I am listening to 17600 AM, I have tried to identify frequency with no luck.

Sounds like Indian/Arabic Pop,  no identification made in 20 mins I have been listening.

Best signal strength was S-7 here in Baltimore.

on 17599.97
1850 oriental music, can't tell if this is in Arabic (edit : in Kabyle language ?)
Most likely to be not for this forum !
1853 but now some waltz in unknown language
1858 raï  (pop music from Algeria)
1900 time pips, talking with music background, news ?
1903 M+W hosting, the audio is so-so, seems in Arabic
then two men about music instruments
(with 'le piano à queue',etc..  in French)

Maybe Algeria radio ? but the audio is low !
1912 more and more words in French amidst Arabic
definitely some Algerian origin (maybe in France)
1913 oriental song

Those Berbers with their Kif and carpets kicking out the jams.

When Algeria isn't under too strict of a regime,Radio Algerienne can be good listening.
