KOREA SOUTH. 3985 // 4880 // 5995 (best reception) // 6245 // 6350 // 9095, Echo of Hope - VOH, at 1524 UT, Apr 3 (Sunday). Expected
to hear the the usual weekend English lesson with the reading of a "Harry Potter" story, but instead the start of the audio feed, normally
heard on weekdays, from a TV program called "Wang cho bo yeong-eo" (Beginner's English); intro theme song is the "Party Will Come
Alive" by Wizardz Of Oz (with Ruben Martinez); the usual intro with announcer saying "English trainer" and gives his name ("Mayu"), then
the woman announcer says her name ("Mini"), then they both say in English, "Good morning everybody"; today's lesson - "When will this
package arrive? Three days. Do you have anything faster?" VOH still with their normal four hour program loop. Is this an anomaly or a
scheduled change?  

7200 (ex: 6115), National Unity Radio, 1444 UT, on Apr 3. Good reception. Last month, on 6115, checked for their usual language lessons
that had often been heard in the past, but seems they have dropped them now.

April 4 (Monday) observations:

KOREA SOUTH. This week's frequencies: 3980 // 4885 // 5990 // 6250 // 6348 // 9100, Echo of Hope - VOH, at 1105 UT, with
news in Korean.

Voice of the People: 3480 (good reception as usual) // 3910 (also good reception, which is a rare occasion, as it was not jammed
today!
) // 3930 // 4450 // 6520 // 6600, at 1110 UT.

7200, National Unity Radio, 1158 UT, heard heavy N. Korea jamming (not noted yesterday!); *1200, NUR started with strong signal,
so not terribly affected by jamming.
