R. Brasil Central 4985kHz 0113UTC Jan 21

[Paul B. Walker, Jr.]

SW LOG OF THE WEEK! Radio Brasil Central 4985kHz 10KW Non Directional from Goiania, Brazil at 0113UTC Jan 21st in McGrath, Alaska. Heard with a BEATLES! Song. I got lucky, because this song really stuck out of the noise, I recognized it immediately and was able to match it to the 7.5KW 11815kHz beamed at 359 deg az.

I don't have much of a problem picking up the 7.5kw directional outlet on 11815 in the spring and summer here in Alaska but I've never heard the 10kw non directional outlet on 4985 until 3 weeks ago.


The signal was kinda weak, noisy and fadey (what do you expect? LOL) but I recognized the song immediately and was able to match it to 11815 which had a better but not great signal at this time.


Here's the audio:
