(Kai Ludwig-D, dxld Jan 16) MONGOLIA 12085 Voice of Mongolia at 1000 UT with sign on. Typical interval signal then MX. SIO: 333. (Zeljko Crncic-D, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Jan 22) MYANMAR 5915 Myanma Radio, at 1512 UT on Jan 13. Perhaps a change in their schedule! Heard in vernacular with a lecture till 1517 UT; started segment of non- stop indigenous music and songs till 1529 UT; assume sign off announcement; 1530* UT. Noted the usual CRI QRM. This format is consistent for their Educational Service _ Distance Learning programming, which since mid-2009 ended at 1245 UT, followed by indigenous music and songs till 1300 UT This needs more monitoring to see if we can hear any lectures in English, as heard in the past. (Ron Howard-CA-USA, JPNpremium Jan 15) 5769.99 Defence Forces BC, Taunggyi, at *0030 UT on Jan 05, trumpet and talks, then slow music, frequency slowly drifting, fair. (Bernardini-ITA).

Only audible during musicalbreaks of Radio Slovenija on 918 MW, O=1-2. (Patrick Robic-AUT, dswci DXW Jan 20) PAKISTAN Pakistan seems to have revived it's out of use 250 kW transmitter, and it's been heard between 0830-1105 UT on 15100 kHz the last two days, and also on 9340 kHz at 1700-1900 UT. But 11565 kHz which should be in use from 1330-1530 and 1600-1610 UT only has a unmodulated carrier today, so maybe the transmitter is still not working correctly? (Noel R. Green-UK, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Jan 17) 9340 noted at 1800-1900 UT with 20% modulation only, 7535 was much, much better modulated. (wb, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Jan 17) Islamabad-Rewat has reactivated the 250 kW transmitter that had been off air since some time last year, although there still appears to be a problem with the modulation level at times. So these services can now be heard on two frequencies once again...
