3355, PAPAU (PNG), R.Simbu (presumed), 1110-1200*, Dec.9, OM w/ ballads and talk between songs, YL at 1128 over up-beat music, continuous ballads and pops until brief YL at 1142 followed by a song that sounded very much like Phil Collin's "I dont care anymore". YL at 1154 over "bouncy" country/western style music, OM at 1157 followed by instrumental music (NA?) at 1159, off at 1200. Fair/poor signal, over QRN at times, peaked around 1125 then slowly slipping under QRN. Presumption based on PNG sign-off times listed in WRTH 2003. Can anyone in the Western US, S.Pacific/Asia verify this? I don't recall ever hearing anything at this time/frequency. (Barbour-NH)
3976, KALIMANTAN, RRI Pontianak, 1027-1040, Dec.9, Continuos Indonesian talks by OM w/ clear, QRM free reception for 2 whole minutes(!!!) then "ham" operators appeared, burying the signal by 1040. (Barbour-NH) 4790, UNIDENTIFIED, 1046-1053, Dec.9, Pop ballads w/ too much noise to ID language, tho one song appeared to have been in English. Suddenly engulfed by QRN at 1053. RRI Fak-Fak perhaps??
