Title: Solomon Islands - Cyclone Freq Change
Post by: VK3BVW on March 16, 2015, 0834 UTC

9545   SOLOMON ISLANDS. SIBC - Honiara. Operating here all day with cyclone news and general programming, noted on Mar 15 at 1900 and Mar 16 at 0820. This freq is currently being used full-time instead of 5020 kHz because of its better range throughout the Pacific. Clashes with VOA's Mandarin co-channel occupancy between 2200-2300 and 0000-0100, but good signal at other times.

Also at 1800 to past 1900 with non-stop music (probably on auto pilot) in their early morning period. S9 signal and occasional IDs.
