6100 RAI at 0630-0800 UT on Jan 5. Noted various persons in Italian lang
comments. Once in a while, Italian pop mx presented. Couldn't find this
freq listed in any of my references (don't have the newest WRTH yet). Went
to RAI's web page and found the freq listed for Eastern Europe between
0630 to 0800 all in Italian. Earlier the signal was fair but seemed to be
some Jamming type splatter interfering. Seemed like the jammer was on 6090
or nearby. By 0740 UT signal was still audible while the interference
mentioned above, was fading.
