Hi Craig. The Navy runs a rebroadcast of the Armed Forces Network on SW
frequencies intended primarily for ships in the Indian Ocean without good
satellite receiving facilities. It is sort of a hybrid SWBC/utility

One audio, at 1545UT, China fading up on 639 //5030 w/light mx and
some CC talk; how strange is that? Moments before, 774 was a weak
carrier, and although stronger by 1545, still showed no audio.
