Default Confusing entry in ILG db

1210 UTC
I'm getting a great signal for BBC on 9.605 MHz
I went to check the signal transmitter site in ILG's A05 data
and found this: Country ANTIGUA Location Okeechobee
Huh?
What am I hearing? I figure it's Antigua.

Well... Antigua is ostensibly no longer in use...

But, you do pose an interesting question as EiBi shows both Okeechobee and
French Guiana being used at 1200.

Ok, I remember hearing that when BBC reduced "costs". So what is this, if you know.

I heard it too. It was about an S7-S8 here.

On the BBC web site, if you get to a transmitter schedule page for a
region, they have a link to a bar chart graphic of the same info,
but it's labeled with transmitter site. On the Caribbean region
(for A-05), this transmission is tagged as coming from French Guyana.

Well it's not 100% that's for sure : )

Ace reminded me the Antigua transmissions are no more.
And he also said EIBI data shows French Guina / Okeechobee... wtf???
This is what http://www.primetimeshortwave.com/ptswtab.txt shows...
"1200" "1300" "United Kingdom" "BBC" "LA" "9605fg, 11865bo, 15190bo"
9605 French Guiana 1200-1300 UTC
