Voice of Korea

A recording of the North Korean shortwave radio station Voice of Korea. Really bad reception, lots of static, voice from another station audible too. The main transmission begins at 0:46 with the station's interval signal (creepy). Then at 1:45 the North Korean national anthem plays (I have a separate recording of this). There is then some spoken word (in Korean, I should advise) from 3:25 'till it ends. Picked up and recorded with Twente University's online radio receiver (thanks Alienxxx)
