Yesterday evening seemed good for Africa with
Mauritania booming in on 4845 kHz.
So - as haven't been on the bands really for ages -
listened in on 6030 kHz as Radio OkapÍ from (Kinshasa?) would be new to me.
Tuned in at 22.18 and lovely congolese songs and western soul was heard. But a
hard nut to crack - only once heard the DJ (though then very clear) say
'Okapí - ' then a few words on local language. Some later DJ ann's which could
have been in French - very hard to judge, but absolutely no 'Okapí' could
be heard there, and on top of tunes.No other IDs, seemingly, until I
left at 2305. Signal peaked here at 2240. Easily reported on soundtrack, but
hardly possible 'the oldfashioned way'. Not easy to ID at this music
hour.
By the way, tuned in on 4845 this very moment and
found NO signal whatsoever on 4845 agn, i.e. no Mauritania at ard
1910. News reports at scarce here, when it comes to countries like
Mauritania, so haven't been able to follow latest developments.
