Harlan,

Greetings from the West Coast in Southern California. Hope that you and
the Family had a great Thanksgiving Holiday!

From your reception description I would suspect that you were tune to
India which mixes English and Hindi during that time period of 0700-0730
GMT/UTC. Also Radio Malaysia is scheduled in Englsh 24 hrs per day at 100kw
whilst India is at about 50 kw. Hope the info is fruitful to you.

Good Listening and DX often.

At 7:05 UTC I was picking up a broadcast at 7297 or 7298. I figured its
either India or Malaysia. At 7:08 its music, a female vocalist. I still
can't tell which language, but the music is fascinating. I'm thinking its
Indian rather than Malaysian. Can anyone confirm. (New music and the
instrumentation says Indian, too.)

Lots of static. I have to get a real antenna on this Satellit 800. Having a
shack in the basement of an aluminum sided house is not good.
