[HCDX] unid 1566

["Eike Bierwirth" <Eike.Bierwirth@xxxxxx>]

Earlier today (while looking out for Swiss Radio Gloria) I heard a station with Arabic chanting on 1566.80 kHz, on 3 Feb 2011, 2050 UTC. It did not seem to be parallel to AIR National Channel 9470, although that was very, very weak so I'm not certain about this. But then again, the mystery station signed off at 2100 UTC with no anthem played. If there was an announcement, I didn't hear it. Also it wasn't parallel to the webstream which you get for searching for IRIB Radio Iran, which is listed on 1566 in WRTH.

Any ideas? The .8 should be a give-away, but "MW Offsets" doesn't list such a station. If it's 2x783 I can't check that, 783 is covered by local powerhouse MDR Info.

Of course the station caused a serious het with the stations on 1566 proper, where I tuned after 2100 (with the het gone). Those turned out to be dominated by County Sound from England, one of the last good ole classic stations not "Golded", but not the 250 Watt test from Switzerland. That was heard elsewhere in DL so the quest goes on.
