SRI LANKA - SLBC, 9770, 29 March 2010, 0130 - 0145 and beyond. SINPO
= 14321. Discussion by YL and occasional OM possibly in EE,
punctuated with musical selections typical of subcontinent. Signal
modest but worth a try, maybe worth a reception report (if they ever
respond :-/

Bruce,

Listen to 15745 from 0100UT on. Last night I heard a YL early followed
by almost 1/2 hour of instrumental music then a preacher in English
until about 0145UT then a YL again with what sounded like an address
in Sri Lanka given. Fade out after 0155UT. Could it be SLBC is
carrying TWR? Or is it just a religious broadcaster camped out there.
The only thing listed on 15745 is SLBC. Could not compare to 9770
since Turkey was on the frequency.

I know Thailand was propagating on this band. They were s9+10db on
15275 from 0000 to 0028UT. Maybe you wil have better luck being on the
west coast. If we get a repeat in propagation you should have
reception through to 0200UT and maybe you can get a positive ID.

Good DXing
Jim
