To add a bit more info to the 5020 BBC/VOA wonderings....

Jan 10 1650 utc I am hearing BBC audio in English on 5020 with BBC WS id
at 1700 and current time checks. Signal broadly peaks in the direction of
Africa, but at this time of day (10 am local time) long path African
reception is possible too, so there is another peak in the westerly
direction, of similar strength, but somewhat better. Now at 1725, the
signal is still quite readable, and the only other signal on the band is
the Chinese on 5030 (it's normally very good as it is today). 

5020 is not a normally occupied frequency at this time.

BBC audio is a second or so behind 9410 12095 etc.  It is not // to 3915.
