1566 KHz 3NE today received via pure skywave around 12:20 pm. One advantage with business hours daytime skywave is increased ads, traffic reports, etc. During the peak morning traffic period breakfast session around 7:00 to 9:00 AM, D layer ionisation is still quite weak, hence 1566 KHz skywave is quite loud. 1593 KHz Melbourne is also received via skywave.
I have heard detailed announcements re the 1566 KHz to 92.1 MHz conversion. I suspect that these are more common during late evening lower rating hours. Will try to record video and audio on my phone.
When 1566 KHz switches off on July 27, the dominant easy to receive signal will be 4GM ABC Gympie. That TX should continue for some years because of the older audience. Because of the similar great circle bearing from Sydney, 4GM will interfere with 1566 KHz HLAZ South Korea.
