Although quite a lively morning, it lacked that Chinese attack of yesterday. The big guns were quite big not long after 1400UT as Gary mentioned, though I'm not sure I would consider Victoria the place to hear them best, hi. And although a number of carriers hung around for awhile after sunrise, it wasn't anything like the audio-fest of yesterday pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): 594 JOAK man and woman in Japanese 1420UT 693 JOAB English lessons 1407UT, beating the 693 splash into submission 747 JOIB English lessons 1407UT 774 JOUB English lessons 1412UT 828 JOBB English lessons 1408UT 972 HLCA man in Korean 1415UT 1575 VoA man in SE Asian language, woman on phone 1419UT; had faded considerably by Yankee Doodle at 1430UT Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise): 558 HLQB woman in Korean //603 1410UT 567 JOIK man and woman talking //594 1420UT, but soon faded to Korea 603 HLSA woman in Korean //558 1410UT 639 CNR1 man in Chinese //1098 1424UT 873 JOGB English lessons 1408UT 945 CNR1 man in Chinese //639 1425UT someone else there also 1017 CRI likely with woman in Korean 1415UT; like many signals this morning, this was better on north Flag 1143 Taiwan Fisheries woman in Chinese 1426UT, ID'd earlier //738 1287 JOHR man in Japanese, another on phone, 1417UT 1566 HLAZ man in Chinese 1415UT not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 738 Taiwan Fisheries, woman in Chinese //1143 1408UT 891 JOHK man in Japanese //594 1409UT 963 CRI woman in Russian 1414UT 1242 JOLF woman in Japanese 1409UT 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 JOQG woman talking //594 1408UT, at least one other signal there also 567 HLKF soft music //711 1422UT, coming up in a fade from JOIK 603 woman talking, sounded like Chinese 1408UT 657 operatic singing by woman 1414UT, not really //819, but similar sound 702 NHK2 English lessons //774 1408UT 711 HLKA soft music //567 1422UT 729 JOCK woman talking //594 briefly easing past the 730 splatter 819 operatic singing by woman 1414UT; N.

This morning didn't have the spirit of yesterday's session, with just the grand old regulars showing much life, so I've not spent a lot of time analyzing it.
