[HCDX] Bahrain 9745

["Jari Savolainen" <jari.savolainen@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Noted in DXLD 3-067 Dave Kernicks info about Bahrain being
again on shortwave. Well, I had to check this (of course :)
and on 18 Apr at 1559 under VOR interval signal there was an
Arabic speaking station on 9745. At 1600 VOR had ID in French
and then it closed down, leaving tha Arabic speaker alone on
the frequency. At 1605 there was an announcement sounding
like "Idha'tul Bahrain" and then into Arabic music. At 1611
again announcement "Bahrain toqqadim" and female with
some topic items with music bridges imposed with morse
sound effects. Mode is AM with suppressed lower side band
as Dave said. Decent signal here.
