5040.4 Myanmar Radio, Yangon 1150-1222 UTC. Jan. 30. Haunting local vocals and interesting flute melodies. Burmese talks. Poor with flute music once again doing a nice job making this enjoyable. (D'Angelo, PA.HCDX)
5040.4 Myanmar Radio, Yangon, at 1435 UTC on Jan 28, heard often but today especially good with female talking in minority lang. A bit of splash from AIR-Jeypore, which was also good. Off at 1500 UT, but carrier stayed on the air.
5770.0, Defence Forces B/Cing Station, Taunggui, at 1445 UTC on Jan 28. triggered by the good signal on 5040.4 kHz, tuned in and better than usual rcpn also on this one. At 1513 UT, Burmese (?) version of Seasons in the Sun (Bee Gees) male announcer (Finn Krone-DEN, wwdxc BC-DX Jan 28)
