Namibia has been off the SW and MW for some time.
Probably replaced by FM services.
In anycase, 0500-0530 utc is well after sunrise there and would not
propagate at that time

Still having trouble IDing this one. I work second shift, so by the time I
get
to the shack, this one drops from S-9 to S-7 between 0500-0530. By the music
their playing, I'd be inclined to think it's the Domestic Service of the
Namibian Broadcasting Corporation, in Windhoek. I'm in the midwest, so if we
think in terms of gray line DXing, by 0100 CST it's 0700 in Windhoek, which
would explain the steady fade the later it gets by me. There are times when
the
announcer throws in some English, but it's still tough to copy any ID.
Anyone
else hearing this one down in the trops? Good DXing to you. Gary,
