9545 On Monday 13 December I heard SIBC on 9545 kHz around 0700 UT. I
haven't heard them since. I asked a friend who is in the Solomon Islands
serving with RAMSI (The Regional Assistance Mission To The Solomon
Islands) if he can find out what it was about and he said after visiting
SIBC, he was told it was a test transmission conducted by a Radio NZ
technician who was there installing new equipment and repairing some
problems.
Unfortunately the 9545 kHz transmitter can't be used at present because a
transmitter cooling unit has failed, but it is hoped it will soon be fixed
and 9545 kHz will be used during local daylight hours.

SPAIN Dagegen knallbumm immer REE Noblejas in Spanisch um 0735 UT auf
9780drm, eine sichere Bank mit S=9+30dB, SNR 24.2 dB.
DRM ist fast eine 'technische Quaelerei', zu manchen Tageszeiten muss man
eine Aussendung, wie die Preziosen suchen ...
Dagegen laesst sich am fruehen Morgen NZL 11675 kHz und Moskau Taldom
11635 kHz durch Einbrueche nicht dekodieren, Moskau wird dann im Laufe der
Sendezeit besser und das Fernost/Pazifik Programm in English ist in
Studioqualitaet mitzuhoeren.

SWEDEN 17.2 kHz Noch eine Sendung von SAQ.
Eben kam ein Mail aus Schweden, Auswertung der Weihnachtssendung von SAQ.
Sehr gute Resultate, auch in den USA wurde SAQ empfangen.
Um noch mehr Hoerern in den USA die Moeglichkeit des Empfangs zu geben,
gibt es demnaechst noch eine Sendung mitten in der Nacht vom 3. auf den 4.
Januar um 0000 Uhr UTC.
The Christmas Eve transmission was successful. 195 reports, so far. Seven
positive reports from North America! Many stations claimed QRM.
The German stations were in mass this time, like before, 63 reports,
almost a third of all. Can any country beat that?
Thank you for a first report from Iceland.
There will be an extra transmission on the night between January 3rd and
January 4th next year in order no give stations in North America a better
