Glenn Hauser logs April 3-4, 2013

** AUSTRALIA [and non]. 15340, April 4 at 1259, collision between HCJB and RHC, but only briefly as the two transmissions overlap. HCJB soon off and continues on 15400 at 1301 in S Asian language, now overriding Iran playing its NA, but we can only imagine the head-on collision in IndoPak. Meanwhile, nothing on 15300, IRIB`s //, but it comes on late at 1301 in the clear, altho a few minutes earlier I was hearing some weak hand-keyed CW circa (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BELARUS. Re my unID on 11930 under nonsensical Cuban jamming, April 3 at 0524, Rob Wagner, Australia, thinx it is indeed R. Belarus, as in his blog early April: ``11930 BELARUS. R. Belarus - Minsk. Noted at 0435 in Belarussian. NF`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1663, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BOLIVIA [and non]. 4717-, April 4 at 0059, very poor signal with music, but not much audio is making it elsewhere on 60m from South America, i.e. R. Yatun Ayllu Yura, Yura, in the clear except for occasional utes on hi side. Time permitting when monitoring on the porch for Chaski at 0100, I also sweep the 60m band, which is understandably less productive now as it`s close to sundown here. Not tonight or recently do I also hear the other off-frequency -7 station, on 4747, Perú`s Radio Huanta 2000; is it still active, or signing off earlier than nominal 0100 as in WRTH 2013? There is however a big het around 4825, presumably Peruvian(s) vs Brasilian(s) I have yet to unravel (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 6135, April 4 at 1250 in Chinese with hum, no doubt CNR1 jammer against new frequency from Taiwan in Chinese, as noted by Ron Howard and Martien Groot, at 10-15, thus also blowing away Shiokaze/Sea Breeze from Japan to Korea North at 1330-1430 on its last-heard frequency. So time for another QSY already; will they hasten? This mess also blox Yemen and Madagascar on 6135, bothers Laos on 6130 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1663, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also ROMANIA for more jamming

** CUBA. 5745, April 4 at 1246, still wall-of-noise jamming altho weak this late, as the DentroCuban Jamming Command hasn`t caught on that R. Martí is totally gone from this frequency. Well, at least they can jam the weekly VOA Radiograms (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [and non]. 9490, April 4 at 0105, R. República still has VG signal via replacement site in FRANCE, but now there is heavy OTH radar on the hi side, 9491-9514 or so, and can still barely hear that when tuned to 9490. Cyprus? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 13850, April 4 at 0526, seems Arabic with humbuzz, only fair signal but unfortunately amounts to the SSOB, i.e. R. Cairo, 0200-0700, 250 kW, 315 degrees from Abis to E North America and W Europe (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GERMANY [non]. 15275, April 4 at 1256 song in French, good signal until cut off at 1257*. It`s DW via RWANDA, except they are clueless in the studio that SW transmission must end 3 minutes before hourtop. To resume in Hausa at 1300 after switching to an even better azimuth for US (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDONESIA. 4750-, April 4 at 1245, poor signal with Indonesian talk, RRI Makassar, but with some hum, which at first I thought would be from the other carrier detectable with BFO, presumably Bangladesh rather than China or China; but then I notice the hum surges during pauses in RRI modulation, so that means it`s transmitted that way. You shouldn`t artificially boost modulation by turning up the Optimod when you don`t have a quiet carrier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENINIG DIGEST)

** JAPAN [non]. 17540, April 3 at 2147 check, NHK in Portuguese, very good signal via WHRI at 2130-2200, replacing French Guiana on 11960, after first using 11880, that was usurped by Cuba in early B-12. Let`s hope RHC doesn`t decide to use 17540 too. Yet now we have to strain to hear R. Japan in English, which they could have put on WHRI too. Harold Sellers also reports 17540 as excellent in British Columbia, tho it must be aimed at Brasil.

11970, April 4 at 0527 check, NHK playing Japanese rap(?), to fill out the 0500 English broadcast via FRANCE. At least the signal level now is almost on a par with neighbor Turkey on 11980 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1663, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1650, April 4 at 0542 UT check, is KYHN Sallisaw/Fort Smith AR, finally programming? NO, still with program preview reel over and over and over including self-aggrandizement as a 10,000-watt station eclipsing puny 1,000-watters, even tho it must also be 1 kW after dark. Closing in on two months of this nonsense (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, April 4 at 0058, R. Chaski carrier still detectable in the noise; 0101 I find there is new noise on the USB, so I have to monitor instead on the offset LSB to hear the carrier cutoff which is at 0102:28.5, four seconds later than measured last night (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ROMANIA [and non]. 11870-11875-11880, April 4 at 0528, DRM noise is most obvious by the hash it puts upon 11870 WEWN, i.e. RRI again this summer in English at 0530-0600, 300 kW [really full power?], 307 degrees from Tiganeshti to W Europe, but same azimuth as to N America. Same thing went on last A-season and nobody cared but me --- theoretically, altho I certainly do not really *want* to listen to WEWN in Spanish to S America, so I will be criticized by Andy Sennitt for complaining about ``collisions`` when the target areas differ and I am in neither.

Well, SW is a worldwide medium, as one might know by now, and signals cannot be restricted to one CIRAF or another. When there are plenty of free channels, as is increasingly the case thanks to all the shutdowns, there is NO reason not to avoid QRM completely; all it takes is more astute frequency management, with knowledge of real spectrum occupancy. This is especially imperative in the case of DRM broadcasters which occupy at least 3 channels at once, and often more, depending on the strength; yet another example of why DRM should be banished to the fixed utility bands.

15435, April 4 at 1302, hets and jamming noises. I can only conclude that the ChiCom are now jamming Romania too, since the only thing scheduled here at 1300-1330 is RRI in Chinese! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also TAIWAN for more jamming

** SPAIN. 21540, April 4 at 1309, REE is back here underneath Kuwait, after a foray to clear 21515! Why? I did hear them on 21515, March 31 and April 1, but not on April 2 or 3, and now on April 4 nothing on 21515 either; at first not sure of 21540 until Spanish faded up vs the Arabic. Kuwait signal poor; Spain very poor on 21540 and on clear 21610 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TAIWAN [and non]. 15265, April 4 at 1257 clear open carrier, 1259 Chinese announcement undermodulated and timesignal, soon hit by het and CCI in Chinese as CNR1 jammer attacks RTI, 250 kW, 225 degrees from Tanshui at 13-14, per Aoki. Similar mess to what was piled up on 15250 before 1300, but that was jamming VOA Chinese via Tinang. Nothing at all, of course about 15265 in HFCC, where the ChiCom ban anything from Taiwan and also modestly omit their own jammers, which extensive network would be the envy of most other nations for true broadcasting (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1663 monitoring: first airing confirmed Thursday April 4 at 2100.6 on WTWW-1 9479, usual excellent signal. Next: UT Friday 0330v on WWRB 3195 (and maybe, we hope, less noisy 5050); UT Saturday 0130v on Area 51 via WBCQ 5110v-CUSB; Saturday 0630 & 1430 on Hamburger Lokalradio 7265-CUSB; Saturday 1500 on WRMI 9955; Saturday 1730 on WRN via SiriusXM 120; Saturday 2330 on WTWW-2 9930; UT Sunday 0400 on WTWW-1 5830; Sunday 2315v on WTWW-2 9930; Tuesday 1100 on WRMI 9955; Wednesday 0630 & 1430 on HLR 7265-USB.
Full schedule including many webcasts:
http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 860, April 4 at 1222 UT, traffic report mentioning ``the 1604`` which immediately leads to the grand loop around San Antonio, also a ``farm-to-market`` route, which again nails it to Texas, where such are the fourth-level road network below interstate, US, and state highways, so no need to hear the ``KONO 101.1`` ID which followed along with ``gun-accurate traffic`` (is that what she said???), and San Antonio ads, totally dominating KKOW Pittsburg-without-the-h KS, briefly at sunrise skip (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 870, April 4 at 0558 UT, with WWL nulled, again hearing Vietnamese song past hourtop, 0602 Vietnamese announcement. No KFJZ calls detected, but did say ``Tieng noi voi`` or somesuch. This daytimer is still cheating overnight, so if you hear Vietnamese in the nightmiddle vs WWL, it`s not Saigon but Fort Worth TX (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1663, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 880, April 4 at 1223 UT with KRVN NE nulled, KLRG Sheridan AR is quite good with `America`s Morning News` interview about Atlanta school cheaters, guest referencing his
http://www.fairtest.org site. Signal equal to KRVN until KLRG sudden fadeout 1227.

