11.605 17:50 utc Kol Israel, Tel Aviv in hebrew (presumed- it sound a lot
like farsi to me) a woman reading what sounded
like news. Suddenly cut off. I then checked 11.585 and there was an english
broadcast of news read by a man, but the signal was not as strong or
readable.

I heard a broadcast from India in english as well, but as they got to the
point of a voice clip discussing an "islamic bomb" the broadcast was cut off
abruptly. Unfortunately I did not write down the frequency, but it seems
ominous to me that it got cut off at just that point , givne the state of
affairs between Pakistan and India at this moment.

Their site (http://israelradio.org/sw.htm) does not show it, but EiBi
(http://eibi.gmxhome.de/hp/bc-b03.txt) shows Hungarian at that time. Otherwise
the 'official' site shows no usage of 11605 at that time.

Maximus,
Though rocky at a few times in history, overall there have been good
relations between Iran and Israel. Though smaller now than during the
times of the Shah, there is also a notable Jewish population that
dates back to Persian times. Under current Islamic rule, you are
right though that life for Jews in Iran is not what you could call a
cozy existance.

Kol Israel is a decent catch, I haven't been able to get a good signal
from them in months - granted I don't try every day though. Have
never been able to receive Voice of Iran - is it even still operating?

that many jewish people in Iran - that can't be a comfortable predicament.

I have heard V. of the Islamic Republic but not recently, and never in
English - usually in Farsi. I remember hearing english from Israel when I
lived in The Federal Republic of Germany - my dad was stationed there. It
was the only foreign QSL I ever got. I don't remember what ever happened to
it S.

This may be of interest from the latest DXLD 4-020:

** ISRAEL. The 1800 broadcast is monitored on 9435 11585. They are
sometimes on 11605 instead of 11585. I have heard them on 11605 for a
full fifteen minutes, once they were on 11605 at 1800 but made a rapid
switch to 11585 a few minutes later. The 2000-2025 broadcast is only
monitored on 6280 here, at times the news content lasts for 15 minutes
and they fill with music until 2025 sign off in English (Edwin

You're welcome, note too that the frequency of 9435 that he has monitored for
English at 1800 is in contrast to that posted on the
http://israelradio.org/sw.htm site which shows 15640 instead.

I'll be checking them out at 1800 just for the heck of it.

They were alot easier to hear when they use to transmit on 9022 for
many years. I use to love their "casbah" tune internal signal.
