Radio Kuwait has been an easy get on 15540 since returning to shortwave, even at my workplace in a quasi-industrial area with limited window space for reception. I have not been able to receive them at 1800z (on until 2100z) today but was wondering if that had to do with the Eid El-Fitr Holiday (end of Ramadan)? However, the Sultanate of Oman is coming in, in Arabic, on 15140 am so they are not observing the holiday.
Anyone else having trouble receiving Kuwait?1829z On air...music to news. Announced tomorrow will be first day of Eid. Should be an interesting listen on June 25. (Holidays are determined by moon sighting committees, respected elders go into the desert and determine by the moon when the holiday will be. A son who earns his daily bread by working in Abu Dhabi was told to extend his vacation in the States through this weekend as the holiday would be declared sometime this weekend.)
