Hi Bill, <<< I listened to 846-Kiribati sign off at 0900utc. Nice signal and wonderful acapella national anthem. >>>
If the Kiribati duo (846 and 1440) are now signing off at 0900 UTC then it would be the second time change in about two months. When I was in Kona (mid-December) they switched from a 0936 sign off to a 1006 sign off. 1440 was usually hammered by JOWF around its sign off time in Kona, but 846 was usually in the clear (with only occasional competition from a presumed Radio Veritas). <<< Who says DXing ain’t exciting?! >>> Not me!
