Glenn Hauser logs May 30-31, 2015

** GUATEMALA. 4055, May 31 at 0611, I find that the reactivated R. Verdad is still on, concluding multilingual IDs over organ music with QSLing info, postal address: Spanish, 0612 English, German, Italian, Swedish, Japanese, local language with heavy Spanish influence; I suspect some of these were provided by DX listeners. 0618 brief Spanish and English sign-offs, NA which we know will be multi-verse for several minutes more.

Program schedule is conveniently already in UT:
http://www.radioverdad.org/programaci%C3%B3n
or try the original as:
http://www.radioverdad.org/programación
Where the only show in such a language on it is
22:30 - 23:00 E Imb’utz Ajk’in (Sábado)
but the name of the language is not given; no doubt obvious locally.

I suspect sked is not up to date as it still claims to start at 1100 UT weekdays, while we know it`s been on much earlier for a long time. Also it does not mention the DX program from Panamá, `Antena DX`, which its producer believes is on 4055 UT Sundays at 0200; I should try to confirm that by monitoring; instead shows local Mon-Sat in UT:
``02:00 - 02:30 Club de la Amistad y Filatélico``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1775 monitoring: confirmed on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, Wentzville MO, in progress at 0349 UT Sunday May 31, during Pakistan item, which means it would have started circa 0325 this week. Next:

** U S A. 15770, Saturday May 30 at 2152, WRMI playing a bit of Beethoven`s Sixth Symphony, as fill? No announcements until 2159 Zanotti ID and off 2200*. Current sked shows Sat 2130 `Made in Italy`, and 2145 `FG Radio`, whatever that is. The WRMI programming page
http://www.wrmi.net/pb/wp_d12a1732/wp_d12a1732.html
is never complete, and this is one example.

15190, Sat May 30 at 2205-2210+, R. Africa Network via WRMI is playing repetitive looping music, as if plugged into a keyboard running something it is programmed to autoprovide other than for an international SW broadcast toward, rather than from, Equatorial Guinea (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1500, May 31 at 0605 UT, I`m getting something in English besides KSTP, with that nulled as much as possible. Local weather break attributed to The Weather Channel, but can`t copy any details! Then music, which turns out to be prélude to Coast to Coast AM (they play a different piece of music at the start of every hour and after the half-hour), since 0607 UT definite mention of Coast to Coast AM.

The 2014-2015 NRC AM Log mentions no `B` network affiliate on 1500. So I try to find a 1500 affil at the Coast to Coast website, where listings are sorted state by state only. It must not be up to date.

Would you believe that yahoo search on 1500 site:coasttocoastam.com/stations leads to three possible states: MN [!], NM, and NY. But if you look at the roster for those three states there are NO 1500`s nor any explanation of why that figure would possibly come up for those pages. Google search in same way gets zero hits on 1500, but gets reasonable hits for 1490 and 1510.

Suspect this 1500 is a cheating daytimer, maybe normally carrying C2CAM on an FM translator only? There are lots of them from TX to OH and the SE quadrant of the USA, including one in Pawhuska OK which is normally sportstalk. The NRC Pattern Book shows one with a favorable lobe this way, rather than ND, Indianapolis` WBRI, which does have an FM translator, but it`s supposedly religious, and the affil there is WIBC-FM.

Could it possibly be WFED Washington DC (ex-WTOP)? We never hear it here with its very unfavorable pattern out into the Atlantic. Website http://federalnewsradio.com has nothing about C2C, but linx to weekday and weekend program schedules are not hot. C2C site state list does not even include DC.

Broadening the search thru the NRC listings, there are surprisingly few news/talk formats on 1500, with a lot of Oldies, etc. TLK was KDFN Doniphan MO, 1 kW daytimer, which had been silent since 4/2014 as of publication in 8/2014. Another is WKXO Berea KY, 250-watt daytimer which was OLD/TLK. Own site shows WKXO is now an SRN gospel station. KDFN is apparently still off as it`s not on the Fox Media Network/Fox Radio Network station list for SE Missouri.

Google search on program name and 1500 leads to this:
http://archive.coasttocoastam.com/affiliates/aa.html
mentioning two 1500s, KSTP (before it went ESPN), and KRMS Osage Beach MO, so not meant to be current? Anyhow, all affils are on one page for easy searching. Trouble is, KRMS is now on 1150; was it ever on 1500?

