[HCDX] 5025 kHz Radio Parakou, Benin

["Finn Krone" <finn.krone@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

if you haven't got Radio Parakou in Benin in your logbook maybe today Feb 7is your good chance. Heard here from first tuned in at 1650, fine ID at 1710, in French. Many African songs. Radio Tashkent on and off. At 1850 fair signal on LSB, het on USB. - 

On 6055 kHz at 1830 Feb 7 I had 2 stations in French mixing with equal level and fading in and out almost like MW. Fortunately had different accents - it isn't hard to distinguish a Chinese accent with an African accent. One talking about Rwanda (Rdif Rwandaise), the other IDing as Radio Chine Internationale at 1845.  

AWR Meyerton was noticed in English on 3215 kHz with close at 1830, and BBC Meyerton 3255 kHz strong ard same time.

73's
