Let me thank Stewart for his dedication to the SWL hobby and his seems like forever posting of these most helpful logs. It is people like you, my friend, that make the hobby of Ham or SWL or radio in any form, such a wonderful sport to play in! Keep up the great work Stewart and may the 'waves be with you'!

Subject: [HCDX] Fri eve & Sat

Bolivia, 4699.97, Radio San Miguel, 2305-2315,   Noted just one male in Spanish language comments during the listening period.  This continues during the period.  However, the signal never improved beyond threshold unfortunately. (Chuck Bolland, November 19, 2010)

Unident, 4814.97, 2330-2359,  Noted a very weak station here with comments.  Unable to pull any details from the comments due to the QRM that's just nearby.   Ecuador and Brazil are both listed on this frequency, but the noise is too solid to hear anything significant. Can't even identify the language. (Chuck Bolland, November 19, 2010)

Spain, 21540.007, REE, 1445-1455   Noted news and comments in Spanish during the period.
At 1455 full ID in Spanish by a female before going off the air at 1455*.  Signal was fair
with interference from Kuwiat.  (Chuck Bollandl, November 20, 2010)

Kuwait, 21539.997, Radio Kuwait, 1445-1500, Mixing with Spain, noted Arabic language comments with plenty of local music.   Heard the place Kuwait mentioned a couple of times before they went off the air.  (Chuck Bolland, November 20, 2010)

Note:  Both of the above 21540 stations are off freq slightly.  I wonder if that is intentional or just
a mistake by the Engineers?   I guess they are within their assigned parameters, but it is interesting.   Since they both subscript to HFCC, I wonder why  they are on the same freq at the same time?   Why belong to a frequency assigning committee if the result is QRM?

Subject: [HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs November 19-20, 2010

** CHINA. Firedrake Nov 20:
8400, good at 1350. No others found until 1430 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GUATEMALA. 4052.5-, R. Verdad, Nov 20 at 0602 amid national anthem before closing, fair and clear signal. TGAV has decided to move to 4055 once a new crystal can be obtained, to facilitate tuning on 5-kHz-step receivers, and to be further from Kyrgyzstan and Missouri on 4050 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MALAYSIA. 5030, RMS now managing to provide some music and talk audio, Nov 20 at 1340, poor vs Cuba 5025. Still, it`s the OSOB from Asia. Now it has some competition from Radio Free Sarawak, yet to be heard here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KUWAIT. 9750, Nov 20 at 1352 Qur`an, mixing with Japanese from NHK Yamata, 1400 into ME music and Arabic talk, I think, so presumed Kuwait as scheduled 1100-1600, 300 kW, 275 degrees; rather than Malaysia, 100 kW, 150 degrees. Between 12 and 16 all three are registered here per HFCC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NEWFOUNDLAND. 3485-SSB, 0620 Nov 20, immediately after New York Radio [see USA], ``This is Gander Radio, time 0620 zulu``, with VOLMET. I am paying attention to the mixture of units: winds in knots, ceilings in unspecified units but sound like feet; visibility in miles. Not giving any temps or altimeters yet, as starts with 2- to 24-hour ``temporary`` conditions, i.e. forecasts (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NIGERIA [non]. 7350, still trying to hear whether R. Nigeria, Abuja is still here, vs the QRM. Sat Nov 20 at 0611, a very weak carrier could be it. No sign of BBC French via Skelton, which B-10 is supposedly scheduled 0600-0630 daily, 300 kW, 195 degrees. Perhaps they have left in deference to Nigeria, or not really daily? Other Eurafsigs were in well, Vatican on 7360 to 0627*, Tunisia 7335 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN [non]. Since REE`s own schedules are contradictory and unreliable, I make a point of monitoring UT Saturday Nov 20 at 0605 on 5965 via COSTA RICA: yes, this is the correct time for ``Amigos de la Onda Corta``, their DX program in Spanish, started at 0605:35, with considerable co-channel from Vatican, as these two stations have enjoyed colliding with each other here for years. The // 25m frequencies from Spain direct were not propagating.

Closing electronic theme kept going past 1-second-late timesignal at 0630, along with CCI and SAH from Vatican under; finally at 0631:25 opens next show, like last week ``Edici?n Exclusiva``, not the mailbag (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** UGANDA [non]. 17725, standing by for weekly clandestine Redio Y`Abaganda, now scheduled for only 15 minutes via FRANCE, Saturdays 1700-1715: Nothing there at 1659, so I quickly check 12160 to confirm WORLD OF RADIO 1539 is airing nominally on WWCR: it is, excellent signal with reverby audio from the bottom of the barrel.

When I get back to 17725 at 1700:30, RYA is on with anthem or Christian-sounding hymn. It is cut off abruptly at 1702:30, for opening in vernacular, and I think a few words of English, but so heavily accented it`s hard to differentiate from the vern. Is it really Swahili as per Aoki? Listened a few more minutes, and sounds extremely amateurish, recorded on lofi consumer equipment, bad phone quality audio, saying hello? Hello? Trying to get someone to answer. Signal was sufficient, but no comparison to VOA Portuguese 17740 which had just signed on and was splattering 17725-17755; presumably Greenville rather than Sackville (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1539 confirmed on WWCR 7465, VG signal Friday Nov 19 but starting a sesquiminute late at 2131:30, as previous program ran over; probably had to start a bit late after frequency change at 2100. But WOR played to conclusion 2200, then into Spanish. Also VG Saturday Nov 20 at 1700 on 12160. Remaining airings are UT Sunday 0330 on 4840, 0730 on 3215.

Also circa Europe remember our new frequency via IPAR/IRRS/NEXUS-IBA, 6090 via SLOVAKIA, Saturdays at 1900 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 3485-SSB, WSY70, a.k.a. New York Radio is reactivated on this frequency, Nov 20 at 0616 with VOLMET for places such as Miami, Nassau, Atlanta. And heard same locales repeated at 0619. Strange mixture of metric and American units: temps in Celsius, altimeters (barometric pressure) in inches of mercury. Until 0620*, ``New York Radio, out`` and Gander takes over immediately: see NEWFOUNDLAND (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1340, Sat Nov 20 at 1326 UT, something in Spanish is atop the graveyard jumble, ad for Mariscos Bicentenario and other local items, but can`t catch any identifiable addresses; 1328 mentions mil trescientos cuarenta, frequency in Spanish, later sounds Spanglish. I was hoping that was name of a restaurant which could be Googled to some 1340 town, but the few hits lead to Chile; unlikely to be CB134, CC134 or CD134. Apparently it is the name of a dish instead, and of course the bicentennial of Mexico is in progress, but doubt it`s unAmerican. As the signal was somewhat steady, suspect it could have just been KJMU Sand Springs OK, near Tulsa if they are now doing any such programming (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9825, S9+15 open carrier with hum, Nov 20 at 0613. Nothing scheduled on 9825 between 0300 and 0755. NHK Yamata is next, but this signal could be RFI via GUF tuning up for Spanish from 1000. Only guesses (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15141.5-SSB, Nov 20 at 1436 Spanish 2-way, het from 15140, presumably OMAN, which fails to assert any dominance over this frequency, the day before marred by OTH radar (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Subject: [HCDX] Radio Free S'wak goes on air .

Radio Free Sarawak, is aimed as an alternative voice for Sarawakians.
In an e-mail to FMT, the Bruno Manser Foundation, said that the new alternative radio station will have two daily broadcasts on shortwave, presumably in Iban and Bahasa Malaysia.

"It aims at Sarawak's rural communities who lack access to independent media," stated the e-mail.

It is an open secret that the media in Sarawak are strictly controlled by the state government under Chief Minister Abdul Taib Mahmud and logging companies who own and control all major media outlets in the state.

The transmission details of Radio Free Sarawak are as follows:

1st transmission: 0630-0730 local time (GMT +8) on 7590 kHz (short wave)

2nd transmission: 1800-1900 local time (GMT +8) on 15680 kHz (short wave)

The e-mail had also attached a message from the producers of Radio Free Sarawak. Below is the message;

"Please send the details to all your Sarawak friends so that they know the existence of the radio-which will become an alternative news source to the Sarawakians, especially to those who stay in the interior.

