** CHINA. Firedrake, April 21 at 1325: on 8400 and weaker 9000. Firedrake, which is the name for the raucous music-only jamming, not any other audio source of Chinese jamming, is still being heard regularly here in the mornings: April 22 at 1307 on 8400, much stronger than on 9000 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. The latest from Mixing Product Central on 13 MHz: April 21 at 1414, Fidel on 13720 mixing with CRI English, i.e. leapfrog 13760 over 13740. Meanwhile from the other site, the usual leapfrogs of 13680 and 13780 over each other to land on 13580 and 13880 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. 15190 at 1416 April 21 with screaming preacher in English, fortunately undermodulated but still plenty annoying, and who would voluntarily listen to that for content? Doesn`t matter, pays your money, maybe gets your transmission to the heathen masses of Africa (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. VOI, 9525, for the third Tuesday in a row featuring Banjarmasin, in another historical W&M lexure, April 21 at 1341. Earlier in the hour, reports about the elexion (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TAIWAN. Checked RTI 9735 again April 21, at 1322 in Japanese, and this time without the spurs on 9730 and 9740 that were there the day before. But they`ll be back, no doubt.
RTI 9735 spurs were back on April 22 at 1305, bothering CRI on 9730 and BBC on 9740 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. 11930, Tue April 21 at 1328 talk in S Asian language I could not quite place, mixed with music past 1330. No jamming yet from Cuba; R. Martí starts at 1400 with carrier on several minutes earlier. Is PWBR `2009` any help? Of course not! In fact I seldom bother to check it any more since A-09 began; once in a while it would come up with an answer in B-08, but even so one always had to compare it to up-to-date online resources for confirmation.
Aoki shows this is TWR via Novosibirsk, RUSSIA, due south in a variety S Asian languages, many of them obscure, such as this one, Dogri, M-F at 1315-1330, while on Sat & Sun it`s Hindi at 1315-1400. No broadcasts are accounted for after 1330 on Tuesdays, nor in EiBi.
Here`s a bit about the Dogri language, not that they are itching to become Protestants, but there is allegedly a translation of the New Testament: http://languages.iloveindia.com/dogri.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** WESTERN SAHARA [non]. La Voz de la RASD, 6300 via Algeria, not heard here in some time; seems it does not sign on until a few minutes after 0600; April 22 at 0627 it was coming in well with music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9233 approx., SSB net in American English. Only one station was occasionally readable, mentioning knots, and ``loading fish``, 0555-0600+ April 22. 9+ MHz propagation was better than usual (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15396.7-USB, approximately, 2-way Spanish intruder April 21 at 1336-1339+. Pretty lively continuous conversation this time, but couldn`t really copy details, presumably poachers or narcotraffickers (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
