AL QUAGLIERI - Can anyone clear this up: Per tip from Mahendra Vaghjee
in Mauritius, tuned into VO Mediterranean test 1800-1900 on 9765 today
(//5890 inaudible). Went on IRC #swl and listened with Jay Novello. VOM
was there, mixing with VOR in EE to Eur. VOM off at 1900, but someone
remained on in EE and it wasn't VOR. After a frustrating hour of
listening to very poor signal in EE, station went into AA @1957...then
Jay found //12060, making this likely VOM. Jay asks, "so does this mean
9765 switched from VO Russia to VO Mediterranean, right when Juelich's
test went off?" Inquiring  minds want to know.
