** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. R. Malabo, Malabo, 6250, July 24, *0502 - OC noted
beginning 0456 until brief sign-on announcement by female speaker in

the hour, brief music into news bulletin at 0606 UTC. (Jordan-TN)
** GUINEA. (tentative) R. Conakry, Conakry, 7125, July 24, *0624-0704* -
noted again, this time at sign-on with fair carrier signal. Very weak
modulation, but above threshold audio was noted more reliably,
especially after 0645 UTC which corresponds with sunrise at the
transmitter enhancement. Lively male speaker in French, brief music
selections. Station off at 0704 UTC, not sure if this was intentional
sign-off or not. (Jordan-TN)
