Re: [IRCA] Arabic? on 1430 - not CHKT

["Jim Pogue" <jpogue@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry - should have provided a few more details. It was a weekend DXpedition
J.D. Stephens, Brandon Jordan and I spent on a mountaintop at Monte Sano
State Park just outside Huntsville, AL. WNSW-NJ or WEEF-IL seem like most
likely candidates. I'll go back and listen to the recording again and see if
anything pops out that would point toward those stations. Thanks Scott.

DXpedition to where? A few big-city candidates that may or may not have 
been carrying something in (or sounding like) AA would be WNSW-NJ, 
WEEF-IL and KMRB-CA. KMRB is all Chinese, so probably not them. WEEF is 
a mix of Italian, Assyrian, Romanian, and who knows what. I think WNSW 
is mainly Korean. That's about it for anything ethnic on 1430, except 
for Vietnamese on KVVN-CA and misc Asian on KJAY-CA.