"The folks in the interior have been fed with a monotonous one-sided views from the ruling parties-if at all they can receive the TV and radio transmissions. So they need another avenue-and Radio Free Sarawak intends to fill in this gap."(http://www.freemalaysiatoday.com)

so maybe German service via Sitkunai-LTU will use 3955 kHz at 259degr antenna instead of 6105 kHz ?

Subject: [HCDX] Iran on B10 already

IRIB seems to have started using the B-10 schedule already, as now (Sat 30 Oct 2010) at 20:30 they started the Spanish programme on 5950 and 7200 kHz. The A-10 channels 7300 and 9780 are empty. The Sitkunai relay 6055 is still on the air in parallel. The speaker still announces the A-10 frequencies, though.

Hello,

SWR does confirm reception reports with QSL, but there might be quite long delay in responding. I had to wait almost one year for QSL from them! And they also hope to receive IRC tickets to cover mail expenses.

Unfortunately, I don't know anything about QSL policy of Radio Hami.

Dear colleagues,

would be glad to have any info about the QSL policy of these two SW stations from Finland.
Sent two reports via usual post  in July and August, but could not get any answers from them, even any response by email...

Thanks for any explanations.

It certainly is R?dio Clube Portugu?s, broadcasting on 1035 kHz, from Benavente, a few tens of km from Lisbon, with nonstop music from the '60s and '70s. The following ID is only transmitted on top of the hour: "R?dio Clube". It was announced a couple of months ago that this station will change its name to Star FM, but this hasn't happened yet.

Hi!
In the last days I have been listening to an UNID station on 1035 KHz with non stop oldies music. No Id heard until now.

It could be Portugal testing?

Any idea will be highly welcome!

Subject: [HCDX] Zimbabwe Police Raid Homes,     Civic Groups Seeking
       Short-Wave Radios

Police in Zimbabwe's Matabeleland South province have been raiding non-governmental organizations and visiting homes demanding the surrender of wind-up short-wave radios associated with the Voice of America's Studio 7 program for Zimbabwe.

Civic activist Jastone Mazhale, chairman of the Gwanda Agenda, said police on Thursday visited his office and questioned him over the radios. Mazhale said the police officers indicated they were acting on orders from police headquarters in Harare.

Police are said to have raided households suspected of possessing such radios. Wind-up short-wave radios have been awarded to Studio 7 listeners in promotional contests and drawings, most recently in connection with Studio 7's LiveTalk call-in program.

Mazhale told Studio 7 that the effort to confiscate radios was an attempt to silence dissenting voices as the country braces for possible elections next year.

"They want people to listen to negative propaganda broadcast by the state-controlled Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation linked to ZANU-PF," he said.(VOA News)

Peru, 6019.27, Radio Victoria, 1010-1020, There seemed to be a program with different individuals in Spanish conversation.   Noted a strong presents of splatter from 6030KHz
on the band.   Victoria was only at a poor level. (Chuck Bolland, November 21, 2010)

Bolivia, 6134.825, Radio Santa Cruz, 1018-1030,   At tune in, noted a female in Spanish

Others joined the conversation after a few moments. Signal was fair. (Chuck Bolland, November 21, 2010)

Peru, 5024.93, Radio Quillabamba, 1030-1045, Unfortunately Rebelde is dominating this frequency.   But noted some activity from Quillabamba as Rebelde fades every once in awhile.   Tried notching Rebelde out, but to no avail.   (Chuck Bolland, November 21, 2010)

Thanks Fernando for your help. I already suspected it was R?dio Clube, but I didn't manage to hear any ID. Anyway signal is much weaker than usual. The dominant station on this channel here is RAI now and in the past R?dio Clube was clearly dominant. Perhaps they are testing with a lower power...

** AUSTRALIA [non]. 11550, fair at 2242 UT Saturday Nov 20, English lesson, M & W with English words and phrases, pauses for listeners to repeat, and explanations in Indonesian. It`s RA via Tainan, TAIWAN, per Aoki, 2200-2330.

BTW, no hint of this in HFCC B-10. Altho the listings seem more complete now, there is not a single entry for TWN, as the ChiCom continue to forbid HFCC from including its breakaway province, even when it concerns relays of other stations having nothing to do with the mainland. Do HFCC participants (except China) have a secret schedule from Taiwan to consult anyway? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHAD [and non]. 6165, Saturday Nov 20 at 2255, fair signal with hilifish music, 2300 French announcements but could not make out an ID or sign-off, yet 2301 right into military band with anthem to 2302*. RNT presumably still signs off a semihour earlier on days other than Saturday. And Jean-Michel Aubier reports it`s about to get whammed by KBS World Radio via France on 6165 at 2100-2200 starting Dec 1, in French to Africa!

What are they thinking? Poor Chad is not in HFCC, so ignore it! And why should Chad bother, with only one active SW transmitter? Will it be driven back to 4905, or even 7120? And what about Croatia, also on 6165? Another failure of frequency management, by KBS and/or M&B/TDF, relying on documents rather than turning on a radio, or godforbid, consulting DX bulletins to find out what is really on a frequency before picking it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. Firedrake Nov 21:
8400, good at 1351; not on 10500 but did not do a complete bandscan (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CROATIA [non]. I`ve been intending to confirm the supposed time for English from V of Croatia, 2315 UT on 7375 via GERMANY. Guess what I hear when I tune in Nov 20 at 2314? DRM noise, from 7370! No trace of Zagreb. What does HFCC say? Nothing! No DRM on 7370 except Romania at 2100-2130. But didn`t Vatican used to DRM on 7365-7370-7375? Aoki says it still does: ``7370 VATICAN RADIO(DRM) 2300-2345 1234567 English (Digital) 125 300 Santa Maria di Galeria CVA 01219E 4203N VAT b10``

At 0001 UT Nov 21, with Vatican DRM off, HRV becomes audible in Croatian on 7375, as another Wertachtal transmitter is added at 300 degrees, while before 2400 it`s only to South America at 240 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. RHC into Sunday-morning mode Nov 21: at 1406, 13680 is off the air but 13750 is on with open carrier, also 17750. Modulation cuts on at 1410 with Cartas a la Redacci?n, or is it Amigos de Cuba?

1435 once again Encuentro DX at its new hour-later time, including a plug for a Colombian non-broadcast station with bilingual podcasts, including some English, Radio Ciudad Global, http://www.radiociudadglobal.com where we see they have a new program of their own each week, plus some from R. Bulgaria, R. M?xico Internacional.

Missing last week, but RHC`s Esperanto service is back this Sunday, Nov 21 at 1510. Need to check again at 2100 on 11760, 2230 on 15370, no-shows last week.

Meanwhile, RHC Spanish had Mundo de la Filatelia at its new 1510 hour-later time on 17750, 15370, 15230, 13750, 11730, 11690.

