** CUBA. 13634 & 13766 approx., Nov 30 at 1526, RHC 13700 is putting out these not very strong spurblobs on FM/AM/F#, none audible beyond. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS. 9905.030, Nov 30 at 1609, S4-S5 Chinese talk so I bet it`s SAIPAN, well-known for frequency laxness. Yes, exactly, this hour only on weekends, Radio Free Asia (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Ha ha, that is the only ``local`` signal (altho it claims to be on channel 41 in faraway Ardmore); but Enid easily watches TV channels from OKC with outside/rooftop antennas, or even carefully positioned rabbit ears, distance roughly 65 miles. What do they know? If aim of this site be to sell antennas, they are failing miserably. Seems to be part of titantv listings (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 91.7, Nov 30, time not noted, one of the constantly repeating promos for KOSU financial support mentions that, ahem, all things considered, it costs $285 per hour for KOSU to operate. One seldom hears such a figure from public -- or any -- radio stations, so I wonder how it compare to others; and exactly how they computed it. Presumably includes opcosts for relays KOSN, KOSR, translators (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U A E. 11655.116, Nov 30 at 1603, VP talk way off-frequency. Of course, scheduled here at 1600-1630 only is IBRA Radio/Radio Ibrahim, in Afar via dha where something is always wrong with their frequencies (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2010 monitoring: almost confirmed Saturday November 30 at 2050 the 2030v on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, Wentzville MO. I do have a JBA signal with talk rather like my ``monotone``, but blocked by heavy local line noise which still infests this part of the spectrum. Next:

** U S A. 1010, Nov 30 at 0700 UT, ID for KBBW Waco and several FMs, ``Legendary 10-10 AM everywhere in central Texas``. KBBW night pattern has two tight lobes at 160 and 290 degrees, hardly anything thisaway. Day pattern not much better for us, very minor lobe at 350, broad major lobe at 170. FCC info does not mention any translators or FM affiliates. But website is headed:

``KBBW 1010 AM 105.7 FM 101.3 FM 100.3 FM - Life Changing .. kbbw.com

105.7 FM in Waco, 101.3 FM in Killeen-Temple, 

100.3 FM in Georgetown-Round Rock-Cedar Park

and everywhere on the legendary 1010 AM. 

Keep Boldly Believing the Word``

Yes, it`s 100% gospel huxtering. Website http://kbbw.com/ is nothing but a program sked. See also unID 1010 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VATICAN [non]. 5930, Nov 30 at 1520, Asian language at S6-S9. Aoki shows it`s VR via USAGM Tinang, PHILIPPINES, in Malayalam; thus violating Separation of Church and State (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1010, Nov 30 at 0659 UT just before full ID for KBBW Waco TX, q.v., I hear another ID sounding like KGJO -- but no such listing nor anything fuzzily similar to be found in NRC AM Log, or FCC AM Query. Nor is there any such call on FM in case that were a reference. Ideas? (Glenn Hauser, OK,, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1521, Nov 30 circa 1840 UT = local mean noon, ~1 kHz het upon 1520 KOKC, on caradio, but it`s fleeting. IIRC last winter there were signs of this in broad daylight, and it seemed not inconceivable that with low winter suns, the two megawatts from Sa`udi Arabia could be skywaving such a trace this far, this early. But then there`s that other off-frequency American, much closer (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6030, Nov 30 at 1521, JBA carrier -- could it be CFVP reactivated? Other 6030s active at this time per Aoki:

6030 1430-1530 IND AIR VOICE OF KASHMIR     Kas Delhi (King 1-7  

6030 0900-1805 CHN CNR 1 (DRM) 3FF          Chi Beijing 572 1-7

6030 1530-2000 ETH Radio Oromiya            Afa Addis Ababa 1-7  

Of those, I suppose Delhi most likely (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn Hauser logs November 29-30, 2019

