Indeed, at times I would even say it sounds like a local - well, OK, a semilocal 🙂 - yet it's 4000km away! Anyway, 53dB SNR in peak is not too shabby, isn't it? 😉
The broadcast I heard consisted of Nasheeds, or Islamic hymns, interspersed with presumably religious talks alternating between Pashto and Dari. All full-blown religious stuff, similar to North Korea, except NK's "god" is Kim Jong Un 🙃
