Perhaps a problem. They are currently on on 9885 at 0900 with a sports
program.

They also plan to drop 9615 after September 4 using 11820 instead starting
September 5.

They were on 11725.

I have a mental map of the bands, useful when I'm goofing around with my
new FR-200, and had a WTF moment when I ran across this, and had to wake
up enough to retune the R-1000 to see who/what/where that new signal was.

It's bad enough that Radio Aus. is all scattered around with
their Olympics coverage. The real Radio Aus. stream seems to be on
11660/9560/9475/6020/5995/6080, while 9580/9590/7240 are sports coverage.
(Frequencies used for portions of 10:00-18:00 UTC). 9560 is new,
I don't know if they use it other times of the day.

Are you sure about that? I thought I checked other frequencies they are
on in case of a goof up and I did not hear them on 11725. I was pretty
tired at that moment could be mistaken.

I have all the current frequencies for Australia and New Zealand
programed in one radio since I listen to them a lot and in that 5 to
5:30 UTC time frame can hear two different streams on five frequencies.
One stream is sport and the other the published schedule. The sport
stream is the Olympic games these days.

15515
15240
15160
12080

Well I thought it was five. Looks like only four. I guess this is what
happens when you don't log. Seems to me that I heard them in the 22
meter band at the same time?

Yes. I heard them on 9885 later that evening. They may have been missing
on 9615 the whole 5:00 to 7:00 UTC segment of their schedule. Mark said
he heard them on 11725 during that time.

We're in the same time zone, so I may not have been more awake than you.
Sure about the frequency, pretty sure it was RNZI, but it might have
been one of the new religious broadcasters, if they have much local New
Zealand news. Anybody ever email RNZI engineering or look on their web
site?

13630. But for an hour Radio Japan is on there at the same time
(06:00?). 15415 is also there, better than 12080 for me. Also 17750,
but fat chance for the rest of the year for that.

Well, the insomia report on 9560 is that it's not on at 10:00 UTC, so It
must come on at 11:00 and is off at 14:00. I'm stuck with only 5995 at
15:00, (as 9590 and 7240 are covering the Games) but it fades out about
15:45, right in the middle of the programs I most want to listen to.

Yes, there is no mention on the website of 11725 except for 1951-2050....

It may have been a punch-up error on their part?
