Chuck, Your advice about the Grayland Master Log is appreciated. I'll continue to monitor 1143 for more detailed evidence on the identity of the Chinese station(s), while checking to see if any of them are parallel to 738-BEL2. Even if this morning's 1143 Chinese was Henan, BEL3 should show u

Hi Chuck, Nick, Michael and all, My fair-level 1143 kHz Chinese language station (with a female CC monolog going on at 1138) was assumed to be BEL3 in Taiwan, primarily because of the station's 100 kW transmitter, the huge signal of 738-Taiwan at the time, and the fact that nothing is liste

Thanks for the correction on 738 not being parallel with 1143 Gary. I wonder when that changed? My last firm logging of them in parallel was about a year ago, but even then, I may have been mistaken if it was "both with man in Chinese" type logging rather than a serious, one channel to ea