Following my previous log, Fritze Prentice confirms: ``There has been a format change of programming on KLRG 880/K233BF 94.5 in metro Little Rock. KLRG (880) Sheridan AR and FM translator K233BF (Greenbrier/NLR AR) have dumped much of the fringe brokered programming for Black Gospel music, and the right wing "America's Morning News" (AMN previously heard on KKSP 93.3 before that station's flip to sports). Seems being the 3rd talk radio station in the market has had an effect and KLRG was known for its bizarre programming the past few years.
One thing is certain, Alex Jones is no longer part of the KLRG lineup.

April 3``
I wonder if there is still any connexion or overlap with WTAN Network programming from Clearwater FL, this big tail having been wagged by that little 1340 graveyard dog (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 940, April 4 at 1229 UT, KIXZ is ``The new 9-40``, and now streaming so can be heard everywhere!
http://voiceofamarillo.com But now at sunrise skip, it`s VG direct and dominant on 940 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1320, April 4 at 1237, TSN news looping SW/NE, plus fast SAH no doubt from off-frequency KCLI Clinton OK, but skipping over it; plus SS QRM probably XECPN Piedras Negras, Coahuila beyond it. This has to be the other Texan 1320, KVMC Colorado City, 1 kW daytimer which NRC AM Log confirms is on the Texas State Network; it`s on I-20 between two other aqueous towns Sweetwater and Big Spring. This Colorado refers to the *other* River which goes on to Austin, what`s left of it after all those LCRA dams (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1430, April 4 at 1240 UT, ``All-new KZQZ, 50,000 watts``, then ``House of the Rising Sun``. So its CP up from mere 5 kW must be on now, the 50K applying to daytime, still 5 kW at night, and U4. St Louis MO COL, but address across in Belleville IL (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1550, April 4 at 0547 UT, expecting the usual dominating TIS Branson-promotion station KLFJ in Springfield MO, 28 watts at night, but instead Cape Girardeau ads, and ID as ``Cape 15-50 and 100.3 FM``. So that`s one station beyond, KAPE, 48 watts at night! Yeah, sure; day power: 5000 (and there is a third 1550 Missourian in the other corner, St Joseph) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific carrier search around sunrise here at 1209-1213 UT April 4: detected on 594, 702, 774, 828, 1008, 1098, 1116. Can`t be positive all these are real, as 594 seemed to peak N/S, and 1098 was unlikely Marshall Islands in past years. But how will signals at 9-kHz intervals be audible on my DX-398 otherwise? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn Hauser logs April 3, 2013

** AUSTRALIA [and non]. 15400, April 3 at 1352, HCJB strong in S Asian language, presumed Hindi as scheduled, ex-15340, but continues to clash with Iran which was already using 15400 in A-seasons, making a SAH. Didn`t HCJB know this? Having used the same frequency successfully at a totally different daypart does not mean it will work now. Smax of amateurish frequency management, and no longer participating in HFCC while Iran does. This is bound to be a much bigger problem in S Asia targets, during Iran`s sesquihour in Urdu. At least IRIB listeners have the alternative of clear // 15300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BANGLADESH. 15505, April 3 at 1357, BB carrier is on with hi-pitched tone, no hum; 1358 add crackling; 1358.5 IS, not much hum but now marred by the crackle; timesignal 8 seconds fast and 1400 Urdu opening theme (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. Firedrake April 3, before 1300:
12320, fair at 1255 with flutter
13530, poor at 1255
14370, very poor at 1259; seldom this close to 20m but never <14350
15560, very poor to 1300* with het

Before 1400:
15870, good at 1348; none in the 14s, 16s, 17s despite VG CRI Kashgar
15610, fair at 1351 colliding with WEWN; also buzz jamming
15565, fair at 1352
13920, very good at 1346
13530, poor at 1347
13130, very poor at 1347
12320, JBA at 1348
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) More jamming: see U S A [non]

** CHINA [and non]. 13575, April 3 at 1257, nice non-FD Chinese music // much weaker 13600. HFCC shows CRI Russian service via Urumqi, Xi`an respectively, continuing another hour on 13600 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) see also EAST TURKISTAN

** COSTA RICA. 5995, April 3 at 0059 pop music, poor with ACI from CRI/CUBA 5990, 0100 speaking Castilian: I bet it`s REE reactivated here via CR; yes, a few sex behind // 9535 direct, scheduled 00-04 on 110 degree beam and remains poorly audible here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [and non]. 6120, April 3 at 0058, RHC Spanish is still here instead of 6100 as in publicized schedule; did Arnie change his mind or did RadioCuba forget to QSY? So it still abuts 6115 WYFR, also later at 0300-0400 during retimed RTI English relay.

What does the online schedule at
http://www.radiohc.cu/index.php/de-interes/frecuencias.html
show now? If it ever loads --- is Cuba still depending on slow satellite service for Internet despite the cable to Venezuela? No, I get a 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable at 1530 UT, still at 1730. Finally appears at 1800: and still not updated with 6100, nor 17720 instead of 15340 for Europe, which we have already confirmed.

5990, April 3 at 0103, CRI relay is on way late, still going with `Beyond Beijing` in English after scheduled Spanish until 0100*.

6165, April 3 at 0530, RHC English missing, and consequently also missing from leapfrogs 6205 & 6270; but nothing audible instead on 6165, if CHAD should be there; however, cleared 6160 for the bi-coastal CBC heterodyne war against itself (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [non]. 11930, April 3 at 1316 WON jamming but I think R. Martí somewhere underneath, while on 13820, RM is VG atop the jamming, talking about García Lorca, more innocuous apolitical programming.

The cutbax at IBB Greenville include reducing RM to two frequencies at a time instead of three, which means the DentroCuban Jamming Command can pile even more noise on the remaining frequencies; but I don`t think they are smart enough to do that, as they keep jamming many frequencies against nothing, or against such terrible targets as Brother Scare on WRMI. Ivo Ivanov has compiled the curtailed RM schedule which I rearrange into the two transmitter sequences:

00-12 6030,
12-14 7405,
14-24 11930

00-04 7365,
04-07 7405,
07-10 5980,
10-13 9805,
13-20 13820,
20-24 9565
All except for 03-07 UT break on UT Mondays; or should be -09.

As for antenna azimuths, the first set are all 205 except 11930 at 183 degrees; the second set are all 183 or 174.

However, it may not be that straightforward. Kai Ludwig explains: ``Still up to four transmitters could be required for this operation, unless at least one switches frequencies momentarily, which, I think, can be done only with the single Telefunken and the single Brown Boveri prototypes (unless secretly some gear from closed sites has in the meantime been taken from storage and installed at the Greenville plant).

