Not an impressive morning. In fact, I gave up just after 1600UT, as there seemed to be so little going on, but the recording yielded a couple of audios later. And earlier, a few weak DUs. NHK2 signed off at 1440UT today, so any strong carriers after that time were wasted. JOUB's s/off ID

A very puzzling sounding morning with quite a number of Aussies, yet a couple of mystery Chinese as well. The activity was all in the lower part of the band also. Pretty much as different from yesterday as it could be. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native

Yes, it was pretty hot on the band today, but briefer than what Bruce heard, with the peak between about 1530 and about 1543UT, and quickly downhill from there. 1535UT was quite a wild moment... Also heard were a couple of low band NHK1 to round things out. pretty darn good audio (all of

Walt already evaluated the morning. Here are the details. It was still generally quite Japanese and lower band, with a great many weak audios, but they WERE audio...many of which I hadn't heard for quite awhile. I probably could have heard more, as they were popping up and down, but
