Re: [HCDX] Sound of Hope Radio?
Glenn --
Thanks for the query. The listing I mentioned is the new WRTH bar-graph, which shows Sound of Hope as 1 kw. The TOH fanfare sounded nothing like what I usually hear from CNR1. (I've heard CNR1 on top of Taiwan on 5010, and it's regular CNR1 programming, parallel to 11710.) So I don't think this was CNR1.
Also, signal level seemed not inconsistent with what I would expect from a 1 kw
signal on 20 meters from that part of the world on a good day, based on
my time as an amateur radio operator.

> Art, What listing is that? Aoki shows SOH with 0.1 kW and as with ALL SOH listings a * next to the frequency, which means accompanied by a hi-power CNR1 jammer, far more likely what you heard. It is necessary to distinguish SOH from CNR1 by //s, programming style, if not understanding Chinese. Otherwise the assumption should be it is a jammer without evidence to the contrary. 73, Glenn Hauser
