Thanks Mauno. I'm really ignorant about what goes on in radio in Iran, and was going to use these poor conditions as an opportunity to check an SDR or two for evidence of what is broadcast on the various non-Radio Iran sites at the top of their hours. I know the Radio Iran chimes from DXing in PEI, and the Middle East, but that's about it.
I had also recently read that Radio Iran stations are all moving to 558 and will be synchronized, is that correct?
Thanks again. Nick At 15:56 2019-01-06, Mauno Ritola wrote:
The external service VOIRI/Pars Today uses the same time signal chimes as R. Iran. I can hear VOIRI Tajik via Tayebad now at 1540 on 720 kHz and I think it is also your UNID on 1098 kHz with time announcement.
I don't hear R. Iran now at all. Maybe Mahidasht has moved to 558 kHz. Mauno Nick Hall-Patch kirjoitti 6.1.2019 klo 6:25:
There are apparently a couple of Iranians on the channel, Gary.  Both broadcast Radio Iran, but one of them only at certain times, and 1530UT wasn't one of them according to MWList.     It's all pretty speculative based on wispy chimes....fun to dream.

Hi Nick,<<<  Going over the SDR recordings, there are ever so faint traces of the R. Iran chimes also on 585 and 720 at 1530UT on 24 December. >>>
For what it's worth, there was a 720 reception in Hawaii two months ago that the Finnish DXers suspected was from Iran, but nobody could identify the exotic language being broadcast at the time.
