Radio Australia 7240/9590

(1/1)

Zoidberg:
8/1/10
Radio Australia, 9590 audible but fadey; same programming on 7240 but can copy only by comparing with 9590.
1420z: Hearing Radio Australia on 7240.  Not sure how noteworthy this is, but if current sked info is correct I wouldn't normally be in the path for this transmission.  Chatter between OM and YL anncrs
1430z: Blues w/ slide guitar

Very tough copy, 9580 usually much stronger here in morning but off between 1400-1700.

cmradio:
Yup! RA is usually best at my QTH on 9580 as well.

(though 6020 does better for signal, but for some reason the audio is much, much poorer)

Peace!

Zoidberg:
RA on 9580 is usually pretty good here in Texas and often booms in at S9+ after dawn, even on an indoor antenna.  9590 is generally audible but much weaker.  I think this was my first catch of Australia on 7240 at that time, but I don't often check 40m for broadcasts.  I've heard 'em before in the 49m band but I hardly listen to 49m at all anymore - too much local RFI obliterating that particular band segment, roughly 6000-6300.
