THAI LOGGINGS Here are my Thai loggings from LEM132 & LEM138 expeditions to Lemmenjoki, Northern Finland in November 1999 and January 2000. I would like to thank a few very professional Finnish dx-ers for giving their helping hand on my former questions. Thank you Ari Inkinen, Mika Makelainen, Jari Korhonen, Per-Ole Stenman, Hakan Sundman, Martti Karimies and Jari Savolainen for your most valuable comments! 621 17.11. 1600 TNBS Khon Kaen. Network programme, simulcasting // 1467 and 1530. LEM132 945 21.11. 2300 Thahaan Akart, Minburi-Bangkok. Station identification as "Sathani withayu Thahaan Akart ... Minburi ... AM 945 ...". LEM132 1197 17.11. 1407 Chor.Tor.Ror., Lopburi. No station identification but many commercials to Lopburi. The correct name may also be Chor.Tor.Lor. LEM132 1224 24.1. 1530 Thahaan Akart, Nakhon Sawan. Own programme as the station identification was "Nakhon Sawan ... AM 1224 kHz ..." (1224 = nyngpan-soongroi-jiisip-sii). In October Ari Inkinen heard on 1224 both Thahaan Akart, Chiang Rai (closing their local programme at 1502 UTC) and Thahaan Akart, Nakhon Sawan (closing at 1504 UTC). The Bangkok transmitter has moved to 1233 kHz. LEM138 1233 15.11. 1642 Thahaan Akart, Don Muang-Bangkok.

There is also another station in Thailand on 1269 kHz (Kor.Sor.Tor.Bor., Bangkok), but it has not yet been heard in Finland. LEM132 1494 18.11. 1703 Or.Sor.Mor.Tor.,Bangkok.
