Yes, they did revert to a very strangled English after I sent the post.

I wonder about that as the program content seemed clandestine/pirate and all
the states down around here are very friendly with President Obasanjo of
Nigeria, so I really wonder at the TX site being in South Africa or any
other Southern African state. South Africa has a highly regulated broadcast
environment and any pirates are soon detected and shut down.

Also the U.S. government is friendly towards Nigeria and I question whether
the U.S. would officially sponsor anti-Nigerian broadcasts.

dxAce, where did you get this info on the TX site?

Perhaps a bit of vernacular that I might have missed, but the program is
in
English, at least what I'm hearing here.

S9+10 here as well.
