Bretagne 5, l'unica "francese" in onde medie

Dopo quindici anni di attesa, delusioni, ostinazione, battaglie contro un'amministrazione kafkiana, da settembre Bretagne 5 trasmette finalmente in onde medie. Dal 1 gennaio è accessibile anche in rete l'unica trasmissione radio francese in onde medie, che trasmette sui 1593 kHz, rimasta dopo la disattivazione di tutti i trasmettitori pubblici francesi di France Blu e France Info. Il progetto della radio bretone è nato nel 1999. Già allora, malgrado l'85% dei ricevitori fossero in grado di ricevere quella banda, le onde medie non interessavano più a nessuno, ha dichiarato Stéphane Hamon, segretario generale dell'associazione che la gestisce e figura principale dell'emittente. Le onde medie permettono di coprire zone più ampie di quanto non riesca a fare un trasmettitore FM, e sono essenziali per la copertura di aree rurali distanti dalle città principali, e con il suo trasmettitore nel cuore del paese, Bretagne 5 dovrebbe riuscire a coprire l'intera regione, comprese quelle di difficile copertura. Non è stato semplice, come dimostra l'iter non ancora concluso in Italia, convincere il CSA (il regolatore francese) ad autorizzare le onde medie ad operatori privati come Bretagne 5, ma l'associazione decisa ad andare avanti, negli anni ha costruito le proprie infrastrutture, studi e postazione trasmittente, decisa ad andare avanti in ogni caso, anche in stato di illegalità, insomma, qualora non fosse arrivata la regolare autorizzazione, si sarebbe operato come emittente pirata. E invece, finalmente, dopo oltre 15 anni di attesa, il 21 aprile, 2015, arriva finalmente la tanto agognata consessione, che ha permesso a Bretagna 5 di aprire i battenti e di cominciare contestualmente una nuova lotta, quella dello sbarco sulla rete digitale DAB operativa in Francia, anche se Stéphane Hamon continua a credere che le onde medie abbiano ancora un futuro davantio a se. In bocca al lupo agli amici francesi, sperando siano d'esempio per la nascente radiofonia privata in Italia.

Glenn Hauser logs January 29-30, 2016

** ALBANIA. 7465, Jan 30 at 0228, R. Tirana IS at S7, which is insufficient, but quite a bit stronger than the adjacents on 7460 and 7470. 0230 sign-on is too weak to copy what the frequency announcement says. Needs modulation processing boost, such as OPTIMOD (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 4765, Jan 30 at 0226, again no signal from R. Progreso; altho I did not report it, 24.6 hours earlier, Jan 29 at 0149, I had noted it was on, with music. So quite unreliable now. Presumably not the source of the 4765 I heard at 1300 Jan 29, rather Tajikistan, altho Cuba was still audible on 5025. Official sked of Cuba 4765 is only 0130-0500 UT during winter time, altho Aoki fails to make the shift from summer timing as 0030-0400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH. 3320, Jan 30 at 1356, very poor, talk seems Korean, which fits for only listing, Pyongyang BS as in Aoki, or PBS Pyongyang Pansong as in EiBi. 

Also a few minutes earlier had weak 2850, KCBS Pyongyang as in both, but separate services altho same site coördinates per Aoki, and both 50 kW ND (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 3280, Jan 30 at 1357 UT, S7 music and talk which matches 1640 KZLS, so second harmonic. Since this attenuates but does not go away as I reduce RF sensitivity on the R75, I think it is really propagated from east of Hennessey site rather than receiver overload. 

Fortunately there is no longer an Ecuadorian to block here at night, tho there is in EiBi: OYR Aasiaat Radio, Greenland, in English presumably marine weather broadcasts for 10 minutes (USB?) at various H+:05 and H+:35 night and day including 0335, 0635 UT (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1810 monitoring: confirmed on UTwente SDR, Netherlands, Saturday Jan 30 underway at 1535 UT on 7265-CUSB, Hamburger Lokalradio, Göhren, Germany; today I`m copied at R5, well over the CCI from CRI --- what a difference this week, compared to last and other weeks. Next: 

Sat 2030v  WA0RCR 1860-AM ND? 

Sun 0410v  WA0RCR 1860-AM ND? 

