Re: [IRCA] 1566 TWR Benin right now 0336 UTC

Good job guys.

Sometimes there's high end openings to Africa when nothing else is coming in nearly as well. These tend to correlate with sunrise near the xmtr, but this is quite a bit earlier than that. When this is is that well, look for VOA Sao Tome thru phased WCKY as they are from the same general area and also high end.

783 Mauritania has been all night for at least two years I think. I can't get them in IL as I am 14 miles from WBBM but they aren't hard when using Phased BOGs at my WI Lake Michigan Bluff House. Their SW // goes off overnight. They play continuous mx overnight which is basically Arabic with African flavoring. 

There used to be more high end Africans on the air to try for in cx like that but most are gone.

1088 Angola while not high end, has put carriers in my IL or WI places before but nothing that I felt was better than 10 dB S/N too low for audio.

73 KAZ
