Hi Tim
I was able to confirm that we were hearing two different stations this
morning. I've got CNR1 //981 on my recording. Yours may very well be
CNR11. I don't recognize the language, so I can't help there.
The song at about 1217 sounds like something you might hear on the
Marshall
Certainly nowhere near Victoria standards, but some marginal audio showed up on
531 kHz here at 0440. There is a SeaTac airport TIS on 530 which may account
for some of the male voice, but the female audio seemed to be definitely on
531, and nulling toward Europe. Don't know if this wispy
For those interested, I'm hearing audio weakly on 270 kHz which should be
Czech Radio at 05:05. Note they're beamed WNW-ESE which should mean our
direction. // to the webstream of the 1st program, too!Nice!No
other LW heard.Walt (and best using the ALA 100)
Good to know. All I was hearing on the feed was non-stop talk, and I was
hearing music, but I guess you fellas are correct. 855 is coming in
nicely with RNE (and it IS // to feed!)Walt

Finally got a bit of signal on 639 and here it is the Czech (confirmed

I just had fleeting snivets of audio on 531, sounded like female operatic

I'm hearing weak audio on 1026 as well at 02:54 UTC. Seems like I get the
ME better than I receive Europe. Not sure why. More water somehow? Poor
level. Better than last night overall, but not as good as a couple nights
ago! Walt.

Yep, Radio Tabriz on 1026, 25 second delay from webstream
http://tabriz.irib.ir/liveradio, 0240UT approx (recording will tell me).
Poor at best, but nice sequence of orchestral music, then woman talking.
Only third time that Iran has been heard here at home. Only others were
1503, no longer
Neither 531 or 1386 doing well here at present, but do have Egypt on 864
and Spain on 855.

Looks like it might be opening up at 0225UTgetting a tentative
signal on 1026 which sounds awfully similar to the Radio Tabriz
webstream..And audio seems to be coming up on other channels, after a
couple of hours of futzing around.
