Radio Vanuatu monitoring observations

Here are some observations of Radio Vanuatu using the Brisbane KiwiSDR in Australia on 5 September (times are UTC):

3945 kHz: heard from sign-on  1845 to 1958 and then moved to 7260 kHz

7260 kHz: heard from 1959 and presume they remained here for just one hour to 2058, then moved to 9960 kHz

9960 kHz: heard at 2120, so presumably they had moved here at 2059 ...

Additional observations 06 Sept 2024

A further update on Radio Vanuatu for 6 September 2024, again using the Brisbane KiwiSDR (times are UTC):

7260 kHz: found them here at 0628 tune-in, so they had switched from 9960 kHz sometime earlier in the day (Vanuatu time). Off at 0658 as had been noted in recent days.
3945 kHz: started up here at 0659 as expected.

I did a quick check on 7260 kHz at 0645 using the Wessex KiwiSDR but nothing of note seemingly reaching the British Isles at this time.
