with 100 kW (AM-modulation) from Sitkunai in Lithuania to Japan and Asia.
The program will be essentially the same as the English broadcast to North
America on 09. October. The main feature will be audio clips from the
Radio St. Helena Day 2009 programs.
There will also be information about the RMRC, comments on RSH and RSD by
Robert Kipp, and (we hope) some special comments by Mr. Toshi Ohtake of
the Japan ShortWave Club (JSWC). The RMRC wishes listeners everywhere good
reception conditions.
No return postage is needed for the special RMRC QSL-card. There is also
an electronic QSL for email reports. The postal address can be found on
the club web page at
With best 73,

KYRGYZSTAN 5130 on 15 Oct, at 1718 UT, UNID, poss. Radio Maranatha.
Heard with long winded religious-sounding soft talk by a man. The language
was not oriental, and sounded more like Farsi. At 1730 UT, short pieces of
gospel music were played, done by a mixed chorus to guitar and piano.
After that there were two long selections done by a woman and then dead
air after 1743 UT. AOKI lists this from 1457 to 1743 UT. I guess they just
keep the carrier on or make adjustments, etc. Perfect signal with no QRM
except for about 30 seconds at 1730 UT due to 4-level FSK bursting about
3 kHz down. With this signal strength it should easily make it to Europe
and Asia.
