Reception from the S. Pacific is unusually bad here in California
2nite.

I am used to SIBC Honiara being hit or miss, and Bangkok
Meteorological Radio too, but R. Australia on 9660 sounds like a
distant weak station, bad fluttery fading, and R. New Zealand I. on
11725, usually an S-9+ powerhouse, is MIA completely. Not even a het
on USB. Weird, since Europe is just fine and Latin America is
slightly better than usual.
