Yes, it was nuts; I stand by this morning's assessment.  Big signals from 
unusual stations like 711, 639 etc. Little signals from Lord knows what, but 
quite a lot of Chinese.  The north Flag was really producing today.


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

567 JOIK man in Japanese /594 1428UT

594 JOAK woman in Japanese, temperatures for various cities, Kagoshima 24 
degrees etc. 1402UT

639 CNR1 1429UT man in Chinese, pips, time check, into news

747 JOIB English lessons 1405UT

774 JOUB English lessons 1402UT

819 N. Korea female operatic singing 1418UT

828 JOBB English lessons 1416UT

945 CNR1 man in Chinese //639 1424UT

972 HLCA man in Korean,1415UT; still quite readable 1511UT

1287 JOHR two men in Japanese, North Flag better, 1410UT, same as yesterday; 
still pretty readable 1500UT

1323 CRI woman in Russian //963, best at 1430UT

1566 HLAZ woman in Chinese 1420UT; north Flag









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

603 HLSA woman in Korean //558 1406UT

666 JOBK woman in Japanese //594 1413UT

711 HLKA peaking with piano music after woman in Korean 1430UT; //864

837 Chinese female vocal 1410UT, not parallel later with 1116, so maybe not CNR5

864 HLKR man in Korean 1405UT

873 JOGB English lessons 1401UT 

963 CRI woman in Russian //123 1430UT

1098 CNR1 man talking //945 1436UT, murky but strong

1206 Yanbian piano music after man in Korean 1410UT

1575 woman in SE Asian language 1432UT;

1593 CNR1 man in Chinese //945 1418UT


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

612 JOLK man //594 1429UT

657 N. Korea man in Korean //855 1415UT

702 woman in Chinese 1411UT

738  woman in Korean 1402UT, no parallels, assume HLKG

738 Taiwan Fisheries piano music //1143 1419UT

855 N. Korea man //657 1414UT

945 unID oboe? music when CNR1 faded down 1426UT; a few notes seemed //936 
which seems unlikely

954 JOKR man in Japanese 1426UT

but954 some sort of operatic orchestral music fighting with JOKR 1427UT

981 CNR1 woman //945 1425UT

1044 CRI man in Japanese 1413UT

1116 man in Chinese 1424UT couldn't find any parallels in the recording

1188 JOKP man //594 1408UT

1368 woman in Chinese 1426UT, no idea



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) 

531 JOGB woman talking //594 1409UT

585 a mess, man talking Chinese?  was dominant 1413UT

621 operatic singing, likely N. Korea, no parallels1429UT

720 N. Korea female operatic singing //855 1425UT; woman in Chinese? there also

756 CNR1 man talking //639 1418UT

873 orchestral music u/JOGB, but nothing parallel. N. Korea? 1401UT

891 JOHK man talking 1408UT //594; didn't amount to much today

918 woman talking sounded more Japanese than Chinese 1435UT

936 brief bit of music 1412UT; a big carrier without much modulation

1017 woman talking, Korean intonation , likely CRI 1405UT

1089 man talking Chinese intonation 1417UT

1143 Taiwan Fisheries jolly piano music //738 1419UT

1224 woman singing not //594 1436UT

1251 CNR1 man in Chinese //639 1420UT

1269 mix of stations, one sounding like Chinese 1432UT

1305 man talking Chinese intonation 1412UT

1377 CNR1 woman talking //1593 1429UT

1458 man and woman talking, no idea, and couldn't guess at language 1431UT

A messy morning, plenty  of splash, erratic carriers, maybe some gold 
in the murk, but not enough time to dredge.   Seemed to be mostly low 
band Asians, with the emphasis on the big guns.




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


567 JOIK NHK1 interlude music, man saying "kombonwa" 1415UT
594 JOAK NHK1 interlude music, man saying "kombonwa" 1415UT, 
maintained this level for about 10 minutes

747 JOIB Chinese lessons 1351UT
774 JOUB English lessons 1423UT and for a few more minutes,  not a 
stellar  performer before this

972 HLCA men in Korean briefly at this level 1411UT
1053 Korean jammer 1352UT


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


702 NHK2.  A messy channel:  pop music 1352UT may have been 2BL?, but 
a real burblefest at 1414UT complete with a likely North Korean hum 
and NHK2 struggling through it.  NHK2 peaked 1423UT , English lessons.

738 Tahiti man in French 1406UT
828 JOBB English lessons 1405UT




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


558 JOCR likely, man in Japanese, sports broadcast? 1406UTlikely 
HLQH heard at other times, but 603 parallel was hard to find at the 
right moment





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)


711 man talking 1409UT, could be Korean, fighting with splash, into music.
819 woman talking, maybe Korean? 1412UT
873 JOGB Chinese lessons //747 1351UT

Thought I'd give the morning another chance, so checked the

2013-10-25 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
Point taken Chuck, Bruce did report it here a short while ago, and there is no 
argument about the parallel's existence.  But it caught me by surprise as I was 
going out the door, and I never even looked at PAL for parallels, just made 
sure it was recording.

