Are you listening this morning??
I'm poised to see what I hear with my 420 ft of antenna (includiing
ladder line, hihi)..

I'm tuning the 4700-5000 range currently for the AIR (India) mentions
you had..

Will look for the AM commercial broadcast band Asian stations you
mentioned out of Japan, Korea, and Malaysia soon.

I've worked such places on 160m, so hopefully receiving stronger
stations a little lower in freq. is pheasible with my current set up.

You're not that much farther west than I am. If you are looking for that kind of
DX in that frequency range you might want to start a bit earlier in the morning.

Hi MsJ,

I was tuning through MW at 1335 this morning, and switched to the tropical
bands at 1410. The Malaysian on 1475 was definitely there, but I had only
brief bits of audio... MUCH poorer signal than on Oct. 6th. (4895 is/was
coming in strongly, though) Overall it seems a below-average morning on MW
for the splits. I had just threshold audio at best on 774, 891, 1071, 1377,
and 1475.

RRI Serui is "almost" on 4605 now, at very strong levels. Both receivers
here zero-beat at 4604.997... but hey, what's a few Hertz between friends?

A quick scan through 60 meters shows a number of Indians coming through,
such as 4840 AIR Mumbai, 4910 AIR Jaipur, and 4920 AIR Chennai. I'm also
hearing something on 5010 right now at 1444, which I hope is R. Natl.
Malagasy, not AIR Thiruvanathapuram, as Madagascar is a much tougher catch
from here. It's just about sunset in Antananarivo, so fingers are crossed
for Madagascar. Hmm... now that I listen closer the language sounds to be a
tribal or hill country Asian dialect :^(

Does Madagascar come on prior to 1500?

I'm hearing music on 5010 kHz at 1505 with some male commentary now,
then music -- not too strong here.

4920 has music @1505
4910 is dead @ 1506
4840 has music @1506
4780 has somebody reading the news? @1507
4761.7 has some CW stations there @1508
seems coded as I copy just strange character sequences
4760 has some weak audible @1509
4750 has a woman speaking (non-English) @1510
4605 seems dead @ 1511