By 1702, Al?, Presidente should be underway, but instead all frequencies on the air have RHC music in //: 17750, 15370, 15230, 13750, 13680-weak, 11760, 11730-weak, 11690-vs RTTY (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDONESIA. 9526-, VOI not off the air this Sunday, Nov 21 at 1349, music with the usual IADs, one of them lasting a couple seconds (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MALAYSIA. 9750, Nov 21 at 1349, Qur`an is atop NHK Japanese, and some flutter. Yesterday I assumed Kuwait more likely, but having consulted Aoki, I now assume Malaysia is as likely since it says the RTM program in A10 at 08-10 and 14-16 was Voice of Islam, alternating with Voice of Malaysia at 06-08, 10-14, 16-18 --- altho this was 11 minutes too early by that schedule. Perhaps further monitoring here, or from further west can resolve which be which. Maybe I can even compare it to Kuwait shortpath on 21540 vs Spain (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PHILIPPINES. 9435, Nov 20 at 2228 ``Jesus Saves`` IS, and opening Indonesian from FEBC Manila, VG signal. Rechecked a few minutes later at 2236, heard YL preacher with muezzin in background, as if Christianity is overriding Islam, a bit insensitive (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SAIPAN. The Robert E. Kamosa Transmitting Station, 9715, carrier seems OK now, but Russian modulation of R. Svoboda still defective, Nov 21 at 1345, some breakup and IADs; sounds like lo-quality internet feed. This and Tinian come up for bids every few years, and the same private contractor keeps getting renewed (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TUNISIA [and non]. 7275, Nov 20 at 0625 RTT with secular music, Arabic announcements and still cutting off abruptly at 0627* after a few sex of open carrier; continuing on 7335 which until 0620 had co-channel from Vatican`s Scandinavian service. Don`t you believe HFCC that Tunisia does not start 7335 until 0700. Those registrations are about an hour late, as recently heard starting a few minutes before 0600 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U K [non]. 7385, UT Saturday Nov 20, surprised to find BBCWS on yet another unfamiliar frequency, news reports, IDed at 2312 as World Today. Whence? HFCC shows WHRI at 23-02 on 7385! Another BBC relay has snuk in? No, WHRI is M-F only, while BBC is daily at 23-24 only, 250 kW, 25 degrees from THAILAND so also USward: another one-hour broadcast in the incredible fragmentation of the BBCWS instead of keeping several good and long-established frequencies and running them for hours and hours. So it`s blocked on weekdays if WHRI is really on rather than wooden. And have the floodwaters receded at Nakhon Sawan? If drowned out, BBC might well substitute another site (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7415, WBCQ on very late again UT Sunday, Nov 21 at 0611 with Doobie Bros; 0628 Ted Randall with his QSO Radio Show, then Handyman by James Taylor. Maybe is open-ended, I wonder how much later? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific MW carrier search, Nov 21: on the DX-398 in USB mode upward from 1320 UT: weakies on 747, 774, 828, 1422. The first three no doubt the usual NHKs, while 1422 in decreasing order of power listed could be China, Taiwan, Japan. Enid sunrise today was 1315; might have been more productive in previous semihour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Subject: [HCDX] RAE

RAE Argentina's Public National Radio's Foreign Service broadcasts on the Short Waves to the whole planet.

RAE was originally established as International Service of the Argentine Republic, under the acronym SIRA on April 11th, 1949, by then President Juan Domingo Per?n. It transmitted 24/7 in seven languages.

After a coup d'etat -the so-called "Liberating Revolution"- toppled Peron, SIRA was shut down, re initiating transmissions in 1958, under the present name of Radiodifusi?n Argentina al Exterior.

RAE is part of Radio Televisi?n Argentina, the State-ran company that groups the National Public media of Argentina, and is based at the Buenos Aires building of Radio Nacional, the public AM Station.

RAE's programs focus on Argentine current affiars, culture, tourism, science, sports, interviews, geography, history, and biographies of outstanding Argentines of the most varied fields. It also airs Argentine music, mainly Tango and Folk, and there's a weekly cycle on Argentine Rock. Twice a week there's a feature aimed at DXers.

RAE's programs are aired in seven languages: Spanish, English, Italian, Portuguese, German, French and Japanese.

Some of the contents aired by RAE are generated by LRA Radio Nacional, so Argentines living abroad can be in touch with their homeland. On weekends, RAE transmitts football matches on a paralell with Radio Nacional.

Bolivia, 5970, Radio Panamericana,(pres), 2210-2230 Noted a male in Spanish language comments down in the noise.  Judging from the nuances, it sounds like a sporting event being described; however, at 2222 a female joins the group.  Neglected to mention it, but a second station is also on the freq and it is slightly better, thus covering Panamericana somewhat.  Panamericana is threshold.   (Chuck Bolland, November 21, 2010)

Bolivia, 6025.09, Radio Illimani,(TENT/Doubtful), 2245-2359,   Steady butterfly type music
 without any breaks.  At around 2258 Spanish comments by a male.  After the hour, religious/ Church music and comments.  Noise increases, making anymore copy difficult. (Chuck Bolland, November 21, 2010)

Bolivia, 6134.785, Radio Santa Cruz, 2310-2325, Local popular music heard from tune in. Unfortunately  the splatter and noise blocks RSC out completely.  But it sounds like it's still audible aroun 2323 when the station on 6140 stops with music.  (Chuck Bolland, November 21, 2010)

Bolivia, 4699.97, Radio San Miguel, 2325-2330,  Noted a male in Spanish language comments.
These comments continue during the entire period. Signal was poor.  (Chuck Bolland November 21, 2010)

South Africa, 3320, Radio Sounder Grense, 2337-2355, Signal not yet faded in well enough, but

** HONDURAS. 3339.97, Radio Misiones Internacionales, 0500-0519*, Nov  21, several Spanish announcements but mostly continuous religious music.  Abrupt sign off during religious music. Poor. Weak in noisy conditions.  (Brian Alexander, PA)

** ARGENTINA. 15345, R. Nacional, Nov 21 at 2303, ``Argentina te informa; Nacional de C?rdoba; dictadura militar`` mentioned perhaps in program promo from regional station. Fair signal and improving (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** AUSTRALIA [and non]. 15240, poor signal in Strine at 2235 Nov 21, banned from HFCC but presumably R. Australia as per Aoki via Tainan, TAIWAN; 2257 had long/short path echo. Meanwhile, I could not detect RA Shepparton on 15230 under usurper CUBA; still there? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BRAZIL [and non]. 15190, R. Inconfid?ncia had not been heard for a couple of weeks, but it`s certainly on Nov 21 at 2228 making awful collision with R. Africa, EQUATORIAL GUINEA [q.v.], overmodulated/distorted. Both have heavy equatorial flutter making matters even worse. EqG signal is stronger with Tony Alamo; ZYE522 with enthusiastic Brazilians, probably sports coverage. Bata kept going almost until 2300, but then Brazil still had a hum to contend with, carrier remaining on from the other? I note corroborating log from Harold Sellers in BC, tho it seems I was getting more of a signal from BH (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. Further chex Sunday Nov 21 for the allegedly scheduled RHC broadcasts in weekly Esperanto: at 2127, 11760 in French. At 2225, 15370 with open carrier past 2230; 2233 also in French.

As suspected from last Sunday`s monitoring of other programs one UT hour later than on RHC`s former and still published schedule, En Contacto is again later for its second known airing, Nov 21 from 2242:30 on 15230, 11770, 11730, 9820, 6140, 5040, preceded by El Mundo de la Filatelia with requests for stamp exchanges from El Salvador; and succeeded by Cuba Campesina a quarter-hour later. I say ``known`` because there may be one or two more repeats between 1450 and 2242 during RHC`s continuous all-day but schedule-less programming (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [non]. 5936, no trace of R. Rep?blica or anything, Nov 21 at 2244, nor jamming, unlike the noise around 5954-5955. Terry Krueger
says another very weak R.R. was heard on 5936.22 at 0038 Nov 15, now sure to be jammed. No doubt it`s another low power nuisance transmitter (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 9305, R. Cairo, Nov 21 at 2249, Arabic, VG signal strength but horribly distorted and splattering plus/minus 15 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EQUATORIAL GUINEA [and non]. 15190, R. Africa, also has convicted child molester Tony Alamo on its Sunday evening air, Nov 21 at 2228 but making awful mix with ZYE522; see BRAZIL. Remained the same almost until 2300, Alamo mumbling doctrine with his YL sidekick (long dead wife, or molestee?), yet overmodulated, distorted, and with heavy equatorial flutter. A bit of music at 2258 must have been a wrap, as when retuned a couple minutes later only hearing Brasil, but hum perhaps still coming from Bata carrier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GUAM. 15320 KSDA, UT Sunday Nov 21 at 2230, AWR Wavescan opening theme, 2233 Jeff White narrating script about RCA and Rocky Point LINY; later the heavily struxured JSWC report. Good reception, better, I daresay than we normally get from WRMI itself, which only aims outward from CONUS (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** JAPAN. 13650, NHKWNRJ IS in well at an odd time, 2237 Nov 21. That`s because they are about to open a 20-minute broadcast in Chinese, followed by three more third-hours until 2400 in Thai, Vietnamese, Burmese (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NETHERLANDS [non]. 15280, Nov 21 at 2229, boards creaking and doors squeaking, other sound effects, pauses past 2231. 2232 Indonesian mentions ``elektro-akustik``. Good signal but has squeal on carrier to add to the mystique. Not // 11550 R. Australia via Taiwan, so must be R. Netherlands. Yes, this is one of two transmissions on their schedule via SAIPAN, 1234567:
2159 2257 SAI 15280 225 31-10-2010 27-03-2011 100 RNW Ind INDONce
0759 0827 SAI 15750 180 31-10-2010 27-03-2011 100 RNW Nld eAU/INDONe

