Hi there, great to copy a signal from Kuwait on medium wave. This is the Voice of America relay of course, but that's all good as far as I'm concerned. A catch is a catch!

Recorded in Oxford UK on 02/04/26 at 00:13 hrs UTC using a Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop antenna via a Bonito/NTi AntennaJet RF splitter. Thanks for watching and 73.
