** 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

** 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

** 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,

** 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 11645 100 kW / 182 deg NoAf Greek till 0557
co-ch R. Dabanga
0545-1300 15630 100 kW / 285 deg WeEu Greek is
off``
