In the second recording the female voice is speaking Farsi/ Azerbaijani, so Iran.
But in the first recording there is Iranian music running through it. Listen for the distinctive yodelling at 8 seconds. So the male announcer is something else.

Re: UNid 936 2200z
A pity to leave this one languishing and I can only offer a crumb of help. The male voice sounds like one of the announcers at All India Radio's national channel English service. Why AIR South would be transmitting the national channel at that time of night is a different matter. Well perhaps that w...

Hi Patrick, It's frustrating not being able to check Chinese stations' live feeds these days even for a listen to the style of delivery at a given time of day matching an old recording.

Re: UNID 891 kHz 28SEP2018 2157z
Bonjour Patrick, A stretch of African English heard at 16sec: "thank you so much, we are going to [?] definitely" plus the type of music makes it very likely Lesotho's Ultimate Radio. Watch out for false leads if you are looking for the station online. There is another Ultimate in Africa, not the sa...

Re: This Evening's Orientals
2nd South Asian CR on 1602 is Desi Radio from west London. Just had a look at the daytime MW band on an Oldham remote receiver. I was surprised how much is going on. Probably not a suitable receiver for DX work because of Moorside Edge and Ashton Moss nearby but for regionals and locals it gives a u...

Re: Medium wave shut downs in UK
As Tim says Merseyside is still with us, tuned in on a couple of remote SDRs. Carlisle Radio 4 was hovering underneath at just-audible-sometimes level on one of them. If you're on the east coast then one or more of those Dutch 1watt licensed stations could also be possible at 1485. Does that count a...

Re: 819 unid mixing with Egypt
Hello John (and also Jon), Even though Tajik and Farsi sound the same to most ears I'll go with the distinctively formal presentation style of Iran on this one, including the Chopin-style piano interludes they seem to like on all Persian stations. And mention of "Iran" at 0min07 and at 2min43. Possi...

Disturbed conditions? A view to the south could be useful. New Kiwisdr remote receiver in South Africa: http://kiwi.twrafrica.org:8073/ It's much more lively than the older SDR in that region. Good for checking what stations are alive there as DX possibilities. 1377 is not giving any signs of TZA Ra...

Hi Nick, At 0:03 onwards I'm hearing "chaque jour de l'été ... sur Europe 1" and into music. But there isn't a match to the female voice on the Europe 1 archive for their Sunday morning programme "Je rêve donc je suis". Have you got an exact time for this extract? 87.8 Europe 1 Villefranche-de-Rouer...

Re: China on MW in August!
Not forgetting the several Xinjiangs on 1494. Yes heard one of them in Belgium during July. But it's only this week that I've had the echo indicating that more than one of them is getting through. Sign on at 23:00 if I remember correctly.

Re: Who is this one ?
Given the frequency, the time and the slavic sounds it has to be Bulgaria Horizont. Only one word to grab on to and look up: second recording, 19secs: dispasna (dispose). I find it really difficult to differentiate between Russian, Belorussian, Bulgarian and Ukrainian. No, not difficult but impossib...

Re: 87.6 Arabic - ID sounded like 'Suriye FM'
Nick, at your 3m04 I'm hearing "Chérie FM" as part of a sentence in Arabic. Why I'm hearing it is a different matter! I'm not aware that the brand owners NRJ Group use that name in, for example, Lebanon. Other portions of the recording are throwing up Balkan languages, and other fragments which are ...

Re: Another UNID on 107.4 with Muslim px, Albania?
Have to agree with the placing as BIH or nearby. The chant is "Mubharak Ramazan" or Happy Ramadan. Followed by a sermon with intro in Arabic and then the local language of Balkan type. Religious terms are given in Arabic. Very unlikely that there would be a station ID within a sermon. Nice catch! Ed...

Re: What are some "easy" MW DX stations to look out for?
No mention of easterly stations so I'll kick it off. For early evening to mid evening in the current season. 1566 HLAZ Jeju South Korea Even easier, the various Armenias: 864 - 1350 - 1377 - 1395*. These are hardly DX in wintertime but the summer challenge would be to see how early they propagate to...

Re: 95.2 unid think Turkish 0915 23-07-17
That'll be Turkish with its distinctive "-u" word endings (I don't know how to spell it but that's a close as-heard attempt). Where it's coming from is a different matter of course.
The brief singing at the top might be Turkish but it's too short a sample to be sure.
