Radio Australia on 21,740
 
Very poor on 21,740MHz today. Their signal has improved over the course
of this time segment. They are for the most part inaudible earlier and
they are understandable now but noisy.

Lately the lower bands have been better than the higher bands and I
expect that is due to the Geomagnetic field being unsettled to storm
conditions over most of the last week.

WWV and or WWVH was poor most of the day for me on 10 and 15 MHz.

Now at 02:02 UTC WWV on 10 MHz is S9+20dB and WWVH15 MHz is S9 still
favoring better reception the lower the frequency.

What was the time and frequency of reception of bupkis?

They were nicely clear on 6020 and 9580 this a.m. ~1200 UTC. This is about
sunrise or so; not good before and after.

Yeah that's the trend these days, lower frequencies are always better.

I'm a little slow on the uptake there. You should get nothing on
Australia since they go off the air at 00:00 UTC. They are on 21,740
MHz 22:00 to 24:00 UTC. It is usual that they are weaker around 22:00
and get stronger toward 24:00 UTC. Yesterday they very poor throughout
that broadcast segment but as usual they were better toward sign off.

Totally my fault. Too lazy to open the book.
