AFGHANISTAN Today I monitored Radio Solh in Lahore from 1300-1400 UT at
6700 kHz. The signal was very weak. In fact, two Radio Solh transmitters
which are located within Afghanistan are transmitting on the same
frequency. The program content is different from both locations. This has
resulted in a very awkward situation. The moment signal of one transmitter
weakens the other is heard resulting in interference. To add to the
problem, the transmission is bilingual i.e. Dari and Pushto from both
stations. In fact, what is happening is that at times half the sentence is
in Pushto and the remaining in Dari. Since the transmitters are of low
power and perhaps within Afghanistan both stations could be heard without
causing interference to each other. Someone from within Afghanistan could
verify.
The program content of one station was back to back Dari Music and two
short announcements in Dari about the efforts of Government to restore
peace in eastern provinces bordering Pakistan. While the other station
played Pushto and Dari Music with short announcements in Pushto and Dari.
The signal of second station was weaker as compared to the one playing
Dari music. Station IDs were not announced during the time I monitored.
Around 1400 UT, signal weakened to the extent of inaudibility.

ALBANIA R Tirana in Italian 7460 kHz at 1730-1759 UT is a very BAD
choice in A08 season, due of RFA Radio Free Asia Tinian Northern Marianas
on adjacent channel 7465 kHz in POWERFUL Korean service. Very, very hefty
interference occured today on 7460 ! 7460 Italian 1730 UT needs urgent
replacement by either 6005 or 7475 kHz.
