On 2 May 2007 I made some random checks 1500 onwards to see at what time this distorted audio starts to fade in. Nothing there until 1653 check. Booming signal overriding VOR on 7310. I'd guess this UNID had come to frequency a bit before 1653. I got the "best" audio on about 7308. There is a carrier, but it's oscillating very rapidly and wide. This time the audio package was rather narrow, later it spread some 5 kHz both sides. At 1704 I believe the language was Arabic. At 1727 they played afro-pops for about 10 minutes. Later I guess the language was changed to French. Around 2020 I checked 6165, under Croatia there was a weak station with nonstop afro-pops not // 7308v. Possibilities on 6165 are Zambia or Chad. 5915 Zambia was also audible with different program. Considering the signal strength on 7308v I'd guess it's 50-100kW transmitter at least. As you guys say, Chad is a good guess.

Spur was mostly talk in French, but at 0513 a bit of music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. Extremely distorted spur on 7312v: On UT May 2 I was finally waiting for it early enough to hear it pop on at 0429 with music; 0433 some talk, 0437 back to music. Just too distorted and too much ChAf from 7310 to make any more of it. But that scheduling does point to Chad. Of course, 6165 is blocked here at that hour by Bonaire. If it were a mixing product with MW there would have to be something on 1148, unlisted and unlikely. Could be 6165 transmitter is very badly mistuned. Is anyone currently hearing it at any other time? Or maybe they have tried to retune it to a 41mb frequency. Or maybe none of the above. Note: I can`t get a precise measurement on the frequency since there does not seem to be a detectable carrier in all the garbage; but on different dates it has seemed to vary slightly from 7311 to 7314 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ---[Start Commercial]--------------------- Preorder your WRTH 2007: http://www.hard-core-dx.com/redirect2.php?id=wrth2007 ---[End Commercial]----------------------- ________________________________________ Hard-Core-DX mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ _______________________________________________ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.
