 1506UT, woman talking underneath (N. Korea?)
1053 Korean jammer 1400UT
1566 HLAZ man in Chinese 1521UT, only briefly fair during sunrise 
enhancement, but wouldn't quit, just kept fading up, with one 
particularly good one at 1734UT woman in Korean over piano music, 
equal to earlier peak levels.  Last audio, "O Come All Ye Faithful" 
carol 1827UT




not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or 
noise could be understood by a native speaker:




702 NHK2 woman in Japanese //774 1509UT
837 man in Chinese 1348UT, then another man shouting, 
sports?   CNR5?? no parallels available though 1116 may have had a 
hint of shouting on it.  Next time.

945 CNR1 man in Chinese //6125 1513UT
963 CRI man in Russian 1311UT
1134 JOQR briefly w/womn in Japanese 1502UT
1206 Yanbian man in Korean 1315UT
1287 JOHR man in Japanese to another man on phone 1520UT




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)



603 soft music, man talking slowly 1518UT
666 JOBK Japanese man //594 1501UT
693 JOAB man in Japanese //774 1516UT, sneaking past murderous 690 splash
918 no pips at 1400UT, news sounder,  woman talking, Chinese inflection?
954 man and woman talking Japanese inflection 1520UT
981 woman talking insistently, Chinese? 1305UT
1044 CRI faint traces of fanfare in the murk 1400UT
1143 woman talking Chinese inflection 1502UT
1242 man and woman talking Japanese inflection 1529UT
1422 woman talking Japanese inflection 1521UT



Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or 
ravaged by splatter) lots of near audio here

All barely there if that qualifies - and at the same time, the FB shows the 
exact same thing... 

Most days I feel that chopping down the trees that hold the antennas would 
improve the reception. When I put up the Flag antenna, I thought I could hear 
anything at anytime. Now I hear largely nothing all of the time despite Geo 
reports. Hearing carriers now is a treat.

Not really much of anything, no enhancements, no sudden outbursts or tantrums..
Interesting that Colin was hearing things around 1500UT, brief 
whispers from 774 was the best I could do then.




pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, 
at least briefly):


today? no.



Reasonable audio  at  times during the period (much of it 
understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise):


738 Tahiti man in French, interspersed with instrumental music 1433UT




not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or 
noise could be understood by a native speaker:


the above passing through




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)


774 man and woman talking, maybe Japanese inflection 1443UT
1386 a few seconds of bassy music 1519UT
1566 man talking, Japanese inflection 1330UT




Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or 
ravaged by splatter)


702 891 1116

It was a morning made for SDRs.  The first hour or so of listening 
was accounted for with 3 minutes of scanning; things were a little 
more interesting after 1508UT, when HLAZ started to fade up, and a 
little bit of a buzz happened on the upper band.



pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, 
at least briefly):


not quite; HLAZ was pretty readable at times.



Reasonable audio  at  times during the period (much of it 
understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise):


1566 HLAZ  woman in CC 1514UT


not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or 
noise could be understood by a native speaker:



747 JOIB woman talking //774 1538UT. NHK mention, then s/off anthem 
and chimes 1540UT
774 JOUB woman in JJ //747 1538UT; s/off reasonably audible, though 
missed call ID.

1575 VoA woman SE Asian language 1523UT



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)


1386 NHK2 woman in JJ 1527UT //774
1557 female vocal mx 1512UT, only heard briefly.


Strongish het, no or near imaginary audio (either undermodulated or 
ravaged by splatter)


1098 1314 1404 1422 1476 1494 1512pretty eclectic mix.

Believe it or not, there was a touch of audio on the recordings, but 
there was no sunrise enhancement today.  With a stiff wind blowing, 
it was easy to believe that the antennas were in a heap on the 
ground, except domestics were as loud as ever.




pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, 
at least briefly):


738 Tahiti female vocal mx 1415UT, and into man in FF as level 
dropped slightly, hung in for the better part of 10 minutes.  Got to 
take your enhancement where you can find it





Reasonable audio  at  times during the period (much of it 
understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise):


738 passing through


not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or 
noise could be understood by a native speaker:


738 passing through


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) :


774 man talking JJ inflection 1355UT
972 woman talking, then mx like a string quartet, then talk again 1351UT


Strongish het, no or near imaginaryaudio (either undermodulated or 
ravaged by splatter):


828 1566...that's it...

My SDR recordings weren't much different from what Nick reported.  Today 
I had fragmentary audio on 774 and 1566 at around 1300.  Also traces of 
real or imaginary audio on 747 and 972.  I wondered for a while if I had 
my antenna switch in the wrong position, but everything was set up 
correctly.  It was just a bummer of  a morning for TPs.