What now arises is the question about the contents of Radio Martí. Does this remaining program stream from Miami still cover Venezuelan topics, too, or has USIB given up targeting Venezuela with shortwave radio? So far this was, if I recall correct, a joint effort of VOA and OCB. Got it simply lost in all the panic in which the latest cuts have apparently been decided? Kai`` (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also UNIDENTIFIED: 11930

** CUBA [non]. 9490, April 3 at 0057, R. República via RMI via FRANCE is back, good signal over jamming, after transmitter failure at Issoudun last night (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EAST TURKISTAN. 17630, April 3 at 1410, CRI with western-accented guy rather critical of government`s lack of transparency in budgets. At first I assumed he meant the US government, but no, he`s talking about China`s, with two Chinese-accented women. On and on, finally break at 1429 as ``Roundtable on China Drive from Easy FM``. Apparently the guest whose name I never caught is considered an expert in economix. Hope this does not lead to any more ``suicides``. This is the Urumqi relay of CRI replacing Mali, still very good signal way over here, as were the two French frequencies before 1400, 17560 and 17650 via Kashgar (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** FRANCE [non]. 11605, April 3 at 0522, Parisian French fluttery but sufficient signal, i.e. RFI, 0500-0700, 100 kW, 340 degrees via SOUTH AFRICA and USward; also a het from somewhere (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GUAM. 15445, April 3 at 1306, fair not in Burmese, but several mentions of AWR pronounced in English, and address as P O Box 977, Yangon, Myanmar,
www.awrmyanmar.org --- HFCC shows it`s Kachin, with KSDA on 15445 during this semihour only (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** JAPAN [non]. 11970, April 3 at 0519, NHKWRJ in English via FRANCE is poor but at least it`s audible tonite, no comparison to TURKEY 11980; 0524 usual concluding music filler. How about the South African relay for 1800 English on 9590 or 11885? Neither audible here, nor expected as too low for our summer, while 15720 via Madagascar was usually sufficient in our winter (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA SOUTH. 15575, April 3 at 1300, KBSWR opening in English, good with flutter, 1301 news about the North banning workers from the South and whether to let those already there go home; you never know whether this only English for North America aimed at South America will make it, but today is a good day; and even still in at 1351 during traditional music, and after 1400 in Korean (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1120, April 3 at 1222 UT, praise music in Spanish, weak with slow SAH against KMOX almost null, so KEOR, R. Victoria is on as early as this today (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 31, April 3 at 1508 UT, KXOK-LD, Enid with the two Spanish subchannels: usually it`s 31-3 AZTECA which is black and silent, but now Azteca America is back and 31-2 M - FOX, Mundo Fox is black and silent, but always with their PSIP IDs still running (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU [and non]. 5980, April 3 at 0059, R. Chaski carrier is again audible vs pulse jamming and other band noise, until cut off at 0102:24.5*, i.e. 11 sex later than two nights ago (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN [non]. 11650, April 3 at 0520, good signal from R. Dabanga as soon IDed in passing, non-Arabic language. This is now the VATICAN relay frequency of PNW at 0400-0557, 250 kW, 145 degrees from SMG, close to backward here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TAIWAN [non]. 6115, April 3 at 0350 check, RTI confirmed with retimed to 0300 English relay via WYFR; while the only other one remains at 2200 on 15440; 6115 has ACI and het from RHC 6120 which was supposedly switching to 6100 for A-13 but yet to do so (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** THAILAND. 9390, April 3 at 1249, R. Thailand, HSK9, fair and fluttery with news in English about Syria; new frequency not only for English at 1230-1300 to Australasia but also at 1900-2000 & 2030-2045 to Europe. (I`ve always wondered what the rationale is for one hour, and then another 15 minutes later to same target) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 17770, April 3 at 1438, ME pop music, declining from poor signal to very poor at 1445 in unID language talk, gone at 1503. HFCC shows Arabic hour from VOT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U K. 9440, April 3 at 0528, B-B-C- chimes, 0531 in Hausa with news axuality clips in English, i.e. at 0529-0600 from Woofferton (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. 5890 & 9885 & 12000, April 3 at 0056, nothing but wall-of-noise jamming from CUBA audible, as VOA has voluntarily self-destructed its Spanish service on SW, which would have been on air until 0100 UT Tue-Sat. Also gone in the mornings.

9490, April 3 at 1250 good signal in Korean; it`s VOA via TINIAN, while // 15775 is via Tinang, PHILIPPINES.

17530, April 3 at 1356, VG signal with HOA music; 1358 announcement, 1359 outro as from Voice of America, Washington, and carrier off. HFCC shows it`s via SMG, VATICAN; and to be followed at 14-15 by VOA English Botswana, but nothing else immediately audible; if it`s there, must be much weaker or starting late.

17740, April 3 at 1402, hi-pitched noise jamming with something in Chinese; also slow low pulsing. Then I hear exactly the same combination of jamming sounds, but worse, on 17540.

Different at 1430: 17540 has something weak without jamming, and 17740 has no noise but still Chinese, CNR1? HFCC resolves this with both carrying VOA Tibetan during this hour, 17740 via Udorn, THAILAND, and 17540 via Lampertheim, GERMANY.

BTW, are the ChiCom still jamming English broadcasts from BBC, VOA, R. Australia, Taiwan as alleged last month? I never hear any such and no reports of it lately (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 770, April 3 at 1234 UT, ``KKOB sports``, fair but steady signal; must already be LSR there for ND 50 kW? Yes, FCC official Albuquerque sunrise time for April is 1230 UT, altho today it`s really 1250; calculated by closest quarter-hour at mid-month which will then be near 1230. Our sunrise today was 1214.

BTW, the other New York-blocker further west on 660, KTNN sometimes coincides with KKOB SR times, but in April-May-June it`s a quarter-hour later at 1245, 1215 and 1200 UT respectively (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 860, April 3 at 1232 UT, polka piece, i.e. the regular morning spot on KKOW Pittsburgh KS (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 930, April 3 at 1230 UT, ``WTAD sports`` so it`s Quincy IL again with WKY nulled (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9479, April 3 at 1251, slightly irregular beeps (carrier on and off) amounting to about 24 per minute. Very strange, a few minutes before WTWW comes up on exactly the same off-frequency. If still there, could not detect them at 1309 beneath PPP, SFAW on WTWW (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11930, April 3 at 0524, totally wasteful Cuban pulse jamming as usual against a R. Martí frequency never in use at night, but now there is also some broadcaster talking with poor signal under the jamming. Only thing in HFCC is BELARUS:

11930 0500 0800 29,30 MNS 250 72 0 218 1234567 310313 271013 D 11930 BelRus BLR BTC SDT 6539 PK100 --- but is that really on the air? BTC is known for its phony wooden registrations. Not in Aoki. Not in EiBi, and nothing else either to account for this, tho he says the A-13 file was 85% complete as of 1 April.

BTW, for some reason, Aoki direct text linx are not put up until further into a new season, so get the current A-13 file from
http://www1.s2.starcat.ne.jp/ and unzip it.

Whoever this may be on 11930, they are clueless that it`s risky to pick any frequency used by R. Martí at any time in the past, present or future. Or that of any other Cuban jamming victim (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn Hauser logs April 2, 2013

** AUSTRALIA. 15400, April 2 at 1309, HCJB is inbooming in S Asian language, altho something underneath, see IRAN! HFCC A-13 still has nothing but ``OLD-A12`` info for KNX, so HCA has neglected to register current usage, but 15400 has obviously replaced 15340, now left to RHC, matching its nominal sign-on time of 1300 with HCJB sign-off.

