Re: [IRCA] More 1170 kHz TP Follies-- VOA with African Music at 1420 UTC?

[D1028Gary@xxxxxxx]

Thanks Nigel,
 
Bruce's hunch that the 1170 kHz Indian music station is KLOK (in  San Jose) 
has been proven correct-- a review of the MP3 from this  morning had the 
Indian-language announcer mentioning a phone number with the 408  area code 
(which includes San Jose). This "Indian" will not help future DXers  sort out 
the 1170 kHz TP's. 
 
73, Gary

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.
