Re: [HCDX] [dxld] unID 11615 1900 Arabic/Somali



U.K./UAE   Was also Somali via WOF same data on 11740 kHz in A-12 season.
In WRTH spring 2012 .pdf supplement 11740 WOF under Radio Damal in Somali.

Radio Damal, The Voice of the Somali People.
WRTH 2013 p507:
produced in the studios of KBC in Kenya.
Financed through Peoples Republic China government funds...

In B-12 was once requested also, but on 11970 kHz, but now moved to
11615 1830-1930 48E,48SW WOF 300 122 from 17 Nov 2012 Somali BAB=Babcock FMO

similar Radio Damal broadcast via Al Dhabbaya UAE site was requested
on 11970 kHz too, but later at 1930-2130 UT. Still wrong on Aoki list.
11970 1930-2130 48,52NE,53NW DHA 250 225 Somali UAE BAB

UNIDENTIFIED. Hi Glenn, I was listening to a broadcast in what I thought
was Arabic with chanting from shortly after 1900 to 1929 sign off today
[Dec 16] on 11615 kHz. HFCC shows this as a broadcast brokered by Babcock
in Somali with an unidentified broadcaster. Any idea who the broadcaster
was and whether it was Arabic as it sounded or Somali has listed in HFCC?
(Steve Handler, IL, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Steve, I searched my e-mail and consequently DXLD and found nothing
recently to explain this. I do see that EiBi has it in his list as an
unknown station, 1830-1930 via Woofferton. Nothing in WRTH 2013 either
under target broadcasts to Somalia, Ethiopia, or even Eritrea. On a hunch
I also checked out the schedule for IBRA Radio (WRTH 2013, under Sweden).
They do have an Arabic broadcast at 1900-1930 daily via Woofferton on
9535. Should check whether that is // (or moved). Something for further
monitoring (Glenn Hauser, ibid.)
