Voice of the Broad Masses of Eritrea - Programme 1 was observed on the
off-channel mediumwave frequency of 950 kHz (WRTH indicates this is an
'alternative frequency') at 18:20 UT on 31 July 2017. Typical HoA music followed
by vernacular news and sign-off with choral anthem, finishing at 18:32 UT - tx
switch-off was at 18:36. This was monitored with fair to poor reception via a
remote web SDR in Oman. Signal on (parallel?) 7150 kHz was too weak and noisy to
confirm ID in the time available. Incidentally, this Oman rx gives good
round-the-clock reception of the Saudi-based Radio Sanaa surrogate on 11860 kHz
- it can be accessed via the portal at www.sdr.hu (David Kernick via dxld
