Good to hear that you are still alive! Welcome back to the DX-world! The
old japanese junk still going strong?

I never heard Okapi on 6030, but deep in the night with a very weak
signal on 11690 kHz. Yes, they are very tough one to report, hours of
african music and a few pop songs in between. Never heard many
announcements, just the sung "Okapi"-Jingles every now and then.
