Comment: 963 is one of several frequencies I usually check to see if there is any TA activity taking place. Early Saturday evening nothing was showing up. When I checked back later @ 0229 UTC I found 2 signals coming in. Two signals were unusual. Tunisia always before came in alone. Tom
963 TUNISIA Tunis 0229 to 0325 UTC 11/10/2024.. A weak and sometimes intermittent signal coming in on 962.9997. From previous loggings and the MWList posts, the 962.9997 frequency belongs to Tunisia although the weak signal strength was atypical of them. TPK-WI
963 UNID TA 0229 to 0325 UTC 11/10/24. A weak intermittent signal on 962.9979 that had 2 brief peaks to about 10 dBs over the 960 USB level. It was faded and gone for good by 0307 UTC. MWList has 2 frequency possibilities. 50 kW Tete Mozambique @ 962.9976 (12/31/21) and 950 watt London England @ 962.9982 (10/23/24). Tete's LSR was @ 0305 UTC. London's was @ 0710 UTC. I'm favoring Tete. TPK-WI
