Subject: [HCDX] Tue Morn
Bolivia, 6134.80, Radio Santa Cruz, 1015-1030, Just a weak signal with a male in steady
Spanish language comments. Conditions are poor this morning on all bands here. At 1021 a female joins the male in comments. As noted, the signal was weak and poor. (Chuck Bolland, December 21, 2010)
Cuba, 6180, Radio Nacional de Venezuela, 1030-1045, Noted a program of music and Spanish comments with live ID's by a male. Signal was good. (Chuck Bolland, December 21, 2010)
Peru, 6019.287, Radio Victoria, 1045-1055, With another very weak signal being covered
with a Het, noted a male (probably David M.) preaching in the Spanish Language. At 1047
possibly music presented, but can't be sure? Signal was threshold. (Chuck Bolland,
December 21, 2010)
Peru, 4824.453, La Voz de la Selva, 1100-1110, With a threshold signal here, noted a male
in Spanish comments. (Chuck Bolland, December 21, 2010)

Subject: [HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs December 21, 2010
** BRAZIL. 11780, RNA, Dec 21 at 0626, already on the air earlier than usual, guitar music, habitual morning DJ with reverb. SSOB by far, rivaled only by WYFR 11530, 11580.
5990, Dec 21 at 0828, very strong with romantic Latin music, similar to RNA 11780 but not //. Presumably R. Senado, another 250 kW transmitter at Bras?lia. WRTH still does not attempt to publish hours for any Brazilian SW stations, but Aoki shows 0850-2100 for this ZYE773. Eibi shows 0750-2100, so go with that: probably starts an hour earlier currently due to DST. These bigsigs are missing from HFCC. Fortunately the other 49m frequency, 6185 for RNA, remains inactive and clear for XEPPM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. Since I was up for the total lunar eclipse (yes, it was, and quite dark), made a quick check of a few things Dec 21: at 0830 attempted to hear any trace of HCJB which should have just signed on, under RHC 6050, but could not. RHC Spanish // 6060, 6120, 6150, overkill in the nightmiddle. Arnie is sticking to his guns on 6050 where HCJB is stuck with all those fixed-tuned Galcom radios, Commies vs Christians!
Anomalies: RHC 13780 absent Dec 21 at 1450, supposed to be on until 1500 like // 13680; CRI relay 13740 remained as usual. 11760 dead air Dec 21 at 1507 tho 11690, 11730 and 12040 were nominal. Modulation cut on 11760 at 1509 as El Hugazo was manifesting himself guestfully on Voces de la Revoluci?n (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CYPRUS. 9388-9413 approx., Dec 21 at 1444, over-the-horizon radar pulsing presumed from here in more or less free space, with WWRB 9385 not yet on, and far enough from V. of Greece 9420 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. 6250, Dec 21 at 0620, S9+12 with YL in Spanish. We only hear this sporadically and suspect it is only on the air sporadically. Frequency matched Vatican on 7250, but if I had gone by comparing to MW 1250, would have concluded RNGE on the lo side (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GREECE. 9420, VOG, Dec 21 at 1443, Greek talk and music, good signal, back to normal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MAURITANIA. 7245, ORTM, Dec 21 at 0825, fair signal. Two hours earlier only a weak carrier, suspected something else (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA. 9690, Dec 21 at 0823, strong but hummy signal in presumed Hausa from VON as scheduled in WRTH 2011 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PHILIPPINES. 9430, Dec 21 at 1525, a cappella rendition in Chinese of Hark! The Herald Angels Sing. We wonder how far the lyrix stray from the English in order to make it work in Mandarin. Applause, announcement and then chorus with ``We Wish You a Merry Xmas!`` in English. This is FEBC`s extensive Chinese service which also puts quite a good signal here into China [non]. Earlier there was a lot of English talk being Chinesed (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TINIAN. 9385, thanks to late switch by WWRB from 3185 to 9385 at 1508, I was able to hear another weak signal on 9385 at 1506 Dec 21. First guess was Burmese, but listed as Korean from R. Free Asia, starting at 1500, 250 kW, 329 degrees. HFCC also has R. Pakistan in Urdu until 1530 on 9385, but WRTH 2011 shows that on 7530 and 11575 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 3185, WWRB with Brother Scare on later than usual, Dec 21 still going at 1439, 1457, and not on 9385. Finally switched at 1508. Meanwhile I got something else on 9385; see TINIAN (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** WESTERN SAHARA [non]. 6297.1, SASASAM [? As we explained before, Arabic ID is ``Huna el-estudiohaay al-markaziya al-wataniya, Sowt al-sha`ab a-Sahraui al-mukafa``, as reconfirmed in WRTH 2011], Dec 21 at 0832, S9+18 Arabish talk with utebeeps aside, still in plenty late on Solstice, no help from the lunar eclipse which had me up at this time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ZAMBIA. Recently there has been some dispute whether 4965 CVC is on the air all-night. I was hearing a weak signal there at 0035 and a stronger one with gospel-sounding music at 0247 December 21. This is a separate service from 1Africa, 9430/13590/9505, also transmitted from Zambia, but not //. In WRTH 2011 you find the latter under South Africa, where the studio is (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Peru, 3329.58, Ondas Del Hualaga, 1030-1045, Noted a male and female in Spanish comments. Comments are very expressive. Signal is very poor mixing with CHU's
broadcast. (Chuck Bolland, December 22, 2010)
Peru, 4746.92, Radio Huanta Dox Mil, 1040-1050, Signal just barely making it here.
