At 16:00 UTC (09:00 AM local, and just getting light), 3 broadcasts are scheduled: Marathi from Madagascar on 17730 with lovely South Asian music and mentions of AWR. Not quite armchair copy, but close. Telugu via Guam on 15670 at poor level Urdu via Trincomalee on 11955 and 17565. The latter at fair level. 11955 had a nice OC at 16:00, but it went off about a minute later, so either someone else or a transmitter problem. No carrier there when rechecked at 16:10 UTC.
I decided that I'd better start listening to AWR before they leave the air in B24 (apart from Guam). At 05:00 17790 is very strong with Arabic programming (via Madagascar), while 15560 is at good level via Issoudun in Hausa. Two for two so far. 73 from Masset, where the ionosphere continues to recover!

A correction. 15560 is via Moosbrunn, Austria (?soon to close). At 06:00 I heard a nice AWR sign on with IS and English announcement and into French on 15220 via Nauen, and 17790 via Nauen (with a bit of a rumble...I suspect that the Madagascar transmitter was still present with an OC). Both very good. Also heard at 06:00 15560 in Arabic via Moosbrunn. Also very good. There's literally a hundred frequencies and times to check during a 24 hour period before the end of A 24 on October 26th. 73, Walt
