Guangzhou VOLMET, China – 5673 kHz

At about 1142 UTC on Sun day, the 24th day of August 2025, I tuned in to Guangzhou VOLMET, China, transmitting on 5673 kHz.

VOLMET is derived from the French words ‘vol’, meaning flight and ‘météo’, meaning weather. The purpose of a VOLMET transmission is to provide weather information to aircraft in flight. (skylbrary.aero 20250)

Guangzhou VOLMET is in the SEA2 South East Asia region. (Dxinfocentre.com 2025)

Below is a video of my reception.
