    Nippon No Kaze - 7290 kHz

    Posted: 21 Feb 2022 03:51 PM PST https://vk5pas.org/2022/02/21/nippon-no-kaze-7290-khz/

    At about 1509 UTC on 17th February 2022, I tuned in to Nippon No Kaze, broadcasting in the Japanese language on 7290 kHz.
    This station is run by the Japanese government and targets any Japanese citizens that were abducted by North Korea and remain alive in the country. Abductions of Japanese citizens from Japan by agents of the North Korean government took place during a period of six years from 1977 to 1983.
    The overall reception of Nippon No Kaze was very very poor. There was
    severe interference from China National Radio CNR1 China broadcasting on
    the same frequency. There was also an obvious jamming signal on the
    frequency.

    SINPO32332
    Below is a video showing my reception of Nippon No Kaze.