Noted some Spanish talk, but mainly music. Signal was threshold. (Chuck Bolland,

** CROATIA [non]. 6110, music from V. of Croatia, Dec 22 at 0128 // Germany 7375 but probably not synchronized; not audible on [non non] 3985. 6110 is a test via Woofferton UK at 01-03, 294 degrees, to be followed by Rampisham 5925 at 03-04, and 5920 at 04-05, both 300 degrees, to ``NWAm, Mon-Tue-Wed`` per DX Mix News, Bulgaria --- so was this the last of three nights doing it? Perhaps to remind M&B they have competition (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1544, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CYPRUS [and non]. 11695-11720, OTH radar pulsing, presumed from here, Dec 22 at 1505. Main victim is 11720 DW, Russian via Rampisham (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EQUATORIAL GUINEA [and non]. 15190, Dec 21 at 2230, awful mix of R. Africa and R. Inconfid?ncia. Bata had Tony Alamo undermodulated and very distorted, ZYE522 with music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GREECE [and non]. 7450, VOG Greek music, Dec 21 at 2228, but big het from WWCR-1 7465 spur as constantly plus and minus 15+ kHz from fundamental. The other one on 7480+ did not have a victim (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA NORTH [non]. 5985, Wed Dec 22 at 1423, Shiokaze/Sea Breeze via JSR JAPAN, usual earnest YL in English with description of a 1960 abductee, Koiko(?) Yamada, including her height in cm and feet. Good signal, S9+15 and het from Myanmar just barely audible. 1425 begins wrapping up with complete contact info, ``time for us to come together and fight the dictator Kim Jung-Il, 1430*. There should be English again on Friday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MALAYSIA/SARAWAK. 5030, RTM, Dec 22 at 1418 S9+15, about equal to Cuba 5025, which for a change was causing no problem to 5030. Lively music, YL announcement, dialog with OM past 1423 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA [and non]. 7255, VON, VG with African music during scheduled Hausa, Dec 21 at 2229, back where it`s supposed to be instead of 9690 where we caught it once, and consequently WYFR Portuguese spoken by gringo in the clear on 9690.
15120, Dec 22 at 1529, P-F S9+8, Voice of Nigeria IDs in English, news headlines about Ivory Coast, etc. 1531 http://www.voiceofnigeria.org mentioned. Carrier is unstable, obvious with BFO on. I ask again, is this their brand-new transmitter, or not? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA [non]. 17485, Hamada Radio International, nothing audible Wed Dec 22 at 1415, but presumed still active with propagation from Germany subnormal, also on 15 MHz band (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN. 17595, REE, Dec 22 at 1532 news in Portuguese by extremely nasal YL, 1534 French, 1537-1540 English including: state lottery, upon which Spaniards spend average 60 euro per capita; pension reform; anti-terrorism alerts focus on the Sahel; French and German citizens urged to evacuate Ivory Coast as civil war may be breaking out; thousands of students protest university reform in Italy; 3-hour strike in Athens. Allison Hughes IDed herself at closing, and turned over to Arabic. She had really been hurrying to squeeze all she could into her three minutes. Russian is still missing from the advertised mix at 1530-1545 M-F.
Did WRTH 2011 get this new service in? Not in the schedule of English broadcasts on page 597 or under Spain, but explained further down on page 474, listing five languages in alfabetical rather than broadcast order. Has correct time for Basque as 1330 M-F, and for Catalan and Galician M-F 2345-2355, plus mentions a repeat of those we were unaware of: next day at 0505-0515; to be confirmed (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1200, on caradio Dec 21 at 2149 UT, Spanish from WRTO Chicago dominating, vs English talk from WOAI, with a slow SAH of 20 per minute between them causing deep fades, i.e. 1/3 Hz apart. As the Number One IBOC station, WOAI should be spot-on 1200.000 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. 15420-CUSB, Global Spirit Proclamation, the androgynous anapaestic preacher from Fence Lake on WBCQ, Dec 21 at 1847. The reduced carrier was wobbling, with BFO on, something not noted before on a WBCQ transmitter. Way over 15420 BBC via SOUTH AFRICA, which runs until 1900.
WORLD OF RADIO 1543, confirmed on WBCQ 7415, Tuesday Dec 21 at 2024 as I was talking about Saudi Arabia 15250. This was the first airing of last week`s show on WBCQ. 1544 is ready in time for Wed and Thu 2000 UT this week, but unknown whether 1543 may get another play first.
WORLD OF RADIO 1544, first SW broadcast confirmed on WRMI 9955, Wed Dec 22 at 1635, but poor signal with pulse jamming making it unlistenable; are we supposed to feel favored because it was nothing like the wall of noise jamming on 9965? Tnx a lot, Arnie!
