Earlier this week I appeared on ABC TV Australia's national morning show "News Breakfast" via Skype from the KSKO studios in McGRath, Alaska because of my reception of 7ZR 936khz Hobart, Tasmania, Australia.. a 10kw 2 tower directional from 13,000km/8000 miles away! 7ZR apparently has a null towards Brisbane which puts that null towards me too!
Here’s a recording of the TV interview, thanks to Matt Smith at WGSR TV in Reidsville, NC for recording this off the stream for me
And here's my audio of 7ZR 936! The first case of hearing ABC Hobart 936khz came right at the top of the hour (1400UTC Wed Mar. 24th) with the ABC Radio time pipes and then the top of hour theme music that leads into news. I think the news anchor introduces himself as "David Rollins". Here's an audio recording of what I heard: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rmVXYj6tmkDfSqmXxg9NdcOGYOTMeDAG/view?usp=sharing Theres a few 936's in Australia, but 7ZR is the only ABC Local Radio formatted 936 in the entire country and right before the news theme intro, I'd heard english language talk back type content. 6 minutes later at 1405UTC, I hear a female start reading a weather forecast, talking about a flood warning, mentioning coastal waters and a river. At 22 seconds into this recording, she says "Low of 15, top of 21... ABC Radio Hobart".
