much BAD feed line Delhi broadcasting house to Bangalore TX center.

"shame on the AIR technician crew"
Glenn's slogan: 'Something's always wrong at AIR technicians ....'

there is a huge difference between AIR India technical quality
and its excellent work of northern neighbour RTC China mainland,

Glenn Hauser logs January 2-3, 2022

** CANADA. 351 MCW kHz, Jan 3 at 0422 UT, dash and YKQ, 500 watt NDB at Fort Rupert / Waskaganish, Québec. I was tuned to 350 USB, another check for RG in OKC, still AWOL. This is at the southern tip of James Bay near the Ontario border (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA [non]. 11790, Mon Jan 3 at 1607, Horn-of-Africish song, talk mentions Iesus Christ, S7/S9. It`s Bible Voice in Oromo via Nauen, GERMANY, per Aoki Sun/Mon/Tue only with other Ethiopian languages in a convoluted schedule until 1800. What a shame Canada`s #1 SW voice to the world are gospel huxters instead of RCI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non?]. 5040, Jan 3 at 0432, S7-S9 open carrier, RHC? Too weak unless something be drastically wrong; too strong and too early to be Vanuatu. 5025 Rebelde is also much weaker than usual. Something`s always wrong? at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9650, Jan 3 at 0450, RHC Spanish, S9+20, overmodulated & distorted, modulation cutting out. This is the Antillas service supposed to switch from 9710 at 0000. // always weaker 9535 for C America. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, Jan 3 at 0452, RHC English here instead of alt. 6165, VG S9+30 and good modulation; propaganda claiming Cuba is ``not on its knees``, and the ``economy is viable``. Time for another link to The Other Side, altho not exactly the same subject:

``Like the Prosecutor's Office, Cuban judges turn their backs on justice in the trials against 11-J protesters --- They have not challenged the lack of arguments to support the crime of sedition, nor the absence of impartial witnesses against the accused. Lucía Alfonso Mirabal, La Habana 03 Ene 2022 - 16:29 CET`` https://diariodecuba.com/derechos-humanos/1641223798_36544.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 1670+, Jan 3 at 0720, music making a low audible heterodyne on the plus side of talk from WOZN Wisconsin, which had been the dominant 1670 here, surely the new, Mexican as Terry Krueger, Niceville FL, has just measured: ``1670.05 MEXICO XEFCR Reynosa, Tamaulipas 0718 12/23/21 Still here and on the high side with nonstop pop oldies``. Otherwise I have a tough time getting Mexican X-banders (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 350 MCW kHz, January 3 at 1555, RG, NDB at OKC is still off the air. Guess flights into/outof Will Rogers World Airport don`t really need it. Other Okies remain off for a long time: 255 SW Stillwater, and 341 EI Enid (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11815v, Jan 3 at 1606 UT, VOT Turkish is strong enough to audiblize squeal on transmitter, much like WEWN; could it be the same model? Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2119 monitoring: confirmed Sunday January 2 at 2101 on IRRS SW vis AM Italia, 918 kHz, S9+19 into nearby Noale SDR, atop CCI likely Madrid; following 2100 full IRRS ID with address.

Also confirmed Sun Jan 2 at 2330 on WRMIs: 9955 S9 into Maryland SDR, no jamming audible; and 5950 at S9/+10.

Also confirmed UT Monday January 3 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG S9+10/15 into Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday January 3 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, S9/+5 into Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed UT Mon Jan 3 after 0230 on WRN North America webcast.

Also confirmed UT Mon Jan 3 at 0402 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160, -57 Hz into Missouri remote = 6159.943, VP signal after a coughing fit from 0358 by JL?, 0402 ID. Next:

** U S A. 5085, Jan 3 at 0433, WTWW-2 is unusually off this early, and along with it the parasitic spurs circa 5072 & 5097. Then I see this posted at 0415:

