KAZAKHSTAN 9310 Family R. Signal came on at 1046:57, and deadair to 1100 when
usual IS song started. W w/pres. opening anmnts in Ilocano. 1101 fanfare then
apparent rel. tlk pgm. Slowly getting better and up to fair by end, 1157 w/same

anmnt in Tagalog. 1201 fanfare, W w/intro and tlk by M (same pgm an hour

at 1400:04. Nothing from Kazakhstan on any of the other sub-31mb freqs/times. (28
Feb.)

but didn't hear any. Went off at 1415:07. Plus splash from 9370 WTJC. (28 Feb.)
KUWAIT 11510 R. Free Asia 1059 instru. mx, 5+1 time ticks, M w/ID in pres.
Tibetan, instru. mx, then tlk by deep-voiced M. After time ticks at 1200, it went
off. Not much stronger than at s/on. So no sign of Kazakhstan from 0950-1210 during
the MD recording. (28 Feb.)
MICRONESIA 4755.47 The Cross Went off at 1030 in mid-song. Pity too because
it was the best its been hrd in a while. (3 March)
PAPUA NEW GUINEA 3915 R. Fly Back on. Hrd as early as 1025 w/weak mx under
strong Hams that didn't quit until 1115. Finally at decent level at 1137 w/Bob
Dylan song. Island song then. Poss. deadair 1148-1149, then another island song.
Audio level seemed to vary from song to song. Was getting Ham splatter from 3912
the entire time too. Nothing but CH on 5960. Only other PNGs hrd were 3385, 3365,
and 3260. Too late to check 7325. (3 March)

again, and more Koran 1206-1209. Pgm of Asian Pops at 1212. Best around 1210. (3

(3 March)
GABON 9580 Afrique Numero 1 2101 Quickly moved up here from BSKSA and found M
in FR w/ID, and into nx. Good clear signal. (3 March)
Spent the 1300 and 1400 hours looking for xmsns from Kazakhstan but nothing
definitive. Nothing on 9310 at all while Family R. was hrd there on the 28th. So
it looks like Kazakhstan can be added to the list of SWBC countries gone. (4
March)
UNID. 7560 Family R.?? 1313 Rel. mx, then M in Asian lang. Not that bad of a
signal with a bit of lcl QRM. Gone after 1400. Family R. from diff. site
perhaps?? Armenia?? Tajakistan?? (4 March)
UNID. 9380 R. Free North Korea?? A weak signal here at 1319 w/M tlking. Too
weak to determine lang. (4 March)

UNID. 9440 Just weak signal w/poss. bits of audio. Maybe just V.O. Russia. (4