** AFGHANISTAN [non]. 15640, in last report that`s Radio Azadi, not typo Axadi (gh)

** CUBA. 9620-9660, Nov 29 at 2222, RHC Spanish 9640 with buzz noise extending out to this range; worst peaks below plus/minus 13 kHz. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA. 9445, Nov 29 at 2220, English interview with Indian accents, AIR as scheduled, partially readable at S5-S9; also DRM noise 7545-7550-7555 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA SOUTH. 9095, Nov 29 at 2217 weak talk presumed Korean from Echo of Hope on this week`s jumparound frequency. Fortunately, since right above it 9095 past 9100 is some kind of noise, perhaps jamming if not DRM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 33, Nov 29 at 2203 UT, exploring the OKC DTV subchannels, I find that KOCB now runs Dabl on 34-4! Despite the fact that RF 27 KFOR has already been carrying DABL on 4-4 from its outset in September. Yes, now on two non-co-owned stations in the same city, but one with PSIP all-CAPS, the other not. At this time both with Martha Stewart show --- can never get enough of her! How can this happen? Net`s own website  https://www.dabl.com/locations still shows KFOR only! (And the search by zip code funxion goes nowhere for 73101 or 73701; have to keep loading more till we get to Oklahoma.) A quick look thru the list does not find another city with two affiliates other than primary and translator. Rabbitears.info does show Dabl correctly on both in OKC. IMHO, Dabling on just one is a waste of spectrum (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, Nov 29 at 2353, R. Chaski carrier quite audible vs Cuban wall-of-noise jamming against nothing else; and for the fourth night in a row its autotimer cutoff has slipped another 2 seconds earlier to: 2355:21* (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SAUDI ARABIA. 1521, Nov 29 at 2210, already hearing a +1 kHz het upon 1520 KOKC; in fact two hets of different pitches, the other one perhaps KRHW in MO as previously discussed. From 2229 I am listening intently, isolating the 1521.0 carrier by tuning to 1520.8-USB. It goes off sometime between 2231 and 2232, but can`t tell exactly when as KOKC is splashing some music that minute; must be an ad during talk format. Bruce Conti, NH, in NRC IDXD had timed the cutoff exactly twice, which is what I am trying to match: 

``1521 SAUDI ARABIA SBC R.Riyadh, Duba  OCT 12 2215 - Good; talk and music parallel 9555 and 9870 kHz. 1521 off at 2231:40 UTC after solemn talk with soft orchestra music.  OCT 19 2230 - Good; off at 2231:40. [Conti-NH]`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 11720, November 29 at 2150, I finally remember to tune in VOA`s `Music Time in Africa` before it`s over, its only chance via Grimesland NC during B-seasons Fridays at 2100-2200 now here instead of 15580, and a VG signal almost directly off the back. The last dekaminute at least: an archive segment of polyphony from the Pygmies of Central African Republic. Hyper Heather Maxwell refers us to the website for thousands of archived songs: voanews.com\mtia-archive --- she says, yes, ``backslash`` instead of forwardslash, altho it makes no difference and calling it ``slant`` as I do is far less menacing and more euphonious. In fact that url autoconverts to: https://www.voanews.com/mtia-archive with a forwardslash. Her closing announcement still fails to mention this very time among the several for her program. Yankee-Doodle-Dandy sign-off is cut off before it can finish (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2010 monitoring: confirmed first SWBC, Friday November 29 at 2300 UT on WRMI 9955: exactly like the previous weeks since standard time replaced 2200 UT, initially JBA beneath heavy wall-of-noise Cuban jamming even tho there is no exile programming now, let alone anything in Spanish. BUT noise steadily abates as WRMI strength seems to simulgrow audiblizing me by the middle of the intro, clear enough by 2303, and totally clear of jamming in only a few more minutes. By 2326 it`s good S9+10, and I notice concluding several seconds before 2329 implying that playout started before 2300:00 when I could not hear whether anything was upcut.

