PAKISTAN 7535 Radio Pakistan, (pres) Rewat, in Urdu, at 1720 UT with
live speech excerpts. Seems to have some modulation problems, together
with strong hum. Improving with time. 34432 on Dec 27.

Since the recent change of frequency for English news at 1600-1610 UT from
7510 to 7535 kHz. Radio Pakistan has also begun to use 7535 kHz instead of
7530 kHz for Urdu to WeEurope at 1700-1900 UT. I thought it might be a
mis-tune, but obviously not so, as it is heard daily.
And the old Rewat transmitters are still in use with no sign of anything
from the new installation at Karachi Landhi.

PALAU Re PALAU, trying to find T8WH broadcast center area.
Hello, I think you now have the precise information about the location, to
know exactly where to go on another attempt?
Reminds me of IBB's Lampertheim plant. It is located in a forest and just
invisible. One has to know the access road and go to the gate, or to know
the location of the antenna field and walk through the forest. It should
be almost impossible to find the site by chance.
The former 100 kW mediumwave site of SFB/RBB in Berlin was literally
invisible, too; even immediately at the fence it was difficult to find a
place where more than the tip of the mast was visible.
And as I said, my experience is that locals just know nothing about
transmission facilities in their neighbourhood. Of course they are aware
of prominently visible antennas, but even then they not necessarily know
what they are good for. As an example, ask a local about the Wertachtal
transmitter plant. No doubt they know this mysterious installation but
have no clue what it is, rather associate it with spy activities than
broadcasting.

9965, unusually something between WRMI and WWCR, Dec 25 at 1517 UT, strong
signal with American preacher, "there is a mighty God". I consulted the B-
09 Broadcasts in English booklet from the British DX Club I keep next to
the radio instead of defunct PWBR, and hunting thru the 1500 UT listings,
soon found T8WH in vernacular/English. At 1535 UT recheck it had changed
to Korean.
Once the computer was on, today's Aoki agrees it is T8WH, daily in English
until 1530 UT, then daily in Korean from 1530 UT with Nippon no Kaze
clandestine; the azimuth switches from 318 to 345 degrees but I did not
notice much difference here.
