Dan Records New International Service from Rádio Nacional da Amazônia

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor Dan Greenall, who writes:

Hi Thomas:

The SWLing Post reported the start-up of an International Service from Radio Nacional da Amazonia in Brazil back on March 27.

Since then, I had been intending to give a listen, and finally, last night (April 18 UTC) I was able to do so. It is only a brief 10-minute segment in both English and Spanish and runs roughly from 0150 to 0200 UTC:

Use Up/Down Arrow keys to increase or decrease volume.

I made the recording (above) on 11780 kHz through the use of a Kiwi SDR located near Rochester, New York. It was a bit of a tease, I think. 15 minutes in each language would be nice.
