* Pulsing carrier (sounds like a “whoosh”) prior to restart @ 0506 with distinct dual voice after second numbers repeat (tones NOT in “artificial stereo”)
Found an unusual (weak) image at ~ 11450 KHz plus or minus 500 KHz or so (usually I monitor this program at – 910 KHz or ~ 13465 KHz); however, this is my first notice of an HM01 image on the 25 meter band.

# Verified @ 06UT on 10345 KHz


No further transmissions from HM01 have been noted here (or anywhere else as noted by the worldwide response to my previous requests for info from HM01 receptions since 07/10/2014. Until I can find another DX target, this is the HM01 Guy, potentially being forced into "retirement" (as he was from his original job) and signing off.

Wishing the world good DX, 73 and eventually HM02 as a successor to HM01 on worldwide shortwave. Until then, I still remain
