I was listening to RNZI on 7145 and at 1058 they indicated that they
were switching to 9655. I went to 9655 and they never came up so I went
back to 7145 and still there at 1102.

Must not have their automation set correctly as this conflicts with
their published sked.

RNZI have a really bizarre frequency schedule. 1851-1935, 1936-1950, 1951-2050
.... I wonder why they don't just change their frequencies close to the hour, so
that it's easier for listeners to remember where they will be.

I am in Hong Kong and I can just pick up RNZI on my Sony ICF-SW7600GR
with the built-in telescopic antenna. The signal is a bit faint. Not
surprising, considering that their target area is the Pacific islands,
not Asia.

It is however surprising that you can hear them in the middle of USA.
That's way off target. I guess you're not using my kind of portable
equipment. Am I right?

Currently using the Drake R8 and a 70' wire. Still coming in quite well at 1230
on 7145.

The RNZI signal is often strong enough to hear in the eastern USA on a
good portable receiver with just the whip antenna. It's just a matter of
listening at the right time. RNZI used to be a real DX catch many years
ago when they were using only 7.5-kw of power. Then they went to 100-Kw
and it became easy to hear them. I ran across them on 7145 just by
coincidence the other night. I don't recall RNZI ever using the 41-m
band before.
