A19 First Week Monitoring Special

Here is my first monitoring report on A19 season beginning March 31,2019.
Due to very bad weather condition i.e.thunders,lightning,storms etc and  electric power disruption plus regular power cuts due to regular maintenance works of power company & road construction projects I could not monitor  the A19 frequencies of different radio stations as such and also post my monitoring observations etc. 

Here is a few radio  monitoring observations I made on April 3rd.