Peter Hansen sent the true HCJB Global Australia A-13 schedule on to the DXLD yg, confirming it`s no accident they are now on 15400. Full sked in an ever-increasing variety of languages:
0725-0830 15490 Pacific
0955-1115 15400 E Asia
1125-1300 15340 SE Asia [note: two transmitters active with next one]
1225-1530 15400 S Asia
2225-2330 15525 E Asia
2345-0115 15400 SE Asia
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BANGLADESH. 15505, April 2 at 1400 I was on 11530 RUSSIA [non] too long to catch whether BB got a timesignal aired today, but a few sex later the Urdu theme is already going, ID with required hum (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. Firedrake April 2, before 1400:
11500, good at 1351; none in the 10s
11970, very good at 1348 [see 15970 remark]
12670, very poor at 1347 [see 15970 remark]
none in the 13s or 14s at 1344-1347
15570, very poor at 1342, het on lo side
15610, CCI to WEWN! at 1340, lo side het surely V of Tibet, Tajikistan
15970, poor at 1337 [must be wildly different site/azimuth than next:]
16360, very good at 1337
17080, fair at 1338
17250, fair at 1338
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6150, April 2 at 1305, RHC Spanish is still on late, and fortunately I don`t have to listen long to their slanted `news` to hear it cut off at 1306:06* instead of 1300. This means that whatever frequency was next from same transmitter had to cut on late. Close enough for Commie-government work.

11845, April 2 at 1348, JBA pulse jamming, as the DentroCuban Jamming Command just won`t give up on this frequency like R. Martí has (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [non]. Jeff White of RMI replies to my Radio República observations in last log report: ``Glenn: Yes, Saturday night was the last transmission from Montsinéry, and Sunday was the first from Issoudun. Monday night there was a transmitter failure after the first 15 minutes. Jeff`` Add one for UT days at 0000-0200 on 9490 (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EAST TURKISTAN [and non]. 17560, April 2 at 1322, CRI French with a slight Chinese accent is loud & clear, and synchronized with // 17650 but the latter with some CCI. Both are scheduled on the ubiquitous 308-degree antennas from Kashgar to Europe, also close to USward. The victim on 17650 would be something from MBR Nauen, not long for this frequency?

BTW, tnx to Mark Schiefelbein in Beijing for forwarding news about a `China Drive` announcer:

CHINA RADIO INTERNATIONAL HOST YAN YINAN DEAD IN APPARENT SUICIDE
By Anthony Tao April 2, 2013 5:27 pm Comment : 0
http://beijingcream.com/2013/04/china-radio-international-host-yan-yinan-dead-in-apparent-suicide/
With more stories about this in the dxldyg
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDONESIA. 9526-, April 2 at 1352, another frustrating Tuesday as VOI is finally clear of QRM, registering S9+15 on FRG-7 meter, but just barely modulated for another `Exotic Indonesia` bust with RRI Banjarmasin (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** IRAN. 15300, April 2 at 1310, Qur`an in Arabic of course, fair signal, VIRI news theme, ``Radio Teheran``, not Arabic, but scheduled Urdu, per HFCC at 1300-1430, 500 kW, 109 degrees from Kamalabad.

Also hearing the same on 15400 but buried by HCJB Australia`s new frequency, q.v.; that one is 500 kW, 198 degrees from Sirjan.

13880, April 2 at 1345, surprised to find a broadcaster here, I believe the farthest upward out of band yet for anyone on 13 MHz; poor signal, is it Arabic, maybe Cairo? No, mentions of Afghanistan, and HFCC has it: 0830-1430, VIRI in Dari, 250 kW, 84 degrees from Ahwaz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** JAPAN [non]. 15735, April 2 at 1314, zero signal from NHK or anything, so apparently this English relay via Uzbekistan has been canceled, in keeping with one version of conflicting R. Japan schedule info, and with it the entire 1300 English broadcast, despite appearing as if real in A-13 HFCC.

11705, April 2 at 1350, rock music in English, Asian language mentions Japan at 1354. It`s NHK in Indonesian at 1315-1400, fair here tho due west from PALAU, same as for following English at 1400-1430 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA SOUTH. 15575, April 2 at 1308, KBSWR news in English, poor with flutter, and in less than a semihour at 1336 has faded to virtually nothing. This is the so-called North American service, only hour in English for us even tho aimed toward deep South America, a totally inadequate substitute, while plenty of airtime is still available on N American relay sites which still exist (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KUWAIT. 15090, April 2 at 1343, very poor AM broadcast here. In A-13 HFCC, IBB has brazenly registered inside this off-route aeronautical band as Kuwait, 250 kW, 70 degrees alternating Dari and Pashto all the way from 0730 to 1630. EiBi shows this as R. Liberty until 1430, then R. Ashna until 1630, all in Dari/Pashto to Iran, but those are Afghan languages, so must really be R. Free Afghanistan (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 1050, April 2 at 1223 UT, hardly any signal from XEG, but instead ``La Radio de Sud-California`` with FM 99.1, orchestral music turning into romantic song. IRCA has no FM // but this info:
1050 XEBCS La Paz, 10000/-1, Radio Cultural Surcaliforniana, Gobierno del Estado, 1300-0500, from Universidad Autónoma de BCS. Cantú agrees on the slogan version I copied, as 10 kW daytime only; linx to this website
http://www.bcs.gob.mx/ but I get ``no site configured``. WRTH thinx it`s 10/1 kW, i.e. fulltime. DST doesn`t start in BCS until April 7, but already on an hour earlier than WRTH and IRCA think.

Cantú has no FM connexion either for XEBCS, but lists a different La Paz station on 99.1: ``XHBCP 99.1 FM La Radio Contigo`` whose only URL is a facebook page
https://www.facebook.com/99.1fm but it doesn`t work either. Were these stations related, or XEBCS took it over? La Paz seems so exotically remote, but only if you`re driving there, which I have never accomplished (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1120, KEOR Catoosa/Sperry/Tulsa, R. Victoria, continues to be heard in full daytime groundwave on the caradio with música de alabanza, but apparently still not running a full daytimer schedule: April 2 at 1220 UT check, nothing in the null of KMOX. Official FCC KEOR sunrise in April is 1145 UT, sunset 0100 UT. If its CP for Critical Hours is also in effect, could be running 7 kW well past sunset too (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ROMANIA. 11745 & 13820, RRI English an hour earlier at 2030 is now here, as found April 1 at 2054; precious little else in English from Europe anywhere on the bands at this hour [date is correct, omitted from previous report].

15435, April 2 at 1315, something in Chinese with multiple hets. Only scheduled is RRI Tiganeshti at 1300-1330; could it too now be jammed, or is this QRM from a local device? Please check elsewhere (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** RUSSIA [non]. 11530, April 2 at 1351, S Asian language? with humwhine, 1359 fragment of VOR IS, OC pause with hum continuing, timesignal and 1400 `Chariots of Fire` theme. HFCC shows 500 kW, 155 degrees from Dushanbe, TAJIKISTAN. EiBi lists this hour as a pause between English at 10-13 & 13-15, so what was it, Hindi or Urdu? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN [non]. 15400, April 2 at 0526, lofi audio in African or Arabish language, fair signal, sounds like R. Tamazuj --- which is exactly right as it and imminent R. Dabanga are now scheduled here at 0400-0557, 250 kW, 335 degrees from MADAGASCAR, also USward (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9885, 13750 & 15590, April 2 at 1201, VOA Spanish is confirmed kaput, not even a pulse jammer to be heard on any of these during previous morning hour including `Buenos Días América` M-F news at 1230, which maybe survives online and via affiliates.

