Glenn Hauser logs June 30-July 1, 2014

** ALASKA. 9910, July 1 at 1301, KNLS IS, 1302 opening Chinese with website smzg.org pronounced in English (I assume those letters have some significance in romanized Mandarin, meaning maybe New Life Station??). Fair signal, and am pleased to find my local high noise level is off at least for now (later, on and off intermittently, and not so pervasive thruout HF). KNLS reception is unusual enough here off the back of Anchor Point to be noteworthy (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 18980, July 1 at 1334, CNR1 jammer, with SAH presumably from RFA Tibetan via KUWAIT as this is its Tue & Fri frequency during this hour. No others 12-19 MHz now with degraded propagation, except:

15195, July 1 at 1337, Firedrake jammer atop victim with SAH; 1348 a little more CCI; vs IBB Tibetan via TAJKISTAN at 12-14; and the usual big CNR1 clash on 15115

9845, July 1 at 1403, CNR1 jammer, fair vs IBB Chinese via THAILAND a 14-15 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6165, July 1 at 0554, RHC missing from this frequency, while overkill English is nominal on 6100, 6060, 6000, 5040. Unfortunately, nothing else to be heard on 6165, like silent Chad.

15370, July 1 at 1400, RHC missing from here, altho it was on in the previous hour, while 15340 continues (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KUWAIT [and non]. 21540, July 1 at 1311, R. Kuwait, poor with orchestral music, 1333 Arabic talk. Rarely listenable level any more if at all; SSOB with much weaker one from nearby 21505 Saudi, while Spain is not audible at all on 13m, if still broadcasting (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. Photo linx in previous report were 1 number off; corrected:
0205 June 30 on 3, photos of XHBC Mexicali (sorry, my monitor is ``folding over`` at top of screen, but can still see ``3`` bugs in UR)

** PERU. 5980, July 1 until 0115:46*, R. Chaski carrier with some modulation, cut off six seconds later than yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN [and non]. As I mentioned before, HFCC showed some new MADAGASCAR registrations by PNW (Press Now, same organization airing R. Tamazuj and R. Dabanga) dated to start 010714, so I am monitoring for them, but they are no-shows. Maybe they are really ``startin`` later than that on a date cut off from the HFCC remarx. Not heard:
 7205, July 1 at 0400
15150, July 1 at 0500
11805, July 1 at 1500 (but unlikely to be audible here even if on)
Thorsten Hallmann in Germany and Noel Green in England agree on nothing being heard yet on 11805.

Existing transmissions have been reconfirmed, presumably starting with R. Tamazuj:
15550, July 1 at 0400, fair via Madagascar
11650, July 1 at 0400, fair via Vatican with whine jamming
15550, July 1 at 1500, fair via Vatican
15150, July 1 at 1500, JBA signal presumably via Madagascar
Thorsten & Noel also agree on the 1500 frequencies

** U S A. 9885, July 1 at 0127-0128* strong OC, probably Greenville-B tuning up for a later transmission to Africa, French at 0600, which still exist (despite IBB Tibetan via Tajikistan listed already on 9885 at 01-03), but:

9825, July 1 at 0126, no signal nor later from the last remaining VOA English broadcast to the Americas, at 0130-0200 Tue-Sat, which had been for Learning purposes, now deleted (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 12105, July 1 at 0130, WTWW-3 is off, while -2 on 5085 and -1 on 9475 are on. -3 normally runs 17-02 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