Next airings on WRMI 9955: Thu 0430, 1600, 2200, Fri 1530. On WWRB 3185: Fri 0430. On WWCR 7465: Fri 2130 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. I was wondering whatever became of VOA`s ``Border Crossings``, world music show, and now I know. It is still on at least one SW frequency at 1505 UT, 12055, Dec 22 after VOA news playing ``Happy Christmas``, 1509 program ID and inviting requests to phone number, so apparently live. Increasingly bothered by splash from WEWN Spanish 12050. Meanwhile 9760 via Philippines was as usual in English Learning hour. 12055 is 100 kW, 108 degrees via Lampertheim, GERMANY during this hour only.
I was wanting to look up all the English frequencies in use during this hour, but the A-Z pages are gone! Or moved to inaccessibility. Finally found this page, http://www.insidevoa.com/about/frequencies/ which purports to lead to frequencies. Exhaustive lists of programs and times, including B.C. M-F 1505-1600. You have to click again on each program to get to its frequencies,
http://www.voanews.com/english/programs/radio/64958237.html
which shows:
Africa: 4930, 6080, 12020, 15580, 17895 mhz [sic]
Middle East & Europe: 13570, 15530 mhz [sic]
Asia & Pacific: 7540, 7575, 12150 mhz [sic]
But not including the one I am hearing, 12055! I`m afraid this lineup looks quite out of date, A-10? Compare to B-10 info we had previously in DXLD as of Nov 14, but there may have been more changes by now:
English to Europe, Middle East, and North Africa
1500-1600 UTC 11765 12055
English to Africa
1500-1600 UTC 4930 6080 15580 17715 17895
English to Far East Asia, South Asia, and Oceania
1500-1600 UTC 7575 9930 12150
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 6925-USB, pirate Dec 22 at 1432 with stilted M&W discussion about ham radio, as if they were trying to make it obvious they were reading a script, 1437 soul music, 1442 SSTV to 1443* but no voice ID heard. Had OTH radar QRM, right in the middle of its range at the moment (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 7235, Dec 22 at 1453, a het with something slightly to one side, bits of audio; stronger carrier went off at 1458 but still a het. Probably has something to do with ETHIOPIA, V. of Peace and Democracy clandestine to Eritrea, longpath, reported here at other times (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Subject: [HCDX] 15290 Jordan Radio
JORDAN 15290 Radio Jordan (pres), at 1221-1228* UT on Dec 13, non-stop Middle Eastern vocals until carrier terminated without announcements at 1228 UT. Poor with fair peaks. At 1156-1230* UT on Dec 14, Middle Eastern vocals to 1200 ID followed by news in Arabic by man and woman. News ended at 1217 UT with dramatic musical fanfare. Music programming until carrier cut. Good signal today.
(Rich D'Angelo-USA, French Creek State Park DXped No.38, Ten-Tec RX-340, Drake R-8B and an Eton E1, 500-foot wire essentially north for the RX-340 and 250-foot wire essentially northeast for the R-8B and a whip antenna for the E1, DXplorer and NASWA yg via dxld Dec 22)

Jordan Radio Amman noted signing-on played Arabic singer on Dec 23 at 11.57:20 UT, weak at S=5 -110dBm level in Germany. ID and nx read by female announcer, fanfare. Comparison TRT on 15350 kHz on S=9+12dB, 15480 kHz on S=7-8 deep fades, even powerhouse REE Noblejas only S=6-7 today, lousy propagation condition today.