Also confirmed UT Sat Nov 30 at 0147, the 0130 on three WRMI frequencies, 5850 VG >> 5010 fair >> 7780 VP. At this time I daresay that I have better coverage than AW does on WBCQ: see separate report; as I tuned over here to check me during his show. Note: it was not my idea for us to be on simultaneously. Next:

1300 UT Saturday  WRMI 15770 to NE

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9330, 7490+, 5130-, Nov 30 at 0030, WBCQ is VP on all three, and no signals on 6160+ or 3265-, so I don`t even try to hear `AAAWWW` on SW, rather webcast. At 0100 transition to Studio 9 in DeLand of FLA, there is again several seconds of noise/feedback? before WTO theme start. First half hour is almost continuous monolog; first about sharing one good mic from the 1930s instead of the no-good wireless mics last time; then about chemtrails/contrails --- unlike Angela, it seems Allan is not convinced by the conspiracy theories about them. 

(Altho I do not allege serious health effects or government malfeasance, I am concerned about all the jet exhaust over Enid from Vance leading to a buildup of greasy dust even inside; and TG if two of them had to crash recently, they were near the base runway instead of within the city of Enid! -- gh)

Then AW rants about bikers refusing to muffle their noise, as some kind of macho nonsense --- something else I can agree with him upon! Not until about 0130 does he morph into insulting 535 members of Congress and ``moonbats`` when I tune away; as many listeners could then productively hear relatively apolitical WOR on WRMI, WRMI or WRMI, q.v.

Checking WBCQ SW again at 0140, I find that 7490 has improved to P-F; 9330 is *not* carrying AAAWWW as expected but WLC gospel huxtering in English; 5130 is now arriving even better than 7490 so I monitor there for a while; not until 0141 does he timestamp this show as live, 29 November, YOOL 2019. He does not know if he`s on any frequency besides 7490 (what became of the othershow for weeks this hour on 5130?) 

He says a bit about the S-S: now full 23 hpd sked (well, not this morning, when off for a few hours), with break at 22-23 UT for maintenance at discretion of operators. Will stick to 9330 only this winter, go up to some higher frequencies with spring. Lauds his big crew in Monticello by name, but still looking for more operators and engineers knowledgeable about high-power/voltage, and is now hiring, starting with job interviews, why in the world would they want to live  at the end of the world in winter? Says the output tube costs $210,000 and takes 15 minutes for the filament to warm up. 

No time is available on the S-S, WLC exclusive, but plenty time on the other ``classic`` transmitters. 6160 reconditioned, would like to rent it to some network for 4-8 hpd at a much reduced bulk rate. S-S at 500 kW output consumes like a million watts for a huge power bill more than a classic would in 10 years (? not sure of that as 5130 is fading). 0153 he`s reading some Free Radio Weekly pirate logs, just received from cosmikdebris? At 0156 I switch back to webcast: talking about tango music this Sunday on program #776 --- was that e-mail from from `Marion`s Attic`? At 0200 sharp, canned AW ID cuts off live AW still talking, making way for Hal Turner. Don`t know what ensued exactly on the SW frequencies. 

Here`s John Carver`s quite similar report:

Tonight's show started just a bit late. Could only find a signal on 5130 and wasn't sure if I was hearing a new show or not as the date wasn't announced till nearly half way through the program. Program opened with lots of moaning about microphones and how they were down to just one mic in the Florida studio. Then Allan recounted a tale of two wireless mics he bought from Ebay for forty some dollars apiece and stated that they worked like forty dollar mics and had been trashed. Then some talk from Angela about a conversation she had with her father yesterday about chemtrails. Prompting Allan to read an article from Wikipedia on the subject. Allan says they're harmless, Angela said they're harmful. Then they were talking about motorcycles without mufflers which started Allan talking about trying to run an antique automobile without a muffler and how upset people would be if they weren't muffled.

After a couple other topics, Allan announced that WLC had taken over the superstation and their programming was now running twenty-three hours a day. He stated that for most of the winter they would remain on 9330 and try the other frequencies when it was closer to spring. He again issued a plea for anyone with engineering experience that wanted a job to contact him as they could use them for the superstation. He also announced that they were broadcasting the program on 7490 and that he didn't believe they were on any other frequency. I had no signal on 7490, 6160 or 3265 and the only signal I could find was 5130. 9330 has WLC.

