Re: [IRCA] Yet Another 531 kHz DU Mystery from Rockwork 4



Gary,

Going into further detail, I have amplified 3 specific sections of your
clip and posted it here:

http://www.onairdj.com/garys531.mp3


At 3.5 to 5.0 seconds, listen for "Normanton" .. a town just south of
Karumba on northern Queenslands west coast

at 15.5 to 17.0 seconds listen for "Townsville Coast", a town on northern
Queensland's east coast, about 75 miles south of Innisfail.

at 21.4 to 23.0 seconds, listen for "The gulf around Karumba".. on northern
Queenslands west coast, directly opposite Cairns.

4kz has a low powered rebroadcaster in Karumba on 1611 and I'm pretty sure
they have a relay around townsvil;le along with full power sister stations
there.

So 4KZ it is on your latest UN'id 531` clip.

Paul
