OK, but, but the QRM conditions may be entirely
different by then. Must we assume all these are direct, no relays? 2300 is also
a new time for any English broadcast, rather late for Africa; 1400 had been only
on 9640 for SE Asia in A-16. Times are not explicitly labeled UT, but probably.
Are they also carrying out such tests in other languages? (Glenn Hauser,