KJIM 1500 Sherman TX is not far, and often heard before sunset, as a nostalgic daytimer; can`t see how they could pick up a talk show AND manage to be on overnight.

Perhaps my closest 1500 is the answer, seemingly a long shot, but maybe not: KPGM Pawhuska OK, 500-watt daytimer, with ESPN and Sports Animal sub-network in OK --- BUT it`s sibling station in http://www.bartlesvilleradio.com to KWON 1400 Bartlesville which IS a C2C affiliate. BTW, KPGM 1500 using radio-locator.com claims daytime to reach Enid at fringe which is true, and KWON 1400 even a bit further --- except totally blocked by 1390v KCRC here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15649-USB, May 31 at 1311, 2-way Spanish intruder is here today, with nothing AM on 15650 to het it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

So far in 2015, visitors to the website come from such places as Australia, India, Indonesia, Brazil, China, Iran and over 100 other countries across the Pacific, Asia, Europe, Middle East, North, South and Central America....all finding something of interest. The top 25 cities they live in include New York, Los Angeles, New Delhi, Mumbai, Dhaka and Suva.............

Have you visited us yet? Just come to www.radioheritage.net and enjoy this free community project of the non-profit Radio Heritage Foundation. The real project work is behind the scenes, and we're only scratching the surface.............but we're sure you'll find our website fascinating, entertaining, educational and, of course, fun!

Glenn Hauser logs May 29-30, 2015


** BRAZIL. 11745-11840, May 30 at 0550, approx. splatter range of overmodulated RNB 11780.2v transmitter which needs to be put out of its misery (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA [and non]. 21690, May 30 at 0540, two Chinese language stations mixing with SAH and fading, so now I know I have both RFA Chinese via TINIAN during this hour, and a CNR1 jammer. No more jammers found at this hour in 12-18 MHz OOB sweep.

18990, May 30 at 1155, JBA carrier, which fits for the Saturday-only 11-12 UT perch of RFA Tibetan via Kuwait, and/or CNR1 jammer. Only other one found before 1200 is:

16100, May 30 at 1156, CNR1 jammer, very poor with flutter
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 13895, May 30 at 0544, distorted weak spur in Arabic music and talk. Prime suspect source is awful 13850 R. Cairo transmitter, which is also audible, slightly stronger with slightly less distortion, and humbuzz with same programming. But no matching spur on 13805, 45 kHz on the other side (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** FRANCE. 11995, May 30 at 0550, no signal from RFI, unlike May 29 at 0500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH [and non]. 9880, May 30 at 1204, Korean language with regular pulsing jamming noise at the rate of 104 times per minute. Victim is KSDA Guam, 11-12 daily in Korean (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MICRONESIA [non]. When I awaken before 1200 I hasten to the FRG-7 to detect what carriers remain on 60m now, a semihour+ after local sunrise. 4755+, May 30 at 1153, still no signal from PMA The Cross, but JBA carriers on 4750, 4760, 4820, 4870, 5020, and of course much better ones on 4835, 4840 (WWCR still on), 4940 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NIGERIA. 9690-, May 30 at 0622 check, V. of Nigeria is on again in Hausa, but 9690 dumps off the air briefly just as I tune in, back on, while // 7255- stays on with whine; 0624 into music with drumming.

BTW, language buff Tim Hendel in Huntsville AL, has more about Hausa: ``Glenn, In addition to the Hausa terms you mentioned on WOR, I add this: "Sasha Hausa, BBC," I assume means hausa "program" or "service." I remember hearing this. Also, "labarang dunia" I think means "world news." This word, "dunia, dunya" seems to be one of those very wide-spread words, probably from Arabic, meaning "world." When I lived in Hawaii, 1972-75, I took some Indonesian courses. "World news" was always said on short wave as: "warta berita dunia."`` (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN [and non]. 13800, May 30 at 0542, R. Dabanga, fair via VATICAN, with offset carriers jamming on the hi side. Sometimes this jamming is on and audible, sometimes not. On a previous occasion, Wolfgang Büschel measured the jammer frequencies precisely on an SDR: 

``Noted in 0530 to 0556 UT May 26 range: Stronger whistle on 1220 Hertz apart, and a lower audio pitch at 2620 Hertz apart distance on upper sideband. (13801.220 and 13802.620 kHz) wb``

As for // 11645 via VATICAN, it`s as usual weaker but remains separate from carrier+tone jammer still stuck far enough away on 11650. If I had listened to 11645 a few minutes more past 0545, I might have noted this as did Ivo Ivanov:

