It is Libya. Here is the news item, from Bob Padula in EDXP E-Net:

The Libyan authorities have put in place what appears to be a new
transmitter, or transmitters, for its HF broadcasting service, which
includes programming known as "The Voice of Africa".

Transmissions have appeared on various frequencies, in the 9, 11, 15,
17, and 21 MHz bands, and noted generally in the period 1040-2300.
Frequency usage has been subject to constant variation, with some
operations being on the air for only a few minutes, then vanishing.

Here in Melbourne, Rob Wagner noted three transmitters in parallel on
21695, 21630 and 21675 until 1230*, and I have been hearing 9415
(Arabic) in the period 1800-2300*.

Bulgaria Monitoring passes along this monitored schedule as at Jan-09:

1100-1230 21675 21630 21695
1630-1800 15615 15660 17525
1800-1900 11635 15615 15660
1900-2200 9415 11635 11715
2200-2300 9415 9445 9485

Willi
