Re: [IRCA] 738-BEL2 in Apparent Indonesian

Thanks Bill,

Theo D. (my Kiwi English translator every August) was kind enough to sleuth this one out for me, providing me with this link giving the full details on this Taiwan Fisheries special operation www.atimes.com/article/radio-program-for-migrant-fishermen-airs-on-sundays/

If your 1143 reception in Grayland was on Sunday night Taiwan time, you may have tracked down their Tagalog program, making it sound like a Philippines station.

<<< That audioâs kind of rough Gary. >>>

Yes, my neighbor has apparently deployed a plasma TV or something, causing an S6 noise level on most MW frequencies here in Puyallup. The FSL's can null the noise down to about S3, but it's just one more reason to head for the ocean coast for anything exotic. Sound familiar?

A trace of the same apparent speech was on 1143
