** BOLIVIA. 6135-, July 19 at 0107, music on surprisingly fair signal, lite het no doubt from Aparecida; 0110 YL ID clearly ``Radio Santa cruz, la primera``, back to music. The first what? Certainly the best if not only signal out of S America on 49m tonight. Too bad about all the storm noise, else this would be quite listenable strength. Closest lightning is small area circa Guymon OK but plenty of other spots around the country, especially Cincinnati-Indianapolis-Detroit (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** BRAZIL. 11815, July 19 at 0120, R. Brasil Central music at poor level but hardly any crackling spur from 11780 this time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 9820, July 18 at 1159, RHC IS, VG signal here unusually on a par with 9850; by 1213, back to inferior, and comparing them, there`s a reverb between two different sites: 9850 is Bauta-4, 100 kW toward Chicago, while 9820 is Bejucal-9, 100 kW with an Actral antenna, whatever that mean (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 9965, 9315, 11935 and 12070, all four R. Cairo frequencies are absent, July 19 at 0118 and later chex. Not due to propagation as e.g. Turkey 9770 & 9870, and by 0126, Albania 9850 are doing fine (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GREECE. 9420 & 9935, July 19 at 0119, it`s another off-night for Voice of Greece. Not due to propagation as e.g. Turkey 9770 & 9870, and by 0126, Albania 9850 are doing fine (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. Sporadic E analog TVDX, July 17, UT:
2314 on 2, fade-in Televisa-2 net star bug lower right, then image of Virgen de Guadalupe with her mandatory rays, a Mexican thing

2328 on 2, fade-in during a novela, still net-2 bug; 6m Es map shows centered over Kentucky, but not for this path

2338 on 2, fade-in again, still net-2 bug

UT July 18:

0000 on 2, fade-in again, still same

0002 on 2, now the novela features guys in hard-hats; also algo on 4

0034 on 2, old movie, probably monochrome, playing a 78 rpm, sounds like Gardel, no bug visible on this one, CCI with the above novela

0047 on 4, animated movie, Televisa-5 net bug in LR

0134 on 2, still some CCI [co-channel interference]

1755 on 2 and 3, CCI and Spanish

1753 on 2, Televisa-5 net bug in LR during movie? not animation; NO activity shown on either 6m map!

1802 on 2, still Televisa-5 bug LR, same offset CCI, now seems novela

1806 on 2, ``Cine Cinco`` promo heard 

[break in my TVDX monitoring, not promising, I thought]

2010 on 2, resume monitoring, CCI with Azteca 7 promo audio; Gala swirl video bug lower right; stronger signals than before and more MUF

2010 on 4, CCI from algo

2012 on 5, CCI, brief MUF peak, maybe just beating against KOCO cable radiation; but time to check FM

2013 on 88.1, sermon in Spanish, seems Es rather than Oasis fooler; so I head to the preferred FM DX monitoring spot on the 100 degree porch

2022 on 97.7, no Es DX found from 87.75 up, until now a few words of weak Spanish. Reminds me of XHGL Mérida to go with frequent ch 2 visitor XHY-TV; but there are now 18 other XEs on 97.7!

[deep fading completely out and in doesn`t have to be Es, especially on a hot OK afternoon: on 99.5, a signal is doing just that, but soon an ad for something in Coweta, so it`s merely KXBL Henryetta OK; after one last lower bandscan, back inside for cool TVDX]

2032 on 4, strong signal with Azteca 7 promo, heavy ghosting

2032 on 4, CCI at 10 kHz offset. Now the 6m central Es node is over north Texas

2042 on 2, movie with unknown bug in upper right; a bit more CCI and then nothing more (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925-USB, July 19 at 0123 blues music, 0127 fax? QRM to 0128, still on at 0149. Closer to 0100 a pirate bandscan produced nothing. UnID logs here turned into Radio Gaga by 0152*
Just too much storm noise here vs signals just too weak.

