Good reception with some fades, English service.  A fairly "late" get for me at this the time of year, at this time it is usually April or October catch. 

1052 2 OM's discussing current affairs in NZ
1057 "Swinging Guitars" Hank Marvin, Nunzio Mondia, & Gary Taylor
1100 Time pips to OM with news
1103 Reporter discussing technology issues
1107 Lounge Lizard genre instrumental music, getting to noisy to ID now

The hamsters aren't going to be happy about this development. There's a 40 meter net on 7245 lsb.

Hopefully the people who manage nets in that range where 40 and 41m overlap have backup frequencies planned. It can happen anywhere in that range. Mornings here in the west, that part of the band fills up mostly with Chinese (but also a few other east Asian) AM signals. I don't think it's as intense for eastern listeners, though it may be in winter when sunset in the west Pacific precedes dawn in eastern North America.

RNZ has been sitting on 7245 since their frequency change off 9700 about mid-June.  RNZ has made some scheduling adjustments this week as we roll past the peak of the A22 season https://www.rnz.co.nz/international/listen, but 7245 remains a constant. 5980 hasn't been received here yet, maybe this weekend?

One advantage of being out west is that those low frequency broadcasts from RNZI are copyable here, at least for the first hour or so. (Currently replaying my SDR recording of RNZ Saturday Night Requests, since 7pm-12 midnight there is 1-6 am here, at least while we're on DST and they're on standard time.)
