Radio Philipinas World Wide English Service:

Radio Philipinas now-a-days broadcast on English from 0200 to 0330utc on 17820,15640 & 12010kHz.The reception has been excellent overall on 17820 & 15640kHz buy 12010kHz sometimes the signal  strength varies from good to poor and lots of noise there..The reception was good on 12010kHz overall on August 18th.

Radio Romania International(RRI) English

0300-0356utc 11825kHz

Usually the transmission faces interference as a form of sideband splatter from a broadcasting station broadcasting on 11835kHz slight to severe from time to time specially when music on air on that station.

But on August 18th..around 0311utc onwards for a few minutes, I received good signal with very minimum or no interference at all.

Here is the link to the audio recorded:

Radio Taiwan International (RTI) English

0300-0400utc 15320kHz 

RTI English is now free this season from side band splatter from Radio Japan NHK World  in Japanese broadcasting on 15325kHz as the latter has shifted its frequency to other frequency.But sometime moderate to severe  jamming  type noise has been observed this season and makes it difficult to copy the audio contents. But for several days, no such noise observed though signal of RTI English not very strong and comes with fading.On August 18th , I recorded an audio of RTI English around 0315utc..

Here is the link to the audio file:

Bhutan Broadcasting Service(BBS) on 6035kHz:

Sorry their shortwave service on 6035kHz is still inactive for several months for all services.Here in my place I sometimes receive good signal of their FM Relay on 90.0MHz and perhaps another service of their local language transmission on 98.0MHz.

The programs on 90.0MHz looks like relay of shortwave service ..0400utc Nepali Service beginning and 0800utc their English Service beginning hour.

More inputs/monitoring updates etc soon.