6945-USB, July 19 at 0140, pirate music, slightly stronger than 6925, and 6945 was not on when I first heard 6925. 0142, ``Dick Weed on the air, this is Radio Free What-ever``; 0151 another ID. Numerous detailed logs here say he started circa 0130 with Russian anthem:
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OMAN. 9740, July 19 at 0112, Mideast music strumming and Arabic talk, somewhat undermodulated, presumably RSO on alternate frequency as there is nothing on prime channel 9500; other alternate 15140 has a JBA carrier, probably CRI in Chinese. 9740 is `alternate` only in the sense that it`s scheduled for 22-24 UT only, then 9500. However, Iran is supposed to start Urdu eastward at 0120 on 9740, and it seemed like I was hearing the same station as before at 0143 recheck; RSO staying presumably on the 315 antenna much more favorable for us (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PAPUA NEW GUINEA [non]. 6075, July 18 at 1200, NBC relay via Shepparton, AUSTRALIA, importation-assistance ad again in English, then one in Tok Pisin; no news on this hour. 1201 ID for 90.7 and mobile numbers, song about the games. 1205 DJ acknowledges text messages thanking NBC for coverage of the games, and of the closing ceremony. Says CDs of the opening and closing ceremonies will be available (what about TV?); congrats to Team PNG (not ``TPNG``). Still fair signal, on what could be the last day of this ``temporary`` relay setup; or will they let it continue for normal times? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, July 19 at 0104, JBA carrier from R. Chaski. Good thing I tune in already, as it cuts off earlier than expected at 0104:59.5*. Extrapolating from last capture 9 days earlier, July 10 until 0106:03.5*, I was expecting it to have slipped close to 0107*. Unless this is an anomaly, must have reset autocutoff timer but not all the way back to 0100v, as this is 64 seconds *earlier* (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SRI LANKA. 11905, July 19 at *0114:11.5, weak carrier on from SLBC, 0114:46.5 music prélude starts; 0115:19.0 the 2+1 mistimesignal ends, opening presumed Bengali (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1782 monitoring: confirmed Friday July 17 at 2130 on WRMI 15770, and at 2130.5 on WRMI 7570 --- this time 7570 is as good as 15770, much better than usual. Also confirmed Saturday July 18 after 1430 (via UTwente) on Hamburger Lokalradio 7265-CUSB, sufficient. Next:
0315vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM

1315 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955
1430 UT Wednesday HLR 7265-CUSB
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9955, July 19 at 0116, WRMI modulation is suptorted, not English, maybe Kriyol. Suspect it`s an input, not output problem, i.e. crummy program source. Listed for 0115-0130 UT Sunday is Soulsvision. At 0142 now the modulation is OK from next show in Spanish giving address for Ejército de la Salvación en Atlanta, Georgia, i.e. `Maravillosas Palabras de Vida`; and at 0151 now W&M in Italian, the language of the `Made in Italy` show rather than English. If they were to do an English version, the title would then be in Italian (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

venerdì 17 luglio 2015

Glenn Hauser logs July 16-17, 2015

** AUSTRALIA. 17840, July 17 at 0210, RA remains the OSOB, or at least the SSOB most of the evening; now I pause for some classical music, but it`s just an illustrative excerpt from Rachmaninoff`s Piano Concerto No. 2, second movement, back to interview with the artist by Margaret (Throsby) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BRAZIL. 11710, 11745, 11815, July 17 at 0526, big crackling spurs are back from 11780 RNA/RNB, after a couple nights of almost totally suppressing them. I *knew* that couldn`t last (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 840, July 17 at 0538 UT, WHAS can be nulled to hear Spanish, bio of Wilfrido Vargas, the Dominican merengue master. Presumably 10 kW Radio CMHW Santa Clara, rather than a Mexican. I seldom hear any XE here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6100, July 17 at 0533, this is the missing RHC English frequency tonight, the other four of The Cuban Five nominal altho with usual defects.

9850, July 17 at 1236, RHC Spanish missing from this one, still nominal on 9550, 9640, 9820, et al. higher.

Are these the same transmitter? No, 6100 is Bauta-2 supposed to start at 0500; 9850 is Bauta-4 supposed to end at 1300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 13850, July 17 at 0213, R. Cairo Arabic to N America is open carrier, or rather just barely modulated, distorted

9965, July 17 at 0218, R. Cairo, other Arabic service with music, good strength but JBM with whine; unseems distorted, anyway

9315, July 17 at 0220, R. Cairo good signal, but English modulation to N America is suptorted (suppressed + distorted), and hummy (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GREECE. 9935, July 17 at 0218, big whine from V of Greece atop music, which is clear on good 9420. At least no more double audio echoing. Neither heard after 0500 when Wolfgang Büschel says they went off today (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA. 15120, July 17 at 0212, 1 kHz tone, poor signal, 0213 wonderful AIR IS, 0215 opening a language listed as Kannada. It`s 0215-0300, 500 kW, 300 degrees from Bengaluru; to be followed by Hindi, Gujarati and Hindi until 0530 on 240 degrees per Aoki.

