Lesotho
NBS, Lancer's Gap. Easy to distinguish both
by programming ("Re leta thojane",
meaning "Night vigil") and the split
frequency. If you're able to get rid of RNE
with a decent directional antenna towards south,
639 is practically free from interference around
midnight, which is the best time to look for
this 100-kW transmitter. |

Radio, Kabale. Tentatively on the first date,
then with multiple station identifications for
"UBC Radio" on the second one. The
frequency is almost free for a few hours each
night, only BSKSA causing interference. |

Oromiya, Adama (Nazret) opens the day with a
xylophone melody. This is the most difficult
