Please note that this is not a tx of "KTR" (Kyrgyz National Radio). It's a
tx of the Ministry of Communications (which owns all txs in Kyrgyzstan),
and it is now leased by Radio Rossii from Russia. It carries a time
shifted edition of Radio Rossii, that is why it is not // to the
(European) webstream of RR.

they and I jumped to 5010 kHz where the program in French continued. At
1701 had French ann's mentioning telehone Nos a.o. Shifted language 1705
(Malagasy) into Jose Feliciano-song.

MALAYSIA [and non] Langkawi calling.
As Victor mentioned, I am on the island of Langkawi. That's the
northernmost island of the Malayan peninsula in the Andaman sea.
Population is 80% Malayan muslim, however Chinese New Year is celebrated
all over the island and today also the "Langkawi Iron Man" takes place.
Since this island got the status of a complete tax-free island in 1990,
duty free shops are at every corner of the capital city KUAH. Prices are
really reasonable, although I don't take that advantage of it. Since the
beginning of this month AirAsia has three weekly flights
from/to Bangkok which makes it very easy for a 30 days extension for THL.
The short- and mediumwave situation is not as it was a few years ago.
Could hardly find a proper mediumwave signal from THL here, but at least 5
FM stations from Thailand Satun province. Singapore on 6150 kHz is
disturbed most of the day by a Chinese station, RSI 6080 kHz 1100-1400 UT
