Studio DX 627 - 05/07/2015

Agenda DX 05/07

ANNIVERSARIO EMITTENTI
Radio Majaguabo, Cuba (1982)
Radio Inca del Perù, 4762 Khz (1952)

Glenn Hauser logs July 3-4, 2015

** ANGOLA. 4950-, July 4 circa 0100, definitely a carrier here on the low side, when there is not much making it from S America. Strongly suspect it`s RNA which is always reported off-frequency, and with deficient modulation (if any, overnight?). (Such as 4949.75 by Carlos Gonçalves, Portugal, June 25 at 1931-1951; but he does not mention any modulation deficiency this time). It`s not at all unusual to detect 4950- carrier here around this hour, with or without anything on 60m from S America (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** AUSTRALIA. 12085 & 12065, July 4 at 1212, RA in play-by-play coverage of some SBG, unlike the missing PNG [q.v.] relay on 12025 which has been started for just such a purpose; live? it`s after 10 pm in eastern Oz; by 1252, 9580 interviews a coach about family violence (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 13130, July 4 at 1257, CNR1 jammer, very poor; none in the 12s, 14s, 15s, 16s, 17s, 18s

19000, July 4 at 1259, FRG-7 Wadley loop birdie has CCI from weak music on CNR1 jammer, then only 4 pips of ToH timesignal before cutoff. Then I tune around for the next frequency, but none heard by 1301. At 1331, there it is, a JBA carrier with flutter on 18990. These match the Sat & Wed before and after 1300 schedule of RFA Tibetan via Kuwait (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 15010, July 4 at 1338, RHC Spanish, very poor but enough to match it to 15370, which is the fulcrum making 15730 land as a leapfrog mixing product another 360 kHz lower (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 13850, July 4 at 0502, R. Cairo in extremely distorted Arabic, mentions ``al-Qahira``, and also splatters out to at least 15 kHz both sides (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA SOUTH. 15575, July 4 at 1353:45, KBS World Radio brings up Christer Brunström in Sweden for his monthly(?) DX report, which lasts until 1358:20 totaling a hefty 4:35, allowing him to talk about KNLS reactivated; WWVH YL as a way to hear Hawaii on SW; FEBC in Russian with Radio Teos; Pakistan irregular at 17-19 on 15700 in Urdu to W Europe, strong but bad audio; SLBC 11750 at 1630-1830 Fri-Sun in Sinhala for Gastarbeiter; R. Tirana for Albanian folkmusic, 27 minutes from 2000 Mon-Sat on 7465; WWCR 15825 with a very oldies show at 1300. Unlike winter, reception of the 13-14 KBS English to NAm is holding up in the summer, but only fair today (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 11600, July 4 at 0458, Kurdish music is F-G, but off the air by 0459, as the 03-05 Issoudun, FRANCE relay of Denge Kurdistane is finished. It should have handed over to Grigoriopol`, Pridnestrovye = KCH Kishinov, Moldova, for the next eight hours, but absolutely nothing audible here immediately after ISS went off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 710-, July 4 at 0527, XEDP, Ciudad Cuauhtémoc, Chihuahua is running its off-frequency transmitter tonight, causing het to KCMO or whatever, but neither readable (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 780-, July 4 at 0531 UT, harp music making lo audible het, which is all that WBBM can manage; presumably as previously reported caused by XEWGR, Monclova, Coahuila, around 779.93. Even when WBBM is audible, often marred by this. Right now, not much WGN or WLS either (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 1100, July 4 at 0536 UT, Mexican music, 0540 ``Radio Cañón, 90.1 FM`` ID, dominating, nothing from WTAM, so XETGO, Tlaltenango, Zacatecas, whose FM I also DXed directly during the big June 23 sporadic E opening. Strange how tonight, some US `clears` are inaudible, others normal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PAPUA NEW GUINEA [non]. 12025, July 4 at 0456, live coverage of a silly ballgame, apparently American Sámoa vs PNG, fair signal, past 0600 with no ID. This is the latest sensation, NBC suddenly on new SW frequencies for a special event, with conflicting info. Some think it`s via RA Shepparton; others say via Townsville, Queensland, with 10 or 20 kW. Perhaps the dormant Broadcast Australia 10 kW unit at Brandon has been reactivated for this, which would make sense, as its original purpose and antennas were for RA to cover PNG. Brandon is so small that I don`t find it on the first two atlases I grab, but it is certainly close to major city Townsville, 65 km or 41 miles away. (BTW, if Australia were ever to become a Republic, Queensland would have to be renamed: how about Gillardia? Vic and NSW are also colonial legacies. Perhaps uncontroversial geographical state nomenclature should be extended: Northeast Australia, Southeast Australia.)

