Yes, once I heard a broadcast in Urdu on e frequency 9885 kHz, also once for several months there was a program in Urdu at a frequency of 15120 kHz instead of broadcasting in Bengali. Low modulation was also often at 9695 kHz during broadcasts to Pashto, with bad sound quality also in broadcasting over the Internet .

First reported by Ron Howard on March 27: ``UNID. 7325-USB, 0956-0957 UT. I often check this frequency in the hope that Wantok Radio Light (PNG) will reactivate, but I never heard anything before 0957, so I was very surprised to hear a station only in USB, playing a pop song till totally blocked by the start of CRI at *0957. Is this a pirate or what? My audio - https://app.box.com/s/c3dfnb34kth6si5nllsmjwjp71m99je8 Ron California`` Lucas Bandura, BC, replied at 2130: ``Ron, I reposted your 7325 USB log on the HFU in case anyone there would know anything about it or stay up late enough to check. Big Badfish Al wrote: “Vostochnaya Zvezda most likely since they are no longer on 4015 USB and had the same playlist.”`` Lucas at 2135: ``I am listening on the KFS SE KiwiSDR now, good S3. Much better frequency than 4015! Listeners outside of the US Southwest might have a chance at hearing it now, we will see when night comes. On 4015 it could not be heard at any SDR sites during the day.`` Walt Salmaniw, BC, replied: ``Hopefully a much better choice as 4015 barely made it to Masset. I’d like to see a daytime frequency as well!73, Walt`` Lucas replied at 2148 March 27: ``Token in California on the HFU reported hearing YHWH on 11560 AM three times during his first week of being active in 2023 but I have been checking that frequency daily and heard only legal stations. I will ask Token sometime if he has heard him there since. A daytime frequency would be great for VZ. I am guessing he is much like the Northeast pirates; they use NVIS antennas and don’t really care if they make it outside their region since that is outside their target area.`` Ron Howard at 2309 UT March 27: ``Thanks very much to Amano for his input regarding my 7325-USB (Vostochnaya Zvezda [Eastern Star]) reception, after he listened to my audio. Ron: "00:00-01:25[on my audio clip], this song is Russian popular music. «Магнитная Aномалия» Алло Стелла. “Magnetic Anomaly“ by Allo Stella. YouTube - https://youtu.be/6eK2C_Hvd2Q . Amano, Saitama, Japan"`` Walt: ``Yes, exactly the same. The childish voice at 04:14 is the same as heard on 4015, and also the clips that Lucas provided earlier. I can't make out what the child says at all. Shazam also isn't able to ID any of the music played in the last 10 minutes or so.`` At 0437 March 28, from Lucas Bandura, BC: ``Very, very weak here at 0330 UT. As Walt said the same child voice in a non-English language is heard and the music format is the same. No identifications over about an hour of listening. The audio is still restricted to 2.5 kHz but the bad splatter can be seen

These UAE, Oman and Saudi Arabia states are also developing architecturally rapidly and with enormous amounts of money, see Qatar Football World Cup grandiose urban development - - so - do the Saudi's perhaps need the Riyadh TX site for other government or urban building development soon ? From: Kai Ludwig Sent: Sunday, March 26, 2023 Subject: Re: [WOR] A new Saudi network on Shortwave. What is actually the current use of the shortwave transmitters in Saudi Arabia? Are the Riyadh facilities, meanwhile encircled by construction sites, still in operation at all? Tonight nothing can be confirmed on 9555, 9650, 7425, 11820, 11915. Probably active are 9675 and 11930, and pretty likely the two specials on 11745 and 11860. Definitely Riyadh Radio on 1521. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhpuSD1xnvM pretty much looks as if the new radio program has been set up at Dubai as well. Just the Al Arabiya boss appears to be in Riyadh or to move back and forth between both locations... https://nitter.nl/grvlx001/status/1637720140723675137#m Jamie is of course not an Arabic name. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10964951/BBC-chief-Jamie-Angus-leaves-corporation-job-Saudi-state-TV-channel-Al-Arabiya-News.html And he has an opinion about current affairs at his former 200,000 pound per year gig. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11896621/Ex-BBC-World-Service-boss-says-corporation-right-Gary-Lineker-air-tweets.html Sorry for two Daily Fail links at once, but other articles on these matters are paywalled.
