New Zealand seems to have a continuing problems on 15,720. The station
is not on the air again on this frequency. Just a few minutes ago around
the 04:35 UTC time frame a carrier with no audio came up for a minute
and that has been it so far this evening.

This seems to be a recurring problem and it often means that they will
be missing on 11,820 when they switch to that at 04:59 UTC.

Sometimes they do show up on 11,820 and sometimes they don't show up
until 07:06 UTC on 9,885.

I sent them an email last time and they said it was due to regular
maintenance.

Got a carrier now with no audio at 04:43 UTC at the expected signal
level for New Zealand at this time.

Sounds like transmitter and/or feed problems. The fact that they're
denying the problem probably means that they don't have the wherewithal
to fix it, likely due to budget cuts. Shortsighted govts all over the
world are cutting SW budgets.
