Glenn Hauser logs July 3-4, 2016


** CUBA. UNIDENTIFIED. 9530, July 4 at 0139, JBA carrier which I often have around this time, also lite pulse jamming. A more likely explanation here than the second harmonic of Tajikistan, which Rumen Pankov often reports from Bulgaria, is 2 x 4765, Radio Progreso, CUBA. Just too weak to make out any music compared to what`s on 4765 now. 

Need to monitor whether the two cut off at exactly the same time circa 0400*. Which is exactly what I do July 4 starting just before 0400 --- 9530 with JBA carrier on the R75, 4765 with R. Progreso on the PL-880, each offset to different BFO pitches, and with two headphones overlapping on my head, one to each ear. And they do! Both cut off at exactly the same time, 0401:32*. So a definite ID on this. 

Now we need to look for further Progreso harmonix on 14295, 19060, just like Tajikistan; while the fifth on 23825, sixth on 28590 would be far less likely on the after-dark-only schedule starting at 0030 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6165, July 4 at 0154, RHC English is S9+20 but just barely modulated, much softer sounding than // 6000 at S9+30 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MADAGASCAR. 15480.010, July 3 at 1952, music at S7-S9, brief announcement and off at 1959*. It`s AWR Arabic (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7610.01-AM, July 4 at 0131, soft music, S6 vs S9 Kansas storm noise level; still at 0200. Also UNIDENTIFIED to many in this thread, described as atmospheric music, like on Hearts of Space.
Cf last night when 7610 bore MAC Shortwave/Red Beacon Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** UGANDA [non]. 15239.978, Sunday July 3 at 1610, WWRB with R. Munansi already, judging from the Luganda (?) lecturer, with long pauses, at first wondering if modulation is cutting out rather than his own style of speaking. S9 signal, then mod seems OK. 1822 recheck, still talk with pauses, modulation OK. So it seems that R. Munansi mostly-talk programming airs Sat 1700-1900, Sun 1600-1900, with the previous hour on Saturday attempted to be occupied by music from same source (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1832 monitoring: confirmed Sunday July 3 at 2330 on WBCQ 9330.002-CUSB, S9. Also confirmed UT Monday July 4 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, very good. Also confirmed UT Monday July 4 at 0300 on Area 51 webcast, and at 0327 on WBCQ 5129.908-AM, S9+20. Also confirmed UT Monday July 4 at 0330 on WRMI 9955, good. Next:

** U S A. 12104.96, July 4 at 0144, WTWW-3 now S9 with Bibling in Spanish, during the hour which used to be occupied by PPPP Junior in English, i.e. more of same SFAW but not // WTWW-1, which is S9+45 on 9475-. Seems the #3 schedule, if any, is being rejiggered, following the long silence (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
