ISRAEL/PALESTINE 756 A new clandestine station from Israel to Palestine.
Just got back from Alexandria - about 300 kms north of Cairo - which is my place for MW DXing. Checking 756 kHz which is always carring Almachrek Radio, the clandestine station from Israel to Lebanon, I noticed a new ID for a station ID in Arabic - "Rokn Alsout Alfalasteniy" - in English it means the "Corner of the Palestinian Voice", first time to hear it on June 22 with verious programs about the Palestinian current situation specially after HAMAS took over the rule of Gaza.
They transmit twice daily as they announce temporary on 756 kHz. Daily 0700-0800 AM 1500-1600 PM Jerusalem time - 0400-0500 UT and 1200-1300 UT - they also announced the Website http://www.pal-voice.org/
It's a quite starnge mix to be honest listening to the programs they repeat the morning transmission at the afternoon. Some of the programs are - between us - which sounded like a political commentary criticizing the current stiuation in Gaza and HAMAS. Also a program called - lady - dedicated to the fashion and make up stuff! with some English hits in between as well, some of the other programs are to the point and Abu Mahmoud.
The main announcers of the programs are the same announcers of Almachrek Radio and BTW I hear the same announcers on Program D of KOL specially the current affairs programs. same source!?
One more note WRTH 2007 stated that the sign on of Almachrek Radio is at 0430 UT, but actually it starts at 0500 UT right after the corner of the Palestinian Voice, same with the sign off when Almachrek Radio signs off at 1200 UT, the corner of the Palestinian Voice starts the afternoon transmission.
(later) I forgot to mention that they gave the following details for contacts:
P.O.Box 49371
Jerusalem 976041, Israel.
