Yes, of course, this station has a funny interval signal. To me it
sounds european rather than asian.

B.T.W.: The exact frequencies are 6765.1 and 8743.0 kHz USB and the
station can be picked up here at my location on both frequencies,
however 8743.0 has the weaker signal. It fades in at late afternoon
around 1600 UT.

In 1998 I received a verification letter from:
Meteorologigal Department, Telecommunication Division, 4353 Sukhumvit
Road, Bangkok 10260, Thailand. v/s was Mr. Suparerk Tansriratanawong.

Best wishes, Uwe