Subject: [HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs December 22-23, 2010
** CYPRUS. 13032-13062, OTH radar pulsing, presumed from here, Dec 23 at 1425 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** FRANCE [non]. 17630, RFI Spanish via GUIANA FRENCH, excellent signal in news Dec 21 at 2105. This service still very much exists, always subject to strike interruptions. The 2100-2130 transmission is 250 kW, 295 degrees for southern USA from NM eastward, Mexico, Central America and NW South America. Yet RFI can`t be bothered to broadcast in English, or even French to any part of the USA. Thus it joins V of Russia in targeting USA via GUF only in Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUAM. 5765-USB, Dec 23 at 1407, AFN remains active, with Dr Joy Browne talkshow, 800 number (Glenn Hausere, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** IRAN. 9585, poor Dec 23 at 1435 Qur`an and then talk in unID language. Fits VIRI`s format of always opening services on the half hour with a few minutes of Qur`aning. Listed as Hindi, 500 kW, 102 degrees via Sirjan. Not too many Hindi Moslems, I expect (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 1580, KOKB Blackwell, here we go again. Dead air, open carrier, Dec 23 at 1444 UT allowing CCI to be audible from preacherstation, still at 1555; meanwhile // KOKP 1020 was modulating normally (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** RUSSIA. 6075, Dec 23 at 1359, R. Rossii, Pet/Kam motorboating carrier and little program audio until 1400 timesignal. Carrier stayed on until 1403, but no sign of 8GAL 6074 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TURKEY. 11735, VOT IS running late after English broadcast, Dec 23 at 1428-1430*, off right after accurate timesignal. // 12035 was already off. 11735 transmitter should have been preceding another language on another frequency. 11735 was squeezed by RHC 11730 and WYFR 11740 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1544 confirmed on WBCQ 7415, Wednesday Dec 22 at 2005, VP signal here, so 1543 only got one play on Dec 21. Meanwhile 9955 had heavy jamming against nothing, as WRMI is off the air weekday afternoons until 2200. WOR confirmed on WRMI webcast at 0430 UT Thursday Dec 23. And on 9955 at 1600 UT Thursday, no jamming but poor signal. Next WRMI airings Thu 2200 probably jammed, Fri 1530. WBCQ 7415, Thu 2000. Also on WWRB UT Friday 0430 on 3185; WWCR Friday 2130 on 7465 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1510, as I tune in to strong clear signal, Dec 23 at 1446, ID as ``Hot Talk 1510, KCTE Independence-Kansas City``, back to Mike & Mike on ESPN Radio; running a few words ahead of // KSTP 1500. It`s 10 kW daytimer with a lobe right toward us, tho I seldom notice it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. 12055, VOA Dec 23 at 1503 news with long/short path echo, and ACI from squealer WEWN 12050. 1505 Border Crossings, Larry opening show with request and happy birthday to listener in India. Poor here, but // 11765 only JBA thanks to temporary absence of RHC 11760. Both of these are exactly the same parameters, 100 kW, 108 degrees via Lampertheim, GERMANY (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Peru, 6019.238, Radio Victoria, 2318-2330, Noted a male in Spanish language comments.
comments seemed to be secular rather than religious. Unfortunately there's a lot of splatter
and QRM near this frequency which is destroying the readablity. Signal was poor. (Chuck Bolland, December 23, 2010)
Bolivia, 4699.97, Radio San Miguel, 2327-2335, Noted a threshold signal here this evening
with a female possibly in Spanish language comments. No other details were possible.

Subject: [HCDX] Fri Chilly Morn DX
Russia, 6075, Radio Rossii, 1135-1145, Barely able to hear any audio, but when I do it's a male in Russian Language comments. Mainly hearing the tone that this station is transmitting from it's own transmitter. (Chuck Bolland, December 24, 2010)
Malaysia, 7295, RTM Kuala Lumpur,Pres, 1153-1200 Noted just music at tune in. At 1159
a male in English comments. Signal too weak to pull out details, but heard a couple of words such as "Welcome". This is followed with the news. A recheck at 1213 produce a better signal with music being heard. Signal was threshold at the top, but was poor by 1213. (Chuck Bolland, 24, 2010)
Malaysia, 7270, RTM, Kuching.Pres, 1208-1230, Heard some music at tune in, immediately
followed by comments from a female. Comments were probably in Iban. After a moment
local type music is heard. At 1214 a female in Iban comments briefly then back to music.
At 1215 the audio portion of the signal drops off the air while the carrier is still up. Maybe
the band is changing? Didn't hear anything more after that. (Chuck Bolland, December
24, 2010)
Indonesia, 9680.061, RRI Jakarta, 1220-1230, Noted a group of individuals in Indonesain
language comments. This sounds like a discussion between the group which includes a female. Signal was good. Using the WR-G31DDC which shows a second signal on 9680.00 KHz which could be R Taiwan International which is scheduled to be up on Fridays. Howeveer, Jakarta is stronger and can't hear any audio from Taiwan. (Chuck Bolland, December 24, 2010)
Indonesia, 9525.965, Voice of Indonesia, 1223-1235, Noted a female in Japanese comments,
but at 1225 she gives an ID in English as, "Voice of Indonesia ..." Missed words could have
been Japanese in the ID. Following this, Japanese music presented with talk over it in Japanese. Signal was Good. Chuck Bolland, December 24, 2010)
Malaysia, 9750.034, Voice of Malaysia, 1220-1245, Have been listening to this for almost a
half hour without realizing it was Malaysia, since the announcer was using a language I wasn't expecting. I still don't know what it was? Indonesian is scheduled, but it sounded more like Spanish to my untrained ear. Gotta get my ear trained. Anyway at 1239 ID was given and I was able to copy "Malaysia" in there. This was followed with music. At 1243 another ID given by a male in possibly Indonesian language. Signal was good. (Chuck Bolland, December 24, 2010)

** ANTARCTICA. 15476, the sixth LRA36-less week concludes, no trace of a signal Friday Dec 24 around 1350 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA NORTH [non]. 5985, Shiokaze/Sea Breeze, via JSR JAPAN, Friday Dec 24 at 1402 in English with news flashes, headlines concerning North Korea attributed to Daily NK, Yonghap, etc., with stingers between them; good (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 89.5, something strange audible in western Enid: sporadic bits of Xmas song starting ``Snow is Falling. . .``, otherwise long periods of dead air, and never any other music, Dec 23 around 1930 UT. I suppose it`s someone`s part 15 transmitter; a little further east we hear traces of KWGS Tulsa.
