Yep. I remember this one from the Newfoundland 3  in May of  '95 (I think it might
have been a NA first at the time.)

Here's the log:

     846   SOUTH AFRICA  R. Xhosa, Komga, 12 May 2315-2336, 2348-0003 -
     Phone-in pgm mainly in a local language but with occasional EE, hosted
     by a woman. On Braz-Bev and Southern-Bev, long, deep fades, but up to
     SIO 343

"You're outa here!" Remember fellas, George, Jean, and John?