Sun 0900   WRMI 5850 to NW 

Mon 0400v  WBCQ 5110v-CUSB Area 51 to WSW

Mon 0430.5 WRMI 9955 to SSE  

Tue 1200   WRMI 9955 to SSE

Wed 1415.5 WRMI 9955 to SSE

Wed 2200   WBCQ 7490v to WSW

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5109.7-CUSB, UT Sat Jan 30 at 0221 rock music, 0223 live(?) timecheck as 23 past the hour, outro as Joe Jackson, Blaze of Glory, Radio Free Dishnuts ID, plugging another show coming up at top-of-hour, contact WA4WGA@arrl.net, i.e. Ray Mahorney, and RFD ID. So this is on for another Friday night, altho supposedly was only on Jan 2 as an experiment; I also heard it last week Jan 23, despite never appearing on the WBCQ 5110 schedule! Larry Will has circulated new programming info for WBCQ, not including this, or maybe he is just not aware of it, but does say: ``minus: Sat 0200-0300 5110 Grogcast (last broadcast for now was 16 Jan 2016)``. 

Meanwhile at 0221 Jan 30, 9330 is off, and only 7489.92 has `Allan Weiner Worldwide` for a few more minutes before JIPping to Brother Scare. But from Feb 2, the 0200-0300 hour 7 days a week on 9330 will be occupied by: ``0200-0300 9330 Word of Deliverance (starting 2 Feb 2016)`` per Larry Will, and bumping WORLD OF RADIO UT Fridays to an hour later from 0300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 3195, Jan 30 at 0240, another rant from Dave, pushing for evangelists to broadcast to Cuba over WWRB as Cubans have to use SW to learn English. Is fed up with the ``pastor two-step`` he`s heard for 20 years, i.e. excuses from religionists for not buying SW time, rather concentrating on local building funds, etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

 

** VATICAN [non]. 7425, Jan 30 at 0227, VR IS at S8 mixing with R. Martí audio, tnx to the Greenville leapfrog mixing product of 7305 over 7365 for another few minutes. Altho I have reported this repeatedly, and it is certainly a regular transmission, 7425 has failed to be listed by Aoki or EiBi, let alone HFCC, discriminating against mixing products despite their proven existence. 

Aoki also shows a strange timing of 0150-0245 for VR on 7305, one of the components of this, rather than 0145-0230, an unexpected B-15 shift from 0200-0245 previously in A-15 (altho the 7305 carrier is on as much as 10 minutes earlier, producing the 7425 mixing by 0135, but only with Martí audio, which can also be heard barely bleeding into 7305 itself) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)  

** YEMEN [non]. 11860, Jan 30 at 1455, usual amazingly good signal from R. Sana`a with music, 1500 sharp into Arabish talk, and --- Maghrib sunset call to prayer is back, whew! starting at 1500:27.5, back in step with gaisma.com calculated sunsets today: 1500 UT both in Sana`a and Aden (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1500, Jan 30 at 0220-0255 UT, like last night, the double-mystery remains here, with KSTP nulled as much as possible, ringing/screeching sound coming out of some demented transmitter, and blues music coming from another, never any announcements heard, let alone ID, altho I am not listening constantly, but at 0220 UT, 0235 UT, 0255 UT chex (this time from 0258 I`m on 1530 in case Yankee Doodle makes it under WCKY from Pinheira: not) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

 

UNIDENTIFIED. 3325, Jan 30 circa 1355, JBA music, Indonesia? I`m scanning the 90m band for a new signal, as Ian in Oz has been tantalizing us with hints about a reactivated Oceania station with a new 10 kW transmitter. Later it`s revealed to be NBC Bougainville here and on day frequency testing sporadically at night, 6020, both of which Ron Howard has now heard and IDed. 

Trouble is, RRI is still on 3325 as well, say Ron and Tony Magon in NSW! Geez, when making a comeback, why in the world don`t they do it on a clear frequency?? Clues from Ian included ``Cu``, leading me to PNG where there are several copper mines, but which? Wewak 3335/6140 would have worked too. 

