Yesterday was a transitional morning all right; I'd say transitioning back into
the bucket, but hearing several Star outlets from New Zealand is never usual
here, so, only mildly awful. Interesting that Bruce wasn't reporting any NZ
from Grayland...
pretty darn good audio (all of it
The Japanese vanished again today, but they left behind a reasonable
selection of DU signals, so not a bad morning really.

My vote is with Nick and Colin.
A predawn band check at 1245 revealed that the Asian carriers were anemic at
best, and not worthy of further investigation at a local park. Good luck to the
guys at Grayland, though.

I'm at Grayland this weekend with Chuck & Tom. As is usually the case,
it was a much different story out here. There were lots of TP's to be
heard, with carriers on nearly all of the 9 kHz channels. About 80-90%
of the stations were from Japan including many of the low powered NHK
outlets.
Can't say that it improved much as time went on;
in fact the DU level may have declined.
Sounded like another ionospheric blanket has arrived.
best wishes,
Nick

Perhaps I should have stayed tucked in as well. A few weak carriers was all
that was heard in CO this morning.
