Title: BBS Bhutan 6034.995 kHz. 1157 UTC April 24, 2016
Post by: Ron - Calif. on April 24, 2016, 1512 UTC
BHUTAN. 6034.995, BBS, from tune in at 1157 till
suddenly off the air at 1317 on April 24. Remarkable
reception! First: BBS was much stronger than PBS
Yunnan (China) also on frequency and second: BBS
ran about one hour past their usual cut off time (rare!).

1157-1202: EZL pop music.

1202-1221: Announcer in vernacular with the normal
breaks for brief indigenous instrumental music.

1221-1224: Indigenous music and singing.

1224-1256: Chatting on the phone in vernacular; mostly OM
(in the studio) talking with young girl; long conversation; very
nice segment, as the audio via phone was much stronger
than the studio audio. My audio at  https://goo.gl/L6eSTx  .

1240-1245: Musical break.

1256: BBS indigenous music mixing with PBS's music.

1300-1314: Announcer in vernacular.

1314: Indigenous instrumental music. 1317: Went off the air.

Thanks very much to Jim Young for the exact frequency, as
he also noted the stronger than normal BBS signal today. An
eventful day for BBS reception!

BHUTAN. 6035, BBS, 1140-1200, May 11. PBS Yunnan
(China) mixing with BBS; usual format; PBS suddenly off at
1200 before their ID; leaving BBS in the clear; keeping with
the new PBS schedule (ex: 1500*).
