Decent signal here in Tennessee, USA. African music S5-6.

2319: Mariaroza by Eddy Kenzo followed by back-to-back vocals.
2332: La Mirey De Fifi - Bibiane
0006: Makossa - A Extra Musica
0014: Koffi Olomide - Loi
0019: Louis M'Bomio - Edjing
0039: Bebi Phillip - Mama Loko
0043: The test loop has looped? Back to Mariaroza by Eddy Kenzo which they previously played at 2319.
0113: I either missed this in the loop previously, or break in ID and announcement then back to music.

Definitely playing a loop, this is the same song after Mariaroza that I heard earlier. Verified with the next song at 0052, this is a musical loop they are playing for the test. Hopefully they ID after it finishes again around 0128 UT.

Still going non stop at 0240.

0240: Enrique Iglesis - Miente
0245: Dorcas Kaja - Louons Le
0254: Titoye Bolabote - Ripachi Rabe Mama

Glenn Hauser posted on DXLD that the last real log of Radio Malabo in DXLD was March 2011.

Woo-hoo! One of my all time favorite SW stations back on the air.

Does anyone remember the days when they used to run personal ads and messages for their listeners in West and Central Africa during the breaks? It always reminded me of those dedication nights on AM radio here in the States in the 60's and early 70's. I hope things worked out for that couple in the Cameroon.
