Yesterday was another total dud, but today brought a return to
some audio, although all from DU in my case:
594 3WV Horsham, AUSTRALIA Weak, with bits of talk at 1518
612 4QR Brisbane, AUSTRALIA ABC news at 1503
792 4RN Brisbane, AUSTRALIA Talk about New
a return, at last, to a small semblance of TPs. High point today was Taiwan on
1557 complete with an ID. There was also a small Aussie opening around 1540UT
pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least
briefly):
594 JOAK 1547UT
612 4QR ABC news app

Folks,
Just so you know, I sent the station a "contact" via their web site. I received
a phone call very quickly and explained the problem. It was fixed by the next
day when I was able to log the call letters for the IRCA contest.
