The recent X1.6 class solar flare and resulting storm has been exciting because of the effect it can have on radio transmission. I made a recording today and am at a complete loss. I don't know what language is being used much less what the conservation is about. I uploaded the audio to YouTube in the hopes that someone can help identify it.

Update: I asked someone from Japan if he could place the language. He said it was not Chinese, Japanese or Korean and said that it sounded like it might be a Southeast Asian language (like Vietnamese or Thai) but he wasn't sure.

More Marshall Island Reception
I was able to record another brief transmission, also from Roi Namur island (see last post). It was also late afternoon Sep. 1st, 17:55 local Hawai'i time, on 28.010 MHz. It faded in and out and then briefly came in loud and clear before disappearing again. I transcribed it as:
CQ CQ CQ CQ CQ CQ DE V73NS V73NS K
That is "calling anyone" several times, "I am" and then the callsign V73NS twice and then the K at the end signifies end transmission and inviting anyone to call back. I used the call sign to look up the location.
Here is the recorded signal at the point of best reception.