One schedule says 12025 is in use at 08-20 UT, but here it is already before 0500. I was looking for it first on 9860, nominally 22-10 UT, but nothing. My next check at 1212 finds no 12025, while R. Australia  [q.v.] is in as usual on 12085 > 12065 with its own SBG coverage. Still no 12025 at 1345 check.

6075, July 4 at 1213, chanting, siren, drumming, 1216 says something for PNG is ``brought to you by NBC``, hyper music still at 1223, almost fading out by 1250. The 6075 signal is poor but that`s to be expected this late after our sunrise, and could well be starting out with 100 instead of only 10 or 20 kW. By 1252, RA 9580 is no longer in play by play football (I think, rather than cricket).

Keith Perron reported July 3: ``Papua New Guinea's national broadcaster is leasing time from the Broadcast Australia shortwave site in Brandon, Australia for coverage of the South Pacific Games. Power: 20 kW
10 to 14 UTC - 6075
19 to 22 UTC - 6075
22 to 10 UTC - 9860
When Radio Australia used this site they were running 10 kW``

Source? He misses 12025, and how did the power get doubled for this??

Aoki as of July 4 shows them thus from 1931S 14720E NBC a15 Jul. 1-18:
 6075 NBC National Radio 1900-2200 1234567 English 25 10 Brandon AUS
 6075 NBC National Radio 1000-1400 1234567 English 25 10 Brandon AUS
 9860 NBC National Radio 2200-1000 1234567 English 25 10 Brandon AUS
12025 NBC National Radio 2200-1000 1234567 English 25 80 Brandon AUS

i.e. 25 kW each on 10 and 80 degree azimuths. The 80-degree beam on 12025 is of course not for PNG, but islands further east, not to mention impacting North America beyond.

Ivo Ivanov reported earlier July 4: ``Radio NBC, National Radio of Papua New Guinea is leasing times from shortwave site in Brandon, Australia for coverage of the South Pacific Games
1900-2200  6075 BRN 020 kW / 010 deg NPac as previous RA 5995/6080
2200-1000  9860 BRN 020 kW / 010 deg NPac as previous RA freq 9660
2200-1000 12025 BRN 020 kW / 080 deg EPac as previous RA freq 12080
1000-1400  6075 BRN 020 kW / 010 deg NPac as previous RA 5995/6080``

Craig Seager posted to the ARDXC list on July 4:

``In case you hadn’t heard --- The collapse of ABC Radio Australia internal capacity to provide specific regional content has seen PNG national broadcaster step up to lease transmission time from Australian contractor Broadcast Australia for the South Pacific Games next [sic] month 4-18 July 2015. The site is Townsville in northern Queensland.

To Papua New Guinea
1000 - 1400 UT  6075 kHz
1900 - 2200 UT  6075 kHz
2200 - 1000 UT  9860 kHz

To Solomon Islands and Vanuatu
0800 - 2000 UT  12025 kHz [sic]

Both broadcasts are with a power of 20 kW AM up from 10 kW when the site carried Radio Australia programming. [for release 29 June] Via Nigel Holmes``

S. Hasegawa, Japan, was first to report 6075 on July 2; also heard by Ron Howard on July 3. Wolfgang Büschel in Germany finds the NBC signals to be too strong for 10 kW Brandon; he and Kai Ludwig suspect idle Shepparton 100 kW units are really in use at least in part. Can we get the full story on this? FWIW, before RA quit them, some of the ``Brandon 10 kW`` transmissions often sounded to me like 100 kW Sheppartons.

