A strong signal with a clear ID from Conakry, Guinea, heard in Oxford UK on 08\/08\/16 at 18:04 hrs UTC using my trusty Panasonic RF-B65 and a 50 metre longwire. No SYNC of course, but once again, the vintage Panasonic performs very well for this personal-first reception. I do have another recording of this station using the Sony ICF-2001D, from which a performance comparison can be made at a later date. Great to hear Radio Guin\u00e9e by the way; I believe they had been off-air for around 5 years, until earlier this year.
