It couldn't have been 13.655 if it was in the 1960's. The 22-m band
wasn't used for international broadcasting until the 1980's. I expect
you heard them on 31 or 25-meters if it was in the morning, US time.

Do you recall the frequency and time of day?
I dug out the "log" when I got home.
I haven't looked at it since I got married in
1977. Sadly the ink has faded and I can't make
it out. As our best guess, I asked my wifeto take
a stab at it, 13.655. I didn't know about SINPO for
another year. And this radio had no meter or tuning
eye. My father thinks I put the radio under the eves
when I received a Heathkit GR64 for my birthday in 196?,
the year the TV show "Manix" started.
I will have to look this weekend and see if the old radio
is still there.
