[A-DX] Re: [A-DX] Log: Libyen in Französisch, 11850, 1630 UTC SIO=444

["Wolfgang Bueschel" <BueschelW@xxxxxx>]

Auch Glenn Hauser bzw. KH Schmitter aus Jugi Löw Land,
berichtet über Frequenzwechsel in Sabrata.

Man nimmt die hohen 21 MHz Frequenzen Richtung Süden weg und geht damit 
bandmässig tiefer, wegen den winterlichen Bedingungen südlich vom Äquator.

LIBYA. 17735, July 12 at 1329, poor signal with folk song until 1332 YL
announcement, sounds like Swahili by non-native speaker, mentions Africa,
percussive music, more talk mentioning habara (news?), Afrika, Zimbabwe,
1335 Gamal Abdul Nasser.

All the lists show this hour is YFR in Kannada, a S Asian language, via UAE,
but this sure sounds like Swahili, V. of Africa, Libya to me, which is
scheduled instead on 17725 with Swahili, where nothing was audible. Nothing
audible on 21695 either, supposedly // Libya; only weak signals from Spain
21610, 21570, 21540 detectable on 13m. 17735 went off around 1356, also
matching Libya 17725 schedule. After 1400 could not hear it in English on
either channel.

It looks like Libya has just made some rare frequency changes! Then I got
this:

LIBYA. 15240 kHz, Voice of Africa. Jul 12. VoAfr was on 15240 kHz at 1500
UT instead of 17725 kHz (I confirmed the frequency on my Grundig G4000A to
make sure it wasn't some spurious signal caused by the Roadstar). Moderate
signal strength at first with no interference with some shallow fading (SIO:
333) with fading increasing around 1520 (SIO: 222), only to improve around
1530 UT (SIO: 333). Programs about "The African woman's continued success"
and another about cities in Africa. IDs ("This is Voice of Africa from the
Great Jamahiriya") at 1510, 1519 and 1531. During this time, I checked 17725
several times but there was no signal. Had to quit listening around 1535 due
to a local thunderstorm. Hope this is of some use, KH Schmitter, Freiburg im
Breisgau, Germany (48°N, 7.8°E), Receiver: Roadstar TRA-2350P, Antenna: Sony
