7150 R.KUWAIT 0200-0900 1234567 Arabic 100 kW Non-Directional
Sulaibiyah

They were about SINPO = 32433; only real obstacle was ham QRM, no
surprise there; audio excellent, very modest fluttery fading. If I
spoke Arabic, would have been an easy QSL copy.

I mention it because EIBI does not have this on their latest update
(12 April) just yet.

R.Kuwait once dominated the shortwave in the ME in signal strength. I
think they used to have 250 or 500KW senders. Definetely was wiped out
in 1991.

I think even I could build a missile that could home in on a 250 KW
signal. Death to the Brown Boveri!