In station news he said there was lots of free time available on 7490. Said they had lots of requests to lease time on 9330 but he would lease no time on that frequency. He talked briefly about the work done on the 6160 transmitter earlier this year and said he wanted a network to take over that transmitter. Said that there was still lower prices on 5130 and didn't mention 3265 at all. He also stated that the superstation used as much power in a day as a normal home would use in ten years or longer.

Started reading last week's Free Radio Weekly at 0154 and then went into regular emails. Program was cut off in mid-sentence at 0200 and 5130 immediately went into a rerun of an earlier AAWWW. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

New Algerian MW Station on 576 kHz

The tone tester heard these latest days on 576Khz has become a new broadcasting service from RTA (Algeria). Broadcasting started today 29th in the afternoon from Kenadsa (Béchar) according to MW List details. The power listed is 400 Kw. They were airing Radio Bechar program (not // with Chaîne 1), but probably they will connect to RTA-Ch1, as other stations do with R. Coran, R. Culture and so on.

According to some listeners in Murcia (Spanish southeastern coast), is causing interfernces to RNE-R5 Murcia on 567 Khz, from this evening. Perhaps it will affect to this station during the night and maybe also to 576 Khz RNE-R5 Canaries (CNR).

The station reaches now, here in Northern Spain a 54444/5 SINPO.

Mike Schaffer, KA3JAW of Easton, Pennsylvania observed effects from this meteor event: https://bit.ly/2XUaYe6. This event is mentioned in the new video from WX6SWW referenced at the end of this bulletin.

Mike wrote: "I had two low, one medium, and one high quality pings on FM broadcast (89.1) during the peak which lasted for sixteen minutes from 11:52 pm - 12:08 am.

“I was using a dual-purpose home/auto Visteon HD Jump Radio with an auto monopole antenna in the horizontal plane poking out the second story radio room north window that is physically orientated to the north/south,  giving a RF beam direction from the west-east.

“Nothing was seen on the AirSpy HF+ SDR Console spectrum analyzer, waterfall displays with an Antennacraft TV VHF-Lo band (channels 2-6), five element Yagi, model Y526, laying on the top of the backyard shed with a 30 degree pitch angle aimed westerly on analog TV channel 2 (video 55.250, -/+), for detection of active Canadian stations.

“In my opinion the RF meteor scatter propagation outburst activity was fairly good within a short matter of time."

Norway 153 kHz LW closes tomorrow December 1st

From a reliable source: 153 kHz Ingøy Broadcasting Station will close tomorrow Sunday December 1st at 23.59.59 CET after 19 years of operation. In this connection, NRK will issue a "Last Day transmission" QSL, such as when Fredrikstad Broadcasting was closed. I suppose one wants as many dxers, radio listeners and interested as possible to send in listeners report on this latest broadcast from NRK P1 over Ingøy. Reports may be sent to:

Glenn Hauser logs November 28-29, 2019

** AFGHANISTAN [non]. 15640, Nov 29 at 1427, good signal sounds like Farsi, cut off at 1430*. Aoki shows it`s Dari from Radio Axadi via VATICAN at 1400-1430. Same service a.k.a. Radio Free Afghanistan at 0630-1400 alternating Dari and Pashto is via Kuwait, unlikely to serve us so well (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ALGERIA. 576, Nov 29 at 0445, JBA carrier with 1 kHz tone, also detected as separate carriers on 575 and 577, presumed Béchar testing. Have any Europeans triangulated this yet to be sure? Not specifically, but just posted to bdxc-news iogroup at 1750 Nov 29:

``New Algerian MW Station on 576 kHz --- Hi, The tone tester heard these latest days on 576 has become a new broadcasting service from RTA (Algeria). Broadcasting started today 29th in the afternoon from Kenadsa (Béchar) according to MW List details. The power listed is 400 kW. They were airing Radio Bechar program (not // with Chaîne 1), but probably they will connect to RTA-Ch1, as other stations do with R. Coran, R. Culture and so on.