It would be advisable to check all three frequencies at any time propagation is possible, since I heard 12025 when ``not`` scheduled and did not hear 9860 when it was. Obviously the 24-hour schedule can`t only be about ballgames, so is this the precursor to a regular rented full NBC SW service? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 15770, July 4 at 1336, Brother Scare has turned his mike over to the YL robot screenreader voice for a gross tale about how Miss America opened her mouth to show rotting teeth (yeah, right, just like America itself is rotting, according to him). Happy Fourth! Celebrate by some positive thinking (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1780 monitoring: confirmed Friday July 3 at 2130 on WRMI 15770, and weaker at 2130.5 on WRMI 7570. Next:
Sat 1930v on WA0RCR 1860-AM

Wed 1430 on Hamburger Lokalradio 7265-CUSB
Wed 2100 on WBCQ 7490v
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5830, July 4 at 0451, open carrier/dead air from WTWW-1 instead of PPPP. Meant to check again in a few minutes. Standard remark about how can any station expect people to listen to it, when no one at the station itself is constantly monitoring it? Of course, PPPP himself is not available (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 12050, 11550, 11520, July 4 at 1255, no WEWN on any; by 1340, 12050 Spanish is audible but very poor; at 1341, 11550 becomes a fair open carrier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 890, July 4 at 0533 UT, Spanish preacher with direxions to churches in San Benito and Harlingen; dominating, and when nulled I don`t get WLS, but R. Progreso, Cuba music // much weaker 900; so this is KVOZ, Del Mar Hills TX, 10/1 kW. DMH is a Laredo suburb, way up the Rio from the RGV origination on 1210 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

ANNIVERSARIO EMITTENTI
Radio Indoamerica, Bolivia 1235 Khz (1942)

Radio Continente, Caracas, Venezuela 5030 Khz (1936)
WRAI, Puerto Rico 1520 Khz (1949)

Glenn Hauser logs July 2-3, 2015

** ARGENTINA. 11710.7, July 3 at 0110, tango and sounds like Spanish talk, maybe so but it`s really the Portuguese hour of RAE, poor signal and lite het from something on 11710.0; at first no crackling spur from 11780 Brasil, but starts to bother by 0116, and at 0117 it`s definitely in Brazuguese (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BRAZIL. 11815, July 3 at 0116, fair signal with music in Portuguese; would be sufficient reception of R. Brasil Central, Goiânia if it were not for the crackling spur from nearby Brasília 11780. Some further chex catch it only during music. Same situation at 0501 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BRAZIL. 11855, July 3 at 0501 tune-in, ``Com a Mãe Aparecida`` program ID, 5 chimes, ``até as 5 da manhã`` = until 08 UT; good R. Aparecida signal, better than usual, yet 11780 and spurs are not stronger than usual (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 18980, July 3 at 1341, CNR1 jammer, fair-good, which is the Friday & Tuesday RFA Tibetan via Kuwait 13-14 frequency as in HFCC. 

Then seeking more CNR1 jammers, but none found 18-11 MHz except some usual inbanders such as 13690, good at 1345 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** COLOMBIA. 5910, July 3 at 0457, nothing but NHK via FRANCE audible a bit before closing, no het or anything, so Alcaraván Radio must be off again after having been heard reactivated June 26-27. Of course, they might as well turn it off voluntarily between 03 and 05 due to NHK, but that could make too much sense. The Colombian telecom authority makes no attempt to protect HJDH from such QRM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [and non]. RHC anomalies circa 0500 UT July 3: at 0458, English is already on 6060; is this just a bit early, or all during the previous hour(s) too instead of scheduled Spanish? 6100 is a big open carrier prior to 0500 start; 6165 and 6000, the all-evening frequencies, are on as usual. At 0500, Spanish is still on 9535, mixing with Algeria via FRANCE, but by 0506 recheck, no Cuba while RTA is in French instead of Arabic.

