4845 MAURITANIA R. Mauritanie 7/20/09 0715-0725 Om talking in Arabic. But it doesn't matter much because modulation is so poor. The signal goes from severely over-modulated to grossly under-modulated, so much so that the audio could barely be heard. Copy impossible. And this comes after Nouakchott returned to 4845 with a brilliant signal. (Barker-PA) 



5995 MALI RTV du Mali 7/20/09 0645-0705 Tuned in to what appeared to be a short radio skit, with several Om's and Yl's speaking in vernacular. Play ended at 0653 with music up and under while Yl spoke in Vernacular. Then a long dead air pause until 0655 when bright tribal music was played. Yl was back at 0659 speaking until 0700 when a French-language jingle came on as the station ID. Then into News by Om in FF. Much more lively and tighterÂformat than usual for Radio Mali at this time of day. (Barker-PA)
