[HCDX] Re: 5470 station heard



Chris,

Its Radio Veritas, Liberia. Has been on for about a  few months or so. Was also reported this past summer. Best heard at 0600 sign-on, if nothing there wait a few minutes. I've noted them signng-on 15 minutes before or after 0600. I think they are on in the early evenings (EST) until 2200 also.

HI
At 2:50 am EST this morning I happened to come across a signal that
might be interesting.
On 5470 ,I was hearing what sounded at first like someone talking in
low
tones,then it went into  music  I can't quite
classify. At  the hour I heard a woman speaking in English and she
identified the station as Radio  Veritas. I have no idea where this is
being broadcast from.My database says Liberia,but I thought that was no
longer active. I did record this to a wav file and l listened to the
playback . She does say Radio Veritas. Maybe someone else can confirm
this? Signal was 222 to 444  using RX320 and 23 ft vertical.  Heard it
best in USB mode.
