Who would this be? And where? I have been unable to find anything definitive, other than a few mentions of Dhabayya in UAE. Would this have been them? Perhaps one of you guys on the east coast would know. Quite a few more TA's in at the same time.

Nigel is right.  It's 400 kw with VOAs Radio Aap Ki Dunyaa in Al-Dhabbaya.  One hears lots of mentions of VOA and Aap Ki Dunyaa and I've heard English for up to 30 minutes as well, often in slow English.  At times they were stronger than Farda on 1575 while I was in Masset......Walt
