6.486MHz followup
 

At 16:43EST (21:43UTC) on 6.486MHz a signal with music that sounds
Irish, or Celtic, with a lot
of shouting going on. S5 with muffled audio.

At 21:46 went to silent carrier.

Interesting music, singing and ululating.

At 22:00Z they went to news.

It sounds like Arabic to me.
Some of the sound bytes have the oddest sounding
Spanish I have ever heard.

Maybe a mix of Spanish and Arabic?.

Anyone know what Basque sounds like?

I am recording it and will try to track down a former
coworker from Jorden and see if he will translate. Of
course if this is a AQ call to arms I guess HS will
hustle me off to Cuba. :)

Pretty much. They are scheduled to go to Spanish at 2300.

Well it is nice for someone who knows spanish that thinks it doesn't
sound like spanish even though most of it is :)

I was really doubting my ears this time yesterday as I can to the same
conclusion.But as I posted earlier it is Republica Arabe Saharauis
Democratica. I also heard the ID at 23:02 today.

Knowing what the ID should be sure helps when you hear it. It is really
hard to ID a station when you do not have a clue as to who they might
be.

Now ....where is this signal coming from? Algeria? It is loud but the
drifting is not a good thing. Oh well, they are on the air !

Yes, supposedly via Tindouf, Algeria.
