Re: [IRCA] More 1170 kHz TP Follies-- VOA with African Music at 1420 UTC?
Great job on 1170 with a ULR, Gary. Checked here this morning out of
interest (where KPUG is not usually an issue, though IBOC from KSL
certainly is). At least two sets of time pips at 1300, and "Welcome to
the Voice of America in Cantonese". At 1400 it seemed to be KBS
virtually by itself. Haven't yet logged the Chinese here.

Hi Walt,
Thanks for the tip about checking the Euro-African and Middle Eastern
station listings, when investigating UnID's during our sunrise TP chasing.
In this case of the booming 1170 kHz non-Korean/Japanese/Chinese foreign
language station, Bruce's explanation of the Indian language program on KLOK
sounds very likely, though. Its signal strength on the peaks (9+) was
probably too much to be coming from Europe, Africa or the Middle East.
So I guess the final assessment of my 1170 Khz loggings over the past two
days is a mixture of KPUG, KLOK, the KBS station (HLSR) and a presumed CNR1,
which I will check against the 5030 parallel at the first opportunity.
Quite possibly the Indian language program on 1170 kHz will fool some DXers
into thinking they have received the exotic catch of their lifetimes :-)
