Yes, R Kuwait seems on 15515 kHz superpower HQ muslim program an hour ago at
15 UT.
UNID 15438 kHz bcast.
But now at 1600-1630 UT an UNIDENTIFIED Chinese bcast programm on odd
15438.0 kHz channel, next to Riyadh Arabic on 15435.0 kHz.
Is that a SoH relay via Yangi Yul Tajikistan ?

15515, Aug 22 at 1340, good signal with announcement asking for e-mail
reports to [email protected] then some BaBcoCk musical IS, and
``you are listening to a test transmission``, bits of other music, Gypsy?
cut off at 1341*.
(That uncovered some other much weaker signal, presumably Kuwait which has
just started a lengthy Arabic service at 59 degrees on 15515 at 10-05 since
August 17, per Aoki. DX Mix News, Bulgaria also reported this ``additional
unregistered frequency`` as 12-15 from Aug 17, revised to 12-24 on August
20.)
Then I look for BaBcoCk testing on 15180 which had previously been reported
during this semihour, and at 1344 there it is, fair signal peaking at S9+5,
first with steel drum/orchestral music, and ``You are listening to a test
transmission``. Bits of other music followed, only a few seconds of each
before changing to something else. 1345 ``please e-mail your reception
reports to [email protected]`` and more music alternating with
``test transmission`` announcement. This cuts off at 1347, and then not
found on 15515 or anywhere else on the 19m band. I have sent them a report
inquiring about the transmitter site and purpose of these tests. Could be
only for staff training purposes as they have done previously (Glenn Hauser,
