** ALGERIA. Re Beats on 891: ``Hi Glenn, Today at 0200 I got Algeria
now on 890.997(1) kHz and Iran on 890.999(8) kHz. Something weaker on
890.999(5) kHz. Mauno`` Ritola, Finland, Jan 8, RealDX iog.
Do the () mean approx. 4th digit? Anyhow that would put Alg and Iran
2.7 Hz apart, the third one only 0.4 Hz from Alg (Glenn Hauser, OK,

carrier as Glenn has detected (currently - 0138 UT), but now with weak

** NORTH AMERICA. 11514.9, re does any remote get Hikari FM well
enough to copy? Gary Pence, Dallas replies Jan 10: ``Hi Glenn, You
asked a Question. I thought I would help out a little and re-sharpen
my SWL skills. Since I used to listen to him before Hikari. On KFS SE
ant I tried that first, no joy; then Mr. Moman Alberta SDR hears me on
40 meters real well to the southeast. I tried him as well. Could hear
him barely with a generous S8 or so. But I landed on KPH Point Reyes
and voilà, improvement. I could hear him playing soft jazz
instrumental on 11514.89 with an ID at 0218z. 73, Gary, km5x`` Pence,