After logging mixing products on 15010 and 15040 yesterday morning via the PL-880 on the porch, I`m trying again this time on the main FRG-7 with much longer wire:

15010, July 3 at 1344, JBA signal detectable, and it is // 15370, i.e., 15730 over 15370 another 360 kHz lower.

15040? The CRI relay carrier is not yet on 15700 to produce a 15700/15370 leapfrog another 330 kHz lower, but when 15700 is on at 1400, I am still not hearing 15040 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 13850, July 3 at 0507, R. Cairo, suptorted Arabic and big hum, spreading out to 13840-13860; 0508 hum stops, and now 13860 is clear for Farda (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GREECE. 9935, July 3 at 0107, ERA again suffering from self-imposed big whine = multiple spur carriers, in Greek talk, while // 9420 is clear.

11645, July 3 at 0502, R. Dabanga via VATICAN has low rumbling het, presumably caused by ERA co-channel; so back to clear 9420 at 0503 still in Greek, with ``IFTH`` ID, 0504 IS and another ID, 0604 ``kalimera``. Couldn`t stay with it longer, but was hoping to hear multi-lingual news hour presumably from R. Filia domestic network (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. Sporadic E analog TV DX July 3: Turn on channel 2 at 1430 UT.

1442 on 2, some CCI appears; 1451 the audio is Spanish

1454 on 3, now MUF up to here with some video

1508 on 2, Spanish YL with variety? show; no bugs visible but may be there; shortly a better fade-in has a vertical rectangle in the upper right, including 24 = temperature somewhere.

1517 on 2, ad for Plan B

1527 on 2, now the UR bug is clearer with a large 7 at its upper-right, so likely XHTAU Tampico on regional Azteca-7 network (morning show originating in Monterrey?); now besides the 24 I can also read a clock at 10:27, i.e. CDT = HVCM, so not Tu Canal, XEPM in Juárez as I first suspected, and which is due to quit ch 2 for UHF digital on July 14. A fashion show earlier, a lady with two large numbers on her breast, now one in shorts labeled ``el estilo ``chicken```. 

6m Es map shows no Mexican contacts except XE2M on the border in BCN. Weak signals on 2 continue past 1628 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6876-AM, July 3 at 0102, music on poor signal vs storm noise level from nearby in OK, no better at 0123. John Poet had tipped earlier that there would be a The Crystal Ship relay starting about 0030. It seems most 42-43 mb pirates are in eastern N America where they are generally much better heard than way out here in the periphery, especially in summer (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, July 3 at 0101, JBA carrier from R. Chaski, Urubamba, and barely able to perceive when it autocuts off, 0105:21*. This is 55.5 seconds later than last successful Chaski-check eight days before on UT June 24 until 0104:25.5*, ergo averaging 6.9 seconds later per day, considerably more than the usual ~6 seconds. So the slippage is slipping. Of course this takes into account the leap-second in the meantime, always comparing to current WWV signals (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** SRI LANKA. 11905, July 3 at *0114:14 very poor carrier on from SLBC; music prélude from about 0114:48; talk sign-on from 0115:23, but could not hear any timesignal preceding it. Sometimes they do skip it, but the other events confirm they are *still* running about 19 seconds slower than the rest of the world (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 13558 approx., July 3 at 0120, MTI CW HIFER beacon which is from Stone Mountain GA near Atlanta, weak but considerably better signal than previous morning log at 1340 July 2; now copes with CODAR swishes more than ISM hash circa 13560 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1780 monitoring: confirmed Thursday July 2 at 2100 on WRMI 7570, poorly audible here thru heavy daytime absorption, and presumably much better further east and/or closer, but not too close, to Okeechobee. Next:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9330-CUSB, July 3 at 0106, WBCQ is on with YL preacher, VG signal; next check at 0459 it`s off, probably just missed closedown, while 5110-CUSB continues with BS on VP signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 540, July 3 at 0512 UT, English talk from NNE/SSW, seems news week-in-review; 0514 mentions Iowa and KWMT ID. Most unusual to hear Fort Dodge in the clear at night: no XEWA, XETX, KDFT or CBK. In the daytime on 5 kW groundwave it`s constantly clashing underneath KDFT. Night power is 170 watts, and it is aimed southward (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1080, July 3 at 0130:05 UT, KRLD Dallas makes quick break for change from day to night pattern while maintaining 50 kW, at almost the FCC-appointed time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

