This is a special live broadcast of the Easter Vigil Mass presided over by Pope Francis in Latin with Portuguese coverage.  The Mass is from the Vatican Basilica. This is one of several broadcasts occurring now (7315 Chinese, 7360 English, 9705 French, 9800 Arabic) but the only one I can receive.  Undoubtedly, this will be on for hours as this is a lengthy mass. 

1840 Mass in Latin with chanting priest with description/translation of mass in Portuguese on 11630.  Excellent reception.
1853 Pope speaking, just started receiving French commentary broadcast of Vigil Mass on 9705, fair reception.
1902 Arabic commentary broadcast on 9800 now being received, singing delivery of Exodus.  Good reception.
2015 Mass now heard on 7360 with English commentary.  Fair reception.
