Title: Radio Vanuatu 5040khz Apr 1 0830UTC
Post by: Paul B. Walker, Jr. on April 01, 2023, 0852 UTC

Noted at 0832UTC with a Radio Vanuatu announcer talking an Australian about something, I didn't catch what.. its late here. S9+10 or better signal and off schedule. 3945 should be on now. I haven't heard 7260 in awhile but I haven't looked for it really.. However, 5040 sounds strong and better than anything else ive heard form Vanuatu in awhile

I didnt note SIBC 5020 on either but as well, the last6 few times ive heard them, 5020 had modulation in the toilet.