ANNIVERSARIO EMITTENTI
Radio Mambì, Cuba (1935)
Liberty Radio, Gran Bretagna 963 Khz (1995)
BBC Ascension relay (1966)
Radio Jornal de Commercio, Brasile 15145 Khz (1948)

Glenn Hauser logs July 1-2, 2015

** ALASKA. 9655, July 2 at 1032, weak KNLS amid English hour, tough copy with ACI on both sides from somewhat stronger Sino-Chosun transmitters, but a clear enunciator is praying to a father; just my luck not to catch them during a secular segment. KNLS website undated, quoted by Australian DX News, says they are not fully operational yet, using one transmitter and one antenna for all broadcasts. Aoki shows 100 kW at 285 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** BRAZIL. 11735, July 2 at 1038, live YL DJ in Brazuguese with :37 timecheck, addressing her ``família da rádio``, fair signal, some music, joined by OM announcer. No sign of VOK, allegedly scheduled here too this hour in English as well as R. Transmundial, at 08-02 per Aoki 50 kW, 60 degrees from Santa Maria-Camobi. And I never hear it in the 01-02 period. At 1042 there is some weak music mixing with ZYE858, not sure if part of its own background or North Korea (which later this morning owns 11735).

11725, July 2 at 1038, having heard 11735, I seek the allegedly reactivated R. Marumby, and attain only a JBA carrier. Daniel Wyllyans in MT had reported it on June 16; and ntt aktuell says it came back June 9 // 6080 and 9515, part of the Sistema Iensen de Comunicação, in Curitiba PR, a.k.a. Rádio Novas de Paz, which is only how Aoki lists it at 08-21. ntt says the website mentions 730, 6080 and 9515 only. 11725 is not in WRTH 2015, even as inactive, but the latest National update mentions 11725 testing (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA [and non]. ChiCom jamming morning of July 2:

17665, Thu July 2 at 1309, CNR1 jamming vs BBC Uzbek via Oman, this semihour only on Sun/Thu/Sat; same as on 17705 vs AIR in Chinese with Saudi Arabia in the way too

15115, July 2 at 1329, Firedragon! All-musical jamming is primary atop, but CNR1 also vs VOA Chinese via Thailand, as the hyper-paranoid ChiCom just can`t bear to let in anything possibly contrary to the Party Line

15265, July 2 at 1332, CNR1 jamming making het against always off-frequency Taiwan; no Firedragon here. At 1353, CNR1 echoing from more than one site

15555, July 2 at 1349, CNR1 jammer, poor, vs JBA carrier on 15552, no doubt V. of Tibet via TAJIKISTAN

15535, July 2 at 1350, CNR1 jammer, very poor, vs JBA carrier on 15537, no doubt V. of Tibet via TAJIKISTAN

15275, July 2 at 1353, CNR1 jammer alone. This hour only, daily target is RFA Tibetan via Tajikistan per Aoki

17760, July 2 at 1402, CNR1 jammer, good with slight SAH, which this hour only would be from victim VOA Tibetan via Thailand on Sun/Tue/Thu/Sat and this is Thursday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6165, July 2 at 0525, RHC English on this frequency is *much* weaker than the others, as usually the case now; strongest is 6100 with 6060, 6000 close behind. The A-15 original schedule from April shows in the 05-07 period:

6060 A1  100 kW Bauta to Nueva York

6100 A7  100 kW Bauta to San Francisco

6165 A10 100 kW Bauta to Chicago

6000 A4  250 kW Titán to Wásh DC

Exact azimuths aren`t given but the 6100 San Francisco beam should be closest to us, with Chicago 6165 second best, instead of last; so have they swapped them around, or running 6165 at low power? We should also check if 6000 is really out of synch with the others. Further anomalies:

