There are apparently a couple of Iranians on the
channel, Gary. Both broadcast Radio Iran, but
one of them only at certain times, and 1530UT
wasn't one of them according to MWList. It's
all pretty speculative based on wispy chimes....fun to dream.

With conditions like this, all that's left is to go over old recordings.
The morning of 24 December was pretty interesting 
in that Iran on 1098 was heard here.  Going over 
the SDR recordings, there are ever so faint 
traces of the R. Iran chimes also on 585 and 720 at 1530UT on 24 December.
Definitely targets for the next opening...

Quick, which one of these two is living in the past?
The one who is reliving the good ol' days of December 24th.
Or
The one who claims that he doesn't know how to do that.
Tough philosophical problem.
Probably an excuse for a drink and an evening of cogitation in front 
of the fire.  (even though there has been the tiniest hint of a 
carrier on 1386 on the radio....in real time)