13695, July 17 at 0214, ~1 kHz tone test, but no AIR IS here, 0215 very poor into language talk, also listed as Kannada, 500 kW, 300 degrees from Bengaluru. I didn`t try to // with 15120, as assumed something different since one had the IS and the other not; why? 13695 is followed by Hindi until 0415, also 300 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 13560, July 16 circa 1600 UT, I am waiting in a medical office near one of Enid`s hospitals, with the G8 to entertain me; most signals are severely attenuated inside the building, so I check the Industrial/Scientific/Medical part 15(?) frequency, and behold, there are hefty pulses much like CODAR, but these extend way beyond on either side, thru most of the 22m broadcast band. Not the kind of `hash` I hear at home impeding HIFER beacons (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 88.3, July 17 at 1559 UT, ID only for KEAR, 88.1, Sacramento, which is the feeder for Fámily Radio translators around the country. So now the one in Enid, K202BY, has been reactivated. It had been missing since at least Feb 15, opening up a good sporadic-E DX frequency, and I hoped it was gone for good. Now repaired, with stereo signal and usual FR programming. Fortunately it`s weak enough not to impede 88.1 KWOU Woodward`s attempts to fringereach Enid (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5085, UT Fri July 17 at 0535, WTWW-2 is unusually on with rock music, soon Ted with shoutouts to alleged listeners, first names only, and all in the USA, then playing an alleged request. Is it really live? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9265, July 17 at 0222, no signal from WINB, already off, despite latest schedule on website
dated July 5 for Thursday evening in ET/UT:
09:00P / Fri-0200...Faith Holiness Church
09:30P / Fri-0230...NeUventureon Wallstreet [sic]
WINB *still* hasn`t figured out that ET is currently EDT which is 4 hours, not 5 hours behind UT!! So maybe they really went off at 0200 UT with Wallstreet show starting at 0130 UT? Schedule is headed in general ``0730-2200 EST`` [sic] (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1060, July 17 at 0156 UT, I`m deliberately checking for KIJN Farwell TX, 10 kW daytimer which if on the air should be about to sign off at legal sunset --- but no trace of it. No het against anything from its perpetually off-frequency transmitter --- but if I aim N/S, I do get a het, obviously from XERDO Matamoros etc.

1060, July 17 at 0158 UT, EWTN fades in, i.e. KRCN Colorado, which has another half hour to legally run 50 kW day power (August: until 0200 UT); it has also sometimes run day power into the night instead of 111 watts, but not noticed lately. And still no sign of KIJN; see previous report about its difficulties with the FCC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1190, July 17 at 0200 UT, singing ID for ``All American Radio, KQQZ``, then ``Jimmy Brown``. Oh2, official July sunset is 0130 UT (August: 0100 UT). FCC shows 10 kW daytime, 22 watts night from Desoto MO; but has CP to change COL to Fairview Heights IL, where it can run 650 watts at night (or hey, why not just keep on 10 kW??). (St Louis MO market). Multiple slogans from website
Hot Talk / Kool Killer Kountry / ``The 1st Amendment and All American Station`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7205, July 17 at 0222, very poor AM signal with singing, presumed Sudan Radio on earlier than Aoki-listed *0245 for what`s left of Ramadan --- but then it disappears, so maybe instead a spoiled ham (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Geomagnetic activity forecast for the period July 17 - 23, 2015

Next days, July 17 - 19, we expect at most quitet to unsettled conditions.
Monday, July 20, the local geomagnetic field is expected as unsettled.
Next days, July 21-22, active conditions are expected because of
equatorial coronal hole (a month ago, the K-index at Budkov observatory
had reached to 7). Next week, the addition of CME to speed solar wind is
less probable, we expected geomagnetic activity should not exceed minor
storm level.
Last day of forecasted week, we expect at most unsettled conditions.

Amplifications of the solar wind are expected on July (19,)
20 - 25, (26,) August (1 - 5, 8,) 9 - 10

Remark:
- Reliability of predictions remains reduced in pesent phase od solar cycle.
- Parenthesis means lower probability of activity enhancement.

