SriLanka with a couple US pop tunes heard approx 0150 UTC on 15745 kHz
gradually faded out after 0200 and not heard after 0230 UTC.

Funny thing - at least here in California, the BBC and IBB/BBG relay
broadcasts are always a better signal than RTs own broadcasts to North
America. Something about the timing and propagation, I guess.


Same thing here. Nakhon Sawan and Iranawila relays are usually the
strongest. Yesterday however the Ekala transmission in English from
SriLanka was fairly strong for a short time before 0200.

There was a lot of jamming going on yesterday. The Firedrake was on
quite a few frequencies. Even heard a bubble jammer running over one
500 KW broadcaster.
