5004 kHz - R. Madagasikara - Horrible Audio
« on: February 25, 2017, 1014 UTC »
5004.16v (approx!)  MADAGASCAR. R. Madagasikara - Ambohidrano. First noted at 1755 with horrible audio. Talks and boppy music. Suddenly switched to a tuning tone at 1758 for around 20 seconds (there's nothing like a good tune-up in the middle of programming!!). Several short breaks in transmission, between 1759 and 1804. Terribly wobbly carrier heard when listened in SSB mode, indicating a malleable approach to channel allocation. Some hum on the audio (probably transmitter fault rather than a studio audio issue). Several more short breaks in audio at 1820. Well down from it's usual 5008-5011 frequency range. Don't mistake this as the highly irregular and only occasionally heard R. Bata! Feb 24.
