Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Việt Anh Phạm, who shares the following recording and notes:
Date of recording: May 21, 2023
Starting time: 1530 UTC
Frequency: 15.67 MHz
Reception location: Northern Vietnam.
Receiver and antenna: TECSUN PL-380 with long wire
Notes: An audio recording of Wavescan- the international DX program from World Adventist Radio on May, 21st, 2023. It is produced by WRMI in FL, USA. This recording was made by connecting the mic in port of my Android phone to my radio (Tecsun PL-380) tuned to 15670 kHz with a 5-meter-long wire as an antenna. The signal was transmitted from KSDA- Guam with a power of 100 kW. My radio has a band-width changing function so I used it to optimize audio quality, which resulted in the audio being muffled a little bit at the beginning. QTH: Northern Vietnam
Note that the frequency announcement at the beginning did not match with the actual frequency I tuned to.
