While DXing at a place called Sans Souci - between Florence and Yachats, OR - I 
heard what I believe to be Kiribati on 1440kHz following a tip from Chuck 
Hutton.  I was using a 160’ DKAZ with 902 ohms Rt [termination resistance] 
pointing about 235 degrees, pictured here:

At 0800utc on July 30th I heard the following unmistakable island choral 
version of “Oh What A Friend We Have In Jesus” under KMED - starts at :14.  
Kudos to Guy Atkins for recognizing the hymn.

Then, at the very end of a 1000utc TOH wav file I heard what I believe is the 
Kiribati national anthem - starts at about :16

I used this YouTube to compare what I heard to the Kiribati national anthem and 
am pretty certain they match:
