Former Voice of Greece 15630//9420 Jun 12, 2013 2310Z

The former ERT has been shut down, but the old Voice of Greece frequencies are still active[1]. I guess they're no longer a licensed broadcaster and fall into the category of pirate or clandestine. Definition of those seems to align it toward clandestine. Don't know what they're calling the station these days, as I don't know Greek.


2310Z 15630 // 9420  YL talking in Greek
2313Z 15630 off air.
2313Z 9420 still going.  SINPO 45444. RTTY in the USB, as it frequently is.
0000Z 9420 45444 RTTY stopped at some point in the last 47 minutes. Was listening to the LSB, so I didn't have to listen to that thing.
0057 9420 45433 No more audio, dead carrier.
0100 9420 45433 In the dead carrier, heard some sounds from Windows (logging in, I think). Then more dead carrier.
0102 9420 45433 Couple of YLs talking now. They're in mid conversation when the audio came up.



[1] 15650, 15630, and 9420. I have also seen reported 9935 and 7475, but I have not heard anything there.

Also heard on 15650 & 7450. They aren't quite keeping to the former VOG schedule but almost. right now they are booming on 9420 & a check of remote receivers shows they are weak on 15650 at 2:15z

At 0226Z, very weak (just above the noise) on 15650. Nothing on 7475 nor 7450.
