Note: This is a third attempt in recent days to send this reply to the list, 
first split into two parts after being blocked by the list the first time, now 
3 parts (assuming it may be due to length). This is the third attempt in recent 
days. My apologies if it sends all the failed attempts at once someday, but 
none of my attempts to reply to this specific post have gone through to the 
list.

Some information on your clips of 657 and 819 to put the recordings in better 
context for you:

I have always said that 819 is the "flagship" station of KCBS because most of 
the MW stations in the country have shared programming. The Pyongyang 
Broadcasting stations share select programming with KCBS stations in more rural 
areas like Kaesong, Hamhung, Kanggye, etc. However, 819 and 657 are the 
flagship stations, meaning that they do not stray from their network 
programming or share anything with each other. KCBS is KCBS 24/7 (well, 22/7 
actually), and Pyongyang Broadcasting is as well. But if you were to listen to 
other frequencies, they may be parallel to the opposite network at certain 
times, especially in the evening or at night, which is misleading. There seems 
to be no rhyme or reason to it either. I could never pin down a sharing 
schedule for any of them because every time I tuned in, the order of who was 
sharing with who was different.