15705-15755 approx., July 2 at 1311, RHC Spanish bigsig on 15730 is splattering out to plus/minus 25 kHz. This is Bauta 1, supposedly 100 kW on A4 antenna toward Rio de Janeiro, but plenty plenty USward

15010, July 2 at 1330, RHC Spanish, fair but readable signal, which is a leapfrog mixing product of 15730 over 15370 another 360 kHz lower. Don`t think I`ve heard it here before. 15370 is 100 kW Bauta-4 on antenna-8 for San Francisco

16090, July 2 at 1331 is theoretically where the reverse leapfrog of 15370 over 15730 should land, and I do get a JBA carrier here, only

15040, July 2 at 1354, RHC Spanish poor also here but not earlier when I was getting 15010. That`s because the 15700 CRI relay transmitter is now already on with open carrier: 15700 leaping over 15370 another 330 kHz lower to land on 15040. Some complete fade-outs. 

All these are on the PL-880 on the porch with short reel-out antenna. Since they are still heard weaker with receiver attenuation I think they are genuinely transmitted. Huge fundamental signals help to audiblize mixing products, many, many dB down but not completely

11950, July 2 at 1415, RHC still running here with jazz, // 15730, 15370, 15230, 9640, while 13740 and 11860 are off. Bauta-3, 11950 ex-11760 is the sole midday frequency staying on at 15-18, same parameters as at 11-15 UT, 100 kW non-direxional (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GUATEMALA. 4055, July 2 at 1027, R. Verdad is amid canned multi-lingual ID and address spiel, Swedish into Japanese (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** JAPAN [non]. 11730, July 2 at 0529, NHK World Radio Japan citing entire schedule in English which is so short it will fit into one minute if they don`t bother with relay sites, and who cares about those? Trouble is, this precedes the French language via France at 0530-0600, and should have been appended to the 0500 English broadcast via France on 11970 which is already off. Switching uncoördinated making for a little-known English transmission lacking from schedules, 0529-0530 on 11730. At 0530 Sakura and into French, indeed (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH. 15245, July 2 at 1328, VOK with triumphal music // 13760 // 11710 // 9435 during English hour, half of which are to America, half to Europe. 

11735 // 13650, July 2 at 1339, VOK with more music but not // the four frequencies above since this pair are in the Chinese service. No undertones of mixing jamming noise audible, but surely there are on at least some of them as some level (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 590, July 2 at 1101 UT, full ID from XEFD, Reynosa, Tamaulipas, ``info Rio Bravo``, atop Omaha or anything else shortly before sunrise here at 1118 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 710, July 2 at 1108 UT, super-patriotic ``Soy Soldado`` recitation again, from XEDP, Ciudad Cuauhtémoc, Chihuahua; not off frequency and no het. We also hear this around local midnight, 0600v UT, so presumably circa sign-off and sign-on; or every 5 or 6 hours too? Basta (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** MEXICO. 900, July 2 at 1114 UT, ``Siempre 88-9`` mentioned during national weather info from Culiacán to Mérida, 6:14 TC; plug for Oaxaca, 1116 song clip of ``Day the Music Died`` in English, ``Siempre 88-9`` again, informativo, fading. Loops SSW and I figure it`s the usual XEOK Monterrey, but what FM is it relaying? XHM in the DF, which is an Acir station, and confirming here also on XEOK

