Re: [IRCA] 930 Arabic and warble
Paul,
The Wobbler on 930 is nearly perpetual and presumed by knowledgeable
Florida DXers to originate from R.Surco, Ciego de Avila,
Cuba. Probably not so the Arabic programming.
I have heard this Wobbler almost any time I cared to tune in,
sometimes at extreme levels. Of all those heard over the years, 930
remains the most frequent and strongest. Most of the others have
subsided or disappeared, presumably as a result of decrepit equipment
finally being repaired or replaced.
My past investigations of the Wobbler are chronicled at my web site,
link below.

Does anyone have any ideas about the source of the Arabic chanting

I'm not aware of the Arabic being reported on
I did find a message on HCDX (7 Dec 08) from Albert Muick in Kabul
noting what seemed to be the Koran being chanted on 930. But it
seemed to be a one-off.
Ken Baird 20 miles SE of me has posted some observations along with
the text of Albert's message at
http://www.ayrshirehistory.eu/tadx/transatlantic_logs_september_2009.html
and this is my recording from 0528 UTC today. At this time the
greyline passes through France, Spain, Morocco and Nigeria, so is
well to the west of Saudi Arabia.
