VANUATU. 9960, June 25 at 0657, in bandscan direct, tune-in just in
time to hear an S1/S3 signal here, YL talking, sounds like French, but
cuts off at 0658*; back on briefly and off again to stay. This is a
formerly used R. Vanuatu frequency, nothing else scheduled now, so
surely this explains why 7260 is no longer heard before 0700, as I had
just reconfirmed a few minutes earlier. But are they moving to 7260
after 0700? NO, still nothing. 3945 is again being reported as the
next frequency, but still lacking the helpful harmonix 7890 & 11835 it
used to provide. 0700 is too early for me to get 3945 if on, and the
harmonix are still suppressed. Other reports:

``Lucio Otavio Bobrowiec, 3945 kHz, R. Vanuatu, VUT; 06/25, 0928-0937
YL, OM. 35333, 7890, 11835 off/inaudible (LOB). Tecsun 310ET, Dipole
18m, Embu SP Brasil``

Wolfgang Bueschel: ``9959.998 kHz, two radio signals here on that
channel at 0624 UT, probably R Vanuatu, Pacific radio program. S=9+5dB
on Edmonton, AB-CAN``

EiBi still shows 9960 but at 2300-0458 only. Then 7260 at 0458-1105 &
1959-2259; but also 3945 at 0458-1105 & 1845-1959.

Aoki shows 3945 at 0600-1000 & 1900-2000; 5040 at 2000-2400; 5055 at
2100-0100; 7260 at 0000-0559; and no others.

Yet different info in HFCC: the very first entry is VUT on 2485 at
1000-1900; 3945 at 0600-1100 & 1900-2000; 5040 at 2100-0100; 7260 at
2000-0700; 9960 at 2300-0700; all daily for the entire A24 season. RNZ
has filed those frequencies for them as they also do for Solomon
Islands. Vanuatu have only one 10 kW transmitter, so much of these
skeds must be taken as possible alternatives.