``[WOR] 5085 transmitter problems --- Not sure whether anyone else noticed, but 5085 suddenly dropped off the air sometime about an hour ago (now 0413). Clearly a fault of some sort. Just now, I'm catching microsecond bursts of speech, so they're trying to fix things at WTWW. I was enjoying their music program while working in the shack. Hope they make it back soon! 73, Walt Salmaniw, Victoria, BC`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 3360, UT Mon Jan 3 at 0255, I go to the Athens GA remote which is still tuned for me to 3360, but NF from WWRB is off already. Did not get it reconfirmed at all this weekend. Span seems shorter on Sunday night than Saturday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9385, Jan 3 at 0448, S4/5 of dead air, must be WEWN English (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1030, Jan 3 at 1546 UT, YL in Spanish. Got to be KCTA Corpus Christi TX, I thought, until finding one other possibility in NRC AM Log, WGSP 50 KW Memphis TN. And KCTA program schedule shows English at this time, in fact very little Spanish: Sat 19-21 UT only. https://kctaradio.com/blog/program-schedule/ BTW, KCTA stands for Know Christ The Answer, a back-formation? Maybe that`s why so little Spanish, hard to come up with a KCTA slogan; any ideas? Korpus Cristi Tejas Abla? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130, Jan 3 at 1550 UT, KLEY Wellington KS still dead-airing, for the record (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1200, Jan 3 at 0722 UT, the original ``Clear Channel`` station, WOAI San Antonio with C2CAM reincarnation nonsense has severe QRM from a gospel huxter in English, sometimes overriding WOAI. Hard to separate by nulling, since this has to be KFNW West Fargo ND, almost exactly opposite direxions from here. U4 50/13 kW, night pattern supposed to be totally northward; day pattern with lesser lobe to the south. At times, WOAI also gets battered by WRTO Chicago but not now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VATICAN. Re: ``13830, Jan 2 at 1527, S Asian? song, S9/+10, announcement and 1528 VR IS, 1530 ID ``Ye ---`` mentions Ethiopia. This is VR Amharic at 1530-1600 from SMG site, but no other language from it or anywhere is scheduled before 1530. Remarkable signal, about the same as 13820 Martí, another example of VR capability to serve far from its intended targets``

I bet what I heard at first 1527 was VR in Malayalam, frequency switching misaligned. Per WRTH 2022, that`s supposed to be on 7320 & 9595 both Tinang, USAGM Philippines, violating Separation of Church & State, at 1510-1530, so immediately preceding on program feed line (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Jan 3 at 0427, perfunctory and not digging to the usual depth, finds stronger ones on 612, 711, 882, 1053, 1107, 1215. 612 surely not the just-reactivated only MW from Jordan, 100 kW, but the 300 kW from Morocco, like 711 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 600, Jan 3 at 1552 UT, sports talk and ad in skywave remnant; daytime groundwave WMT IA is only a trace at best. ESPNs are KROD El Paso TX and KVNA Flagstaff AZ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 620, Jan 3 at 1543 UT, Spanish from KTNO The Metroplex TX unusually in daytime has CCI from algo making a fast SAH maybe 10 Hz. Skywave remnant, also showing up on many other frequencies. Two most likely/closest/westward sources are: KJOL Grand Junxion CO, and KTAR Phoenix AZ, both 5 kW ND. Will MWoffsets help? As usual, no: CO not measured, AZ/TX only 0.7 Hz apart. Next candidates, KMNS IA and WJDX MS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
27 December - 02 January 2022

Solar activity was at very low to moderate levels. Moderate levels
were observed on 28 Dec due to an M1 flare at 0401 UTC and an M1/Sf
at 1611 UTC from Region 2918 (N19, L=211, Class/area Dki/280 on 25
Dec). Region 2918 also produced another M1 flare at 0730 UTC on 01
Jan as it was rotating off the NW limb. The largest region on the
disk was Region 2916 (S15, L=189, class/area Ekc/480 on 27 Dec) and
was responsible for 2 M-class flares on 21 Dec, but only managed 1
C-class flare this reporting period. No Earth-directed CMEs were
observed.

No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit only
reached high levels on 27 Dec with a peak flux of 3,210 pfu observed
at 27/1325 UTC. The rest of the period, the electron flux was at
normal to moderate levels.

Geomagnetic field activity ranged from quiet to active levels. The
period began with a weak positive polarity coronal hole high speed
stream (CH HSS) that began after 27/0833 UTC. Total field reached a
maximum of 15 nT at 27/1357 UTC followed by a maximum solar wind
speed of 538 km/s at 28/1224 UTC. The geomagnetic field responded
with quiet to active levels on 27 Dec followed by quiet to unsettled
levels on 28 Dec. On 29 Dec, a late enhancement in total field
reaching 21 nT at 30/0036 UTC was followed by a brief increase in
solar wind speed to 515 km/s. The geomagnetic response was quiet to
unsettled on 29-30 Dec. Solar wind conditions began to wane on 31
Dec with only quiet levels observed. On 01-02 Dec another positive
polarity CH HSS was observed beginning at approximately 01/0115 UTC.
Total field increased to around 10 nT while the solar wind increased
to near 530 km/s by 01/0900 UTC. Solar wind speed remained enhanced
through the rest of the period. The geomagnetic field responded with
quiet to active levels on 01 Jan followed by quiet to unsettled
levels on 02 Jan.

Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
03 January - 29 January 2022

Solar activity is expected to be at very low to low levels through
15 Jan. There is a slight chance for M-class flares (R1-R2,
Minor-Moderate) on 16-29 Jan with the return of old Regions 2916 and
2918.

No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is
expected to reach high levels on 19-23 Jan due to recurrent CH HSS
influence.

Geomagnetic field activity is expected to reach unsettled levels on
03, 11-12, 15-18, 23-26, and 28-29 Jan and reach active levels on 16
Jan due to recurrent CH HSS activity.

La Personalità del 2021 a Radio Romania Internazionale

Radio Romania Internazionale ha continuato il tradizionale sondaggio rivolto ai suoi ascoltatori e agli utenti di Internet e reti sociali, per decidere quali delle personalità del presente hanno segnato di più, in senso positivo, l'andamento dell'umanità nel 2021.

Come anche lo scorso anno, anche questa volta « Le Personalità del 2021 » , e non solo una, sono stati designati gli operatori sanitari dell’intero mondo, impegnati in prima linea nella lotta alla pandemia, e tutti gli sviluppatori di vaccini anti-COVID-19, con menzioni speciali per i medici tedeschi e i fondatori dei laboratori BioNTech, Uğur Şahin e Özlem Türeci, noti per aver sviluppato uno dei sieri, come anche per la biochimica ungherese Katalin Karikó, per il suo contributo allo sviluppo della tecnologia dell’RNA messaggero, che sta alla base di alcuni vaccini contro il nuovo coronavirus.  Tra gli ascoltatori che li hanno proposti come « Personalità del 2021 a Radio Romania Internazionale » si annoverano Michael Willruth e Siegbert Gerhard dalla Germania, Norihiko Ide dal Giappone, Guido Panebianco e Paolo Morandotti dall’Italia, David Iurescia dall’Argentina, Paul Jamet dalla Francia.

Nominati anche i giornalisti e i conduttori che hanno fornito delle informazioni reali dall’inizio della pandemia, l’anestesista Annalisa Malara dell'ospedale di Codogno, che ha diagnosticato il primo caso di COVID-19 in Italia, e il chirurgo Marco Stabile dell'ospedale di Castel San Giovanni (Piacenza), il quale ha scoperto che l'eparina riduce i casi di trombosi, guarendo e salvando pazienti.

Tra le nomination di leader politici si sono annoverati l’ex cancelliera tedesca Angela Merkel, il presidente degli USA, Joe Biden, il presidente russo Vladimir Putin, la presidente della Commissione Europea, Ursula von der Leyen, l’ambasciatore uscente di Romania in Italia, George Bologan. Nominata anche la Conferenza delle Nazioni Unite sui cambiamenti climatici COP26.

Sempre come Personalità dell’anno a Radio Romania Internazionale sono stati proposti l’imprenditore americano Jeff Bezos, la rivelazione del tennis mondiale femminile Emma Răducanu, l’Associazione umanitaria «Auvergne pour un enfant», lo YouTuber somalo AboFlah, la squadra di calcio dell’Algeria, vincitrice della Coppa Araba FIFA 2021 o i medici che hanno salvato il calciatore danese Christian Eriksen dopo il malore subito sul campo a giugno.

Radio Mogadiscio riprende il notiziario in italiano, mezz’ora ogni giorno alle 14:30 locali

Nel primo giorno del 2022, è stato firmato un protocollo d’intesa tra il Ministero dell’Informazione, della Cultura e del Turismo del Governo Federale e l’Ambasciata d’Italia in Somalia.

L’accordo per riportare Radio Mogadiscio alla trasmissione quotidiana in italiano è stato ufficialmente aperto dal Direttore Generale del Ministero, Sig. Abdullahi Hayir Duale, dopo una breve cerimonia tenutasi al Ministero dell’Informazione.

All’evento hanno partecipato alcuni direttori dipartimentali del ministero, tra cui il direttore di Radio Mogadiscio Mohamed Kafi Sheikh Abukar e altri funzionari.

Ali Hussein Yassin Koraado e Abdulkadir Omar Mohamud sono i presentatori di questo programma, che andrà in onda dalle 14:30 alle 15:00, ora del Corno d’Africa.

Radio Mogadiscio, fondata nel 1951 nove anni prima dell’indipendenza della Somalia, ha profondi legami con il governo italiano.

