10872.2kHz  (Marker?) "D" from 1430z 4 Jul 2017

Checking Japan based SDRs in // confirms this along with "M" also heard on 10872.4 kHz at those sites.

4102.720 KHz  Windy. Good signal with some fades. Slight breeze. Temp 109 Battery 12.8 volts

Maybe hot and cloudy there because the battery is not up in the 13 volt range yet