Due to secessionism during previous SW activity, we granted BOUGAINVILLE separate radio country status, which is no more dubious than some club already breaking up PNG into more than one country for QSL and counting purposes. Current WRTH 2016 does not mark 3325 as inactive, but does for 6020. They are listed as: ``NBC Buka, `Maus Bilong Sankamap`, Buka ARB`` Which means the Voice of the Sunrise, but what`s ARB? Altho integrated within PNG now, it`s Autonomous Region of Bougainville, and BTW, ARB is so far out that unlike the rest of PNG on UT +10, this is on UT +11, just to be different. See also UNID 5960- log (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 3360, Jan 30 at 1355, JBA carrier here during my 90m scan for new signals. Nothing listed here except in Aoki, long-defunct Upano, Ecuador. Could be MW harmonic from 1680, 1120, 840 or 560 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5055-USB, Jan 30 at 1348, 2-way in Spanish exchanging max and min Celsius temperature readings, rainfall (lluvia) amounts, etc. Some trouble copying each other. Sounds like it`s something serious and official, at least à la MARS, rather than poachers interjecting putas every few seconds. Seems Mexico has no rules requiring such stations to identify (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5960-, Jan 30 at 1340, again hearing a JBA carrier off-frequency here, like Radio Fly once was, by a PNG copper-mining company, making me wonder if this was the hinted mystery reactivation instead of 3325/6020, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

The World’s Most Unusual DX Contest Results

* At last!  The Results of Last Years Wavescan DX Contest

            We here at the AWR DX program “Wavescan” take pleasure in announcing today the list of winners for the big 2015 Annual DX Contest, “The World’s Most Unusual DX Contest”.  This contest took place during the months of October and November, and all entries were received at the Indianapolis address by the end of December.  You will remember that our big 2015 DX contest invited participants to provide information in five different areas:-

            1. You were invited to design your own DX contest in any way and in whatever form you                                  choose.          

            2. You were invited to describe how you have fulfilled the requirements of your own self-designed DX contest.

            3. Please list what you consider is the best QSL that you have received since the 2014 DX contest?

            4. Provide three reception reports for the broadcast on shortwave, mediumwave or FM of any AWR programming in any part of the world.

            5. Where possible, provide three radio cards for the Indianapolis Heritage Collection.

            We are grateful again for the large number of entries received this year from so many countries around the world, and we appreciate the time consuming effort that so many listeners exerted in preparing their excellent entries.  As always, we note that many entries were from new participants this year, and we are grateful also to those who have entered on previous occasions during the past 40 years of contesting. 

            As in all previous contests, there were many entries of particularly high quality, some even in a book style of presentation.  The QSL cards and color copies of QSL cards are appreciated, and the story behind so many of these interesting QSLs will be presented here in Wavescan over a long period of time, one each week.

            From a long list of entries, we have chosen the following listeners to whom awards will be sent in due course.

            Here are the 2015 Continental Winners, each of whom will receive a copy of the 2016 edition of the “World Radio TV Handbook”:-

                                                        Continental Winners

* Africa Middle East     Shaikh Jawahar          Major City         Mid East    Most precious QSLs

* Asia                            Harumasa Yokoi         Nagoya             Japan         One day listening

* Europe                       Rumen Pankov           Sofia                             Bulgaria     Countries that jam

* North America           Andrew Lisowski         Springfield VA   USA          Logging continents

* South America           Jose Roberto Cunha  Jardim Perola   Brazil          Five hard stations

* Pacific/Asian Islands  Eddy Probowo             Jakarta            Indonesia   Multiple reports

            Among the many outstanding entries in this year’s contest, neat, colorful and nicely prepared, we have chosen the following to receive the Award of Merit:-

Award of Merit

            * India             Sheikh Shamim         Trivandrum     Focus on Time

            * Israel            David Crystal             Gilboa             Relations listener & station

            * Ukraine        Bondar Volodimir       Frankivsk        Monitoring different SW bands

            * UAE             Dr. Avinash Cheekoth           Al Ain              Letters of Alphabet

            * USA             Patrick Hector                        Woodland       First and last QSLs    

           

            And now, the name of the World Winner in our big 2015 listener contest: “Design Your Own DX Contest”.  This year’s winner presented a most unique procedure in order to obtain a QSL card.  He observed that some of the longwave chronohertz stations emit a signal that can be received by a specific type of clock, an Atomic Clock, if you please.  The signal from the radio station adjusts the readout of the time on the clock.  He will receive a book of his choice, one of the authoritative volumes on shortwave history written by the noted radio historian Jerome Berg of suburban Boston in the United States.