Earlier I had heard a jazzed-up Xmas music medley on 99.7 from a house on Pheasant Run at the western edge of Enid, coordinated with flashing light show, as publicized in local paper. This had a very limited range barely reaching across the street to overcome KZLS 99.7 Mustang ex-Enid/Alva; see DXLD 10-51 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ROMANIA. 15290, Dec 24 at 1553 music seemed S Asian or ME; could Jordan be on extended Xmas eve sked? No! Soon into Arabic mentioning Bucharest, RRI IS (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** RUSSIA [and non]. 6075, R. Rossii, Pet/Kam, Dec 24 at 1358 nothing audible but the motorboating noise; 1400 timesignal mixing with bong from Taiwan as Chinese started on frequency; RR carrier finally off at 1401:45* but nothing from 8GAL 6074 heard during this quadriminute (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. 9885, Dec 24 at 0556, VTC music loop is QRMing VOA English to Africa, making fast SAH. 0600 VOA is in the clear with news of Ivory Coast, but cuts to dead air 0601, finally resumed at 0608 still reporting on C?te d`Ivoire. From HFCC listings here is what must have been happening:
IBB is scheduled to switch sites for VOA from S?o Tom? to Meyerton at 0600! But SENTECH should crash-start rather than warm up before 0600. So it goes when you do so much outsourcing. Does this happen every day? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1544, confirmed on WWRB 3185, UT Friday Dec 24 after 0430. This is one of our earliest and best airings as far as broad coverage of North America. Good audio, too, and never jammed.
Also confirmed on WRMI 9955, Friday Dec 24 at 1547, poor signal but no jamming except bleedover from 9965.
Scheduled airings on WWCR are: Fri 2130 on 7465; Sat 1700 on 12160; UT Sunday 0330 on 4840 (for the last time?); Sunday 0730 on 3215 --- altho there could be pre-emptions because of the holidays.
This Saturday should also bring our final airing at 0900 via IRRS SLOVAKIA 9510, unless pre-empted, but continuing at 1900 on 6090 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

QTH: Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan
RX: WinRadio G303e
ANT: 100m longwire
4830, 25 DEC, 0058 UTC, MONGOLIA, Mongolian R., in Mongol, and kickin' it with an instrumental version of "I Just Want to Say I Love You." Great signals with a slight fade. Time pips and beautiful full ID on the hour.
4844, 25 DEC, 0106 UTC, INDIA, AIR Mumbai (tent.) in Hindi with subcontinental music and long talks by male announcer. Off of nominal 4840? Is this a planned move or has there been some detuning or a crystal that has gone for a walk? Strong signals but moderate QRM from a carrier on 4845.
4880, 25 DEC, 0112 UTC, INDIA, AIR Lucknow in Hindi with subcontinental music. Local level signals, but horrible, tinny modulation without any real depth to it.
4885, 25 DEC, 0115 UTC, BRAZIL, Radio Clube do Para in Portuguese with romantic songs and some R&B. Beautiful, echo and full ID at 0128. Strong signals, no QRM, but fluttery. Incredible! This is quite the Xmas present. 7686 miles away! Supposedly only 2kW?
4895, 25 DEC, 0146 UTC, MONGOLIA, Mongolian Radio 2nd Channel, rockin' out for Xmas. Very haunting melody and music, and such good quality that it was actually a pleasure to listen to. Great signals with a slight fade.
Well, a very merry Christmas to all! This is the first breather I have had in two months and I closed the office today, so I could do some DXing. I'm glad I did. It hasn't all been a joyous Holiday season tho as my mom is currently in hospital for a rather serious infection in her
artificial knee. I hope all of you out there are doing much better than this!
The knob-ends in the compound across our alley here have somehow converted a spark-gap transmitter into a power generator and they are blissfully destroying mediumwave and low-band DX for me. All appeals have fallen on deaf ears, so I guess they need some sugar in the fuel tank...
Last night an international group of military officers got it into their small heads that somehow it might be a cool idea to go around base caroling. As Project Manager, I am also responsible for the compound and its security and their horrible screeching and jodeling combined to form a new doric scale, frightening my staff. I went out on my doorstep
and held up a finger and they mistook that for a request for one more carol. The must have misidentified which finger I held up.
Christmas meal is being served at the UK Cambridge Lines today and I am looking forward to the pomp and circumstance. Civilians are allowed between 1130-1230 (which, really, is kind of rushed for a Christmas meal). Hopefully I can find some outlaw alcohol somewhere on the base later, but I think mostly I'll be drinking coffee and diet coke and DXing.
I'll check in more during the day as the DX rolls in. Just wanted to post these off and say hello!

6180, 25 DEC, 0312 UTC, CUBA, RHC in Spanish with interview and man on telephone rambling about everything from the US, to Venezuela to Palestine and Israel. No shortage of political opinions on this day. Fair level with slight interference from a station with Arabic chanting (unid.) and slight fading. Another amazing catch at 8117 miles! Txer blew the air at 0328.
