For the past month or so, I've been enjoying All India Radio's General Overseas Service in English on 13695 between 1000Z and 1100Z. However, when I go to AIR's website, I don't seem to see that frequency listed as being one that's on the air at that time. It is, however, listed in the master spreadsheet from hfskeds.com. (Thank you for that resource!!) It also returns to the air around 1113Z but not in English. This morning, the reception is very good at my location in northern New England.

Anyone have any idea which part of the world this frequency is serving? I would guess somewhere in the south Pacific as the frequencies given at signoff just before 1100Z mention listeners in Australia and New Zealand. Happy listening!

This English listing is from the Primetime site

1000-1100 As India All India R. 7270, 15020, 15260,
15410, 17800
1000-1100 Oc India All India R. 13695, 17510, 17895


The abbreviation "Oc" means "Oceanea" or Australia, where your signal originated from supposedly from a relay there. But then this site-
http://www.short-wave.info/index.php

has your signal originating out of Bengaluru, India at 500,000 watts
I'm going with it beaming to the South Pacific like you said.

It's probably a typo or omission on AIR's part then. On their website they list 13710 as being in use but I've never heard anything on that frequency between 10Z and 11Z. Is anyone hearing anything on 13710 at that time? Thanks, ridgescan!