http://siempre889.com/la-estacion/cobertura-nacional/

which however does not show the frequency for all of them (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. Channel A2 NTSC, July 1 at 1659 UT, fade-in some CCI by sporadic E, including same-offset beat; 6m Es map shows opening centered over New Mexico? and MUF 55 MHz; nothing identifiable until 1733 when I spot the Televisa-2 net star bug in lower right, and nothing more today (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NEW ZEALAND. 11685-11690-11695, July 2 at 0530, DRM noise, which I can`t imagine is anything but RNZI, on a former DRM frequency but NOT on their current website schedule at this hour, where it`s supposedly in a DRM break until 0651 M-F on 7330 (recently heard well by Walt Salmaniw in BC). However, in alternative HFCC registrations, RAN is shown with DRM at 0645-0800 as well as 1850-2100 when it`s on RNZI`s own schedule at 1851-1950 daily. Meanwhile, at 0530 July 2, RNZI is on AM audible to all as usual on 11725 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SARAWAK [non]. 15425, July 2 at 1035 no signal from reactivated Radio Free Sarawak, nor hardly anything else on dead band. S. Hasegawa, Japan had reported it back since June 26 at *1030-1200*.

By 1137 there is a very poor signal; by 1147 now it`s faded up with audible talk and dramatic music; 1150 phone ringing and interviewing someone via it, all in presumed Iban. Never caught an ID but 1158 music lasts until 1200 OC for a few seconds and off*. 

See DXLD 14-47, for news about its suspension as of November 17, 2014 due to jamming. Site now not yet known, but had been Palauig, Radio Veritas Asia, Philippines, and allegedly also at times Taiwan, or maybe Palau (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 13558 approx., July 2 at 1340, JBA very slow CW sending MTI with long pauses, every 13.75 seconds, i.e. slightly more than 4 times per minute = 55 seconds. Haven`t heard this one in a while, from Stone Mountain GA; LWCA list puts it on 13557.54. No others audible at this time on the 13550-13570 HIFER band (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1779 monitoring: confirmed on webcast of WBCQ 7490, Wednesday July 1 at 2100.

WORLD OF RADIO 1780 monitoring: confirmed first SW airing, Thursday July 2 at 1130 on WRMI 9955; good signal but lite pulse jamming audible underneath, surging during mid-break at 1145; tnx a lot, Arnie! Next:

** U S A. 1080, July 2 at 1130 UT, I happen to be tuning across KRLD Dallas when there is a momentary glitch during traffic report, corresponding to the official July sunrise time for pattern change from broad cardioid at night nulling toward Hartford to non-direxional day; no difference in reception here. July SR/SS are 1130/0130 UT; August: 1145/0115 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VATICAN. 17590, July 2 at 1212, poor-fair talk in Italian. Must be Vatican Radio, certainly not Rai – yes, scheduled daily 1200-1220, following on Fridays only, English at 1130, both direct from SMG. At 1220, turns over 17590 to the Islamic Republic of Iran for an Indonesian hour; how ecumenical a frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Launch of RFE broadcasts from Prague recalled on 20th anniversary

Wednesday is the 20th anniversary of the launch of Radio Free Europe broadcasts from Prague. The US-funded symbol of the Cold War had moved to the city’s former communist parliament building at the invitation of President Václav Havel, who was keen to reinforce the Czech Republic’s new ties with the West.

 

Radio Free Europe in Munich, photo: Archive of RFE During the Cold War many people in Czechoslovakia and elsewhere in the Eastern Bloc tuned in illicitly to Radio Free Europe, an originally CIA-funded station that broadcast across the Iron Curtain from then West Germany.

Speaking last year, former RFE president Kevin Klose recalled that the fall of communism in Eastern Europe had left the US station looking for a new role.

“It had been in Munich from the 1950s on and the Wall had come down. It was clear as integration occurred between East and West that the radios really needed to move into the region. President Havel sent a letter to President Clinton and invited the radios in, early in President Clinton’s first year in the White House, in 1993. As we know, President Havel had the former parliamentary building in mind. When we got approval from the Clinton administration to do it, we made the move very quickly.” 

Václav Havel, photo: ČT Mr. Klose said Václav Havel had told him that having Radio Free Europe in Prague was equivalent to having three NATO divisions.

Mr. Havel clearly saw the move as a major step on the path to the country becoming an integral part of the Western community. 

“It is a great expression of trust in the Czech Republic. Prague will to a certain degree be a symbol of that message of freedom disseminated to the world. This clearly accentuates the fact that we belong to the world of Western democracy, to that circle of civilisation.”

