Re: [HCDX] [IRCA] Arabic? on 1430 - not CHKT

["Jim Pogue" <jpogue@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

After another listen the programming sounds much more south Asian than
Arabic. I have a short mp3 clip recorded at BOH I can e-mail if anyone wants
to listen and see if they can tell who it is.

DXpedition to where? A few big-city candidates that may or may not have 
been carrying something in (or sounding like) AA would be WNSW-NJ, 
WEEF-IL and KMRB-CA. KMRB is all Chinese, so probably not them. WEEF is 
a mix of Italian, Assyrian, Romanian, and who knows what. I think WNSW 
is mainly Korean. That's about it for anything ethnic on 1430, except 
for Vietnamese on KVVN-CA and misc Asian on KJAY-CA.
