Voice of Turkey (via Emirler)

Voice of Turkey, transmitting via Emirler, was logged on 2nd of August, 2015. It was monitored from 17:50 to 18:06 UTC (really had no time then, but I've had to listen to them), on 9480 kHz. The programme broadcasted was on Turkish language. 

The signal was well recepted both in Croatia and Netherlands, giving a SINPO of 55555 - excellent signal on all accounts. No noise problems, no anything that could make this station stop broadcasting at the same quality it always does!

Classical Turkish music with baglama tunes was heard, male singing, female voice announcing the second song then, which was totally different to one heard before - this one was kind of modern, pop/rock song. As always, time ticks for 18:00 UTC were heard, and then, there were news. News were read by a male announcer, from paper, because moving papers after the news were read was also heard. (Actually, really nice to see someone using paper during broadcasting!) Later, at 18:06 UTC, dance song was heard, which was possibly the intro to the show after that. 

Reception report was emailed the same day. QSL card, schedule for Voice of Turkey and...something, arrived in the mail on 8th of September, 2015. Many thanks, VOT! (I actually watched Binbir Gece and Ezel, but I am going to say thank you on English, in order not to embarass myself.

For anyone interested, QSL depicts 30th of August - Victory Day, which occurs on 30th of August, commemorating end of the Battle of Dumlupinar, which ended at the same day. This battle was quite possibly the most decisive one for the Turkish War of Independence, which lasted from 1919. to 1922.
