EiBi shows it`s VMW, Wiluna WA on air 24 hours.

Of course, it`s VOA Korean via PHILIPPINES, also // weaker 12080 at 1451 check. If you hear classic tunes from The American Songbook, chances are it`s VOA Korean service, which plays a lot of it. Is this a big thing among Koreans, or by the VOA-K music director; or retaliation for K-pop? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. 12098-USB, Sat Apr 25 at 1436, CAP net, YL NCS Aspen Gold 99, each transmission ending with beep rather than ``over``; classic paramilitary lingo like ``wilco``; Yellowbird 73 one contact; 1439 asks for relays before we close. No, off at 1440* with net ID as Heartland. Aspen Gold is the Rocky Mountain Region tactical callsign, not specifically Colorado which is Blue Mesa. Maybe it was Yellow Brick, which is Kansas, get it? It seems we never hear any real axion on these CAP nets, such as rushing to scenes of plane crashes, but rather extremely rigid pro-forma exchanges. No problem from the weak SWBC on 12095, which would be BBC Somali; HFCC, EiBi and Aoki all agree that on Saturdays only during this hour, BOTH Madagascar and Uzbekistan sites are in use.
