Asian signals generally improved this morning, with quite a few
low and middle band TP's reaching fair to good levels during the predawn
darkness. Unlike yesterday, though, the sunrise didn't seem to give much of a
boost to the high band Asians.
At my 1430 start time 1566-HLAZ was the strongest TP with fair to
good peaks, along with fair signals in and out on 594, 603 (HLSA), 657, 693, 738
(presumed BEL2), 747, 972 and 1134 (KBS). Around 1445 the low band seemed to hit
its peak, with 594-JOAK at a fair to good level, along with 972-HLCA and
1134-KBS. These three set the pace until around 1500, when increasing daylight
caused them to fizzle, along with 1566-HLAZ. 1575 and 1593 started showing up
with fair peaks on the high band, but didn't build up very much steam during
sunrise enhancement. 1566-HLAZ also came back with a few fair peaks, but without
yesterday's sharp sunrise enhancement boost. Such was the story of a pretty
diverse morning, which featured the best variety of low band signals in quite a
while (although at pretty modest levels).
