I heard about what Walt did today and gotta call it low average/lackluster or
similar. What action there was fell below 1100, save for 5 of the regulars up
top. There was a bit of interest, though, during the very pronounced burst
right at dawn:
666: Had Mayak RR//576 loud briefly before it fell back into a fur ball with
the JJ and a CC thrown in. It was a real UN meeting for a while. The Mayak is
listed at Komsomolsk near the Amur River and a somewhat rare visitor here.
675: V of Vietnam was doing well in the middle part of the morning but was
fighting with a Chinese at dawn.
783: I rarely hear audio here but I've had Hebei Province, China here in the
past. This morning it was Korean, I'm almost certain and there is a 10 kW KBS1
listed here.
864: Had the OC here again, though somewhat diminished this AM.
Walt, did I understand you to say that the Koreans seemed diminished this year
to you??? I feel the opposite. I seem to have Koreans all over the dial...
little beyond KBS in South Korea, but a slew of those and more North Koreans
around than I've ever noticed before. For me, there are two black clouds...
one sitting on top of most everything above 1100 on the dial and the other
perched squarely over Japan. Did I misunderstand what you meant about the
Koreans being down???
That's about it from here on a stunningly beautiful Sunday morning (the kind
that we don't tell the tourists about.)
Oh man, and likewise in Victoria across the water. We are SOO lucky to live in
such paradise! Road my bike downtown to enjoy the harbour and sites, and now
I'm off to work in the clinic. Anyway, yes, the North Koreans are there, and
plenty of them, but not with quite the punch I experienced last year it would
seem. There are some exceptions, like 1170 and 603, however. I'm with you,
though, of your assessment of this morning! Walt
