The tsunami must have spared Diego Garcia as they are heard here up and running
on 13254 at 1330. Male operator this morning. Signal not quite as good as it was
at a later time yesterday, but hopefully it will improve.

Just curious. Do you have one of your Drakes constantly monitoring Diego
Garcia? I monitor the GHFS frequencies and have only stumbled on DG active
once.

No, it's just that they are usually active in the mornings and I'll park the R8
there for a couple of hours. They are audible here on an almost daily basis.

13254 is of course not a 'regular' GHFS frequency but it is one of the Diego Garcia
'discrete' frequencies.

Shortly after my initial log this morning they once again switched to a female
operator, just heard here most recently at 1510.

Correction: 1610 rather than 1510

Right you are. I should have said 'military frequencies'.

Saw your correction on time. Specifically, what is the time range that you
'park' on 13254.

Oh, usually from 1300 on, it just depends on what I have going on here at the
time.

You're likely in just the right spot for DG to fade in around sunrise
your local time for a while. I find that sunrise in either one's home
area or target area is a good time to hear stuff that you wouldn't
otherwise. I can get a lot of stuff from the Middle East, like Saudi
Arabia's domestic service, around sunrise Middle East time (0300-0400
GMT). And around sunrise my time (1500 GMT or so) I get a lot of stuff
from East Asia like the Chinese domestics and Radio Free Asia,
occasionally I'll get AIR or Iran too around that time.

I not only hear them around sunrise, but for hours after that. And at times
throughout the day.
