Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Dan Greenall, who shares the following recording and notes:Broadcaster: Radio Clube de Mocambique 1973Date of recording: 1970Frequency: 4.855 MHzRecpotion location: Ancaster, Ontario, CanadaReceiver and antenna: Realistic DX-150A with a long wire antennaMode: AMNotes: An infrequent visitor to my listening post in the early 1970's, Radio Clube in Lourenco Marques used a modest 25 kw of power but could occasionally be heard here in southern, Ontario, Canada on 4855 kHz around 0400 or 0500 hours UTC. Their signal had to travel over 13,000 km to reach my receiver and had to fight through the constant static crashes typically found on the 60 metre shortwave tropical band. They commonly aired programs of pop music, and in this brief recording, circa 1973, you will first hear the tune of "In the Summertime." It is followed by the LM chime and identification in Portuguese beginning "Aqui Portugal Mocambique..."
