Re: [IRCA] TP Jammer on 1207khz

I think this is the backup transmitter for Yanbian. The backup is often used after normal signoff and is on frequency as opposed to the normal transmitter. They often have "non programmed" programming on the backup - I think they just want to keep something up during idle hours.

First of all, Paul, I don't understand why you think this is a jammer.
Sounds like a signature tune, or background music to me.  Secondly, the
nominal frequency is 1206 kHz, not 1207.  Yanbian PBS is by far the
commonest occupant of this channel, and is often heard all over the Pacific
north-west.  The actual frequency is very slightly below 1206, and it's in
Korean.  I do not recall anyone ever reporting anything on 1207.  Anyone
else wish to pipe in?   73,  Walt Salmaniw
