CHINA PBS Xizang (Tibet) off the air again today (April 23), on all
their frequencies, checked 4820, 4905, 4920, 6130 & 6200 kHz, at 0920 UT,
1004 & 1041 UT. Seeing as Ivo reported in WOR iog them on 9580 kHz,
at 0700 UT, April 22, perhaps on a different abbreviated schedule or just
different frequencies now?

RTC Kashgar-Kashi broadcast center of CRI, on refurbishing repair
action on April 15 til 29, 2021.
