6165 (best) and 9845 (if memory serves, this is close if not right) work
well later in local evening for me starting at ~0400 UTC (when I get around
to listening). You and I had this conversation before. You receive better
with higher frqs and me with lower. But I agree with you with no need for
DRM. I can pick this up on the YB400 in the kitchen with a whip, with only
a bit of fading. Normally use the IC R-75 with the 100 m 'round the house
antenna, and it's first rate reception.

Their schedule changed last weekend OCT 31. I usually listen to them on
the weekends.

On Saturday and Sunday 19:00 to 21:00 UTC
17875
17725
15315

The 15315 frequency has not changed but they just moved off of 17660 and
17735. Generally the highest frequency is the best for me but they are
usually very good on all three with no background noise or interference
sounding like a local BCB station so who needs DRM.

Even on my 30' degenerate a-directional slopwire and any radio with
HF, their 6165 freq slams in here like the TX is in my house...I can
hardly turn down the gain enough. I'm in CA. Their 31-meter freq
isn't as good at the same time.

Apart from my local 50 kw MW station a scant 2 miles away on the SF
Bay plain, no other broadcast powers in here like the Bonaire 6165
broadcasts. For that matter, no other African station kicks butt here
like their 250 kw Madagascar relay - it's almost like a local
too...and it's almost antipodal.
