[HCDX] Log Report for Al Muick 19 December 2011 - CORRECTION RE VOICE OF PUJIAN

[Albert Muick <radioresearch_field_operations@xxxxxxxxx>]

QTH:    Whitehall, Pennsylvania, USA
RX:      WinRadio G303e
ANT:     Wellbrook ALA1530P active loop


9705 - The station I reported as tentative, Voice of Pujian, Shanghai 
China, has been investigated by both myself and Ron Howard, and it seems 
that it is indeed the Voice of America from Tinian, Northern Mariana 
Islands, and NOT Pujian.  I have no explanation for hearing "Pujian" 
spoken twice, outside of completely probable coincidence as well as bad 
ears and wishful thinking.  Nevertheless, there always existed some 
doubt in my mind, and that is why I listed it as tentative.

I heard VoA's sign-on at 1300 today, with a much clearer signal than 
yesterday.

EiBi does list Pujian on during this time frame, but Pujian's own 
website http://www.yicai.com/news/2010/12/641494.html lists all their 
shortwave frequencies but this one.  I have been shown communications 
between other DXers stating that 9705 is a summer frequency, but EiBi 
and even WRTH 2012 do not show this.

This is disappointing, but it is yet another reminder to me to always 
make triple sure of logs and to mark things tentative when one is not 
100% sure.

Thanks to Ron Howard for his help and guidance in this matter!
