[HCDX] Need help with this one!!
Sept 2, 07:40 UTC -- 08:15 and again around 10:30 UTC (not my usual
listening hours! 2-4 + am MDT)
I was tuning around and hit 6190 and manipulated down to a listenable
signal at 6188. No such thing at EiBI or ILG. So I searched for 6190
and found something between 0700 and 0800 for the BBC Ea/So Africa which
wouldn't work because I tuned in again later. Then I came across BLR
Belorusskoye Radio 1 to E Eu. (0600-2200 EiBi)
Problem is I never heard a voice the whole time I listened, even around
0800 when you would expect to hear an ID.
At the start, I heard two instrumental, "live" performances which I
recognized as ...Louis Armstrong! Followed by "What a Wonderful World"
(also live version) and another ballad. Then, after this Armstrong
segment, another segment started immediately -- almost a New Age sound
to it, a woman singing, very repetitive melody, some bell like sounds.
Then another, similar sounding piece and a third....I tuned out at this
point, then tuned in again about 10:30 and heard something sounding like
a lush, string instrumental piece, possibly slightly "oriental" in flavor.
Reception was very noisy, but pretty strong.
Any clues?? Was I really listening to BLR out here in Southern NM?? (I
have been monkeying around with a 75 foot wire, but haven't really made
a final installation. It's up only about 15 feet and sagging between
another pole about 7-8 feet high)
Also, I received a QSL card and sticker today from Radio Vlaaderen
(Belgium).
Thanks,
Gloria
