Sorry, I'm not sure that this odd 11784.91 signal was origin of Saudi
Arabia. That odd frequency used by ARS in the past, in 2008 season. Maybe
its an intermodulation of nominal 11855 kHz?
I heard only a HQ program until 16.59:18 UT at S=6-7 strength level. I'm
sure that at this time VoINS Jakarta (the other odd candidate on v11785) was
much, much stronger on 9525.97 kHz.
So, you managed an equal signal from 0958 UT, which lasts - probably - til
16.59:18 UT. Only the old Jeddah site sets are odd frequency. And the tiny
signal fits only to the Jeddah signals in 31 or 25 mb.
All Riyadh signals, even side lobe directions in Bengali, Swahili, and
English language to WeAF are usually much stronger compared to Jeddah
signals.
Dr. Hansjoerg Biener covered an item in August NTT column, that US-firm
Continental will replace old units by new SW transmitters in 2011/2012 at
Jeddah site.

Are you sure that it was the 2nd prgr. and from Jedda? At least today
Saudi R. signed on with rather good signal at 0958 definitely with Quran
prgr. on 11784.91 kHz. At 0830 a weak carrier appeared on the long-time
Saudi offset of 11854.94 kHz, but I couldn't get audio.

SAUDI ARABIA 11784.92-odd Today Sept 14th was one of the better days
propagationwise.
After long pause noted BSKSA Djedda's 2nd program again. Though scheduled
in
WRTH spring update as 0600-1700 UT on 11855 kHz. But heard today with
Holy
Quran prayer between 1630 and TX off at 16.59:18 UT at S=6-7 strength
level
on 11785 instead.
Checked against Voice of Indonesia, Jakarta, but latter was still in 31
mb
on odd 9525.97 kHz S=9+20dB seldom strong at 1645 UT.
