Hi Dave,
thank you for the good news. When AIR Port Blair signed off at 1730 on
4760.02 kHz, another carrier appeared and stabilized right on
frequency. I'll be checking if that is ELWA.

4760 ELWA Surprised to find a signal here with M preaching with
the mic positioned in the back of the room at 0704 t/in. At 0705
preaching ended and the studio M came on in Afro-accented English and
mentioned "beautiful celebration", and then at 0708:40 was shocked to
hear ELWA IDs clearly and somewhat slowly!! Then went into Hi-life
music. 0714 M returned w/more ments of "celebrate" and "celebration",
"broadcast". 0718 into choral singing w/M tlk voice-over saying
"hallelujah", and M pgm host came on at 0721. 0726-0731 "Oh Holy
Night" by W. 0732:05 ID. Ment of Liberia during tlk by M at 0741.
Was gradually and slowly fading but really took a nosedive between
0741-0751. Was still barely able to hear Afro singing at 0752.
Barely visible in the display at 0800. Very surprised and glad to
see them back. e-QSL already received from Moses Nyantee who says
they are testing 5:30-10:00 AM and 5:00-10:00 PM Liberia time. Will
start regular broadcasts on 1 January. (21 Dec.)
