I'm curious about the programming prior to 0300, as that (0300) is the nominal 
s/on.  Was it a tuning signal from 0245 or programming?

Oh, and the site for the Taiwan broadcast is WYFR's site in Florida, not 
Sackville.

Picked up an unexpected Channel Africa broadcast in the Chicago area 
on 24 Jan 1995 on 5.955 Mhz (splatter from VofTaiwan/Sackville relay 
at 5.950 was so bad that I could get the Johannesburg, South Africa 
broadcast better on 5.957 Mhz) from 0245 UTC until the interference 
became unbearable around 0320 UTC.  This reception on a Grundig YB400 
portable with no external antenna.  Not sure this qualifies as 
"hard-core-dx", but it was unusual for my location (at least on my DX 
budget!).