One should monitor the additional three minutes before hourtop/bottom, in case like other IBB relay deals, they get a bonus of two more sesquiminutes in some other language (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SARAWAK [non]. 7590, first time I am looking for R. Free Sarawak, scheduled 2230-2330 from secret site, Nov 21 at 2255, only a weak signal with flutter, but seems like dead air and/or then undermodulated. Did not get any better by 2305. Presumed this, as nothing else yet scheduled in this frequency-hour. Could it be via Angel 4, PALAU, already known to be site for the other broadcast at 1000-1100 on 15680, since Alan Pennington soon heard that // on the Angel 4 stream? Now I check WHR online schedules, to find:

Angel 4:
1000-1100 5:00-6:00 AM Su,Mo,Tu,We,Th,Fr,Sa Radio Percuma 15.680 MHz

Percuma? That`s a new name for it. What does Percuma mean? I Google translate it first in Indonesian, and get ``useless`` --- then in Malay and get ``free`` --- so much for the two languages being almost identical! This must amuse Indonesians. Maybe the full ID in Malay is ``Radio Percuma Sarawak`` or ``Radio Sarawak Percuma`` --- the c is probably pronounced like tj or ch as in Aceh; altho they say they are mainly using the local language Iban.

But schedule for the same transmitter reminds us it is occupied by R. Australia during this hour, on 13590, which I also heard today:
2200-0000 6:00-7:00 PM Su,Mo,Tu,We,Th,Fr,Sa ABC Radio 13.590 MHz
And Angel 3 is otherwise accounted for with WHR programming on 9930.

Steve Lare points out that Aoki already shows 7590 as via TAJIKISTAN, but also for 15680, the latter certainly not correct. Considering the poor reception here, Tajikistan could certainly be right for 7590, but who knows for sure? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9385, tuned in Nov 21 at 2247 just as WWRB announcer was talking over Brother Scare that it`s time to retune to 3215, and off at 2248*. OK, I keep checking 3215 every few minutes but nothing there until 2304, so it came on sometime after previous check 2257. Does it need to take that long to retune the transmitter?

No doubt BS psycophants followed instruxions and waited some 12 minutes vacantly staring at the radio, enjoying the noise until The Last Day Prophet of God magically was resurrected on 3185 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9325, Nov 21 at 2247 open carrier, 2250 tone test; presumably IBB tuning up for VOA Burmese via SRI LANKA at 2300-2330 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

** ANTARCTICA. Another week starts with no signal from Radio Nacional Arc?ngel San Gabriel, Base Esperanza, 15476 checked Nov 22 at 1352 (while Turkey was OK on 15480), and at 1419. Last time LRA36 was detected here: Nov 12. So off the air, or totally unpropagating? Conosuristas ought to be able to tell (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. Firedrake Nov 22:
8400 and 10500, nothing at 1344.
8400 at 1542, very poor, still no 10500 nor any others found in incomplete interim bandscan (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [and non]. 9955, DentroCuban Jamming Command, UT Monday Nov 22 at 0624, heavy pulsing atop WRMI music, altho during this quarter hour on the schedule is Maravillosas Palabras, religious talk rather than music.

RHC DXers Unlimited ending at 0632 UT Monday Nov 22 on 6150, 6060, 6010, so if ~12 minutes long, started around 0620. NO signal on 6050! First time found absent since that started Nov 8. Was this an all-too-common fluke, or has Arnie finally been persuaded by HCJB to get off their frequency? Had not checked 6050 earlier in the evening; starts circa 0100 and normally stays on until 1100, switching to Spanish at 0700. No replacement found, e.g. 5970 also vacant. This was also good news for KBS World Radio Spanish listeners on 6045 via Sackville at 06-07.

11760 missing Nov 22 at 1347 allowing BBC OMAN to be heard; see UK, but RHC back on by 1357.

Spurs showing up again, distorted and mushy on 13950 and about 13921, Nov 22 at 1413, much weaker than normal leapfrog on 13880, and much, much weaker than fundamentals 13780 and 13680, the spurs probably originating from the lower one which squeals. No others found closer to 13680 nor below it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** FRANCE [non?]. 17620, RFI with usual hum on this frequency, so GUF rather than ISS? Nov 22 at 1422 playing Elvis, ``Are You Lonesome Tonight``, except he keeps breaking up and laughing, so must have been from a live performance; then H&F commenting on that in French (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** JAPAN. 5955, NHK World Radio Japan, Nov 22 at 1404 in English news, interrupted by musical stingers between items, meaning fewer items can be conveyed in the time available; mid ID 1405 as above, no longer inserting --Network--, or is it optional; sufficient reception with some ACI from NZ 5950 especially during music. For Asia, as Japan blew off its North American English listeners at 1400. 1410 in discussion of Ireland`s economy and the EuroZone.

Since it`s available via OKLA at a convenient time, I find myself watching NHK World Newsline on TV more than SW, weekdays at 1700-1728 UT, and comparisons with NHK radio are unavoidable. Overall, the standard of English is much better on the radio! The TV anchor has a heavy accent, but he`s a lot better than many of the academic `experts` brought into the studio to read their carefully translated scripts, mostly with accents so severe they are hard to understand. At least they try, unlike 99.9% of Americans who couldn`t speak more than three words of Japanese.

OTOH, the curvy weatherwomen later in the broadcast (is one of them pregnant? Time will tell) speak good English and some of them appear to be Americans, or semi-Japanese. This is the only way we can get any Oklahoma weather on OETA! NHK provides just E Asian, European and North American weather maps, where Celsius lives!

This is a good source of news about Japan and elsewhere in Asia, with clips coming in from other broadcasters such as BTV Bangladesh, MCOT Thailand, CCTV China. Beware: it`s sum-o-h season again, and there are also weekdaily reports on those matches, sometimes by an American guy, but back to a Japanese Nov 22 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH [non]. 5910, Shiokaze, Monday Nov 22 at 1402, YL in Japanese this Monday, with piano music. No jamming audible against JSR, JAPAN, unlike 5890 vs VOA Korean (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KUWAIT [and non]. 9750 with Qur`an is definitely Kuwait, not Malaysia. Nov 22 at 1340 signal is very poor mixed with Japan/ese but I start to monitor 21540 where Kuwait mixes with Spain, also very poor, but in a few minutes at 1343 I can hear a match. (What happened to the dramas in Arabic that used to appear around 1330?).

9750 could be long or short path, aimed 275 degrees from Kabd, while 21540 is certainly short. Since there is no sign of a third station on 9750, now we wonder if Malaysia is really active on that frequency then, or at any time? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OMAN. 15140, I seek the English broadcast most mornings between 14 and 15, usually without result, only traces, and/or OTHR, SSB QRM, but Nov 22 at 1433 it`s barely making it, YL with English news, VP tho metering S9+10 peaks, only problem being bits of splat from WYFR 15130. Occasional words readable, such as at 1436 about SE China coal mine rescue of 29, but do they include any news about Oman itself?? 1438.5 starts mixing music with talk, and 1440 OM says ``Radio Sultanate of Oman presents ---`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN. REE Basque reconfirmed Monday Nov 22 at 1337 on 21610, 21570; 21540 mixed with Qur`an from Kuwait, q.v. Last week we found all REE frequencies back in Castilian well before 1400, and today at 1353 recheck, 15170 via Costa Rica had song in Spanish, 1355 promo in Spanish for REE as ``la emisora que une ---``. So Euskera lasts considerably less than a full semihour from 1330 M-F (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U K [non]. 11760, RHC missing Nov 22 at 1347 allowing BBCWS in English to be audible, with hum; discussion of ambiguous gender identity among infants and children. A little better on // 15575, outro as Health Check. Back on 11760 at 1357, RHC has resumed with IS over BBC, site OMAN 07-14 at 320 degrees intended for Iraq and Iran but also USward. At 14-15 changes to Cyprus, 90 degrees, same as at 06-07. Meanwhile, did not hear any CRI English on 11760, also scheduled 12-14, southeastward from Kunming.

