RPK: Rayuan Pulau Kelapa. Same as above. All times in UTC. DX LOGGINGS-------------------------------------------------------  3214.8  RRI Manado. At 1028 telephone conversations and local 
pops. Local news              
entitled "Warta Berita" was heard at 1100. Poor.              
(Jan 26, 2002, Juichi Yamada, JAPAN)  3325    RRI Palangkaraya. Has been touching a solid S9 
on my HF225 with the 90m             inverted 
Vee tied at the feeder point to a coconut palm at 50 feet on Dua              puloh 
January from about 1420 until s.off at 1500 with Love Ambon. This              Sunday 
evening they have been playing some beautiful music, vocals, mainly            
 Indonesian versions of The Old Rugged Cross and similar. Absolutely 
dreamy             music, 
a fusion of the East and West. I lost power at 1400, so hooked my old              car 
battery and I got stuck on 3325 kHz. It is all dark in the house with some             moonlight 
filtering through the lace curtains that my xyl has put on the              window. 
Looking at the digital readout and dimly lit S-metre, does something             to me 
listening to Indionesians. I know it is the same with many of us, cross              
cultures, continents and all.              (Jan 20, 
2002, G. Victor A. Goonetilleke, SRI LANKA)  3344.8  RRI Ternate. Closing announcement with Love Ambon and 
closed down at               
1359. Fair.             
 (Jan 24, 2002, Juichi Yamada, JAPAN)  3960    RRI Palu. Off at 1533 after LA, but the music 
is not that great compared to            
 Palangkaraya.             (Jan 20, 
2002, G. Victor A. Goonetilleke, SRI LANKA)  3976.1  RRI Pontianak. At 1405 local news. The ending music was 
"Bagimu Negri"             
 which was different style of the ending of Jakarta news.Suddenly 
signed               
off at 1531 without Love Ambon. Fair.              
(Jan 24,  2002, Juichi Yamada, JAPAN)  4925.0  RRI Jambi. Reactivated. Heard at 1427 with local pops, 
SCI, Jakarta news               
relay, and local ID. Fair.              
(Jan 30, 2002, Juichi Yamada, JAPAN)  7171.4   RRI Serui. Heard at 0910 with lagu Qasidah, 
reading of Holy Koran, at 0930               
local news or regional news from Jayapura (not confirmed), local pops.               
Best signal at 0920. Still heard at 1100. Poor.
