** U K [non]. 11825: Hi Glenn, Re your report on BBCWS from Tinang [USAGM PHILIPPINES] at 2316 [Dec 27]. I monitored it from sign on at 2258 with a tone and then time pips at 2300 straight into info about what was on during the next hour, that being the show Hardtalk (Stylised as HARDTalk). Yes, it was a year in review. News read by Moira Alderson followed. At roughly 2308 Stephen Sackur then began the show with a story about Gaza and the war. I recorded the full hour for later playback. Much of the content is sourced from the domestic BBC News channel and then recompiled for the radio version. Reception was a solid SINPO 44444 and easily as good as what I used to get from Kranji [Singapore] on 12095 at 1500 through to 1900 UT.
