Thanks Theo, <<< The presence of a commercial rules out RNZ National from New Plym or Timaru. My ears can't grab more than <builds.com> but the tel. number prefix 4654- matches the landline exchange assignment for a bunch of businesses in Charleville, QLD. Oz uses eight-digit numbers and they're pretty constant/fixed as they put cell/mobile use on a separate area code, unlike our muddled groupings. >>>
There were quite a few more 918 recordings made in the Cook islands, and the name Charleville does seem to sound familiar. <<< All that would point to 4VL as one of the battlers. At least you caught a commercial breakout as both 4VL and 2XL/Cooma, NSW are listed as carrying overnight programming from 2GB. >>> That's nice to know. I guess my chances of separating them out aren't all that great! By the way I'm pretty sure I had 918-RNZ during an evening sunset skip session to NZ on one of the other days. Receiving Kiwi DX around the NZ sunset was like shooting fish in a barrel, regardless of transmitter power. Even 936-Chinese Voice was S9+. <<< In hunting for this stuff, Aussie's Yellow Pages decided my IP address was a bot, and I had to prove otherwise! <g> >>> I'm glad they didn't shut you down, or I would probably have been shut down as well.