6368.5, 25 DEC, 0410 UTC, SWITZERLAND, HEB Bern Radio "coastal" station with SITOR bursts and an occasional CQ DE HEB Morse ID. Fair signals with no QRM.
6379, 25 DEC, 0420 UTC, ISRAEL, 4XZ Israeli navy, Haifa. CW Marker. Excellent signals and no QRM. Does anyone have a working snail mail or email address for these guys? Thanks.
6435.5, 25 DEC, 0428 UTC, SWITZERLAND, HEB Bern Radio, // 6368.5
7175, 25 DEC, 0455 UTC, ERITREA, Voice of the Broad Masses with a female announcer spinning some music that sounded like a cross between Santana and Reggae. She did have a very nice voice. Fair signals with some fading and no QRM.
7405, 25 DEC, 0520, OMAN, Radio Sultanate of Oman, in Arabic with Arabic pop music and announcements by female DJ. Then into some sort of radio play. Pounding signal without QRM and very slight fading.
Still more to come!

7584, 25 DEC, 0621 UTC, UNID CW station repeatedly sending 751 and nothing else. Not a platter or loop because the op made several mistakes and sent a couple of BTs and "dits" to indicate an error. Went SK at 0623. Nothing listed in Klingenfuss.
10300, 25 DEC, 0845 UTC, CHINA, Firedrake with the jug band in full swing and going to town. Poor signals without QRM (dunno what they're trying to jam) and slight fading.
11530, 25 DEC, 0856 UTC, CLAN., Denge Mezopotamya, with Pop music and announcements by female DJ in presumed Kurdish. Very strong signals with a slight fade. No QRM. This is another one whose QSL evades me despite many reports and return postage. Same problem with Airtime Belgium, its enabler, who also promises a QSL for brokered programs. Bah!
12613, 25 DEC, 1017 UTC, CHINA, XSQ Guangzhou Radio, CW Marker and SITOR
bursts. Good signals, slight fade, no QRM

Subject: [HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs December 24-25, 2010
** ARGENTINA. 11711-, UT Sat Dec 25 at 0200, RAE 8-note IS, over and over, with occasional IDs in all its languages. Weak and fading in the distance, it sounds so forlorn, and about to be gone forever from SW in one week? I recorded a few minutes for the archives. English is supposed to start at 0200 UT Tue-Sat, but the IS kept on playing. 0215 switched to longer multilingual IDs mixed with other music, and 0217 finally sign-on English program, but by now signal is too weak to copy. It had been reading S9+18 which ought to be sufficient, but much less than its nearest comparison, 11780 Bras?lia at S9+22. Perhaps the delay was an Xmas-eve problem, and morale is probably quite low (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA [and non]. 5965, Dec 25 at 1511 two stations and motorboating sound (low rumble, like on Pet/Kam 6075); one in Chinese, which is RCI via JAPAN, and the only other scheduled is CRI in Russian via Beijing. Seems rather inconvenient that RCI`s relay partner CRI is on the frequency itself is trying to use for China. So is one of these transmitters defective? Or was the rumble from an external source (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** DJIBOUTI. 4780, R. Djibouti, Dec 25 at 0328 assertive speech, mostly over the CODAR (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EAST TURKISTAN. 4980, Dec 25 at 0055, just about the OSOB below 5 MHz, W&M talk, sounds Turkic, not Chinesic, bits of music. 0100 5+1 timesignal one second late. Only thing listed in PWBR `2009` is Xinjiang PBS, Ur?mqi. Also in B-10 HFCC, starting at 2330, 50 kW, 230 degrees, but in Chinese (Zho).
WRTH 2011 (under CHINA) shows 4980 as same source, but Nov-Apr only and *inactive, so can`t look up which language service it is supposed to carry. Aoki, however has it in Uighur language and active on the B-10 schedule, so with the lack of anything else on frequency, and a good transpolar darkness path, I feel safe in presuming it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EGYPT. 6270, Dec 25 at 0235, R. Cairo English is just an open carrier with some whine, same at 0240 and 0324 chex, and also had noticed it about an hour before. Thus they do not have to worry about modulation quality. Another Xmas-eve who-cares SNAFU? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GERMANY [non]. Kept running across DW as I was aroundtuning Xmas eve:
11725, Dec 24 at 1857, Catholic Xmas sermon in German, later mass sounds. After 1900 playing secular Xmas music in English but German YL announcements, then even Stille Nacht in English. This is 250 kW, 295 degrees via RWANDA. RNZI is also on 11725 at this time, but no sign of it.
11665, Dec 25 at 0140, string of Xmas tunes by Elvis (in English) but announced in German; 0147 more Xmas music in English, then mixture of ``God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen`` with ``Take 5``. `Tis the season for messing around with carols, but breaks the monotony and repetitiveness. Cut off abruptly at 0159:30* without ID or any announcement.