``GREECE ERTOpen, AVLis was back on 11645 on May 30 // 9420:
0545-1300  9420 170 kW / 323 deg WeEu Greek, no signal of RL Russian*

0545-1300 15630 100 kW / 285 deg WeEu Greek is off``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

La Rosa de Tokio para este fin de semana: recorrido radiofónico por los pueblos ubicados a la vera de la Ruta Provincial 11


La Rosa de Tokio es un programa dedicado a difundir el apasionante mundo de la radio y del diexismo que se transmite semanalmente desde los estudios de LS11 Radio Provincia de Buenos Aires.

Este fin de semana dedicaremos nuestro programa a hacer un recorrido radiofónico por los pueblos ubicados a la vera de la Ruta Provincial 11, en el sudeste de la provincia de Buenos Aires. 

No se pierdan los archivos de audio historicos con los cuales se "ilustra" cada programa.

La Rosa de Tokio puede ser escuchada los días domingos de 17:00 a 18:00 Tiempo Universal Coordinado (14:00 a 15:00 hora LU) por los 1270 Khz y en Internet por http://www.amprovincia.com.ar

Glenn Hauser logs May 28-29, 2015


** BANGLADESH. 15505, May 29 at 1358, JBA carrier of BB, 1359 JBA IS, and I can only make out two pips about 2.5 seconds after 1400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BRAZIL. 11710 & 11745 & 11815, May 29 at 0510, crackling spurs from 11780v RNA/RNB but now the overmodulated/distorted fundamental is also splattering out, making for continuous noise roughly 11750-11810, bleeding into the spurs making them less distinct. Blocking some other broadcaster on 11750, which would be VOA Hausa via Germany (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA [and non]. 21690, May 29 at 0516, poor-fair signal from one station in Chinese: either RFA TINIAN or CNR1 jammer. At least something is propagating in the nightmiddle on 13m (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** FRANCE. 11995, May 29 at 0500, French news about FIFA, good with flutter; surprised to hear this, tho a well-known RFI frequency, not currently scheduled, only 0600-0630 Hausa per HFCC, and 18-22 French per Aoki and HFCC. Confirmed as RFI by // weaker 11700 and stronger 13695 in the next few minutes (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** MEXICO. After a sporadic E opening earlier in the day, fades in again later May 28, all times UT:

2245 on 2, fade-in Es with illegible bug in upper right corner, but seems to fit for a clock and +v = XEWO Guadalajara. Also algo on 4

2253 on 2, large FERRUSQUILLA across screen, and narration mentions Guadalajara. Wikipedia defines:

``José Ángel Espinoza - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/José_Ángel_EspinozaCached
José Ángel Espinoza Aragón (born August 2, 1922 in Mazatlán, Sinaloa), also known as Ferrusquilla, is a Mexican film actor and songwriter.``

2256 on 2, short guy in a body suit with large CH on his chest, i.e. Chespirito, a.k.a. Chapulín Colorado --- can`t be sure if it`s this recently deceased beloved character or someone wearing a copysuit: 

2310 on 2, `Simpsons` dubbed

2322 on 2, fade-in Spanish ads, CCI

UT Friday May 29:

0018 on 2, heavier CCI, also algo on 4

0025 on 2, still `Simpsons`

[unproductive opening continues, but I`ve got to mow before it rains again]

0159 on 2, still CCI including some silly sports game involving a pelota, mentions Querétaro (as one of the teams?)

0313 on 2, still weak CCI, and at 0335, and at 0408 and trace when I quit at 0422. I had kept an eye on the 6m Es map but MUF (over USA) rarely reached FM and nothing heard on 88.1 pilot (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN [and non]. 11645, May 29 at 0508, R. Dabanga in Arabish, fair signal via VATICAN but with splash from 11635 WHRI in French; while the Sudanese jammer remains on 11650-AM with 1 kHz DSB tone.