Among the hundreds of RFE staff who also made the eastwards move from Munich to Prague was the Czech journalist Jefim Fištejn.

“For me and many of my colleagues it represented the fulfillment of our wishes and ideas. I took it as a ‘return to the known’. I felt indebted to the Czech people… The population did not have a shortage of information but things needed to be explained to them. RFE functioned something like an underground university – explaining how free societies and their components worked.”

A Czech language version of the station was also set up in Prague and broadcast until the early 2000s.

Following the 9/11 attacks concrete barriers and armoured vehicles were placed in front of the Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty building in central Prague. A high-security new HQ was opened in the suburbs seven years later.

Today the station broadcasts in 28 languages to 21 states. Most are in Asia, but RFE/RL continues to target a small number of European countries, including Belarus and Ukraine.

Glenn Hauser logs June 30-July 1, 2015

** BRAZIL. 11780, July 1 at 0555, RNA/RNB is very distorted on fundamental, unlistenable. The 11708/11744/11816 cracking spurs are also audible but weaker than usual (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 18990, July 1 at 1312, CNR1 jammer, poor-fair, matching schedule of RFA Tibetan via Kuwait, Wed and Sat at 13-14.

17705, July 1 at 1313, CNR1 jammer poorly mixing with Saudi Arabia if not intended target AIR India in Chinese until 1315

No out-of-band CNR1 jammers heard 12-18 MHz, just poorly on 15115, 15265, 11785 circa 1315 July 1. Propagation is still degraded. Of course some of them may not have cut on until a few minutes later (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** FRANCE. 13725, July 1 at *0559, RFI cuts on in French, 0600 switches to English.

13750, July 1 at 0610, something in Hausa, per HFCC RFI Issoudun daily at 0600-0630; I didn`t notice this yesterday while checking out NIGERIA [non] via same site, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 11600, July 1 at 0342, Kurdish music on fair signal, ex-11510, as expected QSY for Denge Kurdistane, initial *0300 bihour via FRANCE. Not clear why the change. July 1 Aoki still has it on 11510, and on 11600 nothing but Sound of Hope relaying RFA and drawing ChiCom jamming, but none of that heard here at 1317, nor D. K. on either frequency, which was the usual situation via Bulgaria after 1300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NIGERIA. 9690-, July 1 at 0558, open carrier starts drumming, very good signal as VON Hausa is about to start; but no signal on formerly // 7255 or 7255 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NIGERIA [non]. 13725, July 1 at *0600, good signal from Issoudun, FRANCE, cuts on just before cacophony of modulation starts like yesterday, sign-on in English of ``Nigerian Armed Forces Radio; we bring you news, views and comment on matters of the moment``, announcing frequencies as 11825 and 13775, I think. (Yesterday it sounded like 11625, and the accent still makes it hard to distinguish ``eight`` from ``six``.) 

11825 also audible better than yesterday, poor level now, also in English, but NOT // or not synchronized with 13775. At 0604, 11825 is announcing a long text message number for listeners. I could not copy all the digits for sure, but something like 2308148366886. At 0606 announcement by YL on 13775; while 11825 is repeating the OM announcement about texting. At 0640 I awaken to hear on 13775 the same sign-on announcement where the OM announcer stumbles over the 13775 frequency mention, repeats it. In between it`s just music on these tests arranged by RMI for a `week` starting June 30 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 5020, July 1 at 1203, SIBC carrier still on and barely detectable. Ron Howard says it stayed on now with Cyclone Raquel warnings instead of relaying Wantok FM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5000, June 30 at 2357 UT, I`m monitoring WWV for the Leap Second; to my surprise, I was getting *no* signal vs local noise level on 10000 which normally would be best here at this daypart. A weak one on 15000, but 5000 is better tho also weak. I count the seconds between 2359 and 2400 --- yes, there are 61 of them! Mission accomplished. I understand there is a movement to eliminate leap seconds, instead gradually adjust the clox over time? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