Il Ministero dell’Informazione, della Cultura e del Turismo della Somalia ha ora rinnovato il suo accordo con Radio Mogadiscio e il governo italiano, amico intimo del popolo e del governo somalo.

Potete ascoltare qui, in italiano, la presentazione del programma avvenuta l'1 gennaio:

Nei trenta minuti a loro disposizione, i due presentatori affronteranno diversi temi, divisi in rubriche: all’inizio un breve notiziario dall’interno e dagli esteri, poi una breve lezione di italiano per parlanti somalo con alcune frasi tradotte e commentate, di seguito la musica (che non mancherà di un repertorio di classici italiani anni ’60 e ’70) e infine le notizie sportive.

Sarà possibile seguire la trasmissione tramite le dirette sul sito dell’emittente ogni giorno alle 14.30 locali (in questo momento corrispondenti alle 12.30 italiane).

Nel frattempo, vi proponiamo un vecchio filmato della trasmissione in lingua italiana, con un’intervista a uno dei conduttori dell’epoca, i primi anni ’80. Speriamo di cuore che questo sia un primo passo per progetti sempre più grandi, perché l’italiano sia uno degli strumenti di pace e sviluppo al servizio del popolo somalo. (italofonia.info)

The Tank, la radio nel braccio della morte

Appena supero la chiesa di East Tempe, alla periferia di Livingston, nel Texas, dalla mia radio esce il suono delle risate finte. Vengono da Martin, una sitcom televisiva vecchia di tre decenni. L’umorismo di questi fittizi abitanti di Detroit si manifesta come un crepitio incongruo in uscita dagli altoparlanti della mia auto, mentre percorro una tortuosa strada di campagna.

Quando le risate si placano, la leggera cadenza del sud di un dj chiamato Megamind interviene per introdurre il segmento successivo.

“Ve lo portiamo noi, come un servizio in camera”, dice, con una frase caratteristica che ha un sapore ironico: come la maggior parte dei suoi ascoltatori, Megamind non ha una stanza. Vive infatti su una branda di metallo in un carcere di massima sicurezza, e il suo vero nome è Ramy Hozaifeh. Gli uomini rinchiusi nella prigione Allan B. Polunsky, lo conoscono soprattutto come una delle voci abituali sulla modulazione di frequenza dei 106.5 di The Tank, la stazione radio della prigione.

La voce della comunità detenuta
The Tank ha un segnale così debole che puoi sentirla solo per un minuto o due dopo aver lasciato il parcheggio. Ma la programmazione è abbondante e varia come in una qualsiasi radio commerciale del mondo esterno, con trasmissioni che vanno dall’heavy metal al miglioramento personale. È tutto registrato in uno studio nascosto nel cuore della prigione e pieno di attrezzature, in gran parte donate da chiese e gruppi religiosi. Non ha la fama o il seguito del podcast Ear hustle della prigione di San Quentin, ma The Tank permette agli uomini che si trovano in uno dei più duri bracci della morte del paese di avere una voce che si diffonde oltre le loro celle. Solitamente – proprio come nella maggior parte delle carceri – i detenuti di Polunsky non sono autorizzati a scriversi delle lettere tra loro. Ma per la stazione radio il direttore ha fatto un’eccezione, permettendogli di trasmettere saggi e poesie ai cappellani del personale, affinché li consegnino a Hozaifeh e ai suoi colleghi dj. Questo concede agli uomini più isolati del Texas la rara possibilità di partecipare alla più vasta comunità della prigione.

Ogni mattina Hozaifeh trasmette un episodio di Martin o Sanford and son, due sitcom che hanno ancora senso per ascoltatori che non possono vedere l’azione perché chiusi in una cella senza televisione. “Puoi ascoltare le loro battute”, dice. “Anche senza vedere assolutamente niente”.

Nei primi giorni della pandemia ha aiutato i detenuti di tutto il complesso, anche quelli in isolamento, a capire cosa stava succedendo

Come nella maggior parte delle prigioni, la vita in questo carcere che ospita tremila uomini – un’ora e mezza di strada a nord di Houston – è molto cupa, soprattutto per i detenuti delle sezioni di massima sicurezza, che trascorrono la maggior parte del loro tempo in isolamento. Tra loro ci sono centinaia di uomini tenuti in isolamento perché considerati pericolosi o in pericolo, e anche quasi duecento uomini nel braccio della morte, che da anni vivono separati dal resto della popolazione carceraria. Non possono andare in mensa, nella cappella o nel cortile principale, e perlopiù vedono i loro compagni di prigione solo di sfuggita. Per esempio quando gli inservienti passano lo straccio o distribuiscono gli asciugamani. Non possono frequentare corsi o lavorare in prigione, e non possiedono tablet o televisori. Ma hanno delle radio.

