Re: Malaysia, Radio Sarawak. [Ron Howard] Thanks very much, Amano, for the excellent Wai FM audio. Very enjoyable! Nov 16 - A different situation today at 1330 UT, with an open carrier on 9835 kHz., which I assume was Sarawak FM testing their transmitter, while today found Wai FM (11665) to be off the air (normally sign off time for both stations is 1400* UT, or a few minutes past. Also heard Sound of Hope (Taiwan) with one of their better days, on 6214.90 // 6229.95, with 6280 absent today. On my attached audio, as usual no time pips at ToH, but the normal ID ("Xiwang zhi sheng guoji guangbo diantai" - translation: Sound of Hope international broadcast station) is at 01:03, given twice (once by a man and again by a woman), then into the news.
