 message from Julius Hermans, Breedenboek, 
Netherlands; 
Baltic waves: 
I think I just heard the new R Baltic Waves from 
Vilnius. On 612 Khz at 17.28 UTC-january 15th- I heard an IS (a simple, but nice 
synthesizer-tune) and ann's by a man. I think I heard a ID in Belorussian which 
sounded like "Radyo Balticske Walle". After the next IS, there was an ID I think 
in Lithuanian(it sounded indeed like: baltijos bangu radijas). All difficult to 
read due to heavy co/ch QRM. In Eurolog(http://geocities.com/Colosseum/Park/3232/Eurolog0100.htm) 
I read that they do a relay of R Polonia in Belorussian at this time. The IS was 
not the same as that of R Polonia's external service as heard on Dave kernick's 
magnificent site, so I think they use their own IS. Is there anyone in the 
region who can confirm my monitoring??  A few minutes later I lost the 
station in the enormous co/ch QRM I had on 612!!  By the way when searching 
for Baltic Waves last night jan. 14th I noted that the timepeeps of R Bosnia 
Hercegovina on  612 were 3 seconds too late at 2000!! 
Baku: 
I had a nice clear signal from Baku this afternoon 
at 1500 UTC on 1476 Khz MW, nx in Russian often mentioning 
azerbaijan.