Glenn Hauser logs July 16, 2015


** ALASKA. 7355, July 16 at 1207, I try to hear KNLS` English hour, and do barely detect the KNLS theme music and something in English; at least no QRM on this, but incomparably weaker than e.g. CRI in Japanese on 7325 blocking Wantok Radio Light should it even be on (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BRAZIL. 11815, July 16 at 0510, Rádio Brasil Central must be off, as usually audible at this hour, like last night. Just a trace of crackle spur from 11780 RNA/RNB, likewise on 11745, but fundamental 11780 is splattering some 20 kHz above and below, QRMing fellow Brazilian 11765 SRDA. Replying to my logs of these yesterday, Wolfgang Büschel has the details, monitoring during the same hour today July 16:

``Distorted RNA/RNB heard around 0530 UT July 16 on 11780.006 kHz, 20 kHz wideband signal visible on SDR screen, and very tiny scratch crackling spurs on 11733-11750 and 11807-11822 kHz can be neglected, so low is the spur sound. Nearby heard RNZi DRM mode block on 11690 and AM 11725 kHz, as well as RRI ROU in DRM mode on 11800 kHz. wb`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 13850, July 16 at 0517, fair signal from R. Cairo, but open carrier/dead air (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GREECE. 9420, July 16 at 0507, ERA with horrible echo, a couple syllables apart at about equal levels, double audio feed as unseems double transmitters, no SAH. Can`t tell the language but probably not Greek during this multi-lingual news-capsule hour. Recheck at 0523 still echoing and unusable, also weakening well into the dayside.

9935, July 16 at 0509, ERA is also on this frequency, just barely modulated below the self-imposed whine made up of multiple closely spaced spur carriers. Usually by 0500 this transmitter has shifted to 11645 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 560, July 16 at 1100 UT, full ID for ``La Tremenda``, NA, i.e. XESRD, Santiago Papasquiaro, Durango, 10/1 kW per Cantú and IRCA, which shows sign-on at 1200, which would be correct in winter. Have heard it a few times before but not a regular (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 630, July 16 at 1103 UT, XEFB opening `Radar 63` morning news, from ``Grupo Radio México, Monterrey``. Fair but never a bigsig here; it`s one of few Mexicans with a direxional antenna. NRC Pattern Book shows at night, major lobe is due west; day pattern, probably on already, is broader to the southwest, and not a notch to the north, 10/10 kW. 

Its offspring, XEFB-TV has been a TV DX regular here for many years on channel 3 and then channel 2, ``TELEACTIVA`` tentatively seen as recently as June 17, 2015 before the digital transition (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 690, July 16 at 1114 UT, ``107.1 FM y 690 AM``, roughly southwest, QRM from another Spanish. By now it may be too late for DF or NL at lowband, and that FM/AM combo leads only to: XEMA, La Mejor, Fresnillo, Zacatecas, 50/2 kW, and likely already on day power. Enid SR today is 1126 UT, definitely latening past Solstice, currently at the rate of 5 minutes per week (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO [and non]. 1060v, July 16 at 1120 UT, off-frequency station from the south, 1127 detectable as Spanish, so presumably XERDO Reynosa etc., Tamaulipas. More notable is that I still am NOT hearing anything from 1060v KIJN, Farwell TX on the NM border: see U S A (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PAPUA NEW GUINEA [non]. 6075, July 16 at 1146, NBC relay via Shepparton, AUSTRALIA, with song we`ve heard before (played at least daily?), ``Spirit of the Games``, as if they are a transcendental experience for all; 1148 hilites of today`s games, anchor Kevin connecting to reporter Dora at the PNG PowerDome where there has been Taekwando, and also female lightweight boxing, then 1155 clips of that bout; I couldn`t listen to the carnage. Dora also gave schedules for upcoming games culminating with competitions for the Gold on Saturday`s finale (after which, any more SW relays?). Said today was a ``rest day`` in many cases (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 5020, July 16 at 1137, SIBC with music, poor with 5025 Cuba splash; carrier still on at 1212 and still splashed by Cuba, which is lasting incrementally longer with latening sunrises (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN [non]. 13800, July 16 at 0516, R. Dabanga via MADAGASCAR is good with no jamming audible; in fact it`s the SSOB altho likely to lose that status after 0527. Much weaker on // 11645 via VATICAN (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN SOUTH [non]. 11560, July 16 at 0513, fair signal in English with heavy African accent, seems to be discussion of food shortages, i.e. the Miraya FM relay from and back to South Sudan; per latest HFCC, it`s at 03-06 daily, 300 kW, 180 degrees from KCH = Kishinov, Moldova = Grigoriopol`, Pridneststrovye. One of the few target broadcasts at least partly in English (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1782 monitoring: confirmed first SW broadcast Thursday July 16 at 1130 on WRMI 9955, good but with lite pulse jamming; tnx a lot, Arnie! Jamming continued past 1200 with Prague, those dirty post-Commies! Also confirmed Thursday July 16 at 2100 on WRMI 7570, but just barely audible here in noise level. Next:

