July 13 - An enjoyable day of Radio Vanuatu reception; 7890 (harmonic) // 11835 (harmonic); suddenly on at *0559 UT, with
song already in progress (The Doobie Brothers - "Listen to the Music"); 0602-0605, "News Update" in Bislama; 0605-0659,
DJ in Bislama playing C&W and pop songs in English (The Police - "Every Breath You Take," Hank Williams - "Jambalaya -
On the Bayou," etc.); 0700-0719, news/sports in Bislama. Port Vila sunset was at 0626 UT; moderate QRN (static). Only a
carrier heard on 3945; CNR2 (11835) only produced low level QRM today. Between 0630 and 0650, heard them play their
distinctive station's singing jingle four different times ("Radio Vanuatu" and "Voice of Papua New Guinea"). BTW - The 4th
harmonic on 15780 was not heard.
