RN da Amazonia 11780 AM at 1707 UTC 1 July 2020

Radio Nacional coming in with news as of 1710 UTC, followed by a song at 1713 UTC. Only remarkable in that I can't ever remember hearing this routine afternoon station at 10 a.m. local time before. Conditions in the mid-morning here are usually not favorable for this one!

That said, the signal's weak and just barely overcoming noise on the frequency; SINPO 35222.

It seems like their modulation's a bit off lately on 11780 kHz, including today. Not as bad as RHC's modulation, but definitely noticeable.
