(Albert Muick-AFG, hcdx Aug 26) 15240 IRIB Kamalabad in Hebrew 1200-1230 UT, S=9+30dB powerhouse, // 13685 Sirjan site S=8-9. (wb, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Aug 27) 7220 IRIB Sirjan in Armenian at 0300 UT Aug 31, strong and clear audio at S=9+25dB level. (wb, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Aug 31) IRAN 702 / 3985 Voice of East Azerbaijan. After some discussion on the German-Austrian A-DX group, the conclusion seems to be that the Tabriz regional station of Iran's IRIB is broadcasting a special Ramadan programme on shortwave and mediumwave. Check next night; this is all somewhat still presumed status. Ramadan runs until around 9 or 10 September this year. Presumably the schedule is: 2330-0130 UT 702, 1323, 3985 kHz 0130-0430 UT 702, 1323 kHz Programme "Avbashdanlyq" (Voice of East Azerbaijan - IRIB Tabriz) in AZERI language. Plus FM outlets 90.4, 100.9, 105.5 MHz and Intel 902 satellite. The website announces this broadcast for the 2009 Ramadan, and the current observations indicate that the same is true in 2010. They say that the programme runs from 4 to 9 a.m. (=UTC+4.5 hrs), and "120 minutes" on the "overseas" service (that would be 3985 kHz). Thanks to Google Translate for improving my Farsi. 3985 kHz has about the strength as the Voice of Croatia on the same frequency. Reception on 702 kHz is good here in Leipzig-Germany, // 3985 kHz, but Patrick Robic in Austria reports a different Iranian programme which might stem from the Bushehr transmitter near the Persian Gulf, so beware which one it is you are getting. Yours truly observed 3985 kHz to disappear at 0130 UT though hard to tell for sure with the Croatian powerhouse interfering. 702 kHz is optimum reflection via the Kiashar transmitter on the Caspian Sea, usually in use for the external service for the Caucasus region. 4mast directional antenna 37 24 36.33 N 50 00 44.51 E (thanks wb) 1 km westerly 4mast of regional sender 1251 kHz. Culture program on 1521 kHz is probably off at present. 3985 kHz is registered for the scrapped Mashhad site - wb says in fact it's been via Kamalabad for 3 years; AOKI lists Sirjan.
