UNIDENTIFIED. 891 kHz, August 7 at 0430, JBA carrier hetting 890 WLS.
Has got to be the hi-power ALGERIA, and a welcome sign of `the season`
coming back, storm and line noise levels low enough to audiblize a
regular. Did not perform yet a total 9/kHz bandscan for more of them.
Nothing on 531, another Algerian spot, but noise level is worse at
bandbottom. However, 891 still audible at 0628! = a sesquihour after
Algiers sunrise today at 0459 per gaisma.com - that`s pushing it but
maybe possible to the west with 300/100 kW. Hope there not be another
off-frequency Cuban here as spoiler. Probably too weak to DF it (Glenn