SS SWLs will have to make do with Radio Martí despite its political agenda, which is still going on a reduced SW schedule, but including 9805 over jamming at this hour. Thus, a few sequesterbux are saved at Greenville, where more and more transmitters sit idle. With reverse logic, evil management may use this as excuse to close it completely sooner rather than later (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 640, April 2 at 1236 UT with KWPN OK nulled, a gospel huxter in English with extended prayer really intended to influence listeners rather than God; would expect to get KFI just after sunrise here, long before sunrise there, but could it possibly be doing this at 5:36 am PDT? No! Bill Handel show on schedule from 5 am weekdays. Instead, must be WCRV Collierville TN (Memphis) now on 50 kW day power itself (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 690, April 2 at 0541 UT, KGGF Coffeyville KS once again in open carrier/dead air, vs IBOC noise from 700 WLW. Misprogrammed automation and no one at the station has noticed? Are they still billing for commercials overnight which did not really air? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 700, April 2 at 1240 UT, weak but clear signal from N/S in Spanish, with ad for oil-changer, mentioning phone 469-725-0943 several times. 469 means one of the Dallas overlays, so must be KHSE Wylie TX, which as of the NRC AM Log 2012-2013 was 24 hours Asian. Not any more, or not at all? I`m sure I heard this in `Asian` not long ago in the daytime as barely makes it here on groundwave in low-noise areas. Wikipedia still has it as ``FunAsia 700`` and ultimately linked to Facebook, or
http://www.funasia.net/index.php which seems to be current, showing 104.9 FM and 1110 AM, i.e. KVTT. If that`s the inhabitant on 50 kW 1110 now, they might as well do something else with sesqui-kW 700; inconsequential that 700 reaches OK better than 1110 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 870, April 2 at 0549 UT, WWL is as usual sharply nullable, and this time there is an occupant --- in Vietnamese! IIRC, 870 was once a major frequency in Saigon, but unlikely now. Instead, it has to be KFJZ Fort Worth TX, which flipped from Spanish to Vietnamese a few months ago. See my previous research & analysis in DXLD 12-50:
http://www.w4uvh.net/dxld1250.txt

But it`s a 1 kW DAYTIMER! And this is after midnite. Listened a few more minutes and no doubt that the talk is in Vietnamese, making 4 Hz SAH with WWL. Some are willing to give daytimers-at-night a pass, blaming on automation failure to turn off the transmitter, especially if programming continues 24h online or onFM, but not me; HUMANS are still responsible for the damned automation! Does this one have an FM // now? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 880, April 2 at 1230 UT, Arkansas weather and traffic, so KLRG is now doing something local, but fade out before I can hear whether this was just a break amid `Imus in the Morning` as allegedly scheduled (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 930, April 2 at 0558 UT, with WKY OKC nulled, promo for `Coast-to-Coast` editorial contributions; 0559 Fox News Radio promo on ``Newsradio 930, WTAD Quincy``, IL, and into same. WTAD is indeed on the C2C station list. Neither Google nor Yahoo search can find a single hit on WTAD in the DXLD archive at site:www.w4uvh.net, so it must also be a new log for me. NRC Pattern Book 2005 shows mostly to the north at night, minor lobes E/W and even less to S, and should be a null toward WKY; however WTAD is 5/1 kW U2 = ND in daytime; hmmm (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1220, April 2 at 1242 UT, unknown enthusiastic S Asian language from N/S vs LAH, also with some odd beeping which is probably from musical modulation artifacts. From previous experience I know what I am getting: Asian is KZEE, South Asian Radio in `Weatherford` TX, while the off-frequency is KMVL Madisonville TX beyond it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1470, April 2 at 1249 UT, mentions high-heels race for the Children`s Miracle Network, then into TX politix, so I know it must be Abilene, currently called KYYW. Further confirmed by Google hit on:
http://www.racedayeventservices.com/apps/calendar/showEvent?calID=5622634&eventID=210159266&next=%2FshowAgenda%3FcalID%3D5622634%26pageNum%3D1
A great way to break your ankle! Which I know from experience is no fun, tho accomplished in another way. O, they are covered: ``Release, Waiver of Liability and Indemnity must be signed``(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VATICAN. 5980, April 2 at 0533, Vatican Radio with prolonged bells instead of prompt Latin mass, poor new frequency as tipped by EiBi, ex-6075 an hour later. HFCC shows 100 kW, 330 degrees at 0530-0615 to CIRAF 28SW = Italy + Corsica. After last night`s early start as often happens, I was first checking 9645 where Bandeirantes was weak but clear a few minutes before 0530. By 0529 VR had blasted on 9645 with bells but instead of opening at 0530, they kept playing over and over and over until 0542 finally ``L.I.C.``, ID and other music, multi-lingual opening to Latin mass which finally got underway at 0544. Since it`s live, VR is at the mercy of the participants/celebrants to watch the clock. Weaker // 7250 was also on by 0533 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VATICAN [non]. 15470, April 2 at 1315, ``Phat-thanh Vatican`` Vietnamese ID in passing, fair with flutter, i.e. VR now relayed via TINIAN at 1315-1400. I see in HFCC this is only one of many VR relays via IBB on 15470, also scheduled in Asian languages at 2310-2400 Tinian, 0015-0200 via Tinang, 1400-1600 Tinian. (But 15470 at 1228-1315 UT Saturdays only in Chinese, is via RVA`s Philippine site PUG).

Thus continues a far too-cozy relationship between the RCC and the supposedly secular US government, which also relays Vatican via Greenville to Latin America and broadcasts nothing but RCC religion to Cuba on R. Martí. AFAIK, VR is the only `foreign` broadcaster IBB relays, other than Philippines & Thailand because of IBB`s own relay bases allowed in those countries (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. TP carrier search just before 1216 UT sunrise April 2; this time at 1210 I started 9-kHz-with-DX-398-BFO steps at high end of MW band, so probably missed some which faded out sooner at the low end: 1332, 1314, 1125, 1098, 1035, 891, 882, 846, 828, and by 1216 UT, 774, but none lower. All of them seemed to peak from slightly S of due west, i.e. Pacific rather than E Asian which come from the NW (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5925, April 2 at 1257, very poor signal with song, aside somewhat stronger Rossii 5930 Pet/Kam which stopped at 1300 but its carrier until 1302.5*. 5925 really too weak but EiBi & Aoki show it`s either CNR5 from Beijing in Chinese, or VOV2 in Vietnamese, both active before & after 1300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9591 approx., April 2 at 0528-0532+, strange irregular tones like Kim employs for Radiograms, QRMing weak CRI Arabic via Albania 9590 which is // 9515 again this A-season (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 17932-SSB, approx., April 2 at 1327, very heavy accent in English saying ``on ground, Toronto``, also ``502`` maybe part of aircraft/flight number which had just landed. Good signal but never came back next few minutes, for me to pin down the exact frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn Hauser logs April 1-2, 2013

** ALBANIA. 9850, UT Tuesday April 2 at 0125, our first chance to check A-13 English: song is playing, good strength and no QRM (WHRI is on 9860 but not a bother), with usual muffled modulation from R. Tirana, as Shijak has turned on the transmitter early with a prélude of unknown provenance for the re-timed and re-frequencied English to North America at 0130-0200; 0128 starts the RT IS, as usual very distorted and over-modulated; 0130 theme with better audio, Klara signs on with A-13 schedule dated 31/3/13 to 26/10/13, for English: Europe Mon-Sat 2000-2030 on 7465; N America Tue-Sun (or Sat? couldn`t tell which she said) on 9850; 0131 program summary: news, press review, Albania in a Week, culture piece, sports. First news item about Easter celebration (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ARGENTINA. 13363.5-LSB, April 2 at 0058, LTA is on with poor signal in Spanish rebroadcast of something (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LI STENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 17720, April 1 at 2051, RHC confirmed on NF to ``Europe``, in Arabic from 2030; now it`s the OSOB with BRB TDP MSY GUF DRM gone from 17870-17880. 17720 also applies to 1930 French, 2000 Portuguese, 21-23 Spanish, and then also heard at 2102 // 17705.

