9950 at 1431-, Golos Pravoslavya Aug 29. Phone quality programming, back again on a Friday with ID in Russian after some church bells briefly. Into their usual religious programming. Very good reception otherwise.(Walt Salmaniw-BC-CAN, DXplorer Aug 30) Tue/Fri operation. (wb)
Lithuania
6055 Radio KBC (Netherlands) relay 2132 UT. Bewildering, almost indescribable melange of DJ shouting (mostly in American English, at least once in UK English, several times in Dutch), endless jingle IDs, mention of Radio Caroline and what sounded like Radio Atlantic, snippets of generic rock music, high-tech sound effects a classic dog's breakfast.
Nearly impossible to get more than a word or two here and there because the signal was so incredibly choppy. Did manage to catch "we are the mighty KBC" at 2152 and "All over Europe ... the might KBC" at 2202, when I finally tuned out, suffering from severe audio fatigue. Sked is *2130- 2230* per EiBi.(Bob Hill-MA-USA, DXplorer Aug 30)