According to some listeners in Murcia (Spanish southeastern coast), is causing interferences to RNE-R5 Murcia on 567, from this evening. Perhaps it will affect this station during the night and maybe also 576 kHz RNE-R5 Canaries (CNR). The station reaches now, here in Northern Spain a 54444/5 SINPO. 73! -- Jorge Garzón. EB7EFA - EA-0080URE SWL QTH 43º15' N · 03º56' W / IN83ag · Cantabria (España - Spain)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CANADA. 2749-USB, Nov 29 at 0745 UT, roboYL with weather in English, ``storm warning`` time and again for different areas, S5-S6. EiBi shows at 0740-0800 it`s VCO Sydney NS via pc site = Port Caledonia NS.

2598-USB, Nov 29 at 0749 UT, YL with forecasts in English for various coasts as far ahead as Tuesday, mentions Newfoundland Standard Time. S7 and unusually stronger than 2749 despite further. EiBi shows at 0737-0805 it`s VCP Placentia NL via site sl = St Lawrence NL (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CANADA. 401 kHz, Nov 29 at 0758 UT, dash and YHD, 500-watt NDB in Peawanuck, Ontario. See also CAYMAN.

396 kHz, Nov 29 at 0759 UT, dash and YPH, 500 watt NDB at Inukjuak, Quebec; a new one for me, so look up that place: it`s on the east shore of Hudson Bay, 2845 km = 1768 statute miles from me. ``Inukjuak is a northern village located on Hudson Bay at the mouth of the Innuksuak River in Nunavik, in the Nord-du-Québec region of northern Quebec, Canada. Its population is 1,757 as of the 2016 Canadian Census. An older spelling is Inoucdjouac; its former name was Port Harrison. Wikipedia`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CANADA. 7850-CUSB, Nov 29 at 1330, CHU is re-re-reactivated, but for how long? Not very. Gone again at 1829 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CAYMAN ISLANDS [and non]. 415 kHz, Nov 29 at 0758 UT, ND beacon CBC from Cayman Brac, best way to hear this country rather than random hams. 600 watts and I was tuned to 414-USB. Right next door to 413 dash and YHD, 250 watts in Dryden, Ontario, which are 3537 km apart (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [non]. 5040, Nov 29 at 0035, no signal from RHC but a JBA carrier, presumably the only other known 5040, All India Radio, Jeypore from 0025. Even weaker than the JBA carrier on 5060 from presumed Xinjiang. 5040 RHC still off at 0521. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GUATEMALA. 4055, Nov 29 at 0743, S9+10 open carrier with hum, surely TGAV Radio Verdad has failed to turn off its transmitter after 0610v closing, wasting watts (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, Nov 28 at 2355:23* UT, carrier cut by Radio Chaski under wall-of-noise Cuban jamming despite no OCB. Previous two nights this happened 2 or 2.5 seconds later each, so a trend is developing of slightly earlier cutoffs per 24 hours (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2010, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PHILIPPINES. 9335, Nov 29 at 1513, clip of Drumpf pardoning turkey, back to Myanmarianese once this vital news has been imparted, i.e. VOA via Tinang at 1430-1630; no QRM from 9330 WBCQ Superstation which is off again; in fact VOA is splattering down to 9330 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST

** PHILIPPINES. 9345, Nov 29 at 1515, S8-S9 some Bach causes me pause, 1517 Chinese from FEBC Iba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN. 684, Nov 29 at 0447, among all the JBA 9-kHz TA carriers, some Castilian-sounding audio here from RNE Sevilla; and at 0448 also on weaker 774 RNE synchros music, then talk (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 6125, Nov 29 circa 0454 tuneby, no TRT after English but lite Cuban pulse jamming now audible almost an hour after OCB finished, so must have QRMed VOT. But tuning back across at 0456, VOT is back on! with IS, 0458:15 & 0459:15 interspersed IDs as ``Suara Radio Turki``. 0500 timesignal 3 seconds late! and opening Malay service mentioning ``gelombang`` = wavelength. 

