Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Dan Greenall, who shares the following recording and notes:
Broadcaster: ORTF Paris France 1970
Date of recording: 1970
Frequency: 9.620 MHz
Reception location: Ancaster, Ontario, Canada
Receiver and antenna: Hallicrafters S-52 using a longwire antenna
Notes: Here is the interval signal of the ORTF in Paris, France circa 1970. In my early days of shortwave listening, their nice clear French language announcement was good practice prior to tackling weaker African signals in the often static ridden tropical bands.