This is DW, 0100-0159, 282 degrees from Ascension to CIRAF 7S, 8S, 10, 11, 12N, which means: southern USA from New Mexico eastward; Mexico, Central America, Caribbean, NW South America. So once again we have a non-English [almost] broadcast officially targeted for part of the USA, despite deletion of us as a recognized coverage area years ago. If they overtly broadcast to NAm in English more people might notice and complain (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GREECE. 7475, Dec 25 at 0613, two or three Orthodox cantors making quite a sound, never achieving true harmony. This is normally heard on UT Sundays around this time, but must have been celebrating Dec 25 as Xmas. John Babbis reported, ``From 01.00 Friday, December 24, until 09.00 Monday, December 27, Greece Time, (2300 UT Thursday, December 23 until 0700 UT Monday, December 27), ERA5, the Voice of Greece, will be connected with the Christmas program of the Greek Radio`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. 9526-, VOI, Dec 25 at 1333 with ``Silent Night`` in Indonesian, announced in English. I forced myself to listen for 60 seconds in order to count the number of IADs (intermittent audio dropouts), and there were 19, unevenly spaced, most ~3 seconds apart, occasionally with a respite up to 5 seconds (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NETHERLANDS [non]. 11655, Dec 24 at 2035-2057* RNW via MADAGASCAR, ``The State We`re In``, very interesting interview with an antiquities smuggler who says he`s saving the pieces from destruxion in their country of origin, Egypt. VG reception, almost as if it were for US (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA. 7275, Dec 25 at 0611, very poor signal sounds like it may be in English, no doubt R. Nigeria, Abuja, in the clear this time since Tunisia [q.v.] is on the wrong frequency, 7225 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ROMANIA. 5975, RRI with nice variety of Romanian Xmas music, none of it familiar, announced in French, Dec 25 at 0245-0257* (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN [non]. 9675, REE via COSTA RICA, Dec 25 at 0227 program about ``tiempo m?gico`` with strange music; at fades, a fast SAH appeared; would not expect Brasil to be that close to same frequency, but possible. Otherwise good, fortunately, since 6055 direct is squeezed by CUBA on both sides. Who thought that was a good idea? Arnie. 9675 far overshadowed RTI English via WYFR 9680 despite being aimed right at us, 315 degrees, but so is REE at 340 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SUDAN. 7200, Omdurman, Dec 25 at 0326, Arabic music, chanting and drumming, somewhat undermodulated. 0332 announcement included ``Idha`at . . . Sudan``. 0334 fading (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TUNISIA. 7225, Arabic at 0611 Dec 25, where none should be, and // 7335, so once again RTT is on wrong frequency, the one it uses previous evenings, instead of 7275. 0621 kids` chorus, which I think is a Saturday-morning staple, 0626:50* cut off abruptly just like it does when on 7275. Since R. Nigeria [q.v.], Abuja is back on 7275 now, we wonder if Tunisia`s shift is deliberate, but it then reverts to 7275 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 18530, Dec 25 at 1458, the Brother Scare organ was playing, weak but unmistakable. On Saturdays only we may enjoy the WINB second harmonic all day from 9265 as 13570 takes a break (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 6768, Dec 25 at 0132, 5-digit Spanish spy numbers by YL (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

** ALBANIA. 7530, R. Tirana, Dec 25 at 2122, S9+15 but just barely modulated; however // 9895 is just barely audible. By 2126 I can tell that the music is ``White Christmas``, modulation improving somewhat, 2128 outro English as having been a ``reportage on Christmas celebrations in Albania`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 9625, just as I tuned in CBC NQ with a story about river icing, cut off the air Dec 25 at 2139, resumed two minutes later. After 2200 news, had a CBC Xmas special featuring tenors. Fair signal and QRMless at this time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA [and non]. 7105, Chinese with good signal amid 40m hamband, Dec 25 at 2238. Soon found // 7440 echoing and mixing with other signals, but on 7105 at 2246 only a fast SAH, no other modulation audible. It is of course, CNR1 jamming Sound of Hope which uses 7105 only at 22-23.
On 7440, the jamming is vs VOA Chinese via Thailand, but also blasts CRI Japanese via Beijing, per Aoki (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. 9550, DentroCuban Jamming Command, Dec 25 at 2138 pulsing against nothing, probably spur from 9565 against Mart? via Sackville.
6020, DCJC, Dec 25 at 2312, pulse jamming against something, Romania in English, probably spur from 6020 Mart? via Greenville.
5735, DCJC, Dec 25 at 2314, pulse jamming against nothing, not on 5745 where it is `needed` elsewhen against Mart?.
12060, DCJC, Dec 25 at 2317, pulse jamming against nothing, 2 x 6030 vs Mart?; poor here while RHC 12010 and 12040 VG.
5990, CRI English relay, Dec 25 at 2313 is not only lo-fi but the squealing transmitter.
