BC-DX TopNews WWDXC #945 BC-DX 945

'Transradio Bln.' with Stereo at 20.96 kbps. ID and schedule for B09
announced at 06:24. Surprised at how well it came in from Europe at this
time of the night! One of my rare European DRM transmissions I've actually
demodulated.
7140 RUSSIA Radio Rossii, Dec 31 0132 - Another 'intruder' in the
amateur band. Very good reception with Russian New Year programming, // to
7320, 5940 and 7200. My Perseus database lists this as Yakutsk at 20 kW.
7190.083 SRI LANKA ?SLBC, Dec 31 0120 - Fair reception with what sounds
like a sermon. Initially I was sure that it was in English, but it's not
now for sure. The preacher may have given an address initially. My Perseus
database states SLBC in Hindi, so perhaps this is it. Confirmation needed.
At 01:27 there was definitely a hymn sung, (What a friend we have in
Jesus), so very likely SLBC which has many Christian programs. Indian
style music at 01:30, so almost certainly SLBC.
7200 RUSSIA Radio Sakha, Dec 31 0448 - Unknown language at armchair
levels. ?Indigenous programming, with the odd Russian word, like 'Rossiska
Federatsiya'. Also // 7140, but not 5940 or 7320 which are carrying Radio
Rossi network programming. Back into Russian mentioning Vladivostok at
04:51. Mentioned the Radio Company Sakha, so this must be the program,
Radio Sakha.
9770.19 SRI LANKA SLBC, Dec 31 0113 - Presumably them with pop music,
but very weak.
