I happened across what I figured to be DX thanks to the rapid QSB. I have Ham Radio Deluxe which includes a shortwave database. It identified it as: Air FM Gold" at 9425 time 0347Z Q3/4 S5-7, Windom 132 ft dipole. Obviously Hindi or similar music. Then at 0355Z I heard" This is Athens, this the Voice of Greece" in English of course. What was I hearing? Bangalore, India or Avlis, Greece. Does the Voice of Greece carry Hindi sounding programs? At the top of the hour playing what I believe to be the Greek National Anthem. I speak neither language, but the female announcer said very plainly in English the station ID. I'm a long time ham but not experienced in SWL. I note that there are extremely experienced SWLers on this list and I'm sure that this is easy stuff. Good DX to you all, Wayne Lucerne, CA USA
