Specially look out for broadcasts via AIR Kohima on 4850 then.

Hearing the President's address begining at about 1331 on 9425 and also in
parallel on 4850.

4850 is very weak.

The schedule is:

6065 : 0430-0510 0700-0900

Dates to watch are January 25 & 26, 2009.

On 26th January from 0350 UTC Running commentry of Republic Day parade is
scheduled on

Delhi 6030 6155 9595 9810 11585 15020 etc.

So regional AIR stations on 6 & 7 MHz will start broadcasts on their day time
frequencies around 0330 UTC. Look out especially 6085 Gangtok.
