[IRCA] mysterious 1476 carrier; was: 1575 daytime carrier

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

I should know that fact, Mauno, having visited Dubai a couple of 
years ago, and not hearing it then.  Of course, it still is listed in 
the European-African MW Guide, and that was the only Euro reference 
that I had with me for this mini-DXpedition.

Still, it is ironic that a mysterious carrier on that channel 
switched off a few minutes after the listed sign off time for a 
station that is not there anymore.

best wishes,

Nick