Ho saputo della stazione radio da John Henry Ramirez, un uomo nel braccio della morte. Mancava una settimana alla sua esecuzione e avevo potuto incontrarlo per parlare della sua richiesta alla direzione della prigione di permettere al suo pastore battista di tenergli la mano nel momento in cui sarebbe morto. Aveva risposto alle mie domande sulla sua fede e sulla paura della morte, ma ciò di cui voleva davvero parlarmi era la stazione radio. “Quando arrivi al parcheggio, basta semplicemente che ti sintonizzi e sentirai”, mi aveva detto. Una volta uscita, mi aveva spiegato, potevo ascoltare il notiziario delle 12 con il menù del giorno. “È diventata una parte fondamentale di Polunsky”, aveva aggiunto. “Tutti ne parlano”.

Le trasmissioni della radio sono cominciate all’inizio del 2020, quando il direttore Daniel Dickerson è arrivato a Polunsky e alcuni detenuti gli hanno chiesto il permesso di creare una loro radio.

Nei 24 anni di lavoro per il sistema carcerario del Texas aveva ricevuto ogni tipo di domande, ma questa era la prima del genere. Eppure ha deciso di ascoltarli. “Quando mi hanno spiegato la cosa e come sarebbe stata organizzata – tutto naturalmente è preregistrato e può quindi essere esaminato e rivisto – non sembrava una cattiva idea”, dice Dickerson.

Ha pensato che la stazione radio avrebbe potuto dare ai detenuti qualcosa di cui occuparsi e con cui entrare in relazione. Soprattutto considerando che la prigione era troppo a corto di personale per ampliare i suoi programmi in altro modo. E nei primi giorni della pandemia, racconta Dickerson, è stata anche un ottimo modo per aiutare i detenuti di tutto il complesso, anche quelli che non potevano lasciare le loro celle, a capire cosa stava succedendo. “Non tutti hanno un televisore, ma quasi tutti hanno una radio”, spiega Dickerson. “E chiunque sia stato all’interno di una prigione sa che alcuni alzeranno il volume della radio abbastanza anche per chi non ne ha una”.

La prima volta che si è seduto nel suo ufficio e l’ha ascoltata, non si è pentito. “È come una piccola stazione radio locale della prigione”, mi dice con uno strano sorriso. “E se vai in giro ti accorgi di come cambia le persone”.

Per certi versi The Tank è come un centro sociale per uomini che non possono mai uscire dalle loro celle

Anche se sono solo di passaggio, me ne accorgo anche io. Solitamente quando intervisto degli uomini nel braccio della morte, parliamo del loro caso, della data della loro esecuzione, oppure delle condizioni in cui vivono. Ma adesso parlano del palinsesto che conoscono a memoria. La domenica è il turno di Smooth grove, un programma rhythm and blues. Il lunedì rap e il martedì musica latinoamericana. Una serata è dedicata al programma di teorie del complotto di Megamind, ispirato alla trasmissione radio Coast to coast AM, e un’altra alla musica alternativa.

“Il mio programma preferito è quello dedicato all’heavy metal”, mi aveva detto Ramirez. Si chiama Tales from the pit, e i detenuti che lo conducono si fanno chiamare pit chief e chiamano i loro ascoltatori pit crew. Ultimamente hanno cominciato a chiamare pit chief anche Ramirez, perché gli ha scritto così tante volte da diventare parte della trasmissione.

Per certi versi The Tank è come un centro sociale per uomini che non possono mai uscire dalle loro celle. Oltre alla musica e agli annunci quotidiani, i dj trasmettono notizie e colonne sonore di film (il loro genere preferito sono le commedie romantiche, mi confida Hozaifeh, mentre “odiano profondamente i film ambientati in carcere”).

Ci sono anche funzioni religiose, una trasmissione rap di contenuto biblico, programmi di prevenzione dei suicidi e informazioni dal braccio della morte. A volte gli uomini s’intervistano a vicenda, e una volta hanno intervistato il direttore. Quando sono venuta in visita a ottobre, hanno intervistato anche me.