11830, BBCWS in English, 95 degrees from Rampisham, audible here Nov 22 at 1514 underneath WYFR in Chinese blasting right at us, 315 degrees from Okeechobee (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5110v-CUSB, UT Monday Nov 22 after 0300, WORLD OF RADIO 1539 in temporary timing via Area 51, WBCQ, to happen again Nov 29 before Pirates` Week resumes its usual slot in December. Good reception here; hope some other night times on WBCQ can be obtained (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VENEZUELA [non]. 11680, RNV via CUBA, Monday Nov 22 at 1501 YL opening in stilted English, reading scripts far too literally translated, still or again in English at 1510, but at 1520 in Spanish, 1530 English, then Ch?vez in Spanish. It is impossible for a single hour to go by without hearing from and about El Hugazo for a considerable fraxion of that time on this propaganda outlet as if nothing happen in Venezuela without concerning him; the state, it`s he. This transmission gets lost on Sundays when transmitters are tied up with the more often than not no-shows of El Hugazo on five other frequencies (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6074, once again CW from 8GAL started before 1400, at 1359:45 Nov 22, mixing with motorboat from R. Rossii, Pet/Kam, 6075 which stayed on until a sesquiminute past the hour. Except it was not the usual V/CQ marker de 8GAL. I could not copy all the letters but I definitely heard a U ..- which is not part of the usual marker. And there was a long dash --- at the end, held down the key. On occasions before, non-8GAL messages have appeared here, perhaps conveying some axual intelligence (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Hi, Artur and friends,
Since yesterday, R?dio Clube Portugu?s is over. Now the station is called Star FM. On 1035 kHz, instead of a radio focused on news and comments, one can hear an oldies radio. Very frequent IDs saying "Star FM, o regresso dos cl?ssicos".

Thanks Fernando for your help. I already suspected it was R?dio Clube, but I didn't manage to hear any ID. Anyway signal is much weaker than usual. The dominant station on this channel here is RAI now and in the past R?dio Clube was clearly dominant. Perhaps they are testing with a lower power...

** BRAZIL [and non]. 15190, another check Nov 22 for the collision between R. Africa, Equatorial Guinea, and R. Inconfid?ncia, Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais: at 2239 convicted child-molesting evangelist Tony Alamo is on top from EqG, maybe a hint of ZYE522 under, but there is lots of flutter and with BFO, the frequency is extremely unstable, apparently due to Doppler effects in the equatorial ionosphere, as previously R. Africa was quite stable.

At 2256 still Doppler, but only hearing Portuguese vs the EqG carrier. 2259 that carrier goes off leaving Brasil clearly in Portuguese, but also with unstable carrier. With BFO off, the modulation sounds OK. 2300 mentions Inconfid?ncia, then full ID for MW, SW and FM with callsigns for each frequency. There is so much instability on the carrier that it cannot be zero-beat.

The only other signal anywhere close on 19m is RAE on 15345v. Its carrier is somewhat wobbly, but much less so than 15190. It`s really difficult to sort out what is propagational and what is real transmitter instability, so it could be 15190 is unstable as it goes out from the antenna; or both that and Doppler, and making EqG seem worse than it really is until closing (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1670, talking houses of Greg Winkeljohn continue to be missing from the Enid X-band, but now there`s a new one from someone else, on 1690:

Nov 22 at 1921 UT in central Enid I hear a YL voice loop on 1690. She speaks slowly and clearly with some long pauses. Spends as much time promoting the TH concept as about the axual house broadcasting on this frequency. Details: Samantha Sabedra of Smith Real Estate, claims to be the only realtor (here) offering this service, plus a free video about TH.

Now she`s pushing 3509 McClaflin Drive, which is in the Pioneer school district (rural SE of Enid), on a school bus route. Phone 580-354-7279. I had never heard of this street but found it on a city map and got correct spelling. It`s in a development at the SE corner of Enid, S of Owen K. Garriott = US 412, and east of 30th Street.

No website announced, but I found her here, so also spell her name right: http://www.samanthakennington.com/default.html
The address above is not among the 13 Featured Homes linked therefrom. Nor is there anything about TH on the website.

I vaguely recall hearing her a couple years ago in a previous talking house spate. Yes, in DXLD 8-095, ``1570 kHz, around 2000 Aug 28, 2008, found new talking house at 1330 West Elm`` voiced by the same Sam.

Altho it is not on the way to anywhere I normally go, no doubt eventually I will get out to 3509 McClaflin and make the usual inspexion for antennas, evaluate Part 15 strength. Since it has a good signal halfway across town, I suspect it is excessive. OTOH, on the west side of Enid it is losing out, and once skywave is starting to kick in by 2112 UT, Denver and Chicago are atop 1690. Heard alone, the signal seemed clean, on BFO-less caradio, but as QRM to broadcasters it sounds a bit mushy like Winkeljohn`s 1670 transmitters (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SARAWAK [non]. 7590, Nov 22 at 2230 I am standing by for R. Free Sarawak (Percuma), but there is only an extremely weak signal, and it gets no better past 2300 or at 2325, hardly any modulation detectable, presumably Tajikistan site. The other airing, 1000-1100 on 15680 via Palau is a bit inconvenient for those who sleep (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN [and non]. Emisi?n Sefarad from REE, 15385 as usual on Mondays, fair signal at 1425-1455 Nov 22 for ME; could not reconfirm the repeat to SAm at 0115-0145 Nov 23 UT Tuesday on 11780, as too much Bras?lia, and Europe not really propagating on 25m. Nothing audible on 11795 either, its former and should be future frequency in the clear (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U K [non]. 7385, BBCWS, poor but audible at 2326 Nov 22 via THAILAND. Heard 48 hours earlier, without QRM de scheduled WHRI, which I assumed would be weekdays only, but not there on Monday either --- more wooden registrations from LeSEA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1560, Nov 22 at 2159 UT on caradio, dominant signal is from Family Radio, then quick and clear ID ``KKAA, Aberdeen``, i.e., South Dakota. At 10 kW day and night, hi-band, this is the best MW DX bet for many from this state, unless there is some other transmitter with a COL across the state line. There is only one SD station on a higher frequency, but with much lower power: 1570, KVTK Vermillion, 500/71 watts.

Too bad it`s the same apocalyptic nonsense one can already get on dozens of SW frequencies and hundreds of FM translators and relays. I assume from May 21, 2011, KKAA will self-destruct or suddenly become for sale. One might also want to stand by to scoop up all the empty piles of clothes on the ground; full wallets too, I suppose, if anything is left after The Foolish Faithful have given countless millions to keep Harold Camping`s monomania going (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** WESTERN SAHARA [non]. 6297.1, SASASAM, Nov 22 at 2251 emphatic speech, into soft music and talk in presumed Hassania Arabic.

Harold Frodge in MI had been hearing R. Bulgaria on 6300 at 2215 in English // 7400, but I am sure I would have noticed it if still there at 2251; must have been a punch-up error, supposed to be on 6200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 21664.5-SSB, approx., no broadcasters audible on 13m, Nov 22 at 2244, but found someone calling ``ola, ola`` a few times around this frequency. 15m was open at least from a CO in Cuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

TAJIKISTAN  {tent.}  Last European night Nov 22/23 the propagation path was wide open from East Asia / PAC. Heard all Chinese/Koreans here in Europe etc.

