    Voice of Indonesia

    Posted: 14 Oct 2021 08:19 PM PDT https://vk5pas.org/2021/10/15/voice-of-indonesia/

    I then tuned into the Voice of Indonesia on 3325 kHz on the 90m shortwave
    band.
    The Voice of Indonesia is a part of Radio Reublik Indonesia which
    broadcasts all over Indonesia and abroad to serve all Indonesian citizens anywhere in the country and abroad. RRI also provides information about Indonesia to people around the world. Voice of Indonesia is the division
    for abroad broadcasting.


    The Voice of Indonesia was coming in relatively well. The signal was fair
    with moderate fading. There was no interference from adjacent stations. However it was the static crashes which made listening difficult at times.

    Below is a video of my reception of the Voice of Indonesia.

    Next in the log was the Voice of the Strait broadcasting from Fuzhou City
    in China on 4900 kHz.
    The Voice of the Strait was founded on the 24th day of August 1958, and is located in Fuzhou City in Fujan province. Its predecessor was the PLA
    Fujian Front Line Broadcasting Station.
    The station is owned by the Peoples Liberation Army

    The target audience is Taiwan. In 2015 the unit which operates Voice of
    the Strait was transferred from the Peoples Liberation Army General
    Political Department to the Peoples Liberation Army Strategic Support Force which is primarily responsible for psychological warfare operations against Taiwan.
    More information can be found on their website at

    The Voice of the Strait was coming in nicely with a good strong signal and minimal interference from adjacent stations. Fading on the signal was
    slight. There were some static crashes on the band.
