I did check 7465 kHz at 1950 and again at 2005 UTC and the signal was<br />

slightly less strong than usual - peaking to about 10dB over 9 and SINPO<br />

estimated as 45533 due to fading and distortion.<br />

But it was nice to see how strongly SHI was being heard in Sweden. I<br />

didn't have time to check if 7105 was on air this morning at the same time<br />

as 11865 - hopefully the transmitter will soon be restored to working<br />

order.<br />

ANGOLA R Nacional de Angola: The company I work for (LBA Group) has sold<br />

to Angola two SW txs. Both are 25 kW made by ELCOR. One is single<br />

frequency, 4950; the other is a dual frequency, 7245/11955. They are pulse<br />

step modulated using a single 4CX23000B in the final. I finished giving<br />

the customer training on Jul 20 and it appears the antennas are going to<br />

be dipoles. The shipment should be on its way there in the next 30 days.<br />

If I can, I will try and find out when they will be on the air and any<br />

other useful info.<br />

ARMENIA 4810, 1850-1858, Radio Armenien, Aug 6, German polit commentary,<br />

ID'd in German as "Radio Armenien". Fair.<br />

By the way, I happened to hear 6295 Reflextions Europe with ID 1830 Aug 6,<br />

still announcing 3910, 6295 and 12255 kHz. Not a whisper on 12255 kHz -<br />

has this freq been used recently?<br />
