There are no plans to shut down 153 kHz but they are reducing the power output at night.

According to a source close to National Radio Laos in Vientiane, the station previously broadcasting on 567 is no longer in operation. It appears that Luang Prabang 705 is the only MW frequency still broadcasting from Laos.

Asfalttelegrafen 1494 kHz. 
In a brief e-mail from Torleif, the operator, tonight is the last chance to hear Asfalttelegrafen on 1494kHz. Apparently he has received 100 reports from around Europe since he came on air on 23/12 from Ludvika, Sweden. He will be on-air from 2000UTC to 2300UTC tonight (4/1) after which his licence will run out. 
I have tried unsuccessfully on a few evenings to hear Asfalttelegrafen and although the Sony’s sync detector locks onto a signal it never really climbs out of the noise. The only station I managed to briefly hear on 1494kHz was on 26/12 at 2135UTC when 60s oldies were heard, not really Asfalttelegrafen’s 70’s rock.

Will try one more time tonight….

Surprise, surprise! Can report that we – Radio Northern Star -are back on 1611 and 5895 kHz thanks to our new technician. Since the regular internet connection is down due to construction work on the broadcast site, the solution was mobile streaming.
Have also improved the sound settings on 1611. Should therefore sound better. We expect more downtime, but will try to be back!

After 2½ years of work, my Chinese AM ID Database is nearing its completion, including nearly 40 hours of station audio, top-of-hour IDs and time pips for nearly 600 stations (almost the entire Chinese-language AM band), network and frequency lists, and recordings of often hard-to-identify Asian languages and dialects.
In addition to that, last-minute plans to include the entirety of the Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau AM bands are already underway.
I have been working on this project for 40 hours a week for the past two months to ensure it is
completed next month and can admit it is perhaps one of my biggest contributions to the radio
hobby, certainly since my last major project in 2017. Plus, it is a full documentation of the Chinese
AM band as it begins to meet a similar fate as other country’s AM bands have. Hope you all can
enjoy this project in the near future. http://www.chriskadlec.com/radio/china-database