** U S A. 690, July 16 at 1124 UT open carrier, obviously from KGGF Coffeyville KS. They sometimes leave carrier on long after sign-off shortly after local midnite 0500 UT, and might have been all night, but this time was not on a few minutes earlier when I was picking up Zacatecas. Still OC past 1130 UT and not checked again until 1201 UT, when now it`s modulating programming. Wonder if KGGF is now intentionally not signing on until 7 am CT? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 720, July 16 at 1106 UT, ``104.1, La Picuda(?) está en el aire``, into music, CCI from another Spanish, slow SAH. At first I was thinking Mexican but no such correspondence fits; instead per
and http://www.nortenosa.com/ the 720/104.1 combo is San Antonio`s KSAH (COL: Universal City), ``Norteño`` brand which may or may not be current. 

104.1 is KSAH-FM, 100 kW licensed to Pearsall TX, as discussed before, rimshooting San Antonio. WTFDA database agrees on the Norteño identity, but shows format as sports, and 720 has also been listed with ESPN Deportes. Masculine norteño may be significant as a manly sports image, rather than norteña implying música which is feminine. Not at all sure of the Picuda non-ID, but reminds me of what was heard for a while on the 1120 Tulsa station, syndicated format from Los Ángeles, http://www.picudaradio.com/ (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1020, July 16 at 0535 UT, Spanish religion is way over near-local KOKP Perry OK sportstalk, which I can only hear by nulling KCKN Roswell NM, obviously powered back up to 50 kW, but NOT protecting KDKA. Relaying Radiovisión Cristiana, 1330 NYC, KCKN has been back for some weeks but never heard this strong before (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. I still am NOT hearing anything from 1060v KIJN, Farwell TX on the NM border, religion mostly in Spanish tho the calls obviously stand for In-Jesus`-Name, 10 kW daytimer which used to run all night, nor noticed around SR or SS either making we wonder if it`s on the air at all. It was also off-frequency enough to make a LAH. In case it got religion, official SR/SS times for July: 1145/0200 UT; August: 1215/0145 UT.

Aha, a new letter in the KIJN Correspondence File dated July 1, 2015:
notifying licensee that they are 25 months delinquent in payments to FCC, and application for renewal will be dismissed after 30 more days unless payment resolved. I guess this means they could still be on air till end of July, but maybe gave up already. License expired August 1, 2013! Evidently the FCC is unaware of their cheating into the nights, unless the delinquency is at least partly for an unfound fine (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn Hauser logs July 14-15, 2015


** ALASKA [and non]. 9920, July 15 at 1300, KNLS IS on poor signal, but atop another one making fast SAH. That would be FEBC, 100 kW due west from Iba, PHILIPPINES site at 1300-1330 daily in Koho, a minority language in Vietnam spoken by 200 kilopersons per EiBi. At 1301, KNLS Chinese announcement, more IS until opening at 1302. Furthermore by 1322 it`s weakening, but I can now hear Viet-Com whoop-whoop jamming as they don`t take kindly to farang Christians trying to convert their minorities from animism or whatever. 

