deep and fluttery fading with station IDs, news and commentary and
subcontinental music.
4950 AIR Srinagar, heard at 1326 on Oct. 19th, with surprisingly weak
signals for 50 kW and the closeness compared to other AIR stations being
heard. Possible antenna orientation or terrain issues. Heard with IDs,
excited talk, call-in show and pieces of music in between features. Signal
became entirely useless at 1344 UT.

Indonesian stamps provided and used. Not bad for a 32-33 year delay from