Recuperare l’umanità
Ero rimasta talmente colpita dall’entusiasmo di Ramirez durante la nostra conversazione che volevo tornare per vedere la stazione radio. Il direttore mi ha accompagnato attraverso un labirinto di passaggi e corridoi prima di arrivare a una piccola stanza sepolta all’interno della struttura. Dall’esterno sembrava la porta di un armadio, ma all’interno lo spazio era pieno di apparecchiature audio e computer. A eccezione dell’uniforme bianca da detenuto del dj, poteva benissimo essere l’interno di un qualsiasi piccolo studio, in qualsiasi parte del mondo esterno.

Mentre Hozaifeh trasmetteva la musica, abbiamo parlato un po’ della mia vita: come ero finita io stessa in prigione e come sono diventata poi una giornalista. Dato che mi occupo delle prigioni in Texas da diverso tempo molti dei ragazzi sapevano già queste cose su di me, e alcuni avevano inviato in anticipo delle domande più particolari: cosa preferivi prendere allo spaccio del carcere? Ti piacciono Madonna, i Pearl Jam o i Led Zeppelin? Pizza, bistecca o tofu?

Dalle loro celle e brande, sono gli uomini di Polunsky a dirigere l’intervista. È un modo improbabile di assumere un certo controllo all’interno del mondo fortemente regolamentato della prigione, e di sentire le loro stesse parole messe in onda da una radio gestita da loro stessi e per loro stessi.

È anche questo ad attirare Jedidiah Murphy, che da vent’anni si trova nel braccio della morte. Da quando ha cominciato ad ascoltare The Tank, Murphy partecipa regolarmente al programma sulle teorie del complotto di Megamind. L’eccentrico contenuto del programma rispecchia i suoi interessi, ma la cosa che gli piace di più è il pubblico, che non lo giudica per il suo passato, perché ha a sua volta un passato simile. “Avere delle persone in prigione che si disinteressano totalmente della condanna o della situazione, è una cosa inedita per molti di noi”, mi ha scritto. “È un programma gestito da detenuti, per detenuti”.

I ragazzi che gestiscono la stazione radio capiscono quanto sia importante tutto questo. Non sono mai stati nel braccio della morte, ma molti di loro – incluso Hozaifeh – sono stati in isolamento, e sanno quanto la costante solitudine possa diventare straniante. “Non sai più se esisti”, dice Hozaifeh. “È come se ti togliesse la tua umanità, e penso che la radio ce l’abbia restituita”.

Ultime parole
A settembre, a pochi giorni dalla prevista data d’esecuzione di Ramirez – condannato per l’uccisione del commesso di un negozio, nel 2004 – i ragazzi che gestiscono la trasmissione heavy metal hanno curato una scaletta per lui e trasmesso messaggi registrati dai suoi amici all’interno del carcere e dai sostenitori esterni. Nella trasmissione rap sono state lette le lettere di ascoltatori che hanno raccontato in che modo il suo contributo alla radio abbia toccato le loro vite.

Come al solito, lui si è sintonizzato, ma questa volta ha potuto rispondere con la sua voce. Il giorno prima della prevista esecuzione capitale di Ramirez, il direttore ha preso una decisione senza precedenti: ha lasciato che il condannato andasse in chiesa. Si trattava di una funzione speciale all’esterno, e c’era una recinzione spinata tra Ramirez e il coro dei detenuti ordinari del carcere, ma era comunque una prima volta per il braccio della morte. In seguito The Tank ha trasmesso i passaggi più importanti della funzione a beneficio di tutta la prigione.

Ramirez ha parlato dei suoi rimpianti e ha raccontato di aver pianto quando ha visto sua madre allontanarsi dopo la sua ultima visita. Ma ha anche parlato della stazione radio, e di come questa gli abbia dato un’ultima possibilità di essere parte di una comunità.

“Non so se capite davvero quanto sia importante, perché siete detenuti ordinari”, ha detto agli altri compagni di prigione. “Vedete come siete tutti vicini l’uno all’altro? Ve ne state tranquilli, andate in giro, vi toccate l’un l’altro. Noi non abbiamo niente di tutto questo. Voi avete la comunità. Noi siamo soli, siamo totalmente da soli”.

Di lì a poco avrebbe raggiunto un altro luogo da solo, percorrendo gli ultimi passi verso la morte in una stanza sterile a un’ora di distanza, a Huntsville. “Capite quanto sia importante?”, ha chiesto. “Con tutto quello che ho tolto al mondo, tutto il male che ho fatto, tutte le persone che ho ferito… Tutto quell’egoismo strafottente di quando ero un ragazzino idiota, ora devo pagare per tutto questo, da uomo”.

