I was home sick today, so I was listening to V. Nigeria on 15,120 KHz
from about 2000 to 2100z. *A potent signal to say the least, would
have been easy armchair copy except for one thing - their audio is
terrible. *The sound is either muffled, or overmodulated, or the high
tones are omitted, or something, but the distortion makes an otherwise
great African signal almost unlistenable much of the time. *Any ideas
what their problem might be?


Thanks,

Bruce -- been this way for years (decades) -- Nigeria
and Egypt similar in this regard. . . .

Yepp, thanks, noticed that too. Diametrically opposite ends of the
Sahara, but both are right in sync when it comes to their audio.
