A Few General Observations On AIR Regional Stations On Shortwave:
AIR Thiruvananthapuram on 5010kHz , AIR Portblair on 4760kHz are not audible/ audible with very poor reception now-a-days.And AIR-Chennai on 4920kHz sometimes audible with weak signal specially in the evening mix with strong signal of co-channel Chinese regional station.The signal this summer of AIR Chennai's another morning frequency on 7380kHz is not very good here often noisy.
And as reported earlier AIR Kurseong on 4895kHz & 7230kHz AIR Aizawl on 5050kHz & 7295kHz are still not on air as per my monitoring observation. AIR Bhopal is facing severe to moderate inteference on 4810kHz but on 7430kHz it is audible with good signal with no intereference. AIR Jeypore is audible on 5040kHz more or less satifactory signal specially in the morning.AIR Jaipur is sometimes audible on 4910kHz however not monitored regularly.AIR-Hyderabad is sometimes audible with fair signal on its another morning frequency of 7420kHz with sideband splatter & noise etc.But nothing audible on AIR Hyderabad on 4800kHz due to severe intereference from Chinese Regional Stations.
More Monitoring Updates etc soon.