15168-15290 [+/- 60-62 kHz], April 2 at 0106, approx. fluxuating range of noise emanating from defective 15230 RHC transmitter, but the peaks are around 15258 and 15203 [+/- 27-28 kHz], while it`s clear closer in from 15213 to 15253 or so [+/- 13-17 kHz]. Meanwhile, the former host for such parasites, 11840, remains clean.

6120, April 2 at 0122, RHC Spanish is still here with usual rough modulation, not 6100, the new frequency shown at 23-04 on the A-13 schedule supposedly effective April 1 distributed by the correspondence department. Nothing on 6100 in the way, where we still hope it will go, away from RTI English via WYFR 6115 at new 0300-0400 time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [and non]. 11775, April 2 at 0111, some jamming audible aside Brasil 11780, but no R. Martí as part of the cutbacks despite planned A-13 schedule to resume this frequency.

9885, April 2 at 0114 the DentroCuban Jamming Command is still running here despite no VOA Spanish, but helping CNR1 to jam IBB Tibetan at 01-03 via Tajikistan, as I can also hear Chinese and something else mixing.

9565, April 2 at 0117, pulse jamming against another frequency R. Martí is never using at this hour.

6110, April 2 at 0123 seems to be some Cuban jamming here, but no possible target; maybe stray or spur from 6030 or something (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also VIETNAM [non]

** CUBA [non]. Hi Jeff, Saturday night I was still hearing the 9505 spur so concluded that was the final final broadcast from Montsinéry, right? Sunday night, the spur was gone but RR was well heard, so that was the first one via Issoudun, right?

However, Monday night, UT Tuesday at 0118, I was hearing nothing but jamming on 9490 (with spurs +/- 15 or so), yet plenty of good European signals on 31m from Greece, Serbia [non], Pridnestrovye, Spain, etc. So RR/Issoudun apparently not on the air at all, correct? What next? 73, (Glenn to Jeff White, via DXLD)

** EGYPT [and non?]. 9959-9977, April 2 at 0112 range of strong very rapid continuous pulsing. Could be some OTH radar, but surrounds the awfully-modulated 9965 R. Cairo, and also audible underneath it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** IRAN [and non]. 12080, April 2 at 0109, Qur`an, strong signal, but fluttery and distorted. It`s now the 13-hour Arabic service from IRIB at 1630-0530, 500 kW, 289 degrees from Zahedan.

This might be a bit of a problem for the other registered occupants of 12080, R. Australia, Brandon, 10 kW also on long hours, 2000-1200; and CNR Beijing site, 100 kW, 255 degrees at 0200-1000; while VOA squeezes in one semihour per week in Kinyarwanda just before Iran at 1600-1630 Saturdays without collision unless Iran`s carrier is on early (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KUWAIT. 15540, April 1 at 2052, R. Kuwait with disco and rap music, fair signal, and in fact the SSOB beyond Birmingham. Must have just missed the 2050 news headlines if they are still bothering with such a token. Kept with it to hear sign-off at 2059, to return in English at 0500; and again at 1800 on ``15540`` --- yes! They are finally announcing the correct frequency instead of 11990, but did he say 25 or 19 meter band? Will have to listen yet again. Followed by the quick martial band anthem, 2100, 3 + 1 timesignal, Arabic ID and fanfare, cut off the air as the news was barely starting (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1120, April 1 at 2010 UT, KEOR Catoosa/Tulsa/Sperry, R. Victoria, has good 7-kW-ish signal on caradio with continuous praise music in Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1560, April 1 at 2015, rather raunchy stand-up comedy routine about sex & marriage, surely OT for R. Disney, KEBC, Del City. Then mentions 24/7 Comedy, so it`s the same network as on CFRX 6070 six overnights per week. On to Imo. A little April fool joke?

It`s not on the station list at:
http://www.247comedy.com/pages/allstations.html
but neither is CFRB/CFRX unless there is a separate map which recognizes Canada as something other than the blank side of the border. And R. Disney no longer lists any affiliate in OK, having already disposed of KMUSkogee 1380 last year. Now there will be no more confusion with WQEW on 1560!

It`s a permanent format change as of a week or two ago per the Oklahoma forum at
http://radiodiscussions.com/smf/index.php?topic=232032.0
which I will quote in detail in DXLD. FCC shows no change in callsign from KEBC, but not always up to date (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. Enid`s ``The Rocket`` which had its 104.7 KEIF-LP FCC license rescinded last month and declared deleted as of July 2011, is back! Online, ``with an attitude``, via
http://www.radionomy.com/en/radio/the-rocket-on-line/share
or more directly:
http://listen.radionomy.com/the-rocket-on-line.m3u
Assuming this is the Enid station as there is no visible location information. I haven`t listened much beyond to confirm it`s funxioning, but no more silly FCC rules & regs to violate! I can`t wait until they resume on the air as a bonafide pirate (Glenn Hauser, OK, April 1, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU [non]. 5980, April 2 at 0055 I am finally unable to detect a carrier from R. Chaski, Urubamba vs the noise level and splash from 5990 Cuba. At 0100 without 5990, now there is a JBA carrier and some pulse jamming, but it`s the most JBA ever and a strain to detect. I know it is projected to go off at 0102:18.5, but couldn`t really hear it after 0102:05. Maybe a fluke as Bolivian signals on 6135v and 5952v were sufficiently good as usual. This was on the sheltered porch at 42 degrees F with cold rain starting up shortly, like all the other logs in this session (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN. 17595, April 1 at 2104, the 16m band comes a bit back to life with REE on here opening Portuguese repeat, some classical guitar, then a YL song --- no, it`s a jingle ID mentioning ``a emissão em português, da Rádio Exterior`` and without further ado more classical guitar with Joaquín Rodrigo`s ``Concierto de Aranjuez``, apparently played in full like it should be, still going past 2114. Strange to do that rather than say anything else like the news at the start of the broadcast --- unless there`s a huelga, must be some holiday filler; yes, in Spain they have Reyes Católicos.

11795, April 2 at 0111, REE IS with VG signal, i.e. prélude to the weekly UT Tuesday 0115 Sephardic service to S America, good news for a season not colliding with 11780 Brasil, whatever they may announce which I have not yet copied (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TAIWAN [non]. 11565, April 2 at 0112, very distorted pop music and breaking up, then Spanish mentioning Taiwan - of course, the RTI relay now here via WYFR, feed out of order? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9820, April 2 at 0116, good carrier off and on, no doubt VOA warming up for the 0130-0200 Tue-Sat Spe-cial Eng-lish. While on, it suffers a considerable het from the always-off-frequency Brazilian, Radio Nove de Julho; another poor frequency choice by IBB which could go anywhere, while R9J is stuck and no doubt incapable even of getting on-frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5110, April 1 at 0057 a carrier here, suspected WBCQ, but I failed to get back after 0100 in case it modulated. Not normally on the air UT Tuesdays, altho Area 51 had run a 12-hour R. Caroline anniversary marathon until 1000 Monday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VIETNAM [non]. 12005, April 2 at 0109 check, VOV via Woofferton UK to Florida is sufficiently good ending the news, but there is bleed from the Cuban jamming on 12000 against nothing, i.e. former VOA Spanish frequency which would have closed at 0100 anyway if it still existed at all, but I missed confirming its termination tonight, as implied by no Spanish at all on the A-13 VOA SW schedule provided by Kim Elliott (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn Hauer logs March 31-April 1, 2013

