Glenn Hauser logs November 23, 2014 [more]

** BRAZIL. 11745 & 11815, Nov 23 at 0632, distorted spurs from 11780.1 RNA are still audible (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. CNR1 jamming, morning of Nov 23:

11430, Nov 23 at 1522, CNR1 jammer, fair-good (while an hour earlier there were very weak signals in Chinese here and on 11470, suspected Sound of Hope: see TAIWAN)

12500, Nov 23 at 1524, CNR1 jamming, fair

12910, Nov 23 at 1524, CNR1 jamming, good; none in the 13s, 14s, 15s, 16s, 17s (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT [non]. 9395, Sunday Nov 23 at 1351, R. Cairo now during the only relay per week via Global 24 via WRMI: ME music, modulation sounds OK, but obstacle is the weak signal of G24, hit by ACI from both sides as usual, especially 9400 with FEBC. 1400 breaks for G24/WRMI ID, and back to Cairo, now YL announcement, but unreadable. By 1403, FEBC is off leaving mainly still stronger KURDISTAN [non] ACI from 9400. Now I can make out some of what she is saying, apparently financial news. Voice modulation also seems to be OK, which is more than Cairo can achieve via its own transmitters. 1407 switching to another program, but the whole thing is just too poor to keep trying to follow (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NEW ZEALAND. 5950, Nov 23 at 1345, RNZI ID as I tune in, then music, so back on the air after unfound here or on any frequency 24 hours earlier; conveniently right next to 5940 R. Australia (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TAIWAN. 11605, Nov 23 at 1417, strong open carrier with slight hum, still so at 1445; 1459 recheck now fanfare and Chinese announcement including ``Chungyang`` which points to ROC rather than PRC. Is pronouncing email address sounding like
vocusa@comcast.net ! Still going at 1522. Aoki shows it`s RTI in Cantonese at 1500-1530 to be followed by Hakka, both 250 kW, 205 degrees from Tainan site and that only the Cantonese portion is *jammed, but there is no CCI audible here except for a weak LAH (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TAIWAN. 11430 & 11470, Nov 23 at 1420, very weak signals in Chinese, sound the same and maybe // but not confirmed. Suspect these are really Sound of Hope = Xi Wang Zhi Sheng as in Aoki, but likely a bit more than the nominal 100 watts. If these were CNR1 jamming, I would expect much stronger signals, as is the case an hour later: see CHINA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 11580, Nov 23 at 1415, WRMI is off, no BS, but a JBA carrier from something, exciter? 1444 recheck, now it`s back on at usual level much weaker than 11825 due to azimuths (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also EGYPT [non]

** U S A. 15270, Sunday Nov 23 at 1527, surprised to find VG signal with Kathy (Cathy? Kathi?) somebody ending her program with piano accompaniment (another Martha Garvin?), too much music and too little enunciation to copy her e-mail address, but postal address is in Plano TX; 1528 to WHR ID including Limassol, Cyprus address.

Haven`t noticed this before and not in Aoki --- but in EiBi and registered in HFCC as 1500-1600 Sat & Sun only, 100 kW at 315 degrees. Yet
http://www.whr.org/Frequencies.cfm
shows 15270 from Angel 6 at 15-22 UT.

The A6 program schedule shows this was ``Kathy Mai - Water of Life Ministries``, and a bunch of other programs on 15270 daily until 2200, and Saturdays even until 2400 instead of switching to 7385, but they are mostly in-house filler, and indeed 15270 not really on the air today during following hour checked at 1622. Typical WHR behavior. If someone really wanted to buy any airtime during this span, they are cleared and all set to turn on the transmitter again.

As for Kathy Mai Hurley, Googling finds this interesting forum about Water of Life Ministries, that she has married someone with legal problems, not Davidson:

And here she is with an audio/video:http://www.godtube.com/watch/?v=FJJFM1NU
Invisible full orchestral accompaniment --- karaoke? Anyhow, her dress is colorful (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