World Winner

                        The World Winner for 2015 is:- Mikio Kohara of Osaka in Japan

            We might also add that the entry from Jose Roberto da Silva Cunha in Jardim Perola, Brazil, as mentioned above as the Continental Winner for South America, was judged to be a close runner up in second place in this year’s contest, due to his splendid, colorful and neat presentation.   

            Once again, we acknowledge with appreciation the many entries in this year’s 2015 Design Your Own DX Contest.  Thank you for participating, and we trust that you enjoyed participating as much as we did in perusing all of your interesting entries.  All entries will be acknowledged through the post, and all reception reports will be verified, though it will take time, well into this New Year 2016, to process them all.

            We invite you to enter our 2016 DX Contest, which will run during the month of August.  This will be the final Wavescan DX contest, and you are invited to make a list of your QSL cards from Adventist World Radio, one for each shortwave transmitter site.  How many AWR shortwave sites have you verified?  You will be given a temporary postal address for our 2016 DX contest in due course.  Full details will be announced quite soon.

Glenn Hauser logs January 29, 2016

** CHINA. 6200, Jan 29 at 1339, S9+10 western pop songs, 1342, slow romantic song by YL; presumed V. of Jinling, Nanning (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** CUBA. 10345, Jan 29 at 0605, YL Spanish spy numbers alternating with digital blaaps, with some noise at S9+40. Still going past 0646. I really find these broadcasts quite boring and usually skip them; however, this one was first noted on 11735, mixed with KCRC ESPN, +1390 kHz away caused by overloading R75 unless I ATT it, turn off preamp (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 15700, Jan 29 at 1401, CRI English relay at S9+30 is instead open carrier/dead air except for some hum; modulation cuts on after 1402, joining news in progress. This happens far too often tnx to the sloppyrators in Cuba, but at least they are on the right frequency today (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GREECE. 9935, Jan 29 at 0653, VOG on with Greek talk, very poor signal and modulation seems defective, much weaker than 9420 at 0656 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA. 11670, Jan 29 at 2147, surprised to hear ``Abide With Me``, a Christian hymn on AIR GOS, but maybe the tune is otherwise known in India? Surely not a missionary station intruding on the frequency after Cuba has finished doing so at 2130. Then a military band which is more like AIR, and at 2150 even more so with a South Asian song. Heavy flutter from S9 to S5, which is what`s left of a 500 kW transpolar signal aimed 325 degrees from Bengaluru (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KYRGYZSTAN. 4009.84, Jan 29 at 1312, S5 carrier, presumed Radio 1 - Birinichi Radio, which has been reported recently off-frequency as 4009.9 by Eike Bierwirth. Aoki shows on the air from 00 to 19 UT, with a few segments in western languages, not mentioned in the WRTH, such as German M-F at 1410-1420, Dutch Wed only at 1420-1450.

Dutch?! Virtually a goner from SW since the self-destruxion of Radio Nederland. ADDX language schedule shows only a couple of private programs/stations on 6005, presumably via Germany, not a bit by international broadcasters. Of course, The Mighty KBC includes some Dutch at least for commercials, and there are scads of pirates mainly in the X-band (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PAPUA NEW GUINEA [and non]. 7325-, Jan 29 at 1325, all I can hear is one poor signal in Japanese, CRI; but from 1357 it`s off and I do hear a JBA carrier on the lo side, so Wantok Radio Light is still there (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SAUDI ARABIA. 21505.025, Jan 29 at 1411, Arabic music and talk from BSKSA, always off-frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TAJIKISTAN. 4765, Jan 29 at 1300, S9 carrier is just barely modulated, probably R. Tajikistan near grayline, on air 23-20 UT per EiBi. See also KYRGYZSTAN (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TIBET [non]. 11517, Jan 29 at 1414, S7 talk and a weaker carrier on 11512, i.e. V. of Tibet via TAJIKISTAN. Nominal switchover from 11512 to 11517, per Ivo, is 1415, but this indicates they are two separate transmitters. Also some noise around 11510, maybe jamming; and at 1416 another JBA carrier on 12007, which would have been used in the previous hour, but always shifting around (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** U S A. 4041.0-USB, Jan 29 at 1313, informal Army MARS net commenting on reception; 1316 ID fonetikaly as AAR7AD and AAR7AH; then they discuss some abbr`d calls from roster such as 7RL and IA. Seems the net call is A7A.

