** AUSTRALIA. 15180, RA in Indonesian, June 24 at 0604 with Berita, ID; poor, weaker than RA English on 15160. 15180 is Darwin at 290 degrees, 0600-0630, in Indonesian M-F, English Sat/Sun per Aoki.
Last time we heard RA in the morning with sport special, the four 31m frequencies were split 50-50, but June 24 at 1204 RA news in English was on 9475 only, 1205 into LNL; while 9560, 9580 and 9590 were // with post-game discussion involving Queensland, also on 6020 and until 1200 also on 5995. By 1222 next check, sports had been replaced by the other talkshow from the so-called ABC Local Radio network, Nightlife ID in passing at 1231; guest was author of ``How America Rules the World``, Dr Keith Sutter. After 1300, 9475 into Chinese, and the others back to RA mainstream with news, 1305 Asia-Pacific (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1466, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake June 24: at 1152, poor on both 8400 and 9000; 1214 on new 13500 // 9000, nothing on 13970 which has not been heard last few days; at 1217 a trace of it on 14420 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1466, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** FRANCE. 11610, RFI musique at 0609 June 24, fair, weaker than Bulgaria in French on 11600. 11610 is supposed to be English 0600-0630 via Issoudun, 500 kW, 170 degrees, but with strike fill music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. 4750, RRI Makassar, presumed, June 24 at 1147 YL in Indonesian(?) talk, about to fade out more than a semihour after local sunrise, CODAR, summer noise (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** JAPAN. R. Nikkei, JOZ, 3925, SSB ham QRM, with piano music // 6055, June 24 at 1148. At this late hour could not hear any other broadcasters on 120, 105, 90 or 75 m (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. XERTA, 4800, June 24 at 1146 with music, YL ID ``desde México . . . Radio Transcontinental``; CODAR and summer noise overtaking.
XEQM, Mérida, presumed, on 6105 with het as befits a station always reported 100-300 Hz on the lo side, but I did not try to measure it, June 24 at 0618, upbeat music with live DJ, sometimes talking over, timechex. Did not get ID other than slogan ``la más grande``. Some fading, and mostly music until 0635. The het probably came from BBC Ascension in French, 27 degrees at 0600-0630 only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1466, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PHILIPPINES. Hmong hmusic on 11935, June 24 at 1207, way underneath CRI in Russian; just like we hear on WHRI 11785. Sure `nuff, Hmong is scheduled on R. Veritas Asia 11935 at 1200-1227, 250 kW, 280 degrees from Palauig-Zambales, per Aoki (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TAIWAN. 11570, June 24 at 1213 in Burmese, spelling out Family Radio address; per Aoki it`s 1200-1300, 100 kW, 265 degrees from Hu Wei site (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. You hear Allen Graham and Jeff White on WRMI 9955, Wednesday June 24 at 1155, so it`s DX Partyline, right? Wrong; it`s Wavescan, as scheduled from 1130, Allen (with an E as in Ecuador) guesting in Miami studio; a bit of Aegean folk music Jeff no doubt picked up on a recent cruise, and wrapup. Grind jamming bothering and steadily building up, but WRMI still audible at 1200 ID and into Radio Cuba Libre, opening with martial fanfare and Cuban national anthem(?) we used to hear also on RHC. By a few minutes later, buried under DentroCuban Jamming Command (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
