You were hearing those countries' relays from Radio Canada. The
transmitter is in Sackville, New Brunswick.

O245Z somewhere toward the low end of the 49 meter band. Didn't
get a real frequency as I was just bandcruising in bed with NC-125 which
was not calibrated on Radio Nederland, my usual calibration point for 49
meters.

What you were hearing was not a pipeline to East Asia but a pipeline to
Sackville, New Brunswick, Canada.

Both Japan and Vietnam have relays during that time frame from Canada.

It would also be unlikely for either of those two stations broadcasting directly
(rather than a relay) to put in signals on that band that would kick the s meter
right up to the pin at that time as both countries are in daylight.

Yeah, I realized that as soon as starman posted. I'm a
throwback to when R.Nederland meant either Hilversom or Bonaire...now
you hear them on FM local...never occured to me that a program no longer
equals a transmitter.