** ALBANIA. 9850, March 31 at 2310, poor signal with talk, presumed R. Tirana Albanian hour to NAm on new frequency, expected to improve as summer comes on. Main thing is: it`s in the clear, no ACI or CCI; WHRI is not on 9860 either. Now need to check 9850 for English at 0130-0200 Tue-Sun (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** AUSTRALIA. 15400, April 1 at 1459, Easter sermon in English somehow connecting eggs hatching, with J.C., continuing past 1500 hourtop, but now with SAH added. Somehow I don`t think this is the only thing in HFCC at 1430-1530, Bengali from Iran (unless it`s the SAH). Since the preacher had a bit of a Strine accent, suspect HCJB Australia, on wrong frequency which is supposedly scheduled in local mornings only, 2345-0300! While the evening frequency continues to be registered as 15340 at 1145-1530 --- including English most days during the final half-sesquihour! Come to think of it, I did not notice it on 15340 after RHC had closed circa 1500. So a mistake, or a change to avoid RHC? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BANGLADESH. 15505, April 1 at 1359 no signal; 1400 no signal; 1401 no signal; finally *1401:50 BB cuts on with humwhine, theme music, ID and news in Urdu service. Tardy yet again, but avoiding the embarrassment of broadcasting inaccurate timesignals. Somehow, I doubt that`s the reason as there is plenty else to be ashamed of (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. Firedrake April 1 before 1400:
13530, good with flutter; none in the 12s
14980, very good at 1356
15970, very good at 1356
15535, fair at 1357; het on hi side, no doubt V of Tibet/Tajikistan
16920, good at 1358
17300, fair at 1358
17450, fair at 1358; none in the 18s

After 1400:
15570, fair at 1413, het on lo side, no doubt V of Tibet/Tajkikistan
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 15340, March 31 at 2030, RHC is still here in Arabic, but from April 1 this and other `European` services are to change to 17720. That may bother Spain if it`s still on 17715 in an almost-empty band.

15170-15290, March 31 at 2313, buzz from defective 15230 RHC transmitter audible out to plus/minus 60 kHz, but worst closer in; fluxuates a lot (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [non]. Further chex for missing R. Martí transmissions, due to cutbacks, compared to the originally planned A-13 schedule as in my previous report:

At 2026: 9565: altho missing at 1740, it`s on at 2026 March 31 over jamming [scheduled 17-24]; 11930 is detectable under jamming; and 13820, only jamming audible but may be still on there.

At 2309: 11930 RM is VG; 9565 fair; 6030 inaudible, so shorter hours?

At 0141: nothing on 11775 and just as well with bigsig from Brasil on 11780; still no 11775 at 0252 [was sked 00-03] (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [non]. 9490, April 1 at 0054, R. República ID immediately upon tune-in, more or less equal to jamming level and no spur circa 9505, so now the site switch has been made from defunct Guiana French to Issoudun, FRANCE, at 00-02. There are however some pulses in the plus and minus 10-15 kHz range, probably spurs from the jammers rather than ISS (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 13850, April 1 at 0523, poor signal in Arabic; not much audible on 22m now but this, per HFCC, ERU at 02-07, 250 kW, 315 degrees from Abis USward including CIRAF 8 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GERMANY. 15390, April 1 at 1415, exotic language with good signal; 1430 different language, and since 1420 IS started, it`s QRMing weaker REE Sephardic service on 15385 Mondays only. At 1427 giving an address in Bihar with the numbers pronounced in English. EiBi has the A-13 scoop:

Gospel for Asia, via Nauen, which on Mondays at 1415 is in Santhali, spoken in India plus some in Bangladesh, and at 1430 in Dzonkha, the language of Bhutan; yet another at 1456 check, i.e. from 1445 Mondays in Sharchogpa / Sarchopa (Bhutan). HFCC shows 250 kW, 85 degrees from Nauen, total span 1330-1530 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GERMANY. 15180, April 1 at 1426, ``This is Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty, Praha --- beep`` loop over and over, so what`s next? More of the same at 1430 until finally just before 1500 a bit of S Asian music, ID of some sort, ``habari`` = news. HFCC shows what happened:

15180 is scheduled 1400-1600 in Turkmen, 250 kW, 75 degrees from Wertachtal. Suspect someone in Washington or Praha and/or Wertachtal was confused by the DST change yesterday in Europe, and/or abrupt cancellation of the first hour of this service. (15180 also sked 16-17 in Uzbek but from Lampertheim) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GREECE. 15650, April 1 at 1403, VOG with Greek music instead of on 15630, which they should keep avoiding during all the long hours WEWN is on 15610 along with its squishy second-order spurblob around 15628.
At 1458 on 15650, ``I Foni tis Hellados`` ID and IS.

On March 29, ERT-fan John Babbis predicted in A-13 that 15650 would be in use at 1400-1850 and 2300-0350. But 15630 at 0300-0800, 1200-1350, 1900-2400.

The WEWN SW schedule at
http://www.ewtn.com/radio/freq.htm
still hasn`t been updated for A-13 since expiring March 25 [sic], but HFCC shows 15610 WEWN at 13-24 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** IRAN [non]. 7585, April 1 at 0052, fair with SW Asian music. This season, EiBi has his schedules up without delay:
http://www.eibispace.de/dx/bc-a13.txt
http://eibispace.de/dx/freq-a13.txt
showing R. Farda, 0000-0130 via SRI LANKA on 7585. It`s axually on air all the way from 1700 until 0130, 250 kW, 310 degrees from Iranawila per HFCC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** JAPAN [non]. 11705, April 1 at 1407, NHKWRJ with sufficient signal in English, so this may be the best of the lot left for us as R. Japan continues to self-destruct little by little, altho aimed due west from PALAU! Seemed like there was some QRDRM noise, altho no DRM heard on 11700 or 11710 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH. 9435, April 1 at 1300, NK NA, 1303 opening English but first, triumphal choral music, surprise new frequency from VOK ex-9335, leaving that to RFA Burmese via Tinian, which continues in A-13 at 1230-1430; VOK // to NAm 11710 remains unchanged, but overshadowed at 1336 by fellow automatons at The Lord`s Ranch from 11715 KJES.

9435 is but one of several unexpected frequency changes by VOK, as Arnulf Piontek, Ivo Ivanov and Wolfgang Büschel have been scrambling to assemble by monitoring. Ivo summarizes the pattern this way:

``All new frequencies are plus / minus 100 kHz from the older frequencies, for example: 9325/9335/9345/11535/11545 +100 = 9425/9435/9445/11635/11645; and 9975/9990 -100 = 9875/9890. And one exception: 15100 moved + 5 kHz to 15105`` so that would seem to indicate they were not made upon consideration of lessening or avoiding any interference, but just to get them less out-of-band by the law-abiding Juche (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KUWAIT [and non]. 21540, April 1 at 1508, Qur`an from R. Quwait is VG except for OTH radar pulsing underneath, which spreads 21518-21543 or so. These 25-kHz-wide ones are traditionally pinned on a facility in CYPRUS. Too bad it`s the BBC which has self-destructed there instead: no more 21470 BBCWS in English, but just 13-15 in Somali via UAE, plus another hour on Saturdays (game day) via Ascension (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 660, April 1 at 0548 UT, Mexican music is dominant, certainly no WFAN! (see USA: 880), then singing ID for FM ``98.9``, which Cantú matches with the station heard several times before:
660 XEACB La Lupe + FM 98.9 Cd. Delicias, Chih. 3,000 1,000
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, April 1 at 0100, bad splatter from CRI/CUBA 5990 lasts a few sex past 0100; then I only have high local noise level to contend with, apparently not jamming. 5980 R. Chaski remains JBA with bits of modulation and helpfully strengthens a bit until cut off at 0102:13.5*, another five sex later than last nite. It so happens that at the very same second my streetlite decided to fire up. Henceforth, as long as dusks are clear, it should be later than the Chaski-cut, as sunsets here are latening by far more than 5 sex per day. You may gather that this has become a ritual I will follow as long as I can, before losing the Chaski signal completely (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PHILIPPINES [non]. 15330, April 1 at 1457* just as I tune in, a carrier cuts off, while Cuban jamming remains, tho there is NO Martí on here in A-seasons. HFCC shows it must have been R. Veritas Asia, 250 kW, 70 degrees from VATICAN in Urdu at 1430-1457.

