I was hearing Vanuatu on 4960 at the same time you were listening to "Solomon Islands." at 1000-1030. Yellow bird IS ToH....

Subject: [HCDX]: PNG and Solomons heard

On 4/26/2000 between 1003Z and 1039Z hearing NBC, Port Moresby on 4890.001 KHz. Signal strength is –90 dBm, SINPO 44333. At start news, later discussion on adopting the electric chair to snuff some of the current brand of thugs that are apparently making PNG into something less than a tropical paradise. Also heard parallel to NBC during news were:

 

3325 KHz R. Bougainville

3395 KHz R. Eastern Highlands

3905 KHz R. New Ireland

 

These last three were much weaker but clearly parallel. Listened for all the other PNG stations with no success.

 

I tuned to the Solomon Islands and found them at 4960.005 KHz at 1012Z. Signal strength –110 dBm. Barely audible but a female in French was heard.
