While going through wav files from a recent DXpedition near Lubec, Maine I came across a weak voice under France on 1377 kHz just after 2100utc on Nov. 12. I could not ID the language so asked a couple of experienced DX colleagues, Mauno Ritola and Vlad Titarev, for some help. Mauno suggested the language might be Swahili and offered to ask a ham friend in Kenya if he could verify that. The Kenyan ham has come back and verified the language as Swahili though he could only pick out a few words.
I have emails out to a BBC colleague at the monitoring office near Nairobi and to a former FSN employee of VOA's Nairobi monitoring office who now lives in the States for additional confirmation. For now, I'm calling this a logging of Radio Free Africa, Mwanza, Tanzania: http://realmonitor.com/qh5/141112/DKAZ/2100/tza-1377.wav _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
