AUSTRIA 9815D Deutsche Welle Jan 18 1507 Pop music; only occasional
snatches of audio, S/N ratio 10-13 dB, not quite strong enough for this
14.56 kbps transmission.

The following qualifies only if you can hear R. Austria International in
German at 1000-1300 UT on 13730 or 6155 kHz. RAI broadcasts live the New
Year Concert by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra with a prominent guest
conductor, once a year on the first of January from 1015 to 1240 UT. This
concert is made up of waltzes, polkas and such. The concert is also
carried on Eurovision, but has never been carried on Israeli over-the-air
TV or radio.
Listeners to RAI in English are not informed of this concert. Many years
ago, when Austria broadcasted properly in English and I was a regular
monitor, the QSL people informed me of this concert, and I try to hear it
every year.
The concert is performed in the Golden Hall in Vienna. This hall is not
very big, and all tickets are sold a year ahead. In the hall, the concert
begins at 1000 UT with speeches by the Austrian President and the Austrian
Prime Minister. Over the air, during 1000-1015 UT we are told about the
music to be played. Over the air, all announcements, like naming the piece
to be played, are in German.
I find this concert to be a very good way to celebrate the Christian new
year. R. Austria International in German broadcasts a lot of classical
music every day, but I have no program schedule.
Even if you cannot hear this concert in North America, it would be a good
idea to inform the English speaking listeners worldwide about this
concert.

BAHRAIN 6010.1 R. Bahrain hrd Jan 18 via DX Tuner Sweden w/ En nx
bulletin at 1901 then into disco mx w/ man DJ (En) at 1902.5. The only
window in this time period that works for Bahrain is 1900-1915 as CRI is
on until about 1858, BVB from Juelich on 6015 pretty much wipes them out
w/ 1915 s/on and what's left is obliterated by Teheran w/ an early Call to
Prayer at 1920 UT.
On top of all this there is co-ch mixing w/ the 5 kW Belarus xmtr,
although today, Bahrain was dominating Belarus. I've noticed that Teheran
has been advancing their s/on progressively earlier, from 1927 now back to
1920 UT w/ a carrier on earlier than that. One wonders if this is by
design to take out a ME station playing "Western" mx.
