Title: Thazin Radio, Myanmar
Post by: VK3BVW on December 16, 2015, 2052 UTC

It was pleasing to catch this station a few days ago on 9590 kHz around 1030 UT. Don't often here it here! Signal strength was only fair but the clear channel helped make listening an easy task. The txer is at Pyin U Lwin, in the centre of the country. I made a short YouTube clip which you can find over at:

Has anyone Stateside heard this recently?  73, Rob VK3BVW

If I'm in a low noise location, I can occasionally copy Thazin Radio on 6165kHz during local mornings.  It's usually contending with CRI, but it can be quite readable.  If I'm at my usual QTH though, forget it.  Never heard it on 9590, at least not yet.  Nice catch!

I've 'caught' India on 9.870 & 9.380 the night before last actually @ 0108gmt., part of the AIR "Vividh Bharari" National Channel. I've always assumed the signals are hopping over the N. Pole. I've been monitoring Myanmar xmit.'s but so far nada. Also have been hearing India to W. Europe, 11.670 mostly.
