English service, very good reception.  This is more a post for the frequency.  I don't believe I recall the BBC being on this frequency, at least in this time frame, prior to B21. From Ascension beaming toward South Africa.

1604 YL with news
1606 Sportsworld ID, YL talking about football clubs in Premier League off for World Cup qualifying
1608 Brazilian Grand Prix story
1610 Australia-New Zealand Cricket report
1613 Women's Premier League report
1614 Rugby report