13800, May 29 at 0514, R. Dabanga in Arabish, good via MADAGASCAR and no tone/carrier jamming audible (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U K [non]. 21630, May 29 at 1404, tune-in to English, clip of oath of office, apparently swearing-in of new Nigerian leader, back to Hausa from BBC via ASCENSION. No local QRM from KTST via second harmonic of an FM receiver today (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1775 monitoring: confirmed Thursday May 28 after 2100 on WRMI 7570. Next:
2130 UT Friday WRMI 15770

For all our broadcasts on all media see

Access to podcasts, latest and previous shows:
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9330-CUSB, May 29 at 0454, surprised to find VG signal here, no doubt WBCQ reactivated; also some modulation audible on LSB, at least on the DX-398. UnID preacher with Bible study, runs past 0500 now about a serpent, cuts off circa 0503 when I am not paying attention, but I think it was abrupt without ID. Apparently a test of this frequency/transmitter which has been silent for several months. The current WBCQ program schedule shows zero entries for 9330. Ivo Ivanov just today issued an updated WBCQ schedule showing 15420 and 9330 not in use (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VATICAN. 11625, May 29 at 0506, English news of conflict and food shortages in Mali, interview someone from World Food Program; 0507 ID as African Service of Vatican Radio, and back to `African News Panorama`; good signal from SMG site direct despite alleged 184 degree azimuth (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15642.5-USB, May 29 at 1300, intruding 2-way at first unseems Spanish, then it is, mentions ``49 norte`` --- if referring to a latitude position, that`s far from Latin American drug flight routes, so maybe fishing poachers instead. One with engine noise; colloquial informal conversation, maybe just to keep each other company; whistling, poor signals (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

This report dispatched at 1644 UT May 29

Glenn Hauser logs May 27-28, 2015


** BRAZIL. 11745 & 11815, May 27 at 0608, crackling spurs are still here. I have relented and not logged/reported them every night heard, which is: every night. At this time the RNA/RNB fundamental 11780.2v is overmodulated/distorted which only worsens the spur output. Turn down the damn modulation level!!

11710 & 11745 & 11815, May 28 at 0639, cracking spurs not only of the first order but also the second order are emanating from the even more overmodulated/distorted 11780v (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA [and non]. 18990, May 27 at 1344, JBA carrier either from CNR1 jammer or scheduled target, RFA Tibetan, always 78 degrees via Kuwait during this hour on Wed & Sat. BTW, HFCC shows different antennas: on Wed it`s a type 146 with no slew; on Sat it`s a 216 with an 8 degree slew; why? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 17615, May 27 at 0615, very poor, music maybe ME with flutter, then announcement. Per HFCC this could be either CRI in German via Urumqi, EAST TURKISTAN, or CRI in Chinese via Kunming southwards, so likely the former (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 13850, May 27 at 0609, R. Cairo, good signal in Arabic but suptorted, unlistenable (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GERMANY [non]. 17720, May 27 at 1324, surprised to hear DW IS seeking brothers, fair signal, but off at 1326 check. I would not have been surprised had I remembered this from Ivo Ivanov:

``GERMANY(non) Test transmissions of Deutsche Welle from May 26 to 28:
0750-0758 15215 DHA 250 kW / 045 deg WeAs English
1315-1328 17720 TRM 250 kW / 355 deg WeAs DWL, IS
1320-1328 15215 DHA 250 kW / 045 deg WeAs Hausa, co-ch KSDA Bengali``
So this was via SRI LANKA; what will ensue? (Glenn Hauser, OK, LISTENING DIGEST)

** GUATEMALA. 4055, May 28 at 0535, carrier detectable from R. Verdad, but nothing more in heavy storm noise level. Dr Madrid had just notified me at 0412: ``Radio Truth is on the air already, with 800 watts and much stability. Praise God and Engineer Ralph Borthwick, from Canada. Dr. Édgar Amílcar Madrid, Radio Verdad y Radio Verdad TV``. Let`s hope he also improved the modulation while he was at it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 1300, May 27 at 0642 UT, romantic music in Spanish, loops WSW, fast SAH against others. Presumed XEP Juárez, Chihua2, but since it`s dominating the frequency, I can`t believe it`s on 200 watt night power instead of 38 kW day. 

BTW, Fred Cantú`s http://www.mexicoradiotv.com site is still ``temporarily unavailable``. I fear it is permanently (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO [and non]. Channel 2, at turn-on May 28, 1456 UT, weak signal looks like Es and it`s fading some --- NO, it`s cable radiation (I have too many amps, splitters, cables and devices!) of KAUT RF 40, ``43`` as still on Suddenlink analog cable 2 viewed // on another set. However:

1510 UT May 28 on 2, now there really is Es from Mexico, making almost zero-beat with cable rad, and overcoming it, or producing low-audible heterodyne of the video bleeding into the audio (may we assume that all analog cable channels are precisely zero-offset? No need to be otherwise). 

