For SWl I use a R-2000 with a 18 foot wire along the baseboard in my
bedroom. Back in PA I used a DX-160 and a 100 foot lingwire in the
attic. Worked rather well.

Guess i need to modify how i'm doing my Yahoo searches. I did a search for
"15130 khz" and didn't come up with anything
about AIR. But searching for "All India Radio 15130" did the trick.

I started swl'ing back in the mid-70s with a Realistic DX-160 receiver
(ahhhh, the memories of listening to Idi Amin speeches on Radio Uganda on 41
meters ... now THAT was a big signal !). Got my ham ticket in '79. Just
recently started getting back into SWLing, so have a lot
of catching up to do.

Just curious ... what radio and antenna(s) you using ?

Actually I found it at.......

http://www.angelfire.com/in/alokdg/airnews.htm

I did a google search for all india radio schedule and it was the
second one listed with what I thought was the best information. My
best catch of AIR was on the 41 meter band back about 10 years ago.
The 40 meter ham band was quiet an not many to tal with so I started
SWLing. Bingo, AIR on 7140 or 7170, can't recall exactly. Sent for a
QSL and all. Pretty neat to do after letting SWLing go after I became
a ham.

Where did you find this schedule?

I checked A03 (which was supposedly updated on July 20), and it shows no
mention of AIR on that freq.
I checked several English language broadcast lists, the hardcore-DX

mailing
archive, did a Yahoo search
for that freq, and no mention at all of 15135. It would be nice if AIR
updated the freqs listed on the program schedule on their webpage, too.

(i
guess that would be asking too much).

Oh well, so much for using the AO3 list as a resource. Up until now, i

had
found it to be accurate.

By the way, i had a gut feeling it was AIR, but the lack of available
evidence threw me off.

Gracias

Heard a weak EE transmission on 15135 khz at 0330 UTC last night.

Station
went off
the air with a female announcer, followed by a toned carrier, then
off the air by 0345.

I've checked all the published frequencies, and can't find any
listing of an english transmission on that freq at that time
(actually, i cant find ANY transmission of that freq at that time).

Anybody have a clue as to what station this could be?
