** BRAZIL. 5990.04 approx., June 17 at 0118, surprise new poor signal, 25332, with music, // much stronger 6180, so EBC Brasília has reactivated extra transmitter here instead of 5999.6, avoiding RHC. Is slightly on hi side, in AM mode, altho original purpose was supposedly to test DRM domestically with 4 kW, a power I can now believe. Recheck 0556, JBA but content seems // 11780, 6180 RNA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. CNR1 jamming, morning of June 17:
18990, June 17 at 1257, CNR1 jammer, poor, maybe CCI from RFA Kuwait
16920, June 17 at 1257, CNR1 jammer, fair
18980, June 17 at 1352, CNR1 jammer, good with flutter, lite SAH CCI
16300, June 17 at 1353, CNR1 jammer, good with flutter
15870, June 17 at 1354, CNR1 jammer, good with flutter
15550, June 17 at 1355, CNR1 jammer, very poor

** CHINA [non]. 1520, June 17 at 1132 UT, CRI relay in English is about equal level to CBS News Update from KOKC OKC, making slow SAH of 48/minute = 0.8 Hz, i.e. KYND Cypress TX serving Houston (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 15400, June 17 at 1301, RHC canned announcement that 9850 ``will stop`` at 1300; strange they insert this about one frequency only, and never mention that they have started on 15400 & 15310, leapfrog mixing products (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 650, June 17 at 1123, Mexican music alone on very poor signal, fadeout by 1129, presumed the usual XETNT Los Mochis, Sinaloa. I miss most sunrise skip in the summer, not being awake early enough; today`s SR in Enid was at it earliest, 1113 UT. No other Mexicans making it on low band, except:
880, June 17 at 1124, romantic music, with KRVN nulled, maybe XEPNK also Los Mochis, not usually heard.
1570, June 17 at 1131, XERF, ``La Poderosa`` is still propagating well from Ciudad Acuña, Coahuila, atop the QRM, but plugging its availability on FM, internet (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. (960), June 17 at 0500 I am listening to the XEK Nuevo Laredo webcast instead of in a KGWA Fox-hole. Corto version of NA plays, IDs mentioning inauguration on May 17, 1937, so station is now serving the fourth generation of listeners, back to traditional Mexican music, no XEW chimes this time, and no ``Let It Be``, which remains a mystery from some other 960 outlet (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA. 15120-AM, June 17 at 0550, VON M&W mumbling, and rumbling from LF pitch, but unseems a het from another station, rather self-imposed; unreadable tho fair signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 5980, June 17 until 0114:25*, R. Chaski carrier cutoff 6 seconds later than yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SRI LANKA. 11905, June 17 at 0114:46 music starts from SLBC, and 2+1 mistimesignal still ends at 0115:18; very poor with flutter (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. 15440, June 17 at 1300, very poor, ``Voice of America, Washington DC, signing off`` and Yankee-Doodle-Dandy IS. Thus concludes the Vatican Radio relay in Russian via Tinang, PHILIPPINES, as VOA obviously has no shame, no qualms about violating Separation of Church and State (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1725 monitoring: confirmed the 1100 Tuesday broadcasts in WRMI 9955 at 1120 check June 17: VG signal, no jamming audible, but with CCI from France via TAIWAN in Chinese still unnecessarily a few Hz away, surging during WRMI fades. Next:
Wednesday 0630 on Hamburger Lokalradio, 7265-CUSB
Wednesday 1315 on WRMI, 9955
Wednesday 1430 on Hamburger Lokalradio, 7265-CUSB