Mentre parlava, gli uomini ascoltavano silenziosi.

“Per anni, l’unica cosa che ho potuto fare è stato fare questo per tutti gli altri”, ha continuato Ramirez, raccontando di come abbia riversato tutte le sue energie nella stazione radio, nella speranza di poter lasciare qualcosa di buono e che aiutasse altre persone.

“Perché è importante per me, amico, è importante per me ed è l’unica cosa che possa fare. Sono solo. Sono solo in quella cella. Non posso fare altro che darvi le mie parole”.

L’indomani – la notte in cui doveva essere ucciso – la corte suprema degli Stati Uniti ha deciso di accogliere il suo appello, e di sospendere l’esecuzione. Oggi, mentre aspetta che i giudici si pronuncino, Ramirez è di nuovo nel braccio e si sintonizza di nuovo su The Tank, inviando a Megamind i suoi pensieri e contributi via posta.

Quando sono uscita dalla mia visita di ottobre alla stazione radio, sono andata nella direzione opposta a quella da cui ero arrivata, pensando a Ramirez e Hozaifeh e alla piccola stanza piena di apparecchiature audio. Ho sintonizzato la mia radio sui 106.5 e ho ascoltato Megamind che incoraggiava i suoi ascoltatori, parlando di fede e gratitudine, e di come dare un senso alla vita dietro le sbarre. Subito dopo aver superato un negozio della catena Dollar General, la sua voce ha cominciato a svanire, sostituita dalle parole piene d’interferenze di una lontana canzone d’amore.

I 162 kHz di Allouis, la buffonata in onde lunghe del nuovo millennio

TRADUZIONE AUTOMATICA DI GOOGLE, DA INTERPRETARE....

La stazione FFH doveva essere sostituita.
Le strutture CNET di Saint-Assise hanno assicurato la diffusione del segnale orario tramite il trasmettitore FFH su 2,5 MHz. La trasmissione era instabile a causa di disturbi a onde corte e non soddisfaceva più i criteri dell'epoca.
L'ideale sarebbe stato installare un trasmettitore VLF specifico di poche decine di kilowatt, come la Germania con la sua stazione DCF77 a Mainflingen.
Un'altra soluzione: utilizzare le installazioni con l'esercito. Questa è la soluzione adottata dall'URSS, i cui trasmettitori VLF per i collegamenti con i sottomarini trasmettono i segnali orari.
 
Una soluzione innovativa ed economica.
Invece di costruire un piccolo trasmettitore o utilizzare le antenne della marina francese a Saint-Assise, la Francia ha preferito utilizzare il trasmettitore di Radio France ad Allouis.
Siamo nel 1972... Cosa c'è di più normale di caricare il trasmettitore della radio di stato con questa missione?
È con questo spirito che il CNET ha proposto di trasmettere un secondo segnale in modulazione di fase, non udibile dagli ascoltatori, che ha permesso di sincronizzare tutti gli orologi in Francia.
 
1977, inizia il servizio regolare.
Nello spirito del tempo, questo non costava nulla, poiché il trasmettitore veniva utilizzato per la trasmissione.
La fine dell'ORTF non ha cambiato il progetto: TDF ha addebitato a Radio France i costi di noleggio del trasmettitore, la trasmissione del segnale orario non doveva costare nulla.
Dal 2004, la CFHM: Camera francese dell'orologeria e della microtecnologia ha finanziato e in parte assicurato la manutenzione del proprio sistema e la consegna al trasmettitore, ma non la distribuzione.
Andava tutto bene, fino al giorno in cui Radio France fu costretta a risparmiare. Le onde lunghe sono essenziali? In tal caso, perché dover sostenere tutti i costi operativi del trasmettitore Allouis quando utilizza un servizio e l'altro viene offerto agli orologiai?
Le trattative non hanno avuto successo e Radio France ha finito per interrompere le sue trasmissioni il 31 dicembre 2016.
 
Il più economico diventa il più costoso.
Dal 1áµ ‰ ʳ gennaio 2017, TDF è stata obbligata a continuare a far funzionare il trasmettitore per garantire un servizio gratuito. Se il trasmettitore fosse fermo, diverse migliaia di orologi indicherebbero orari fantasiosi: stazione, aeroporto, metro, orologi e campane delle chiese, parchimetri, tanti siti strategici, ma anche dispositivi privati ​​come le radiosveglie. In totale, quasi 300.000 potenziali vittime.
TDF è una società privata, non possiamo obbligarla a sostenere i costi.
Il governo aveva incaricato l'ANFR di garantire la continuità della trasmissione di questo segnale orario, dal 1áµ ‰ ʳ gennaio 2017, per un periodo di un anno. La missione è stata poi affidata provvisoriamente nel 2018 alla Direzione Generale delle Imprese (DGE). La ripresa della gestione del segnale orario da parte dell'ANFR ha avuto efficacia dal 1áµ ‰ ʳ gennaio 2019 . Ora è l'ANFR a pagare il conto.

