9485 "Shiokaze" (presume via Taiwan) *1300-1330* Jul 18. Usual long
opening, then JP program, then usual long closing and off at 1330*. I
don't know JP, but did not seem to be the usual list of names, but rather
a long talk with mentions of "Kim-il-sung" and "America". Usual
blockbuster signal.

11700 Minghui Radio/Falun Gong, 1520-1600*, July 16 (Sun), with Chinese
talk and longish closing ceremony by male and female alternating, Minghui
ment'd (like on its web-site) and 6 peeps before closing. Chinese mx
jammer closed exactly same time! Equal level on the two when I tuned in,
but Minghui became the stronger before close.

URL is and there is an English option. Under
"Broadcasting Information" their time is shown as 0000-0100 Korean time,
1500-1600 UTC, 5880 kHz. July 16-17 is apparently a special b/c, no
mention of it on the website. Gives postal address of: Tae Keung Ha, Exec.
Director, Open Radio for North Korea, 3901 Fair Ridge Dr., Fairfax, VA
22033, USA.
Presumably different from the "Freedom North Korea Broadcast"
although on the website that one also shows 5880
(which has apparently changed)
