Glenn Hauser logs August 24-25-26, 2016

** BANGLADESH. 15505, Aug 26 at 1400:05.5, 5+1 mis-timesignal ending is pretty close from BB, after theme IS, before opening Urdu service. Has been a long time since I had enough very poor signal to perceive this (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MALAYSIA. 6050.003 to 6050.008, Aug 24 at 1247, two separate measurements of S3-S5 signal here presumed to be Asyik FM. Can`t get it up to 6050.011 where Wolfy put it the other day. Margin of error, or varies slightly? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NIGERIA [and non]. 7255-, Aug 25 at 0602, no signal from VON, AWOL; 7285 South Africa is still audible very poorly (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, Aug 26 at 0104, JBA carrier from R. Chaski until autocutoff at 0105:21*, which is 32.5 seconds later than last clocking 5 days earlier, Aug 21 until 0104:48.5, slippage averaging 6.5 seconds later per noctem (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 9545, Aug 25 at 0550, S4 signal with some music and talk, presumed only known occupant, SIBC, again on later than usual 0500*. Someone said the normal schedule is until 0800 before switching to 5020, but I think not, as usually no signal audible after 0500. No doubt they are flexible as to QSY time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1839 monitoring: confirmed Wed Aug 24 at 2100 on WBCQ webcast, and then very poor on 7490. Wed Aug 24 at 2330, not audible at first from WBCQ 9330, off or not propagating; but detectable at 2357 on 9330.02, poor.

WORLD OF RADIO 1840: ready for first broadcasts Thu Aug 25: 1130 on WRMI 9955 should have been first but zzz here. Confirmed Thu Aug 25 at 2100 on WRMI 13695, VG.

** U S A. 11580, Aug 26 at 1325, WRMI `World Music` in a string of hymns/praise music, some with Xmas theme. Not so eclectic; but by 1346 something South-Asian, and more past 1359 ID pause (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 17775, Wednesday Aug 24 at 1900, KVOH quits Spanish and signs off in English, then plays guitar IS alternating with IDs until 1905*. Not checked every day, but some Fridays, Spanish praising has stayed on way later than 1900 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
