{built up in 2017 year by Ampegon Switzerland already, and were mothballed for 5 years and paused in the meantime, wb. }

... which started last month continue to be observed, however, the observed schedule is quite different from HFCC registrations and highly variable from day to day. Currently, as of late August, only the Bechar site appears to be on the air. Transmissions from Ouargla had low audio modulation when first observed.