AAR7AH is Lt. Col. Don Palmer, also in the Nebraska wing of the CAP.

Google search on AAR7AD leads right to this interesting autobio at

411 Catalpa Street

Independence, KS 67301

USA

I was first licensed in December of 1962 at the age of 13 years old. My first station was a SX-99 receiver and a Adventure transmitter. My original call sign was WN5FFK, and my home was in Blackwell, Oklahoma. I then received WA5FFK when I passed my general, and I now have the vanity call sign of W5FFK. I went on the air on Christmas eve, 1962 since my Adventure transmitter was my Christmas [gift]. I still have the Johnson Viking Adventure and try to make a contact with it each Christmas season.

My profession is a broadcast engineer and electronics technician. I used to own radio station KOKB, a 1000 watt daytime [sic] AM on 1580 kHz, in Blackwell, OK.

I also installed 5 radio stations in the country of Honduras, in Central America while working with Evangelistic Faith Missions. In all total our family served in Honduras for 16 years. Many have listened to HRPC broadcasting from San Luis, Honduras on 3250 kHz.

I am a retired Army signal officer. Serving as the Communications and Electronic Officer of the 1/189 Field Artillery Battalion, and the 45th Infantry Brigade.

I returned back to the United States from Honduras in 2006 and worked several years as a Avionics Tech for Cessna Aircraft company, in Independence, Kansas. now I work in the electrical department for Standard Motors Corporation, in their engineering lab, Independence, Kansas.

I married my wife, Devona in 1971 and we are still together. I have two daughters, and two grandsons. My oldest daughter, Sheryl Denision, has the call KB5QNL. My youngest daughter Kara Moore, is KC0UXI.

My interest mainly now is in vintage radio, on 80 meters and 160 meters. I am a member of Army Mars, and hold the call AAR7AD.``

** U S A. 17665, Jan 29 at 1406-1409*, S9+20 open carrier, no doubt VOA Greenville test to be sure it`ll work when next needed, *1700 in Portuguese on 17655 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1810 monitoring: confirmed Friday Jan 29 at 2130 on WRMI, 15770, now quite a poor signal here off the side: let`s hope it is better off to the northeast aimed at Europe, but does the MUF hold up that far into the winter night? Also confirmed at 2130.6 on WRMI 7570, much better here aimed NW at us. Next:

** YEMEN [non]. 11860, Jan 29 at 1455-1515, Radio Sana`a, going from mostly music before 1500 to mostly talk afterwards, and no interruption for a Call To Prayer, with which it seems as if they have decided to dispense. As local sunset proceeds past 1500, it could be more disruptive to programming flow (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5959.95, Jan 29 at 1329, weak station talking in unID language, considerably off-frequency, so what could that be? Searching archive on 5959.9 gets this from 2011y; remember that one from PNG?:

``5959.980, 28.10 1033, R Fly, Tabubil LHU/PAX95 (Lars Jeppesen,

Uppsala, Sweden, SW Bulletin Nov 13 translated by editor Thomas Nilsson for DX LISTENING DIGEST) PAX95 not explained, but could be name of a DXpedition (gh)``

But this current one is perhaps more likely, tho Aoki doesn`t deal with precise frequency variations: ``5960 PBS Xinjiang 1100-1800 1234567 Chinese 100 ND Urumqi TKS 4408N 08653E XJBS b15`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. Re BOLIVIA, 6155.11, Jan 29 at 0125, JBA carrier presumed R. Fides on its habitual offset --- maybe not, since UAE site also achieves frequency inaccuracy. Ivo Ivanov reported circa Jan 26:

``Additional, unregistered frequencies of BBC

0100-0300 on  6155 DHA 250 kW / ??? deg to ???? English``

VOA Radiogram, 30-31 Jan 2016

Hoping for poor reception this weekend, because VOA Radiogram will include two slow modes (20-30 wpm), Olivia 64-2000 and MFSK8, that cope well with difficult shortwave conditions. Most of the show is in our usual MFSK32, about 120 wpm, with text and images.

Details and schedule ...

Patch audio from your radio to your PC and decode with Fldigi from w1hkj.com.  Or decode using an Android device with TIVAR: http://sourceforge.net/projects/fldigi/files/AndFlmsg/TIVAR/  With TIVAR, I usually just place my tablet or mobile phone near the radio, letting audio from the speaker enter the mic.
