[IRCA] TP DX in Seattle on Sept 21

[Bruce Portzer <bportzer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Today's TP DX session was probably my best so far this season. There 
were lots of Korean and Japanese signals to be heard, but very little 
from China.  VOA-1575 was sub-par as well.  Most of the action was at 
the lower half of the band,  although 1566 did quite well at times.


GOOD
774    JOUB, 1314 talk & music //747.  Also good 1330 with program 
transition
972    HLCA, lively discussion by men & women in Korean 1332, then 
partial pop song with the group making comments, including much laughter 
and giggling.  Quite loud by 1335 by which time it was playing music
1053    Korean jammer 1347
1566    HLAZ, quite good at times 1235-1345+ in Japanese, sounded mostly 
like a church service

FAIR
747    JOIB, Japanese talk 1314, then brief music & more talk
828    JOBB, talk & mx 1314 //747/774
1287    JOHR, man in Japanese, then music 1317

POOR

594    traces of talk 1320
657    DPRK, emphatic talk 1303
693    JOAB, Japanese talk 1310
819    DPRK, woman talking (ID?), then pips & emphatic talk 1300
864    tone at ToH (possibly from time pips) 1300, bits of talk noted 
later, peaking 1330 with what sounded like Japanese woman
873    DPRK??, male talk 1315, not //NHK2.  Inflections consistent with 
N Korea stations
981    Music 1337, probably CNR1
1134    Deep voiced man 1333, not sure if JJ or KK
1170    KBS, partial pips 1300 during pause in KPUG audio
1206    talk 1316-19 Korean-like inflections so presumed Yanbian, two 
carriers: 1205.95 (the strongest) & 1206.00
1242   weak female talk 1331, possibly mixing with a second station
1323    weak music 1332
1476    Male talk, CC-like inflections 1330, 2 carriers: 
1476(Strongest), 1476.25 with a buzz between them
