When reviewing my Perseus capture of 20 OCT at 2300 UTC I noted what seemed to
be English talk on 576. Most of the time the channel has RNE Spain // Canary
Islands synchros, always in Spanish, so I was intrigued.
I uploaded the file to ' https://app.box.com/s/wihr8af3wu8d8njc01ynjumq3u2t4v8e
' and posted a link on RealDX for assistance.
Right away Bruce Conti recognized EWTN theme music at the top of the hour.
His comments included:
"Radio Veritas? Definite EWTN music at the beginning of the clip. Per the
online 576 R.Veritas program schedule
http://www.radioveritas.co.za/index.php/programmes EWTN 19:30-03:00 UTC."
I replied:
Thanks Bruce. That would be a new one here. Propagation from eastern Brazil
was good (760 at least) so, by extension on a not-too-different bearing, lower
Africa should also have been in play.
Here in the New England states this is likely a better South Africa opportunity
than 828. That one is in there some evenings but is battered by slop from WCRN.
576 is not too badly slopped since adjacent 570 (WMCA / Reloj) and 580 (WKAQ /
WTAG) are mostly talk.
