wrote in message ups.com... Do my ears deceive me? Sounds like some weak strains of music on 5005 from Radio Nepal. Anyone else hear it? Steve Almost defiantly not them. I'm not going to say impossible, but very improbable given the time of your post. Even if they used a lot of juice, it would still be improbable on that frequency at that time. 5005 would have been sucked up in daylight conditions. About five months ago, I posted a question to see if anyone was sure how much juice they were using. As pointed out in this thread, they have a 100 kilowatt transmitter, but it is not known if they crank it all the way up. I've tried a few times to hear them and the best I've ever gotten was a het. Who knows if it was them or not. -- Respectfully, Michael Location: New Jersey Primary Receiver: R-75 with full Kiwa mods Antennas: G5RV, 200ft "Frankenstein" roof wire Additional Radios: 7600GR,KA-1101,KA-1102 PL-550, KA-989, Info-Mate 837, GE-SR III Westinghouse H-104 (seven tube) Web Site: http://md_dxing.tripod.com |

Western USA even has a good shot at their English broadcast at 1415-1430 then. dxAce Michigan USA |

I recall an incident years ago when a real Sharp individual (I won't mention his name :-) down in Florida ostensibly heard Tristan da Cunha on 3290 kHz, running 40 watts, over a total daylight path. He sent the station a report and somehow they QSL'd it... after that the individual was pretty much ostracized, at least in the hobby press. It's pretty much impossible to accomplish the impossible. Well I have heard Australia on 6020 MHz early mornings when it was daylight at my location and Australia is half way round the world.