And although CNR11 is relatively new on the channel, I'm surprised that it's 
just appearing.  It seems that conditions seem to move "further out", if only 
briefly, as we move towards November.   Something similar happened here with 
Dongfang on 603a "how come I've never heard that before", and in a few 
weeks, returning to a condition of not hearing it.  There's probably some gold 
lurking on those SDR recordings.

I was sure about the parallel because we had heard and reported it from
Grayland last weekend, with Bruce including a mention that it really sounded
like 1.2 MW. Only CNR11 would have a signal like that, BTW, this is the ex
1134 transmitter that was heard around the world.

As Nigel and Bruce say, most probably CNR11 Golmud. RTI has stopped 
using 1098 1300-1700, see

Nick,

That's a very impressive signal on 1098, and certainly nothing like I've ever 
heard on the frequency.

By way of reference, the 2013 WRTH does show Radio Taiwan International 
broadcasting on that frequency in Chinese with 300 kW to East Asia from 
1300-1700UT daily.

Wow, Nick.  That was a powerful signal, and at that late time!  Must be
China, I'm sure.  ?Tibetan service?  I'm no Asian language expert, for
sure, but the music sure matches what I hear coming out of China.  I'm
looking forward to here from a native speaker!  Did you post to the RealDX

[IRCA] TP 24 Oct, Victoria version

2013-10-24 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
Awfully glad that the TA's didn't amount to much tonight...there were 
serious recordings from this morning to go through.  Conditions were 
pretty reasonable around 1400UT, and lasted until after 1500UT for 
some stations, then things went downhill until around 1530UT when 
several stations came back for their strongest signals of the 
morning  including my big mystery on 1098, which hadn't heard of 
Murphy and faded up to 1600UT and 
beyond: 
http://www3.telus.net/public/shallpat/listen/unID1098_20131024_1600.mp3


Does that mean anything to anyone?  It sounds vaguely CC, but not 
quite, to my rather ignorant ears, and was pretty much spot on 
1098.000.  They had odd repeated chanting by a man about 15-20 
minutes earlier.  Things finally finished off about 1610UT when most 
audio disappeared.  I guess that solar burst yesterday blew away the 
D-layer, hi.




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


747 JOIB man in JJ 1533UT
774 JOUB man in JJ 1530UT, one of its strongest of the morning.
828 JOBB man in JJ, woman in unID language 1411UT
972 HLCA man and woman in KK 1557UT going into a ballad that faded 
down to barely heard pips at 1600UT

1566 HLAZ man in CC 1548UT, for its strongest signal of the morning.




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


279 R. Rossii man in RR 1343UT
603 HLSA?   quiet female vocal 1553UT
639 CNR1 man in CC 1354UT, ID'd at 1326UT with weaker signal //6030
1017 CRI soft mx then woman in KK? 1535UT; ID'd with weak chimes and 
fanfare at 1400UT
1098 unID.  oriental stringed and pipe mx at 1600UT leading up to 
woman talking over the mx, sounding somewhat CC; strongest 9kHz 
channel on band at this time.

1287 JOHR man and woman in JJ 1538UT, its best signal of the morning
1323 CRI likely, man in RR 1530UT, best of the morning



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

567 JOIK woman in JJ 1333UT //594
594 JOAK man in JJ 1323UT; never caught this any better than this low level
693 JOAB slipped through the splash 1533UT //747 man in JJ
702 N. Korea?   portentous instrumental mx not //774, and with a hum, 
1340UT, so guessing this.  Also, a moment later 657 faded up with 
similar mx, as this faded down, though they aren't listed as // at 
this time in PAL.

738 Tahiti likely, man in FF 1332UT
819 N. Korea choral mx 1607UT, sounded //6400 which was quite 
butchered by noise and interference; had heard N. Korean pips more 
weakly at 1600UT
945 CNR1 man in CC //6030 1437UT then gone again; weaker level 
1549UT, with two signals fighting

954 JOKR? man in rapid JJ 1543UT
1098 unID.  man and woman in CC 1407UT; don't know if this was same 
as my unID from 1600UT




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) :


189 R. Rossii woman talking //279 1435UT
621 unID echoey CC sounding talk by man 1544UT
648 VoR Great Gates of Kiev chimes at 1400UT
657 N. Korea??  instrumental mx 1342UT
711 HLKA?? soft mx, woman talking through splash KK?  1427UT
756 CNR1, men talking //6030 1545UT, yet at 1600UT faint 2 and 1 pips.  Korea?
864 unID man and woman talking maybe KK? 1345UT
918 unID woman talking, sounded CC inflection, 1410UT, but at 1500UT, 
was NHK style pips??

936 Anhui? woman talking CC inflection and slow mx 1439UT
981 CNR1 woman in CC //6030 1457UT, struggling with 980 splash
1026 ? wild talk by 2 men at 1553UT, CC inflection; a mystery.
1206 Yanbian? man talking, could be KK 1342UT


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


891 1575 (surely I missed these in audio?)

1008 1035 1044 1134 1242 1503


best wishes,

Nick
