[Swprograms] Alert: Voice Of Turkey 9830khz



VOT uses this frequency solely for their 2200 to 2300UTC Âbroadcast in English to Eastern North America,.

Well, at least 3 times in the last 2 weeks, I've heard the broadcast continue after 2300UTC.

The interval tune without speech will play out after the English language transmission ends, and about 2256, it will hiccup and restart with speech in German saying "This is the voice of turkey". and then a broadcast in German will commence.

German isn't scheduled at this time of day, it happens much earlier.

The transmission in German will continue anywhere between 15 and 45 minutes before being abruptly shut off in mid sentence.

I suspect that the Turksat 3A or Turksat 4A satelitte feed from Ankara is what feeds the Emirler Shortwave transmitter site. And, when the english broadcast ends on the satellite next up is German and since the 9830khz transmitter doesn't shut off, that's what we hear.
