R. Saudi 9650kHz Modulation Problem
« on: September 24, 2022, 1955 UTC »
I've noticed this going on for months now that 9650kHz will have modulation akin to cuba or china, you can tell audio is there.. but you can't make any of it out.  
 R. Saudi is usually a very good broadcaster, the only other time i've heard issues is when 15170 or 15285 are on air after 0300UTC and sometimes the audio gets distorted and breaks up.

Here's what 9650kHz sounds like:

Do you think they could be buying used parts from Radio Cairo? It's a short flight across the Red Sea.
