720 kHz: KDWN has seemed much less a bother this year than in the

I heard what just had to be the VOA "Yankee Doodle" interval signal. I
heard it TWICE. The first time, I couldn't believe my ears, but the
second time.... In any case, there is nothing in PAL for a VOA outlet.
I do notice a VOR outlet in Kamchatka, though, and I know that VOA
buys time on some VOR Far Eastern transmitters, so that is my best
guess. Anyone ever heard this??

I checked the VOA website and didn't see anything listed on 720. I went
so far as to find the pdf of the VOA program guide, which lists
affiliates in the Pacific region. Affiliates are local stations that
carry VOA programs at times. Nothing listed there either. That leaves
at least two possibilities: something relatively new that isn't listed
on the VOA website yet - or - a domestic station that happened to be
running an ad or promo or whatever that included a few bars of Yankee Doodle
