Strongish het, no audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by

1098 briefly at 1212; 1386 DU; 1566, likely HLAZ; 1592.98kHz approx,
along with something weaker on channel, as Dennis observed. The
MWoffsets list says R. Samoa in New Zealand has been off channel
before, but above 1593.0kHz
Its almost certainly Radio Samoa... I heard them as a carrier the
first three AMs at Grayland, clearly off channel LOW and then on that
last Kiwi Heaven morning, I had Polynesian/Melanesian music. I
measured the freq as 1592.975, give or take :>)
Made it back from southern Oregon thru the Friday afternoon Rush Half
Day in Portland, Tacoma and Seattle.... only to have the joys of huge
ferry lines awaiting a weekend trip out to the Islands. 'Course, it
was crystal clear, a beautiful volcano was looming over the parking
lot, sailboats and tankers were in the channel, nubile young ladies
were parading around, most ostensibly walking their dogs, and it as
72 degrees with a light breeze. Its a nasty job but sumbuddy has to do it!
