Yes, sure it's too late for Australia at that time. I heard it the night
before, too, at 0130. On the other VFO of AR7030 I had the clandestine
al-Mustaqbal on 1575 kHz, because I was reporting it. So by accident I went
comparing the two, and the programming matched! It was very weak and I
think it is not a real transmitter of Al-Mustaqbal but rather a spurious
signal caused by transmitter malfunctioning. Where should we report about
this spurious, to CIA?!

73, Mauno

PS. Congratulations for the fine victory of NORDX98, Gert!
