[IRCA] S. AZ TPs Sept 20--mostly poor

[Steve Ratzlaff <ratzlaffsteve@xxxxxxxxx>]

Generally poor conditions today with all signals having rapid several 
second fading, making it harder to tell when a signal had faded up to 
audio. The mid/high band seemed to be favored. As usual, a couple with 
audio. Most interesting was he mysery saion on 1566 faded up and totally 
dominated over HLAZ (which had a man preaching) for several minutes. 
Some type of woman's program with female announcer playing soft slow 
ballad-type femaile vocal music. I will see if I can make an .mp3 of 
this and maybe someone can listen and identify the language.

594 Japan very poor 1315 utc in IBOC hiss

774 Japan very poor/poor 1224 utc

828 Japan very poor 1239 utc

1098 het rose to medium level 1256 utc

1314 presumed-Japan very poor 1259 utc (gone at 1300 TOH)

1566 S Korea initially very poor/poor 1244-1302 utc, with man preaching; 
then "mystery station" faded up with classical organ music intro, female 
announcer, female vocal songs in slow ballad style to 1314 utc, then 
HLAZ faded up mixing 1314 utc. lasting to 1329 utc. HLAZ-only traces 
after that for a short time, fading away. One vocal song was familiar to 
me, I think it was Jean Sibelius' "Findlandia" which has had words added 
to the classical tune. This was a female vocal solo with classical 
guitar accompaniment. Levels reached 'poor" for this mystery station at 
times.
