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.

Only BBCWS English Frequency Audible.. The Once All Season Reliable & Consistent 15310kHz

For several weeks here in my QTH Abhayapuri BBCWS is audible with good signal only on 15310kHz during 1200-1300utc and nothing audible due to poor signal and noise ,intereference  on any other frequencies as per my random checking on other frequencies during several time slots.Its just to remind you that  15310kHz  ome of the  long standing all season ,most reliable & consistent   frequency of BBCWS English Programs relayed from different transmitter sites located in Asia.Now only one hour transmission  from Al Seela Oman with 250kW of English Program aired from BBC.
Here is the audio recorded of BBCWS English at 1159utc on 5310kHz on September 10th:
