Shortwave Broadcast / WBCQ 6160 AM 0400 UTC 17 JUL 2023
« on: July 17, 2023, 0428 UTC »
WBCQ 6159.930 kHz AM 04:00 UTC 17 JUL 2023

04:00 UTC - UNID (WBCQ or Pyongyang BS) loud and clear with English music segment. Actual frequency 6159.930 kHz.

I have not been able to find this program on WBCQ's program grid and in 30 minutes of listening there has been no announcements, hence UNID.