15230, RHC in Portuguese, Dec 25 at 2318, while 15370 was stronger but extremely distorted in Creole at 2319. For once, both these match the schedule at
http://www.radiohc.cu/espanol/c_frecuencia/frecuencias.htm
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EGYPT. 6270, R. Cairo, which was open carrier all last evening, is still/again! dead air, Dec 25 at 2207 during the 2115-2245 English to Europe. But by 2235 had managed some lofi, lomod music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDIA. AIR GOS, 9445 fluttery but better than // 7550, Dec 25 at 2130 about Xmas celebrations in India, saying all religions celebrate it as a holiday, then rather amateurish dramatization of a family`s activities (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** JAPAN. 11665, NHK direct, UT Saturday Dec 25 at 2325 with classical organ music, Bach; // 17605 via Bonaire not making it this time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 6185, Dec 25 at 2303, XEPPM is again on an hour early with music, fast SAH from something but not Brasil. EiBi has already adopted the 2300 opening we reported previously (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NEWFOUNDLAND. 6160, CKZN, Dec 25 at 2304 weather forecast for Maritime cities, all in negative temps; why not switch to Kelvin? Poor with fast SAH, 2305 into music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA. 7255, Dec 25 still on at 2302, S9+25 with tone test and hum, after Hausa service which had heard in previous hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SARAWAK [non]. 7590, Dec 25 at 2243, poor signal in conversation, cadence sounds IndoMalay, presumably R. Free Sarawak via TAJIKISTAN which has been going for a sesquimonth now at 2230-2330, also in local language Iban. S9+10 peaks but still too poor to make much of it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOUTH AFRICA. 11755, Dec 25 just before 2100 as I tune in, VTC fill music loop and off. This had been AWR via Meyerton in Yoruba, preceded by French at 2000 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN. 7270 and 7275, REE strangely on both adjacent frequencies in Spanish, but separate programming, Dec 25 at 2248. 7275 was // 11940, so I concentrated on 7270. This show in Castilian was about visiting T?bet, and gave phone number several times, 91-496-2823, unGooglable.
7270 sign-off at 2255 said it was for Europe, to resume in the morning on 9780 DRM and 12035, but then mentioned ``esta emisi?n`` being to NW Africa on 7275, the frequency I was not listening to. HFCC shows 7270 is 170 degrees to NW Af and 7275 50 degrees to Europe. To confuse matters further, WRTH 2011 does not list 7270 at all, but has a frequency I did not notice, 7265 Spanish to Af at 22-23 following Arabic (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9479, Sat Dec 25 at 2012, WTWW has finally broken away from Pastor Pete Peters. There had been rumors that he was considering allowing some other programming despite his 24/7 purchase of WTWW-1 airtime. What else but QSO with Ted Randall, who has also been involved with this station from the start, did the test broadcasts and produced the IDs.
As I tuned in, W4RWL was conveying his Xmas greetings, and then KE5ALK. At 2014 Ted did one of his ubiquitous antenna ads; 2016 song ``How`d you like to spend Christmas on Christmas Island?`` [which one? Ask any illegal immigrant to Australia]. 2019 two more hams with greetings and both said Happy New Year, 2009! Ooops, this is a two-year-old show.

Frequency is really 9479-, but Ted thinx 9480 is close enough. QSO had been running Sat 19-20 UT on WBCQ 7415, as well as UT Sundays 01-05++, so I check 7415 at 2015: no, not //, something else, an OL talking about Xmas --- unless it was a different QSO interviewing her.
Since I heard it after 2000, but at 2100 Scriptures for America was back on 9479, QSO must be two hours at 19-21 Sats (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 17520, Saturday Dec 25 at 1950, assertive talk in unknown language, long-path echo too, punxuated by occasional screams, but lo fi audio. 1958 cut to some southern gospel music, WHRI sign-off, to QSY to 15665 and off. In past WHRI has carried some Amharic shows around this time, but nothing to be found on their online schedules to account for this. In the frequency schedules, we find many duplications between Angel 1 and 5, such as 17520 on both of them at 19-20, but apparently that depends on day of week, when you delve into the program schedules.
Angel 1: 1900 - 2000 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM Sa Bishop S.C. Johnson Program Bishop S.C. Johnson & Elder Conrad Campbell 17.520 Mhz
Angel 5: 1900 - 2000 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM Sa Bishop S.C. Johnson Program Bishop S.C. Johnson & Elder Conrad Campbell 15.665 Mhz
WHRI`s linx to some programs do not include this one, so we Google:
http://www.apostolic-ministries.net/memory.htm
``-------In Memory Of--------
Bishop S.C. Johnson
Departed This World, February 22, 1961``
But it seems his followers have kept him going a long time, more than three sesquidecades! I wonder if that was really him and his accent so heavy I could not recognize it as English? Same page mentions on WINB, but not WHRI. I did not check whether he was // on 15665 before 2000.
Googling Elder Conrad Campbell gets only four hits, all of them leading back to WHR. There are audio files of many of S.C.`s sermons on above site (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9350, WWCR with IRN/USA `News` at 2203 Dec 25, caster pronounces the island off Yemen ``Socorta`` --- bet he had never heard of it before, but that`s no disqualification for being an agenda-based network newscaster on national and international radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 3320, Dec 25 at 2309 continuous tone test, exactly same pitch as the pips on CHU; apparently R. Sonder Grense, SOUTH AFRICA which is supposed to program all-night; tho P`yongyang could have propagated, too (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
