I received an unknown Chinese station on 7270 Khz at 1055 GMT 29 August
2004. I believe it to be Nei Menggu PBS, but can't make out the ID. It had
the trademark 5 low + 1 high pips on the hour. Audio was pretty
distorted/overmodulated. Broadcast was in Mandarin.

Both HFCC and ILG show Nei Menggu ending their broadcast at 0800 GMT. They
broadcast not in Mandarin, but Mongolian. ILG listings suggest you might have
heard RTM-Sarawak (Indonesia) broadcasting in the Iban language.

How sure are you that the language was Mandarin?

Positive. Caught the "guangbo dientai". Also hrd another weaker Mandarin
station underneath the one of interest (with a trailing "guangbo dientai"
there as well) and presume it to be Sarawak. The 5 low + 1 high pips on the
one I can't ID would make it China, just don't know which site.

Sarawak I believe is broadcasting at that time in Bidayuh, not Mandarin.

Hey, Fat Boy... if you're going to be a real DX'er you'd better learn that
RTM-Sarawak is in MALAYSIA... NOT Indonesia.

Additionally, NASWA breaks up Malaysia into three different countries, Malaysia,
Sabah and Sarawak.

LMAO...

I am curious to know if the ILG lists RTM-Sarawak as Indonesia, or whether Bryant
made that up off the top of his head.

Sabah and Sarawak.

It probably is. Another note to DesignGuy... Sarawak may indeed be using Iban or
Bidayuh at that time, though in further checking I would have to agree that it
is probably Iban, and that would be their 'Green Network'. As a guess I rather
doubt that the language would contain the phrase 'guangbo dientai', but it is
possible, as part of an ID since Chinese is spoken in Malaysia, though it is not
listed as being carried by that network.
