7320, Radio Rossii, 0955-1005, Noted a male in Russian language comments. At 0958 and until 1000, heard a number of ID's as "Radio Rossii", by both a male and female. On the hour CNR in Japanese comes on the air using the frequency of 7325 KHz, blocking Rossii about 50 percent with splatter, which also reduces the strength of Rossii from a fair to poor. (Chuck Bolland, FL)
5920, Radio Rossii, 0923-0935. Noted Russian language comments, followed immediately with Russian choir type singing. No sign of WBOH yet. Maybe they are skipping over me? Rossii is armchair at this time however. At 0928 the announcer returns with more comments. On second thought, when the male is in Russian comments, I can hear a slight signal from WBOH under Rossii. At 0929, more music which is possibly from the earlier years before the 1917 revolution or maybe after? What was their recording technology like in those years, don't know? Checked 5940 for parallel and heard a weak signal there with same program. Rossii was good on 5920 KHz when I dropped it at 0935.(Chuck Bolland,FL)
