Jan 24 I came to 17840 around 1220 and noted them [Algeria] with good signal. Lady hosted a talk/phone-in programme in French. I guess it was rather educated discussion as the callers/studio guests were titled doctors and professors. Parallel was found on 15255 with similar good signal. Couple of minutes before TOH a bunch of ads, Hyundai, Toyota etc and around 1300, as Noel mentions, several mentions of "Radio Algerienne". I had to leave the house at that time, so no idea when the s-off was. I agree, this is possibly a relay via?. 73 Jari Savolainen Kuusankoski Finland ------- Noel R Green wrote [dxld]: ------- Re: [dxld] Algeria back on SW; relay? Re Algeria...............I tuned 17840 today (Jan.24) after Romania (in French) went off 17845 at c1157. There was nothing audible at first but then a station "crash started" on the hour. The transmission was in French but a poor signal with lots of fading. However, 'things' improved a little in the next hour and I was finally able to hear a clear ID at 1300 as "Radio Algerienne", and this was heard several times. Time pips were heard at 1300 but prior to that mostly talk/discussion between a man and a woman and after 1300 what seemed like a news broadcast. I could not stay with it longer to hear what time it went off. This didn't sound like a resurrection of one of the old Algerian units and, on checking I found this signal was almost the same strength and fading as Woofferton 17640 while Issoudun 17620 was much weaker. 73 Noel R.
