Colin, I suspect that this is simply NHK2 with Russian lessons. I have heard them very early, but don't remember the exact time, but that's who I think it should be.
" " " - 1134 - Japanese - Tokyo I assume, 1143 a mess, 1152 in lang...
0920 UTC - 1152 - Spanish... not kidding... no mistaking. Russia FS?
Perhaps Filipino? I know that I've sometimes been fooled.
Actually, I think the latter is NHK2, Walt....PAL lists NHK2 with SS nx 0915-0930 UT, and I've just checked a recording I made of 774 kHz at that time, and yes, SS news. The RR lessons are listed at 0730-0745, so that remains mysterious. Seems odd you're not hearing Vanuatu on 1125, as they're listed in PAL with 10kw as of July 2009, but I didn't hear them either when working offshore from Hawaii.
best wishes,
Nick
There you go. I have noted that the languages I've heard from NHK2 don't correlate well with what PAL lists, at least with some of the previous versions of PAL. Right, no luck with a lot of the Pacific Islands this time. I'm going to try to go after the Marshalls tonight, and perhaps Kiribati as well.......Walt
