[HCDX] UNID Asian, Kahuzi QSL, Bangladesh, Laos, Pohnpei

["Dave Valko" <djvalko@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

UNID. ASIAN  7191.03  Jammer??  Fairly strong signal by extremely weak 
audio from 1236-1300+ with just nondescript mx but sounds kind of Chinese. 
(28 Feb.)

DEM. REP. OF THE CONGO  Got a reply from Richard McDonald at Radio Kahuzi in 
Bukavu, confirming my 26 Oct. 2007 reception on 6210.  In his reply, he 
states they were running 1044 watts at the time.  And that "We were on the 
air each Monday and Friday".  Don't know if that means they are presently 
off SW or not.  I sent a f/up message asking for some info about the current 
status.  I suspect they're off and have been off.  Richard goes on to say 
he'll be in nearby Altoona in early April for a missionary conference and 
hopes to get some help in "studio and broadcasting techniques".  If 
possible, I hope to meet him and gain more info on the station.  (28 Feb.)

BANGLADESH  LAOS  Anyone hearing Bangladesh Betar on 7250 (1230) or LNR 6130 
(1200) recently??  No sign of them here.  Only what appears to be Russia was 
heard on 6130 this morning at 1300.  (28 Feb.)

MICRONESIA  POHNPEI  PMA "The Cross"  Curious as to why they've been off. 
Checked their Web site and found they were to change their antenna and hoped 
to be back on in Jan or Feb 2008.  That's the most recent info I could find 
on their site.  Sent an e-mail to the person that verified my 2007 report 
asking their current status.  By the way, FM 88.5 is V6MA and SW 4755 is 
V6MP, according to their sked.  (28 Feb.)