Heard also the R. Free Sarawak 7590 for the first time on a level above threshold. At 2245 UT Nov 22, S=9+10dB, talking in undoubtedly Malay or similar vernac. Most probably via Dushanbe relay, as widely reported.

UNID  11715 in 8-9 UT slot noted often an Unidentified Chinese talking station, S=6-7 fair signal here in EUR. Probably a Taiwanese outlet, which scheduled later the day on this channel.

Tawain, 7280, SOH Xi Wang Zhi Sh,(pres), 1155-1205, Noted a male and female in chinese language comments which was probably news judging from the format.  At 1158 canned promos of somekind.  Not sure if this is Tawain, but the Mainland China broadcast usually go silent at 57 minutes before the hour.  This station went into  the promos mentioned above.   On the hour five time tones, four short and one long.  This was followed by  possibly the ID.   Happy music follows with canned comments from a child and female.  Signal was good. (Chuck Bolland, November 23, 2010)

Unident 5954.220, Radio Republica, 0135-0200, With a male in Spanish language comments with occasional ID heard.   Lot's of noise this evening.   Signal remains at a poor leverl however. (Chuck Bolland, November 23, 2010)

** ANTARCTICA. 15476, LRA36 still missing, Nov 23 at 1356 and 1415 chex (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. Firedrake Nov 23:
 8400, very poor at 1341; fair at 1430
10500, poor at 1341; gone at 1430, instead some SSB.
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. Has RHC finally acceded to HCJB and removed itself from La Voz de los Andes` frequency forever, and now the only one left, 6050, since RHC was missing from it Nov 22 at 0632?

No! Next check Nov 23 at 0200, RHC English still/again on 6050 obliterating HCJB here and no doubt seriously QRMing it around Ecuador. And at 0609 this date RHC English on 6050, plus 6010, 6060, 6150, overkill. Meanwhile, Havana`s ex-5970 goes begging for an occupant after Spain is finished at 0100.

Perhaps Arnie needs a face-saving way to make a compromise and resolve this totally unnecessary collision. Of course, HCJB takes a break between 0503 and 0827. He could reduce RHC usage of 6050 to the English 0500-0700 only (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** FRANCE [non]. 6185, world news in Spanish, Nov 23 at 0611 including some clips in English, over SAH from Vatican. This has to be Radio Educaci?n, XEPPM, but certainly not produced by them. Yes, at 0616 outro, it`s de Radio Francia Internacional, RFI; perhaps a midnight regular in Mexico; delayed from 0100? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GUAM. 5765-USB, AFN, Ron Howard says was gone again Nov 22, but I can barely hear it Nov 23 at 1346, some music underneath heavy RTTY, which never used to bother this frequency. Perhaps some higher-priority military traffic is forcing AFN to get off?

How is their day frequency doing, which I have been remiss in checking since it`s so far out of band? Aoki shows ``13362 AFN LOS ANGELES 2200-0800 1234567 English 3 ND Barrigada GUM 14449E 1329N`` while 5765 runs 0800-2200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA. 9870, Nov 23 at 1442, VG signal but fluttery from AIR VBS with traditional Indian music, sadly marred by IADs, which are less frequent but longer than those on VOI 9526-. Strangely, the other two AIR 31m frequencies, 9690 GOS, and 9425 National Channel, provided not even carriers, so altho their reception always diverges widely from 9870, I must conclude that two of the three, all supposed to be from Bengaluru, were really off the air. I think I had noticed signs of 9690 an hour earlier, however (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDONESIA. 9526-, Nov 23 at 1312 quick check to reconfirm VOI is doing another Exotic Indonesia hookup on Tuesday with RRI Banjarmasin, as Banj guy is taking turns with Jak announcer in news items. As always, interrupted by IADs, so I`m not going to put myself thru this, and have plenty else to monitor during this hour. Next check 1337, introducing this week`s feature from Banjarmasin, still with IADs; and signal is not so strong today, bothered by ACI from 9530 Chinese, i.e. ChiCom jamming and/or VOA Philippines (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** IRAN. 15550, VOIRI in Arabic, Nov 23 at 1416, poor but free of QRMilton, no sign of SSB; until later: see U S A (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** JAPAN. Let not breaking news get in the way of local holidays: NHK World Newsline Tuesday Nov 23 contracted from 28 to only 10 minutes at 1700 UT via OETA OKLA, as has happened occasionally before. Usual anchor missing, replaced by an anchorette named Fukushima who speaks much better English, perhaps a semi-American. Lead story was the war between N&S Korea, but soon on to truncated other items, including very brief weather, just grafix, Sumo summary by the gaijin who has more of an Aussie than an American accent, and 1710 to filler from Kyoto, all about how and why wagashi are made, which I must admit was quite interesting and lovely to look at (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH [non]. 5910, Shiokaze via JSR Tokyo, Nov 23 at 1404 this Tuesday it`s in Chinese with usual piano background (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KUWAIT. 15540, glad to have reports from Mike Barraclough, England, and Jorge Freitas, Brasil, that R. Kuwait is still audible with English, checked between 1805 and 1921 UT Nov 22. So I try again Nov 23 at 1902: not even a carrier making it here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** LIBYA [and non]. 17800 NF, two signals mixing, Nov 23 at 1410; one is in German, so it can`t be from Germany, but probably is from DW, and the other one conveniently IDs immediately in English as ``Voice of Africa``. Yes, Libya is missing from 17725, has moved to 17800 where it collides with Deutsche Welle, at this hour and the next, 250 kW, 80 degrees from Sines, PORTUGAL. By 1451 still a mix with VOA atop, but at 1532 German was atop. 17725 is otherwise unoccupied, no reason in the world to leave it; // is still on 21695, much weaker today, and 17800 has the usual rippling Libyan modulation.

No, 17800 is not one of the frequencies TDF has imaginatively registered for Libya via Issoudun: 1400-1600 English is claimed to be on 21675, 21695, the latter instead of Sabrata, which we do not believe.

If Libya is also using 17800 for Swahili at 12-14, as it did 17725, that too collides with DW, but via Rwanda in French and Hausa (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. See FRANCE [non], XEPPM relays RFI

** NEW ZEALAND. 5950, Nov 23 at 1347, RNZI ending Tradewinds show mentioning Tahiti, engineered by Myra Oh; good signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1690, checking for Talking House on home rig, Nov 23 at 1336 UT, I am not hearing it, just WVON claiming there is only one place to go for seafood in Chicago, which I find unlikely in such a megacity. But there is NO place to go in Enid for seafood in particular, except as an add-on to Chinese restaurants. Yesterday`s reception could have been a test from Smith Realty`s office in central Enid at 528 N Van Buren, rather than the house cited/sited in far SE Enid? But at 1730 with no skywave, Samantha`s spiel is again audible (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SAUDI ARABIA [and non]. 15435, collision at 1456 Nov 23 as BSKSA OC is already on and 1456.5 adds Arabic modulation. Meanwhile it is making fast SAH with some station playing vocal music, but that stops at 1457* leaving frequency to Riyadh. It`s Vatican`s Urdu service from SMG direct, so if BSKSA would wait one minute longer, there could be a clean transition and make a fine show of ?cumenism. BTW, in MS Word you make the combined o+e by control/shift/ampersand and then o, however it may appear now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 11680, another new frequency for the Walterbore, Nov 23 at 1350, relatively poor compared to // 15495, but at 1357:05* 11680 cuts him off while 15495 continues past 1400, still going at 1409 and later. DX Mix News, Bulgaria reports: ``Brother Stair TOM from Nov 18: 1300-1400 on 11680 WER 250 kW / 090 deg to SoAs`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN. 17595, REE, Nov 23 at 1452 with enlamar @ rtve.es address for Espa?oles en la Mar show ending, and then sea song by a great bass-baritone in catal?n, chopped off at 1455 as they insist on ``interrupting`` this frequency in order to change 21540 to 15385 for Africa, and say goodbye to NAm until 1800 on 17850, 1900 on 15110. IS once, and off 1456*. But we know 17595 will come right back on with equal reception in NAm after an antenna change.