Why in the world would KNLS go on same frequency as a fellow Christian broadcaster, which is jammed to boot? Both are in HFCC with a collision at 1300-1330. Or maybe they think it`s all OK, since CIRAF targets are different: 49 only = SE Asia for FEBC; 33SE and 44 = eastern third of China for KNLS. And as everyone knows, SW signals cannot penetrate CIRAF boundaries! I find that, e.g., 9925 and 9930 are now open, among many others in the area (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1782, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BRAZIL. 11815, July 15 at 0536, R. Brasil Central with music, poor signal, but just a trace of crackling spur from RNA/RNB 11780; likewise only a trace on open 11745; seems they have finally managed to attenuate, if not totally eliminate them, as the fundamental remains quite strong. Also seems whenever I hear RBC, it`s playing music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6165, July 15 at 0546, at first I think RHC is off this frequency tonight, but already weakened, the carrier is still there, and now much undermodulated to boot, just a trace. How about the other overkill of The Cuban Five? 6100 is very good, somewhat distorted; 6060 is suptorted; 6000 undermodulated but not distorted; 5040 slightly suptorted (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GREECE. 9420, July 15 at 0538, ERA is poor and not in Greek, but I can`t figure out what other language; 0541 music, 0543 another language. Ivo Ivanov reports they spend this hour in multilingual newscasts not including English; presumably the same on // 11645 which serves only to make a rumbling het against Dabanga via Vatican (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INTERNATIONAL VACUUM [non]. THE TINY TRAP --- Pluto mission is a golden opportunity for duh – unthinking journalists to call it ``tiny`` --- dwarf planet is OK, but how can anything more than a thousand miles across ever be called tiny? Latest goofs noted:

Pluto referred to twice as ``tiny`` in an AP Story via the Enid Eagle 
July 7.

On the National Geographic Channel special, before the flyby, UT July 15 at 0327 and 0340, Pluto is ``tiny``, twice.

On the CBS Evening News, July 15 at 2241 UT, Scott Pelley found it ``tiny``.

The PBS Nova special, UT July 16 at 01-02, did NOT call it ``tiny`` that I ever caught! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. Sporadic-E NTSC TVDX monitoring, UT July 14:
2201 on 2, fade-in and back out, shark(?) movie in Spanish
2245 on 2, CCI from two stations on same offset, big bar 
2325 on 2, old movie in Spanish, looks like monochrome era

July 15: signs of CCI on channel 2 most of the morning;
1702 on 2, fades in a bit, traces of audio too, Spanish
1713 on 2, Spanish ad for ropa

[and non]
1706 on 2, some Morse code tones in the mix! Maybe image from local repeater? Sounds like an automatic ID but too fast. Or bleed from 6 meters? Again at 1713.5 and 1720.5; after lunch also heard at 1756.0 and 1803.0 --- on a timer of about 7 minutes apart; most be local rather than by sporadic E (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NIGERIA [non]. 13775, July 15 at *0600, carrier on from Nigerian Armed Forces Radio via FRANCE, propagating again, but I doze off before hearing any modulation which may have started late again (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PAPUA NEW GUINEA [non]. 6075, July 15 at 1233, NBC relay with ad for auto import assistance, fair signal, and then sports results. I continue to think this is Shepparton, AUSTRALIA, not Brandon. In the British DX Club, Alan Pennington quotes Dan Ferguson that 12025 (at least) is indeed Shepparton, as we have maintained all along, contrary to ``official`` info from PNG and Australia, but Dan hasn`t told us, nor what his source is (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN [non]. 11645, July 15 at 0535, R. Dabanga stingers, singing IDs, rumbling lo-het QRM, presumably Greece`s out of whack transmitter vs VATICAN site (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [non]. 15630, July 14 at 1839 UT, desperate for a semi-interesting signal to accompany my nap, with the SW bands bearing little beyond gospel-huxtering US stations at midday, I find VOA here, fair signal with jingle, 1844 mentions voanews.com/amharic, and a bit of HOA music; 1900 news includes some clips in English, quick sign-off from Washington at 1930* without any YDD. It`s via Woofferton UK, 300 kW at 126 degrees, so directly off the back would be 306, close to USward. It switches to Tigrigna at 1900 weekdays, without my noticing. Little else is making it from Europe: Spain 15490 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1781 monitoring: confirmed on WRMI 9955, Wednesday July 15 after 1315; good reception. Also confirmed on webcast of WBCQ 7490, Wednesday July 15 at 2100.

** U S A. 840, July 14 at 1814 UT, Rush is barely audible; at first I thought it was another talker, but compared to KTOK 1000, the 840 station utters the same words a good many seconds behind. According to Rush` station list, it`s either KXNT in Las Vegas NV or WHAS in Louisville KY, both of which carry him live. Tho both 50 kW, KXNT is out of the question at much greater distance and extremely unfavorable N/S direxinal pattern. 

So once again I have WHAS at high noon, presumably residual skywave (maybe sporadic-E enhanced, a little-explored phenomenon on MW vis-à-vis VHF and even HF) and/or diminished D-layer absorption for some reason. Groundwave over the Ozarx at that distance, 1092 km = 678 miles, is less likely than skywave at midday, I think. The path from Louisville is mostly conductivity 8 and 4 millimhos/meter, while that from Chicago at about the same distance, and which can make it on groundwave 670 and 720 kHz, rates 15 and 8, enough to make a difference. 

