People's Broadcasting Station Hunan, transmitting from Xiangtan (Changsha), China, was logged on 2 February 2015. A Chinese language broadcadt with station IDs, news and current event reports, as well as promotions/public setvice announcements (?) were observed from
23.00 till 23.30 UTC.
Reception on
4.990 kHz at 23.00 UTC was (SINPO) 34333 -- fair signal strength, faint CW (presumably utility) interference and slight atmospheric noise. Despite these conditions transmission was clear and audible. Signal weakened to 24322 after 23.15 UTC due to increased fading and atmospheric noise. By 23.20 UTC signal was not present as grey-line between Xiangtan and Malaysia had passed. By 23.25 signal was barely audible, athough carrier was noticeable up until 23.30 UTC.