Had I stayed tuned after 1500 but 10 kHz down, I would have heard the only other RVA via CVA relay: 15320 at 1500-1553, 250 kW, 130 degrees in Filipino (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** RUSSIA [non]. 9465, April 1 at 0053, song in Russian, good with flutter. HFCC has VOR here at 22-01 via KCH = PRIDNESTROVYE, and VOR`s own English schedule shows it at 22-24 to Latin America, which means it`s the best we can hear in North America. Not sure yet what language service the following hour may be, Spanish or Russian? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SERBIA [non]. 9685, UT Monday April 1 at 0047, VG signal in Serbian here, as expected the usual A-season frequency from IRS replacing 6190 in B-seasons; lacking any updated schedule yet, but it`s already off by 0058. Much better modulation and strength than VOR/PRIDNESTROVYE on 9665, always suffering by comparison.

But what about English from Serbia? Altho not updated March 31, the schedule at
http://voiceofserbia.org/program-schedule
has now been updated as of April 1, showing English:
0030-0100 except Sun & Mon 9685, 250 kW
[and no English shown at 0100 one or two days a week as before]
1300-1330 on 9635, 10 kW [i.e. daily, SERBIA non non]
1830-1900 on 6100, 250 kW
2100-2130 on 6100, 250 kW

The complex sked on 9685 in Serbian for C&E N America, W Europe:
0000-0030 except Sunday
0000-0100 special Sunday only
0030-0100 special Monday only
0100-0130 special Tuesday-Saturday
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN. 9535, UT Monday April 1 at 0046, REE with interview about Caracol winning some journalism award in Spain, later with voice of Antonio Buitrago, so `Amigos de la Onda Corta` second and final play is confirmed as 0005+ UT Mondays, not 2305 Sundays as per self-contradictory REE program grids.

9535 is by far the best here, also audible on // 15160 and 9620, the latter with QRDRM from REE COSTA RICA centred on 9630 but the noise spreading plus/minus 30 kHz, which is presumably carrying the same program. Spaniards vs Spaniards! I had checked the same three frequencies at 2311 Sunday, hearing instead an interview about feminism.

Circa 0055 after ADLOC, announcement about a `new` toll-free number for feedback from REE listeners in certain countries, including USA and UK, 800-34-100-100, after appropriate country code (? Does that mean you could get on this from outside the USA by preceding it with the USA country code?). No doubt it only reaches a recording machine; but why not call and thank them for keeping this:

6055 survives into another season for daily English to NAm at 0000, checked at 0046 April 1, when it`s playing Spanish music not // the REE Spanish frequencies.

21515, April 1 at 1401, REE news on new frequency very poor // equally insufficient 21610, but at least out from under inbooming KUWAIT 21540 where it had collided for years (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also GERMANY for new 15390 QRM to 15385 Emisión Sefarad

** SUDAN [non]. 15725, April 1 at 1503, good signal in Arabish about Sudan, with nasty self-imposed modulation echo pretending to be long/short path; ID in passing as Radio Tamazuj. Yes, it`s the A-13 frequency for that and R. Dabanga to follow at 1530, altho in HFCC shown only as PNW via SMG, CVA: 1500-1627, 250 kW, 139 degrees from VATICAN. PNW means Press Now, the parent organization in Hilversum, which is now more of a SWBC service than RNW. Are they still in the old RNW building abandoned by RNW? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1662 monitoring: Sunday March 31 at 2309, WTWW-2 is on 9930 and steady without wobble now; 2314 WOR 1662 plays again. Thanks, Ted! Presumably changed to 5085 circa 0000 April 1; at 0045 VG with country music spun by Ted Randall, and still past 0104 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 690, April 1 at 0551 UT open carrier/dead air is again dominant here, i.e. KGGF Coffeyville KS. This has been happening again and again after local midnight, as if deliberate, but surely not; why not just turn off the transmitter completely if nothing to modulate? I`m sure the municipal Coffeyville Electric Dept doesn`t mind the extra 5+ kWh on the bills (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. 880, April 1 at 0540 UT, KRVN Nebraksa is dominant as usual but in tight E/W null, I am hearing Cuban music and something in English: the latter proves to be WCBS news with weather mentioning White Plains! (which I always associate with AT&T on SW). Believe it or not, WCBS and the other NYC `clears` are quite a rarity out here more than 2 megameters away. By 0541 I am hearing a Mex mx mix instead but if it was really Cuba earlier that would be a 10 kW R. Progreso in Mantua, Pinar del Río per WRTH (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 880, April 1 at 0544 UT after hearing WCBS and Cuban music with KRVN nulled, ``La Ley`` mentioned which could be a slogan ID; trouble is, none such listed for Mexico on 880 in WRTH, IRCA or Cantú, altho the latter easily searchable does have five of them on other Mexican frequencies. Could it be a US station? Yes! NRC AM Log shows WIJR Highland IL, 160 watts at night; just east of St Louis MO. Next question: why would any radio station name itself ``The Law``? Must have some other connotation (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 960, April 1 at 0500-0505 UT, KGWA Fox-hole is occupied by ABC News, surely KMA Shenandoah IA, but as always, it contains nothing but national ads, and KGWA modulation cuts back on before anything local can be heard from the understation (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VATICAN. 7250, April 1 at 0527, VR is already on in unscheduled English, poor with flutter, ending program, ``L.I.C.`` and 0529 bells. Can`t hear any // on 9645, 6075 or 3975. So it`s up to its old trix, following one-hour-earlier summer-time shift away from God`s time. Still at 0530, not on 6075, and at 0533 not on 3975, tho UK DRM noise is quite audible circa 3950-3960. At 0536, however, I find that 9645 has come on with Greg. chant in Latin mass service, now much better than 7250. A13 EiBi shows the 0530 Latin is no longer scheduled on 3975 or 6075, just 7250, 9645, 15595 and 585 --- and new 5980: must check that one. And there is supposedly NO English at 0500 on any frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VIETNAM [non]. 12005, April 1 at 0252, if V. of Vietnam, English to N America via Woofferton UK is really here, it must be the JBA carrier, a bit ahead of the seasonal MUF rise. 9640 in B-12 wasn`t that great, but a lot better than this. Haven`t yet tried the earlier airing at 0100. Meanwhile, the WHRI 6175 relay in Vietnamese at 0430-0527 continues with much better reception, for CIRAF 10 = Mexico. Why don`t they use WHRI for English?? Perhaps VOV believes the fixion that US transmitters can`t serve US audiences; can`t be too careful. Must not get in trouble with the FCC or ITU (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

A-13 Voice of Korea
