UNID on 252.01 long wave, direct at home
1456 music, 1459 talking (in ?), 1500 time pips
not found on any kiwiSDR
1505 found on Twente SDR, sync on 252.014 but very weak there, music
1529 talking, M and W voices, 1530 music
trying more kiwiSDRs : so far having seen some traces, but no audio at all (not heard in Finland)
1550 signal fading down, or noise growing up : hard to hear the audio now
1600 time pips, W talking (reading the news? can't tell the language)

1607 mystery solved : that Algiers, talking in F, 1610 music, with low power only
1614 Alger Chaîne 3, news in F
