radio australia signal is weak

I had success receiving Radio Australia last summer in the 19 meter
band. I've been looking up their frequencies on primetimeshortwave.com
. Lately I am only getting faint signals, which are even weaker than
the Voice of Russia.
Has anyone in North America had success with Radio Australia in the
past few months? I'm curious to know which times and frequencies are
successful.
Typically I use a Sony ICF SW7600GR or Eton E5 with just the builtin
antenna. Grounding hasn't helped much - the signal just seems too
weak. I'm in an apartment and I don't have the option for a lengthy
outdoor antenna. I have a DE31 loop antenna that doesn't really help.

I was listening to Radio Australia earlier this morning on 9580 khz.
The signal was good...good enough that I'm sure it would have been
listenable on my SW7600GR using only the whip. I'm in NY.