Trouble is, the 0500 Malay service is supposed to be on 17530! which might propagate over a day path unlike 6125 to W North America. How lucky we are to hear this, if not the Malays. Recheck at 0512, 0525 still on 6125; frequent IDs as above, and at 0514 during the mandatory multi-lingual ID reel. Something`s always wrong at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 395 kHz, Nov 29 at 0800 UT, ND beacon ULS --- I bet it`s Ulysses, Kansas. Yes; 25 watts (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) see also CANADA; CAYMAN

** U S A. 15740, Nov 28 at 1923, S9+20 open carrier; no doubt Grimesland B warming up for *1930 start on 15730, in order not to clash with Botswana site occupying 15730 until 1930* as VOA French continues (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9330.00, Nov 29 at 1512, WBCQ-6 is off again, despite nominal 23 hpd sked except 22-23 UT. Earlier I had tuned across poor signal southward in Spanish but unlogged, circa 1330? Anyhow it`s back on at 1828 poor during WLC German (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 3215, Nov 29 at 0753, S9+10/20 of dead air except for some hum and squeal from WWCR-1, much more pleasant listening than Brother HyStairical. Does he get a refund? Is it Stair`s fault or theirs? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1520, Nov 28 at 2230 UT as I am chasing the Sa`udi het from 1521 vs KOKC, other skywave QRM with partial ID mentioning two FM frequencies, 92.3 and another in the 100s. Nonesuch listed at 1520 in the NRC AM Log, but in the WTFDA FM Database, among all the USA 92.3 listings, searching on 1520 there is one hit which is quite reasonable:

``W222BG, WHOW-1520, 92.3, CLINTON IL, 0.25, 62.0, 40-05-43 88-57-51, NEWS/TALK/FARM NEWS RADIO 1520 //W293DJ 106.5``

Back to the NRC AM Log which does match WHOW with 106.5 but not 92.3, and there is no Group cross-ref. WHOW is a D3 direxional daytimer of 5000 watts, rather only 1000 during Critical Hours: ``The Big 1520 AM and 106.5 FM``.

But FCC AM Query shows it non-direxional both daytime and CH; and Nov sunset is 2245 UT (Dec: 2230 UT). Thus the synergy of these three major references (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 3344.92, Nov 29 at 0750, no signal today unlike ante-yesterday. Ron Howard replied: ``Hi Glenn, Your 3344.92 was a utility, which just happened to be on the former Ternate and PNG (NBC Northern, the Voice of Oro) frequency. On Nov 26, utility still being heard with a good level carrier 1506+. Ron, California``. BTW, Ternate is on the west coast of Sulawesi (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4966.75-USB approx., Nov 29 at 0520, 2-way in tonal language (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9130, Nov 29 at 1310, low audible het between two stations talking. Not an active frequency for SOH or anything in latest Aoki, but could well be a new one already CNR1 jammed (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Media & Tech - 29/11/2019

Propagation News – 1 December 2019

Last week’s CQ Worldwide CW event proved that a contest can really generate activity on the HF bands, despite poor propagation. Despite lukewarm predictions during this period near sunspot minimum, there was plenty of DX to be had, despite a solar flux index of only around 70, and zero sunspots. HF bands as high as 15 metres were open, with the occasional station calling CQ on 10 metres as well. Contesters report that 40m and 20m provided a lot of fun with 7MHz providing night-time openings to the US for many. Tom, GM4FDM also reports working 47 countries on 80m during CQ Worldwide, including V47T, which was St Kitts and Nevis and A44A, Oman.

Next week, as we enter December, NOAA has the solar flux index at 69 all week with a Kp index of two. This represents the fact that the Sun’s surface is clear of major coronal holes at this time.

December is really a month for the low bands, with amateurs’ attention often switching to 80m and even Top Band. 160m is always a tough band to work, mainly due to the large amounts of space needed to install efficient antennas. But this month is probably the best for working transatlantic Top Band contacts in the early hours. 80m may also bring some surprises, with regular contacts into the USA being possible, especially around sunrise. Why not check out the DX nets that occur on or around 3.795 MHz?