At 1535 I am again listening to 17595, when there is news in French, mainly about Western Sahara and Mauritania; 1537:17 over to English by Justin Coe but different content, about Ireland, N & S Korea fighting, France agrees to extradite ETA guy, stampede on bridge in Phnom Penh kills hundreds. No news concerning Spain except the ETA item indirectly.

After exactly three minutes, Justin introduces news in Arabic from 1540:17 starting with Korea and Russia, but Arab gets almost 4 minutes until outro in Spanish of multilingual news segment, which we first reported about three weeks ago, and allegedly also in Russian and Portuguese. When first heard Nov 2, Portuguese was first at 1530, and no Russian then either. Has it ever been included?

1545 onto next show ``Espa?ol con ?`` about how the language evolved from Latin (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN [non]. 17745, Sudan Radio Service via PORTUGAL, Nov 23 at 1533 in some kind of Arabic, at first with usual heavy echo, but as the signal fades in stronger there is less echo. I have previously concluded the echo is self-imposed in the studio to seem hip, and long/short path is unlikely, but now I am wondering if it is caused by backscatter, making a considerably longer second path if not round the world. It`s 250 kW, 114 degrees from Sines. Or they are messing with the amount of echo at the studio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U K [non]. 5875, two signals mixing Nov 23 at 1405. One is in Arabic, and I hear the BBC sounder, not sure of other language under, seems Asian. But it should be English per current registrations, as BBC is QRMing itself from two sites at once, Britons vs Britons:

1300-1600 English via THAILAND, 250 kW, 25 degrees, and
1400-1600 Arabic via CYPRUS, 300 kW, 121 degrees, so could be longpath (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. 7525, Nov 23 at 1437 VG signal in Chinese mentioning Mei-guo and Chung-guo several times, atop weak echoing Chinese jammer. So this is VOA Chinese via Tinang, PHILIPPINES, at 1400-1500 only, 250 kW, 21 degrees also USward --- and the only transmission currently scheduled at any time on 7525, per HFCC and Aoki. Should be glommed onto by other broadcasters in need of a clear 40m frequency at other dayparts.

13750, surprised to find VOA Spanish here instead of 13715, Nov 23 at 1353 with deportes report in Buenos D?as, Am?rica; // 9885, and JBA 15590. Perhaps a mistake at Greenville, caused by sub-vocalizing, as 13715 and 13750 sound much alike; where tomorrow? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 15550-USB, Nov 23 at 1416, no sign of WJHR USB vs poor signal from IRAN [q.v.] in Arabic; but other US signals at similar megameter distances from much greater stations, WWCR 15825 and WEWN 15610, were barely audible. By 1732, however, WJHR loud and clear with offensive preacher.

WJHR is about to celebrate its first anniversary on the air. How much longer is the FCC going to allow George Scott Mock to operate a low-power ham rig pretending to be a SW broadcast station, required to run 50 kW minimum? Since he can get away with it, this should open the floodgates for anyone including pirates who want to get a SWBC license to broadcast legally in SSB in the SWBC bands, saving the great expense of a real AM 50 kW SWBC transmitter (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1050, Nov 23 at 1321 UT I find a signal dominating from N/S, the ``KMOH Swap Shop`` or so it sounded, two guys discussing items for sale or rent, including a mechanical bull; mentioned Laverne, wheat fest, basketball Osborne-Columbia. Closest call in the NRC AM Log is KLOH Pipestone MN, and it`s in the right direxion, but I don`t get any significant hits searching on those names in Minnesota.

But it`s right next to South Dakota, and the KLOH website http://www.klohradio.com/ indicates impact in SD, but no significant hits there either; it shows they do have a swap shop, http://www.klohradio.com/SwapShop/Index.cfm
altho not a program by that name, but they do have two guys on the air at this time, Bill Van Hoecke / Collin Christensen per
http://www.klohradio.com/KLOH/ProgramSchedule/Index.cfm

Day power is an even 9380 watts. November sunrise is 1315 UT, but December 1400. So tentatively KLOH, an interesting station; history: http://www.klohradio.com/AboutUs/Index.cfm
LOH stands for Land Of Hiawatha, and it`s ``Stereo Country 1050``, so C-QUAM is still in use? Beginning to be bothered by WHO IBOC as I move on (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6074, 8GAL check Nov 23: at 1359 I am hearing R. Rossii concluding 6075, timesignal 1400 + 6 seconds late. Still no sign of CW on the side. But I keep listening as motorboating carrier goes off and then hear Chinese. Finally a bit after 1400 there are three long dashes, and only at 1402 the standard message starts: VVV CQ CQ CQ DE 8GAL 8GAL K (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15270-15275-15280, DRM noise Nov 23 at 1528, but nothing DRM scheduled in HFCC on any of these frequencies at any time! Tho DW is supposed to be on 15275 via Rwanda in German, analog.

Are there any reports of this in the DRMNA yg? Not since March 2008, when HCJB was using it! Is it on the current schedule here? http://www.drm-dx.de/
No! Are there any reports in the adjacent fora? Not since Dec 2008. Altho HCJB did use 15280 exactly two years ago, but it is no longer in a position to do any DRMing from Ecuador. Thus the DRM movement again shows it is not really serious, carrying out tests from somewhere with no publicity, making its audience even more minuscule (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

TAJIKISTAN  {tent.}  Last European night Nov 22/23 the propagation path was wide open from East Asia / PAC. Heard all Chinese/Koreans here in Europe etc.

Heard also the R. Free Sarawak 7590 for the first time on a level above threshold. At 2245 UT Nov 22, S=9+10dB, talking in undoubtedly Malay or similar vernac. Most probably via Dushanbe relay, as widely reported.

Subject: [HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs November 23-24, 2010

** ANTARCTICA. 15476, another LRA36-less day, no sign of it Nov 24 at 1422 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BRAZIL. 15190, Nov 23 at 2326, R. Inconfid?ncia without Equatorial Guinean QRM, during a program promo. Frequency seems unstable, flutter. Compared to Argentina 15345, which is stronger, less unstable and fluttery (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. Firedrake Nov 24:
 8400, nothing at 1405; did not make any chex before 1400. But at 1455 I am getting very poor signal, sounds like two stations, so some signs of Sound of Hope too.
10500, nothing at 1405 or 1455. Did not make total bandscan 8-18 MHz, but no others noted in most of that range swiped (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 9955, pulse jamming with tones, Nov 24 at 0616 amounts to the SSOB (strongest signal on band)! Conditions are quite degraded, with only traces of WYFR on 9985 et al., tho doing better on its 7 MHz frequencies, and no victim WRMI audible at all on 9955, during scheduled UT Wednesday CDHD Brigade 2506 exile show in English (which I heard part of later at 1545 on webcast, discussing American-born Marco Rubio and prospects for Republicans in Congress). Nothing to explain this situation from WWV:

``Geophysical Alert Message
Solar-terrestrial indices for 23 November follow.
Solar flux 75 and mid-latitude A-index 7.
The mid-latitude K-index at 0600 UTC on 24 November was 1 (7 nT).
No space weather storms were observed for the past 24 hours.
No space weather storms are expected for the next 24 hours``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GUAM. 5765-USB, AFN missing again Nov 24 at 1348. Seems to be on one day, off the next, but sometime we fear it will stay off. Also looked for the daytime frequency 13362.5, which is supposed to start at 2200 per Aoki, but no sign of it Nov 23 at 2325. Is it really in use at all? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GUIANA FRENCH. 17875-17880-17885, more unscheduled DRM noise, Nov 24 at 1354, but gone at 1448 recheck. This plus yesterday`s DRM on 15270-15275-15280 is belatedly explained by:

``FYI, today November 24th, a DRM transmission from Montsin?ry (French Guiana) to Bras?lia is scheduled:
10.00-12.00 UTC on 15275 kHz
12.00-14.00 UTC on 17880 kHz
Wishing you successfull listenings. 73 / regards. Jacques GRUSON F6AJW
(Via drmna list via Alokesh Gupta, India, dxldyg via DXLD)``

So why is GUF transmitting to Bras?lia, one or two days only? Some conference or DRM demo? It`s a point-to-point service, so even more reason to put it in the fixed, not broadcast bands. And what was the programming content? Obviously, of no consequence (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA. A major strike by workers at All India Radio has greatly disrupted broadcasts, with many SW frequencies off the air, and abnormal programming or fill music on those remaining. Alokesh Gupta, Jose Jacob and Ashok Satpathy have filed extensive reports about this on the dx_india yg. At one point no AIR signals at all could be heard on 60m, and many MW channels were also missing, allowing DX to come in. The 48-hour strike is scheduled to end at 0330 UT Nov 25.

