OMAN   I find this 9465 / 702 kHz BBC Persian service announcement
in the 04:30–05:00 UT time slot confusing; or have I misunderstood 
something?
Noted on Saturday Febr 7 at this time in ME/NE/Greece target Perseus SDR's 
remotedly:
EMPTY Persian content channel audio:
9465.007 kHz slightly odd frq of S=9+20dB signal level continously 
transmitting

a 1000 Hertz whistle tone at 04.35 UT,
last these 30 minutes outlet slot to 05.00 UT sharp switch-off.
Next channel is 9470.002 kHz service from China mainland domestic sce Urumqi 
Xinjiang province.
702 kHz - nil signal mediumwave channel noted at Doha Qatar at 04.41 UT Sat 
July 7.
Grey line at 04.45 UT in on Cyprus - Cairo EGY path
much far westerly in eastern mediterranean sea, but not in Saudi peninsula,
UAE nor Oman MW reception.
At same time observed religious US private shortwave station WINB on

I was wondering about the site for 702 BBC - as Iran already has/had a 500 
kW on 702;

what became of it? So BBC is Oman, surely not Saudi Arabia. Glenn

I checked at 2030 and I get it as 702.0000 kHz. Usual BBC/Encompass quality!
Best regards,
Mauno

Has anyone measured the offset on the 702 transmitter. I"d love to see
whether I can at least see the transmitter coming on at around 04:30.
