After Colin's amazing report, I was wondering what was wrong with my antenna.
For some reason, splash was fairly bad on the west Flag which is what I was
using before I got out of bed, so most of what he was reporting simply wasn't
making it here.
However, once I'd switched over to the
Recovery is occurringincluding one Asian, surprising as that may seem.
pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker,
at least briefly):
recovery perhaps, but the DX is not leaping out of bed shouting at
the top of its lungs...
Reasonable audio at times
An interesting morning, firmly back in the Asiatic camp. 1230 to
1300UT were fairly lively on the low band, then some doldrums through
to 1400UT, and a final dustup 1430 to past 1500UT
pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker,

Seemed to be a lighter weight morning here today, 1300 to 1330
UT. Lots of carriers, not much audio; at one point only 873 had NHK2 audio.

Greetings,
This morning started out poor poor poor at 1330, but by 1400, it had
picked up a bit. Still nothing much. Anhui 936 was making a showing. By
1415 or so I was on 531 trying to make out the two Australians. I
fiqured one was 2 PM (CW). The second was a interview/talk program. But
first
Well somewhat less spectacular for me than for Mr. Bryant, but fun
nonetheless. It's odd to hear the NHK2 big guns sounding wispy, but
I rarely get anything to replace them
I believe there was a lift just after 1400UT... 936 jumped from
weak carrier to fair audio in a matter of minutes
Nigel,
Glad you nabbed KICY. That is a great catch too. Yes, I am happy with 4
K Z. I think they are probably still operating ND with a kw or 2. They
were too strong to have their directional pattern in tow. But I did get
a report out to them today.
