1098 A strong signal in Tibetan on 1098 kHz was noted in early Sep 2010,
// with Xizang PBS Lhasa 594 kHz. It's possible that 1098 kHz is a new
Xizang PBS frequency, or that it's something else and both it and Lhasa
happened to be relaying CNR in Tibetan when I heard them. Perhaps 1098 kHz
could be Golmud relieved from jamming duties and shifted from 1134 kHz,
now that AIR's Mogra transmitter on 1134 kHz is inactive and no longer
carrying AIR External Services in Tibetan.

1098 kHz noted at 1955 and 2145 UT with CNR1 and audio in reasonable
synchronism with Golmud 4800 kHz. Also from 2155 and at 1530 UT with CNR11
in Tibetan, not in // with Lhasa shortwave. I agree with Alan that this
seems be Golmud ex1134 kHz. The Russian stations in the Vologda region on
this frequency seem to be off the air.

1134 The 1200 kW CNR-1 transmitter on 1134 kHz at Golmud seems to have
been inactive for several months at least. My last note of hearing it is
from Sept 2009. (Alan Davies) See above item - ed.
