R. Guinea 9650 kHz 2100z Dec 1, 2020
« on: December 01, 2020, 2106 UTC »
Some nice African highlife music with a decent signal into N. Indiana. FF announcers. Better signal than usual this afternoon.

Listening on DKAZ antenna and a DX888 SDR receiver.

I'm glad somebody is still copying Guinea. RHC's move onto 9650 had pretty much ruined any chance I have of copying them in Colorado anymore, unless I'm up around 0800-0900 (1:00-2:00am locally) and get a lucky opening at the same time. I might just have to start a nightly recording of that time and frequency because I doubt I'll have them at all this winter otherwise.

I've been checking right at 0800 UTC (when I'm up at that hour, as that's midnight here), and the signal's been barely audible. Maybe because it's not a "school night" tonight I'll check on it later that hour.

I did check around 2130 UTC today, before RHC took over, and had nothing audible. Even when Guinea was making regular appearances on my radio dial, it would almost never fade in before 2300 UTC.

I'm not sure how often Guinea is broadcasting anyway. There's been civil unrest recently which may be having an impact. I wish there were some online SDR's in Africa that would help to see if and when it's on. Radio Guinea has never been the most consistent broadcaster particularly when it came to their sign-off time.
