Can barely copy this station. Female announcer stating this is Libya

this is ?


Actually it sounds like she is saying "olivia radio" or "olibya radio"
or something phonetically similar.



OK, then that would be Olympia Radio out of Greece, formerly known as
Athens
Radio.


Indeed, that fits what I am hearing. So the language is Greek...


And a web search turns up may hits regarding its function:

“It's an ordinary maritime station with an English and Greek
identification loop. The 4 digit numbers are channel designators
like 1601 (1. channel on 16 MHz: ship 16360, sho 17242).
No beacon, no number station, no mysteries at all.”

Michael
