listen WeAF stations, due of the long path on salt water anyway ...
Refurbishing work at Abuja Gwagwalarda SW installations by the Thomson
staff ended now - seemingly - in Sept 2010.
Because Noel heard the station on new 7350 kHz on Sept 26, 2010 again.

UNIDENTIFIED. The unID I reported to you on 7350 kHz is still being heard
- audible might be a better word to use. But on the 29 Sept. at 0633 UT it
was better than usual, and a man and woman were heard speaking in English.
But I could only copy occasional words due to a still weak signal and
local noise. I tried to compare with other broadcasts that have English at
that time but didn't find anything comparable. The signal descended into
the mush around 0640 UT or so, and has not been as well heard again since.
It was traceable today at 0615 UT but didn't improve. (Noel Green-UK, dxld

Ah, Ah ... so that's why 7350 kHz is only producing such a weak signal
here in western Europe. The beam angle is ideal for most of Nigeria but
not for Europe. And BTW - what can have happened to the other 100 kW
transmitter at Abuja Gwagwalarda ? Perhaps dismantled for spares?
Thanks for this interesting information Wolfy. 73 from Noel.

I guess one 100 kW unit is used in service, the other as operating standby
reserve. (wb)
