grey line dx'ing, 5/28/16

1109z, 2500, WWVH. WWV was coming in as clear and free of QRM as I've ever heard it (something of a minor miracle on the 750, which is usually overloaded with MW harmonics in that range), but I could also hear the YL who gives the time at WWVH underneath, something I've never heard on this frequency.

1120z, 5875, Radio Thailand, Cambodian language broadcast. Faint but distortion free signal. Just a bit of noise. OM, news reading format.

1127z, 5925, CNR 5. Soulful music with YL vox. OM on at 1129, but signal too weak to be able to tell the language for sure. (Voice of Vietnam 2 is also on this frequency, but their weaker non-directional beam and greater distance means CNR 5 is the likely station I caught.)

1132z, 5955, China Radio International, Beijing broadcast. Same as the other day. SIO 212 (annoying buzz on this frequency, probably local interference.)

1134z, 5975, CNR 8, Korean language broadcast. YL, news reading format.

1137z, 6055, Radio Nikkei 1, very nice for a signal reportedly only 50 kW. SIO 323. OM and YL interview/discussion format.

1145z, 6348, Echo of Hope (faint but audible) and North Korean jammer. I can always hear Echo of Hope here, sometimes without jamming.

1152z, 7410z, China Radio International, Filipino broadcast. Sounds like they mixed the interval with other music. Reverb effect present. By 1156 it was just the interval.

1201z 7560, VOA, Korean broadcast. OM news reading format. Great signal, some fading. 545.

1205z, 9430, FEBC Radio, 544 signal. OM commentary format.

1208z, 9445, Voice of Korea. Very faint music, 121. This is cool because it's a nondirectional transmission, making it the first time I heard them on anything but a broadcast aimed at the Americas.
