SLOVAKIA 7385 Miraya FM QSL, via IRRS via Rimavska Sobota, Slovakia.
Card with full-data, except site, in 5 months for a report to Fondation
Hirondelle, Avenue du Temple 19C, CH-1012 Lausanne, Switzerland. Upper
left corner has orange & yellow Miraya FM logo, followed by info about
Miraya FM, followed by "We are pleased to certify your reception of STAR
radio Liberia."!!!
The card was folded in half and lightly glued, but I was able to open it
(there was nothing on the back). The last card I received from Hirondelle
was also folded but permanently glued. Each arrived in an envelope large
enough to accommodate an unfolded card. I'm very happy to receive these
cards so I'm not complaining; I'm just curious as to why they fold and
glue their cards.

SRI LANKA Radio Ceylon Calling India - 11905 kHz SLBC's new broadcast to
India at 1530-1630 UT on 11905 heard here with good reception on 2nd and
3rd August. It was only audible for the first 25 minutes or so, until the
frequency is blocked by RDP which signs on in Portuguese at about 1555 on
weekdays.
The broadcast starts at 1530 with IDs in English and Hindi, then music,
mostly introduced in Hindi until approx 1546 when there is a short news
bulletin in English followed by music introduced in English (at this point
the frequency is blocked by RDP).
The English ID is "Radio Ceylon calling out to India". It seems to be a
relay of a domestic channel with various FM frequencies announced,
including 95.6 MHz in Colombo (WRTH lists this frequency for SLBC
commercial service in English).
Reception is only possible here Monday-Friday at 1530-1555 as the channel
is completely blocked by RDP in Portuguese on Saturday-Sunday.
