Few weeks ago, I was listening to a Hausa language broadcast from China Radio Int. I noticed they’re playing Indian music. Chinese propaganda station playing Indian music for Africans is the most random thing I’ve ever seen.
I’ve also seen Radio Taiwan playing American music. Maybe it’s a common thing for state owned shortwave stations to play foreign music, but I don’t understand the point.
I’ve noticed a bit of that myself, although I find Radio Havana Cuba to have some of the strangest things going on at various times - probably due to some of the issues they’re facing. Incorrect schedules, mistakes between SW broadcasts and intelligence broadcasts etc. Some of the fun things to look out for when hunting on HF!