Clearly visible is digital clock in lower right reading CDT a minute slow: at 1510 UT, 10:09; at 1512 UT, 10:11! It`s a studio chat between standing W & M, I suspect something about fashion the way she is displaying. On the backdrop is the word CALLE, presumably show or segment title. Finally at 1513 UT I tentatively make out the Gala swirl bug partly off-screen in the extreme lower right beyond the clock; and then fades out. 

Oh oh, it seems that w9wi.com has deleted all Mexican listings on channel 2, probably all channels! He does have linx to Cofetel, but those don`t work; nor to Cantú, which is still inaccessible and maybe closed permanently. That leaves us with maps such as this:
incomplete geographically and likely outdating too, but some Televisa 9`s on 2 include XHHMA in Sonora and XHAGU in Aguascalientes --- but Gala programming is typically also relayed by Televisa-local channels. 

A bit of googling suggests that XHY-TV in Yucatán, a.k.a. Gala TV Mérida, debuted in January 2014, a 9 am-1 pm show called ``Calle 60``. XHY is a not uncommon catch here, and not far off my antenna heading. At peak I was also getting something on channel 4, but not 3, which also fits for Mérida.

6m Es map is now showing only TX to FL east-west contacts, including a couple from NE Mexico to FL, but I am getting north-south (roughly: antenna stuck about 170 degrees so can`t jockey it for a better reading of source). (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NEW ZEALAND [and non]. 11725, May 28 at 0537, open carrier from RNZI, but on adjacent 11730 NHK in French I am hearing sweeping tones of varying pitches, presumably 5+ kHz hi audio frequencies coming out of the adjacent Enzedder undergoing another of its Thursday maintenance breaks. However, I am not hearing them circa 11720 where there is nothing to beat against. A few minutes later RNZI is back to programming (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** NIGERIA. 15120-, May 27 at 0613, VON English with good AM signal slightly on the lo side, chants undermodulated but not distorted.

9690- & 7255-, May 27 at 0605 check, NO signals from VON Hausa, another off-day; while African propagation is funxional: 9575 Morocco and 7285 South Africa.

9690 & 7255, May 28 at 0615, now carriers detectable in heavy storm noise level here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 89.1, May 27 at 0113 UT, good stereo signal from local translator K206CA on Oasis Network which blox public radio KMUW from Wichita or KYCU Clinton, or anything else, with gospel music as I tune in, then modulation cuts off, and on and off; back on at 0122 next check playing praise music in Spanish --- didn`t know they did that, but Oasis is after all a Spanish word as well as English, a language resumed with the next tune. Anyhow, another instance of K206CA losing modulation. When on, the audio is fine with no CCI so unseems muting due to QRM on input from KNYD or KMSI. Maybe instead caused by power glitches. There are storms in the state (as always!), but not in this immediate area (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** OKLAHOMA. 1640, May 28 at 1316 UT, open carrier, dead air except for hum, from KZLS Enid/Hennessey/OKC. Ho, hum, not at all unusual for them; what a sorry excuse for a radio station (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 21630-FM, May 28 at 1310 UT, I am hearing some FM station ``relayed`` centered here, spreading approx. 21550-21700 in extreme distortion as received on the AM-mode FRG-7. Some unknown neighbor again has tuned their FM radio to favorite 101.9 KTST OKC, which is the first thing I check for a // and it matches. The radio`s ~10.7 MHz IF is radiating this on its second harmonic, with considerable deviation from nominal 21.4 MHz. KTST is mostly jock talk now, despite RDS display as I tune it in directly: TWISTER / TODAY`S / NEW / COUNTRY. If this is still on after 1400, it will seriously QRM BBC Ascension on 21630; nothing else audible fundamentally on 13m yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 104.5, May 28 at 1347 UT, classical music easily heard in stereo from new KZZW Mooreland, with area tropo enhancement; it`s ``Carnival of Venice`` on flute with orchestra. RDS display is constant and static with only: KZZW, at left margin, not even centred. Seems the music is never identified, as segué 1355 to ``Blessèd Assurance`` on harp, but 1356 already non-ID as ``In Balance Music`` (as explained in my previous report). More music over hourtop until 1402 KZZW Mooreland ID and into `USA Headline News`. One minute of it before commercials, then another 30 seconds of news, more ads, and after that, as always into ``news`` of hot-button topix for far-right religious fanatix, the scarcely hidden political agenda of USA Net. 1406.5 back to classical music --- no, it`s one of countless versions of ``Aleluya``. This is all too insidious. BTW, whenever I hear Christians parlant about blessing, I can`t help but think of what blesser means in
 French (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 15450, May 28 at 1306, VOT in English is poor-fair, partly readable, better than usual, 1307 theme and into Question of the Month, which is about wrestling. There`s no way I could have understood or copied the three Turkish names as multiple-choice. But anyone has a 33.33% chance of winning by guessing. Would they accept ``the second one`` as an entry, rather than citing the name? After that you presumably have to be lucky in a draw for a souvenir.

