BBC Sportsworld 9915 AM 1825 UTC 5 February 2017 African Cup of Nations Final

[Ct Yankee]

Good reception...also heard on 15400 and 7445 but they will be cutting out at 2000z; 9915 should continue through regulation - 2100z.

The second most watched football game will be tonight in Houston, the most followed will be happening shortly in Libreville, Gabon where many of Africa's 1.2 billion will be watching or listening via shortwave (yours truly included) to the Finals of the African Cup of Nations.  Cameroon will be playing perennial power Egypt, who just keeps adding to their legacy by reaching the finals for the eighth time in 31 tournaments (at a rate better than the Patriots).
