The high band featured some fair signals from several Asian
regulars this morning, but without much of a sunrise enhancement boost. The low
band never seemed to get untracked, and overall the session wasn't very
inspiring.
At my 1430 start time only 1566-HLAZ was in audio, with fair
peaks in and out. The low band had trouble managing any healthy carriers at all
during the predawn darkness, although around 1445 some fair Japanese started
showing up on 1503 (presumed JOUK), along with anemic Chinese from 1566-HLAZ and
1593-CNR1. 1575-VOA also had some fair peaks in and out with Asiatic language
speech just after 1500, when the high band seemed to hit a modest peak. 972-HLAZ
was the only middle band Asian to show up with audio (poor) around 1450, but it
fizzled pretty quickly. Lack of any significant sunrise enhancement boost sent
the die-hard Asians on 1503, 1566, 1575 and 1593 into the noise prematurely
around 1515 here, ending a fairly lackluster session.