TRT website is no longer helpful! Alan Roe of WORLD OF RADIO HITLIST,
reports to the DXLD yahoogroup:

``V of Turkey. I've noticed recently that all links to
now redirect to
where there is absolutely no mention of the Voice of Turkey radio service. It is possible to access the live stream of the English service via
but the old podcast links no longer work, and I can find nothing to provide programme or frequency information on their websites.

I e-mailed VoT, and received this reply from Seher Cemre Aytekin from the English section:

"As of April 25, TRT's newly launched English channel, TRT World has taken over the website. As the Voice of Turkey Radio, we have no authority over the content of the website. We have not been informed so far whether the new website will include VOT broadcasts or podcasts in the future. Currently, we are providing these materials via our broadcasts. We express our regrets for the inconvenience."

The live streams continue on trt.net.tr as follows:

English is usually via the VOT World stream:

Hope that helps! Alan Roe, Teddington, UK``

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1774 monitoring: confirmed Wednesday May 27 at 1325 on WRMI 9955, some guy talking about Greenland`s OYR; fair signal, no jamming for the 1315 broadcast. Also confirmed Wed May 27 at 2100 on webcast of WBCQ 7490.

** U S A. 13564 approx., May 27 at 0611, K6FRC beacon is very poor but enough to copy definitely in CW vs CODAR, sending nothing but call over and over from California; no other beacons audible in the 13550-13570 HIFER band (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1080, May 27 at 0640 UT, KRLD Dallas has QRM with fast SAH, and ID as ``Rock 105, The Kastle``. I spell it with a K since NRC AM Log shows KSLL Price UT, as // K285AB 104.9, ``Rockin` the Kastle with Classic Rock``, and AM stereo.

Real good news this week!

May 29 2015

Hi radio heritage friends:

There's a lot happening to make our website much better for you to use, and our radio heritage project stronger! We'll be adding some highlights from our recent annual report to www.radioheritage.net soon.

And, now read on.............now we can start to focus on saving radio memories and memorabilia with less worries...we hear every day of people and stations just trashing their history, their heritage..tossing it all out when they're moving, when they end a hobby or interest...so much is irreplaceable and we could weep at what's still being lost...for 10 years now we've started just one memory at a time, one piece of memorabilia..and yes, it's worth saving. It really is.

More Good News
_____________

Finally after months of delays, we now have confirmation that 50% of the weekly costs should be underwritten from July 1.....it's a very generous arrangement. It should take a big pressure off us, even though we'll still require $225 each week from elsewhere. So please consider joining the journey with us so finally we can do more to keep the radio memories and share the wonderful stories and other memorabilia in our collections.


The next few weeks
__________________

For April 1 -June 30 [our first quarter] our operational costs are $A5,834, and so far we have $A3,470 thanks to generous ongoing donors. But, that leaves us with $A2,364 still to find to make these good news events start to happen in the coming weeks. Will you help be able to help us? It's less than $1 each from the people on this mailing list, over 225 of whom continue to give generously year after year to help fund this global radio memories project.

As you know. we accept donations at www.radioheritage.net, acknowledge donors by name on the honor roll, and remind you that we get no government or institutional grants...we're independent, and free for the community to use. But we rely on the community to fund us, it's as simple as that. We're a non-profit, run by volunteers. We meet the many needs of the thousands of people who visit www.radioheritage.net each month.....................

Again, thanks for staying true!
______________________________

Thank you so much for your patience! I'm sure you almost as frustrated getting these sorts of emails as we are sending them out. The reality is that few businesses want to partner us because we're too small, it's an issue facing thousands upon thousands of non-profits everywhere.

If you've heard from us recently and/or responded already, thank you for your patience. It is sincerely welcomed.

Radio Heritage Foundation