That explains why 9425 and 9690 were absent Nov 23, while 9870 remained, so I check them again on Nov 24 at 1349: 9870 fair but fluttery as usual with music. 9690 is also on with vocal music, and something on 9425, but can`t tell if it`s AIR. At 1411, 9690 S. Asian vocal music but suddenly cuts off at 1411:30* while 9870 continues. At 1458, 9690 is back on and now it seems // 9870 during tabla. This would be quite abnormal, demonstrating that Bengaluru transmitters are just putting on fill music from the same source rather than individual programming (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** LIBYA [and non]. 17800, V. of Africa for second day here instead of 17725, but never overcoming its already occupant, Deutsche Welle: Nov 24 at 1353, just CCI under DW, and // 21695, so evidently this does also apply to the 12-14 Swahili from Libya. At 1424 and 1448 chex, VOA English is still way under DW German on 17800. So should DW move to 17725 if Libya won`t stay on that clear frequency? Both are broadcasting to Africa so it`s bound to be a huge clash there (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 18058-, Nov 24 at 1519, JBA carrier with bits of modulation at peaks, i.e. R. Victoria, Lima, 3 x 6019.3+ (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** RUSSIA. 9440, Nov 24 at 1407, big hum/buzz over barely audible non-English talk, seems S Asian. Per listings this has to be YFR in Assamese at 14-15. HFCC says 300 kW, 110 degrees from Armavir, while Aoki says 200 kW, 147 degrees from Krasnodar, which is really another name for the same site. EiBi sides with HFCC as Armavir. But, tnx to the Russians, the poor Assamese are having to strain to hear the nonsense propagated by Harold Camping`s minions (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** RUSSIA [and non]. 6075, DW German via Sines and Woofferton, Nov 24 at 0619 for once without motorboating QRM from R. Rossii, Petropavlovsk/Kamchatskiy. I figured hi-latitude paths were sufficiently degraded to wipe it out temporarily. However, at 1335, 6075 R. Rossii is just about motorboat-free during music, then Russian announcement, but with BFO, carrier is still unstable. No doubt it`s only a temporary respite. 8GAL followed at 1400: see UNIDENTIFIED (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SARAWAK [non]. 7590, another check for R. Free Sarawak (Percuma), presumably via TAJIKISTAN, Nov 23 at 2325, but only a JBA carrier here. It is being reported sufficiently from Europe, 2230-2330 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 17765, another frequency now infested by the Walterbore, Nov 24 at 1355, weaker than adjacent WYFR 17760 but the latter not up to full strength yet. DX Mix News, Bulgaria says Nauen:
``1300-1400 on 17765 NAU 250 kW / 070 deg EaAs``.

Brother Scare continues to be heard on 15495, and also on 17485 at 1508 running about one second ahead of WWCR 9980. HFCC shows 17485 as 15-16, 100 kW, 180 degrees from Wertachtal, also GERMANY (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also USA: WINB

** TURKEY. 11815 is often a mess of NHK vs REE via COSTA RICA, but Nov 24 at 1522 I am enjoying some Asian music in the clear, M&W discussion between each piece past 1540 and at 1542 mentioned Azerbaijan a couple of times. After 1530 something else was SAHing underneath. TRT is scheduled in Turkish at 1400-1700, 250 kW, 320 degrees from ?akirlar to Europe, but also USward, per HFCC; while Aoki says it`s 1400-1655, 500 kW, 310 degrees from Emirler. Why do we have so many minor contradixions from different sources citing B10 schedules? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 18530, WINB Nov 24 at 1425, JBA at fadeups with unmistakable ranting of Brother Scare, 2 x 9265 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) see also SOUTH CAROLINA [non]

** U S A. 5755, WTWW has extended an hour later in the morning, still on with PPP at 1348 Nov 24. That gives us another blessed hour on 31m free of its overload, leaving only WWCR 9980 to cope with, but indeed WTWW had switched to 9479 after 1400.

George McClintok informs me that a new audio processor has been installed, sounds a little more bassy now. I agree, but makes little difference. The big problem remains extreme overload from the 9479 signal all day, and the fact that it is off-channel, which causes 1-kHz hets to appear with the overload against many other 31m frequencies.

George also says that PPP has OK`d some non-Scriptures for America programming, starting with Ted Randall`s QSO show, but no details yet.

Target date for WTWW #2 transmitter: Feb 1, 2011; possibly some carrier tests before then. Poles are up for the #2 transmission line; probably will string the wire early next year (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 17775, KVOH strong with distorted music, Nov 24 at 1801. Guess what?

``NASB member KVOH, La Voz de Restauraci?n, in California is selling a 50-kilowatt shortwave transmitter. It is an RCA BHF-100B which is around 40 years old. It was originally used by HCJB and went to KVOH about 15 years ago. It is currently configured to operate on two frequencies: 9975 and 17775 kHz. The location is Simi Valley,  California ? about an hour north of Los Angeles. The transmitter weighs 24,000 pounds. Those who would like more technical details may contact the station's engineer, Jim Shossner, at +1-805-581-5398 or Pastor Rene Molina at +1-323-445-5428. (Veraliz Cuellar, KVOH, vcuellar@restauracion.com).`` (Nov NASB Newsletter via DXLD)

BONUS! With this transmitter you also get spurs on 17920v and weaker 17630v, modulation is distorted on the fundamental, and it never really operates on 9975, so is it really possible there? Does this mean KVOH is getting a new transmitter to replace it, or is giving up on SW? They should pay someone to take it off their hands, on the condition that it be used only for parts, rather than vice versa (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [non]. 13655, Nov 24 at 1417 pause for some nice harp music, 1418 adding flute and morphing into ``Deutschland ?ber Alles``. This is certainly not DW, but some gospel huxter co-opting the music for the German national anthem.

Quickly revealed as such by next tune, orchestral ``Know Redeemer Liveth``, and talk in S Asian language, USA address of Family Radio. Has some echo, long/short path. Listed as YFR via Wertachtal, GERMANY, 14-16, 500 kW, 90 degrees in Sindhi and during next hour, Kannada. Need to check out Deutschland ?ber Alles in a hymnal, next time I am in a church for a cultural event. Why wait? Google reminds us it`s originally by Haydn in his Kaiser Quartet, public domain so open to corruption (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. For the second morning, VOA Spanish is on 13750 instead of 13715, so apparently not a mistake: Nov 24 at 1351 with item about huge crime rate in Rio de Janeiro. Has this change been made on the VOA website?
http://author.voanews.com/english/about/frequenciesAtoZ_s.cfm
Of course not! How about on the Spanish page linked from it?
http://www.voanews.com/spanish/news/
We defy you to find any mention of shortwave frequencies there, even a link back to the A-Z page (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [non]. 11765, Nov 24 at 1504 American-accented news in English, 1505 into gospel music, so it`s a huxter? No, VOA is scheduled during this hour only at 100 kW via Lampertheim, GERMANY. HFCC says 108 degrees, Aoki says 96 degrees. This was audible only because 11760 RHC was off and on, as they were reconfiguring for daytime broadcasts (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6074, Nov 24 observations of 8GAL: CW marker starts at 1400, same time as the 6-second-late timesignal from R. Rossii, which is not motorboating much today [see RUSSIA]. Copied standard marker: ``VVV CQ CQ CQ DE 8GAL 8GAL K``. Yes, like yesterday sent 8GAL twice, not thrice (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
