Re: [IRCA] Follow-up on Romania thread

Those are good catches.

I'm trying to keep an eye on the Romanians too. So far, no success to hear Radio Timoisoara 630 or RRA 531. Anybody heard them?

I'm reviewing Perseus recordings from Cappahayden Newfound in November 2018, using our "north" wire.  Tonight I ran across an interesting situation on NOV 13, 1829:50 - 1830:00 UTC.

1.  A haunting female vocal is weak under BBC on 909.  I manage to parallel this same music with 1404 and 1593.  Much stronger on 1404, poor on 1593.  Must be Radio Cluj, which is scheduled at that time on transmitters in Cluj 909 200kw, Sighetul 1404 and 2 synchros on 1593.  I previously heard an ID for "Radio Cluj" 1404 at 1800z.  And it is pronounced "clooge".

2.  Meanwhile, underneath the music on Radio Cluj 909 there is a barely discernible "Radio Romania Actualtati", but it's not a voice-over, it's a different station and I find multiple parallels to this on 945, 1152, 1179, 1404, 1422 and 1530, none of which have the haunting female vocal, except 1404 which is also 2 Romanian signals.  The 909 RRA station in Timisoara is 50 kW.

So, yes, the two separate signals on 909 are also on 1440 at the same time.  An interesting "pile-up" of co-channel Romanians.
