Good signal, but audio has some distortion - I'm going by the British DX Club's listing for their Pakistani service (thanks for posting the schedule recently Shortwave_listener!).

7050 LSB - antenna facing North/East

Signal is weak, but audible.  If I was a Ham I'd probably be annoyed at my spectrum getting used for this tx, but as a swl listener I find it interesting and this is the first time I've been able to hear it directly!  Started listening at 21:30z; around 22:30z signal began to pickup & by 23:00z it was coming in very good.

Don't sell the Palstar; I still have my R30CC (mine is an early version w/12v option on the coax) and will never part with it.  I know the radio has mixed fans, but it's a great receiver for what it does.

Wow; thanks for the detailed info Ron!  Do you have a recording of the Interval Signal I was hearing that sounds like a fog horn?

9105 AM - antenna facing West

Fair signal with low noise conditions - I don't know korean & didn't hear any english (that I could discern at least), but recorded the two IS's at 0900z and 1000z.  The 1st recording has Simon & Garfunkel's 'Sound Of Silence' (flute version?) before the fog horn sounding IS.
