Voice of Korea 11710 kHz AM 1333 UTC 14 May 2017

1333Z 45343 S8 Song of General Kim Il Sung.  Signal is of pretty decent strength, but some local QRM on 25m.
1336Z 45343 S8 Song of General Kim Jong Il
1339Z 35341 S8 News in English. Between the QRM on 25m and the noise on their crappy transmitter, its hard to understand too much.
1353Z 25341 S6 News continues. Their signal is dropping.
1355Z 25341 S6 Music
1401Z Has pretty much dropped into the noise. Can see a carrier and once in a while hear a short bit of audio.

CODAR pulses noted on the 9435 kHz VOK broadcast from 1329z thru 1345z; 14 May 2017
Most times & frequencies posted are only an approximation.
Wishing the 1980's PopComm was still around.

9435 kHz during the English service was very weak. Now (1608Z) during the French service, its a pretty decent signal. 45544.