VHF and up:

It looks like high pressure is coming back, at least for a while in the first part of the coming week, so it’s time to get ready for some tropo activity on the VHF and UHF bands with those multimode rigs. The present unsettled weather will lead into a new high developing to the north-west of Britain, which will then begin to drift south across western Britain, before being pushed aside into the Atlantic towards Biscay around mid-week.

The developing temperature inversion should provide multiple paths across the UK by early next week, especially over western and southern areas. This is great timing for 144MHz contests on Tuesday, 3 December.

Unfortunately, this is not going to last, as the high drifts away midweek. This will allow a new, stronger flow across the north of Britain as lows move south-east down the North Sea. There will be cold north-westerly winds and some possible rain scatter options over the North Sea by the end of the week.

Moon declination is rising again this week but doesn’t go positive until Friday. This means the peak Moon elevation will also increase as the week progresses. With apogee on Thursday, path losses will be at their highest, but 144MHz sky temperature is low all week.

There are two small meteor showers to look out for this week—the Phoenecids on Monday and the Puppid-Velids next Saturday. (rsgb.org)

Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
18 - 24 November 2019

Solar activity was very low. No sunspots were observed on the
visible disk. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed in available
coronagraph imagery.

No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at
normal to moderate levels on 18-23 Nov. Moderate to high levels were
observed on 24 Nov in response to the influence of a positive
polarity CH HSS.

Geomagnetic field activity ranged from quiet to active levels. Quiet
to active levels were observed on 21-22 Nov and quiet to unsettled
on 23-24 Nov due to influence from a positive polarity CH HSS. Solar
wind speeds increased to above 600 km/s over 21 Nov and remained
elevated but in slow decline through 24 Nov. The remainder of the
reporting period was at quiet levels under nominal solar wind
conditions.

Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
25 November - 21 December 2019

Solar activity is expected to be at very low levels throughout the
outlook period.

No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is
expected to be at normal to high levels. High levels are expected on
25-28 Nov and again on 20-21 Dec. Moderate levels are expected on
01-17 Dec. All enhancements to electron flux are anticipated in
response to multiple CH HSSs.

Geomagnetic field activity is expected to range from quiet
unsettled. Unsettled conditions are expected on 25-28 Nov, 08 Dec,
and 18-21 Dec in response to multiple CH HSSs. The remainder of the
outlook period is expected be at quiet levels.

Shortwave Radiogram, 28 November-1 December 2019

Last weekend's experiment with Persian text was interesting and mostly successful. You can see a near perfect decode via an SDR in Kuwait (close to Iran) during the Sunday 2330-2400 UTC broadcast, 7780 kHz from WRMI Florida (12000 km). You can see Fldigi prints out the Persian right-to-left text by decoding from the videos and audio listed in the next paragraph. This weekend's show is in the usual MFSK32 and MFSK64, with nine images. Here is the lineup for Shortwave Radiogram, program 128,  28 November-1 December 2019, in MFSK modes as noted:  1:36  MFSK32: Program preview  2:40  Converting brewery wast to charcoal*  7:40  MFSK64: Most Americans now see signs of climate change 12:31  This week's images* 28:01  MFSK32: Closing announcements * with image(s) Please send reception reports to radiogram@verizon.net And visit http://swradiogram.net Twitter: @SWRadiogram or https://twitter.com/swradiogram (visit during the weekend to see listeners' results) Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/567099476753304

Check-ins are usually in Thor 22, and messages are in MFSK32 (PA NBEMS is experimenting with Thor 50x1 for messages). Messages generally use the Flmsg add-on to Fldigi. If you are a radio amateur in eastern North America, feel free to check in. Outside the region, use an SDR in the eastern USA to tune in and decode. You do not need Flmsg to check in, and most of the messages can be read without Flmsg. If you can decode the net, send me an email to radiogram@verizon.net , or tweet to @SWRadiogram , and I will let them know you are tuned in.
