["Walter (Volodya) Salmaniw, MD" <salmaniw@xxxxxxxx>]

> A nice opening to Africa Saturday morning:
>
> TANZANIA (ZANZIBAR)  11734.08  Very good reception of Radio Tanzania 
> Zanzibar at 16:49 in presumed Swahili.  Very distinctive music, into 
> network news from Dar Es Salam at 17:00.  Nice ID at 17:10 as "Radio 
> Tanzania Dar Es Salam", then into local programming with lots of mentions 
> of Zanzibar.  Reception the following day not nearly as good.  (Salmaniw, 
> Victoria, BC 27 January).
>
> ANGOLA  7245  Looking for Tajikistan yields at least 3 stations on at 
> 1700, with Radio Nacional Angola winning out today, over CRI in Russian 
> (which dominated the next day), and presumed Dushanbe a weak 
> third.  Angola in Portuguese, with many mentions of Luanda.  Didn't hear 
> any parallels.  Last winter 11954.7 was heard regularly.  One of the three 
> is a few Hz off, causing a low pitched het.  (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC 27 
> January).
>
> ZAMBIA  6265  Radio Zambia One with fish eagle IS, drums and into talk at 
> 1558.  Poor to fair. (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC 28 January).
>
> MYANMAR  6570  presumed Defence Forces Broadcasting station, weakly heard 
> at 16:11.  Best to use LSB to avoid some Ute interference on 
> USB.  (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC 28 January).
>
> IRAQ  11784.95  Radio Iraq International with Quran, then Arabic talk at 
> 16:10.  Fair reception.  (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC 28 January).
>
> JORDAN  11690.02  Radio Jordan at 16:13 tune-in, with excellent reception 
> with a request music program.  Modern western music.  "This is for all you 
> guys from Radio Jordan".  Program is called LC, for Listeners Choice. 
> (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC 28 January).
>
> KOREA (NORTH)  3559.87  Radio Pyongyang in English at 
> 16:21.  Poor.  Parallels heard:  6520.18 (fair), 9975.07 (fair, over 
> cochannel).  At 1644 heard their French program on 11709.84 slightly 
> overmodulated.  Very good with philatelic program.  (Salmaniw, Victoria, 
> BC 28 January).
>
> UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, DUBAI  13675  UAE Radio Dubai at 1625 with filler 
> music, due presumably to studio link break, as cut into English news at 
> 16:31:30.  Very good.  Described riots in Zanzibar resulting in deaths of 
> 22 people.  Parallels 13630 was fair, and 15395 under cochannel VOA News 
> Now (this frequency not usually heard hear).  Temperature in Dubai this 
> day was only 63 deg F.  Back to Arabic service at 16:34.  (Salmaniw, 
> Victoria, BC 28 January).
>
> INDIA  15140  AIR in Russian at 16:35 fair to good, well over cochannel 
> (?HCJB), with news in Russian.  (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC 28 January).
>
> GERMANY  15485  At 1700, wonderful reception, with only a very minor echo 
> of programming of the General Board of Global Ministries of the United 
> Methodist Church.  Very regionally sensitive programming.  Started by 
> emphasizing the sad occurence in Congo with the death of Kabila.  This day 
> was dedicated to mostly music, both inspirational and secular.  All 
> sounding appropriate for Africa.  This program is in stark contrast to the 
> "Americentric" programming of other religious groups.  Worth listening 
> too.  Parallel 13810 was good, with some splash from 13815.  (Salmaniw, 
> Victoria, BC 28 January).
