1335 man speaking in Japanese
1340 woman singing "Do-Re-Mi" from "The Sound of Music" in Japanese

Furusato no Kaze (A Wind From Home) is a Japanese language broadcast from the Japanese government to Japanese abductees in North Korea.  I had never heard this broadcast before I heard it this morning - and I did not know of it.  It definitely brought a tear to my eye when I recognized the song the woman was singing - as it isn't difficult to understand why it was chosen for the broadcast.

Signal was weak here, at only about S6, with steady QRN

Thanks very much for your research and response.  Interesting suggestion about Voice of Oromo Liberation, which I have heard once before on another frequency.  Maybe we'll catch it again....
