Here in SE UK I've been trying to get Voice of Korea (Radio Pyongyang as
was...) and according to their info at
http://www.voiceofkorea.org/technical/inquiryform.htm I've been trying
13.760 and 15.245 between 13:00 and 13:57UTC. Nothing... Zilch... (I know
it's daytime, will try again later on tonight)

Has anyone had any success with N.Korea? I've been explaining the HF output
of such states to my partner and this is the last proper Stalinist police
state. (Remember the military marching music whilst Gorbachev was "on
holiday" in his country dacha?) Anyway, I'd really appreciate any freq's and
times/locations etc that people have had any success with this one...
Shortwave is just not the same without some decent propaganda. There used to
be loads of it.

Not much of a signal here on 9335 at 1400 but am hearing their interval signal
and anthem prior to listed French.

I've found the height to be a great help. You can barely see the
longwire I put up between the trees in the back yard. Of course, I have
a much better antenna at my Summer place..

I know a University Cork,Cork,Ireland teacher lady who lives in a two
story house up on a hill near Cork,Ireland.Maybe she will swap houses
with you.The Gales over there might blow you away though.Maybe you need
a big tall antenna.

Now (18:12UTC) have China blasting away over Voice of Korea (meant to be on
13.760) but with a huge spread going from 13.756 to 13.766..... on purpose
I think.

13760 kHz and 15180 kHz at 0100 UTC are usually well-received at my QTH
(Edmonton, Alberta). The solar indices are A/K of 15/2 so my reception
of the higher frequencies is kaput at the moment.

HI from Ken in the UK,

I'm in the N.E. of the UK Les and I was listening to 'VOK' at good signal
strength on 13.760KHz at
16.00hrs on Saturday the 26/08/06, but not listened since then.
I will take a listen this week and report my findings later on.......cheers,
Ken, G4KIR.
