I listened to 17660.00 on Feb 2 from 1335 to 1429. UT. Nonstop highlife music.Very enjoyable and with SINPO 3-4 5 5 3 4 , getting better. At 1349 a very weak station under was heard with arabic music, but disappeared after a minute or two. No jammer was heard during the whole time of listening. The station with african music just kept on playing their highlife music. Nothing that even ressembles an id was heard. At 1408 a song which included the words "independence" and "Cameroun" , at 1410 a song probably titled "L'Afrique, c'est mon pais". At 1429 they went off the air, without any spoken words, leaving the frequency free from any other station, the qrg is dead, whatever antenna I use. BTW, as a very young DX-er I didn't fancy high- life music at all, even called it pejorative things like "Lumumba music". Time and life have taught me better. To Björn from Johan : drop me a personal email if you find out what we are listening to. 73/ Johan Berglund, Trollhättan, Sweden AOR AR7030, K9AY (now operational again), 30 meter longwire ---[Start Commercial]--------------------- World Radio TV Handbook 2006 is out.
