I am sorry this winter season, I could not monitor the medium wave broadcasting bands as such.But I time to time monitor it in the morning hours 0000-0330utc.
And of some of the radio stations which usually I have well heard here both domestic & our neighbouring countries and beyond...during March 2025 with audio files links plus brief notes where possible.
RIG used :Yaesu FT 891 on battery ,inverted V dipole 40/20MB dual bander as antenna
Place Of Monitoring:Abhayapuri(Assam)(India)
On March 23rd..
Radio Nepal Pokhara & Kathmandu
Radio Nepal Pokhara 684kHz:
Radio Nepal Pokhara was not heard by me for several months perhaps due to poor reception etc or might be I did not check the frequency at all.But March 23rd, I heard fair to good signal of Radio Nepal Pokhara on 684kHz after a long break.Please check the audio file recorded around 0023utc by clicking the link..
Radio Kathmandu 792kHz
Later I shifted to 792kHz i.e.Radio Nepal Kathmandu around 0024utc.And it was great to hear loud & clear signal of Radio Nepal Kathmandu.Let listen to the audio recorded..
Radio Nepal Kathmandu 792kHz 0024utc
The same program was aired from both Kathmandu & Pokhara.It was news and current affairs report related.Actually, I guess Radio Nepal airs programs from Kathmandu and others medium wave stations (Pokhara etc)of Radio Nepal relays.There may be some other programs by their regional stations at their respective studio.I am not sure.I have not heard other Radio Nepal medium wave stations for a long time like Surkhet on 576kHz,Dhankuta on 648kHz,Dipayal on 810kHz & Bardibas on 1143kHz.
Let me monitor from time to time and will post any fresh loggings.

Myanmar Radio 729kHz 0024utc In Place Of Akashvani Guwahati Mahabahu
In place of Akashvani Guwahati Mahabahu on 729kHz, I heard as sometimes happened, it was Myanmar Radio on 729kHz.Let listen to the audio clip recorded around 0026utc
For a long time Akashvani Guwahati Mahabahu remains off the air in the morning from time to time and backs on suddenly late in the morning.Myanmar Radio (In Burmese)sometimes audible on 729kHz when Guwahati was off the air in the early morning hours but Myanmar Radio disappeared ( I mean its signal HI HI) abruptly after sometime.In the evening its the Myanmar Radio which is audible often and giving severe interference to Akashvani Guwahati on 729kHz. I will monitor from time to time to give you updates on 729kHz.

Bangladesh Betar On Medium Wave:General Observation
The following two regional stations of Bangladesh Betar in Dhaka on 693kHz and Rajshahi on 846kHz are well heard here.In the early morning hours Bangladesh Khulna on 558KHz is well heard.But as time progresses the reception becomes noisy and signal becomes weak.I guess majority of the programs of Bangladesh regional stations nowadays has been relayed from Dhaka.But like before,I heard in recent times locally produced programs also via Rajshahi & Khulna.Bangladesh Betar Dhaka on 819kHz is also audible here sometimes with good reception.
More observations/radio news/monitoring reports etc from time to time.
