Has anybody heard VOIRI's slant on the earthquake that leveled entire
cities in southern Iran? I haven't been able to get them in on 6120 at
all, and I thought I heard them on 9580 last night but I couldn't get
anything intelligible. (At least those are the freqs Passport lists for
the 0030 tx to NAm.)

Has anybody heard VOIRI's....

I haven't heard anything from them, and I've been trying those frequencies too.

The schedule for English language broadcasts is at
http://www.irib.ir/worldservice/engl...IO/default.htm

Schedules for transmissions in other languages can easily be found
elsewhere on that website.

I can't get them on shortwave, and when I try listening to
their english internet transmission via streaming audio
all I get is silence.

I think they're off the air...

Don't know if their webpage is up or not.

It turns out that what I heard on 9580 was a BBC tx to Asia. I suspect
that getting parts for those old Soviet made transmitters is kinda
difficult nowadays, although Voice of Russia seems to manage ok.

I listened to a VOIRI webcast a couple of weeks ago and was amazed at
how well it came thru this dial-up. The only trick was you had to
listen at the time of the radio broadcast.