This signal also fades down, and has a 6 Hz SAH on it. That`s likely from KTIC in West Point NE, which is a marginal groundwave signal over good conductivity of 15 and 30. Neither that C&W nor the fourth possibility, religious KWDF in Ball LA, would be on the `EIB` network (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)  

** U S A. 870, July 14 at 1812 UT, on caradio from quiet parking lot in central Enid, JBA signal here with intonation sounding like Spanish, quite different from the Vietnamese I was expecting, which is what I normally hear around SR/SS or sometimes at night vs WWL, i.e. KFJZ Fort Worth TX. However, Radio-Locator shows KFJZ now as Spanish Christian (only); is it still Vietnamese at all? No website. It also has a bump in daytime coverage toward the north. Having proven a few weeks ago that WWL New Orleans can be heard here over 600 miles away in the daytime, I`m also seeking it again, and that may well be the SAH of about 6 Hz against KFJZ (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1150, July 14 at 1808 UT on caradio at a quiet parking lot in central Enid, I`m getting three signals at midday; KSAL Salina KS mainly, with Rush, but also a slow SAH of about 0.6 Hz and a faster SAH. The second signal is no doubt 1 kW, KNED McAlester OK, which is barely present at this distance, 251 km = 156 miles, but what could the third be? Looking at the NRC Pattern Book on 1150, the next-closest is:

KOLJ Quanah TX, 530 watts C&W, near SW corner of OK, 288 km / 179 mi
and after that:
KRMS Osage Beach MO, 840 watts, News/talk, 505 km / 314 mi
Of course on the vertical caradio antenna, no DFing is possible. All these are non-direxional daytime. Altho slightly more powerful, the greater distance and lesser ground conductivity over the Ozarx makes KOLJ far more likely, over 30/15 g.c. BTW, 5 kW KSAL has a much better signal here at night with a lobe toward us than non-direxional daytime; but more QRM (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 06 - 12 July 2015

Solar activity began at moderate levels. Region 2381 (N14, L=074,
class/area Eko/550 on 08 Jul) produced a pair of M-class flares on
06 Jul; an M1/Sn at 06/0844 UTC and an M1/2n at 06/2040 UTC.
Activity was low from 07-11 Jul. Region 2381 produced the majority
of the low level C-class flares from 07-09 Jul while Region 2385
(N08, L=106, class/area Dao/110 on 11 Jul) produced the C-class
flares on 10-11 Jul. Solar activity decreased to very low levels on
12 Jul. Several filament eruptions were observed throughout the week
but none of them were on the Sun-Earth line.

No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at
normal to moderate levels for the majority of the period with the
exception of 09-10 Jul when high levels were reached due to effects
from a coronal hole high speed stream (CH HSS).

Geomagnetic field activity began the week at active levels due to
effects from a waning CH HSS on 06 Jul. Mostly quiet conditions were
observed from 07-09 Jul with the exception of isolated unsettled
periods on 07 and 09 Jul. Activity increased to active to minor
storm levels from 10-11 Jul due to effects from a recurrent positive
polarity CH HSS. Quiet to unsettled conditions finished out the
period on 12 Jul as CH HSS effects began to subside.

FORECAST OF SOLAR AND GEOMAGNETIC ACTIVITY 13 JULY - 08 AUGUST 2015

Solar activity is expected to be at very low levels with a chance
for C-class flares and a slight chance for M-class flares from 13-15
Jul. Very low to low activity is expected from 16-26 Jul after
Region 2381 rotates around the west limb. Activity is expected to
increase to low levels with a chance for M-class flares for the
remainder of the period as old Region 2378 (S15, L=084) and Region
2381 return to the visible disk.

No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is
expected to be at normal to moderate levels on 13 Jul. Moderate to
high levels are expected from 14-17 Jul following CH HSS effects.
Normal to moderate levels are expected to return from 18 Jul-02 Aug.
Moderate to high levels are expected again from 03-05 Aug followed
by a return to normal to moderate levels from 06-08 Aug.

Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at quiet to unsettled
levels on 13-14 Jul due to residual CH HSS effects. Mostly quiet
conditions are expected from 15-30 Jul. Quiet to active levels are
expected from 31 Jul-02 Aug with minor storm levels expected on 01
Aug due to a recurrent negative polarity CH HSS. Mostly quiet
conditions are expected to return from 03-05 Aug. Active to minor
storm conditions are expected from 06-07 Aug due to a positive
polarity CH HSS followed by quiet to unsettled conditions on 08 Aug
as effects subside.

Glenn Hauser logs July 13-14, 2015


** KOREA NORTH [and non]. 6250, July 14 at 1218, mainly noise jamming but some music modulation. Confusing situation here in Korean Radio War, per Aoki: Echo of Hope - or Voice of Hope from South to North is here at 0555-2400; Echo of Unification, from North to South is at 0400-0602, 1200-1402 and 2200-2402. NK Noise jamming is also on 6250 at 0355-2400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. Sporadic E analog TVDX opening continued from last report, July 13:
2322 on 2, CCI including Televisa-2 net star bug in lower right
2324 on 2, in addition LA VECINA = novela title temporarily in LL
2330 on 3, algo video here too
2334 on 2, still novela from 2 net

UT July 14:
0001 on 2, 3 and even audio on 4: weak CCI
0018 on 3, Spanish audio
0037 on 2, Televisa-5 net bug in LR, also at 0048, 0052; no more

1253 on 2, some Es CCI is already apparent; correlating with sporadic-E boost for 13845 WWCR and less so for 15825, which emits some dead air at 1304-1305

1357 on 2, still Es CCI, cowboy in white hat; 1358 it`s a live studio variety show, Spanish audio, suspected XHY-TV Mérida, Yucatán. At same time I am getting UHF DTV tropo DX from TX to KS; see USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PAPUA NEW GUINEA [non]. 12025, July 14 at 0529, good signal from NBC relay, promo for PMEA as heard several times before.

9860, July 14 at 0533, JBA signal from // NBC relay, but just enough to re-re-reconfirm that the 9860 signal is a slight satellite-delay behind 12025, i.e. two different sites, i.e. Shepparton and then Brandon, despite claims they are all ``Townsville``.

Awake July 14 at 0901, now`s my chance to compare the signal strengths of 12025 and regular R. Australia on 12085 --- except MUF has plunged, and neither is propagating now. 9860 is still audible fairly with game news, while RA 9580 is at usual VG level, having just opened with token news in French until ``à demain`` at 0905 back to anglais.

At 1215, RA on 12085 is still much weaker than usual, but 9580 is VG. 

6075, July 14 at 1220, NBC relay is fair, interview mixed with crowd noise (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 5020, JBA July 14 at 1210, SIBC is still on and modulating with some music, presumably Wantok FM relay (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN [non]. 13800, July 14 at 0526, R. Dabanga via MADAGASCAR, fair signal, no carrier/het jamming audible on hi side. No big clash in usual site switch overlap with VATICAN, but the latter audio is JBA underneath at 0527, and uncovered very poor at 0527:20* when Mad cuts off. Before 0528, Madagascar carriers are up both on 13765 for Vatican relay and 13840 for Japan relay.

11645, July 14 at 0531, Dabanga stingers via VATICAN, poor, and the Sudanese tone jammer is *still* barely audible on 11650, not a problem (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5830, July 14 at 0538, WTWW-1 with plug for an SFAW meeting of Christian men coming up, inviting applications for possible approval, mentioning days of week, but dates edited out, since this was probably recorded a decade ago. Strangely, there is a weaker echo of all this audio two seconds after first heard; some kind of looping in the playback of very, very stale material, but sexism and racism are forever, they assume (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. 5890, July 14 at 0541, WWCR-4 is off the air instead of Brother HySTAIRical; audiblizing weak Cuban pulse jamming, which is *still* here, YEARS after VOA Spanish self-destructed, and was never on the 5890 air anyway at this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. Morning of July 14, Bill Hepburn`s tropo maps show mostly over Kansas, but bandscan gets first decode from north TX as favored by my antenna pointing, all times UT:

1351 on RF30, decode as 29-1 KMPX, and at 1352 with Estrella TV bug in LR (like we get from KTUZ RF 29 as 48-1, KOCY OKC). That chex in W9WI.com for the megawatt KMPX in Decatur TX (NW of Fort Worth). Soon gone

1352 on RF29, meanwhile, KTUZ is not decoding no doubt because of CCI, which would be KTXA, another megawatt in Fort Worth; a few minutes later, KTUZ reappears (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