Trova un altro piccione.
Abbiamo cercato di trovare un editore di servizi radiofonici. Nel dicembre 2016 il CSA ha lanciato un invito a manifestare interesse per la diffusione di un servizio radiofonico sulla frequenza 162 kHz. Tale chiamata precisava l'obbligo di trasmettere il segnale orario. Tuttavia, il CSA ha precisato che la potenza effettiva irradiata del segnale emesso sulla frequenza 162 kHz sarà a priori vincolata dalla potenza del segnale temporale, che potrebbe essere oggetto di ottimizzazione.
A parte una stazione che ha trovato un magnifico pesce d'aprile in questa richiesta, nessuna emittente seria ha risposto all'offerta.

È ora di fare i conti.
Per quasi 3 anni sono stati consumati 1100 kWh per un servizio che avrebbe potuto essere fornito da un trasmettitore VLF di soli 50 kWh! Si tratta di un consumo 22 volte superiore a quello del trasmettitore Mainflingen che fornisce lo stesso servizio. Una fattura per la quale TDF non specifica l'importo: personale, funzionamento, energia, nonché manutenzione e ammortamento.
Tecnicamente è impossibile invertire una scelta che risale agli anni '70!
 
Riduzione di potenza?
Solo quest'estate, vale a dire con quasi due anni e mezzo di ritardo, l'ANFR ha effettuato dei test volti ad ottimizzare la potenza di trasmissione del segnale. Il la potenza del segnale è stata ridotta a 800 kW dal 2 al 4 luglio 2019. L'ANFR non ha riscontrato grossi problemi di ricezione.
Questo senza considerare che la potenza minima era stata fissata dagli studi CNET a 600 kW.
Ora la corrente è tornata al consumo di una città di 5.000 abitanti.
La pratica procedeva lentamente... Bisogna dire che il gioco di prestigio tra ANFR, DGE e ritorno in ANFR non ha aiutato le cose.
 
Non puoi vedere la fine del tunnel.
L'arresto non è un'opzione, dato il numero di utenti. Questo servizio fornisce un riferimento temporale con altissima precisione e grande affidabilità. Ha il vantaggio di poter essere ricevuto meglio negli spazi interni rispetto ad altre basi orarie, come quelle del GPS o delle reti di telefonia mobile.
Non siamo vicini a trovare una soluzione sostitutiva e quando verrà trovata, ci vorranno anni prima che i 300.000 pezzi di attrezzatura vengano sostituiti.
Si potrebbe proporre una ripartizione dei costi tra un'emittente e l'ANFR, invece di far pagare l'intero importo ai contribuenti.

54th anniversary of SLBC

On December 5, 2021 marked the 54th anniversary of the transformation of the former Broadcasting Corporation (SLBC) into a Corporation. Accordingly, 54 years have passed since the official establishment of the radio station. The Ceylon Broadcasting Corporation was officially established on January 5, 1967 due to the difficulties encountered in functioning as a department and the need for a quality radio service. The then Prime Minister Dudley Senanayake officially opened the Ceylon Broadcasting Corporation. Neville de Jayaweera was the first Chairman and Director General of the Corporation. After the adoption of the Republican Constitution in 1972, it was renamed as the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation. From February 9, 1978, two posts of Chairman and Director General were created. Accordingly, Eman Kariyakarawana was appointed as the Chairman and Thevis Guruge as the Director General. Radio became a breakthrough in the history of world communication due to the social change it brought about.

Shortly after the beginning of world radio broadcasting, radio was introduced in Sri Lanka as well. Discussions had been held on the introduction of radio to Sri Lanka since about 1920.

The Ceylon Wireless Association was established in 1922. In 1923 the name was changed to Ceylon Amateur Radio Club. This required licenses for radio broadcasting in Sri Lanka. Accordingly, a committee headed by Edward Harper, then Chief Engineer of the Department of Posts and Telecommunications in Sri Lanka, was appointed to look into the matter.

The committee looked into the following matters. However, the Government did not want to outsource radio broadcasting to the private sector. Therefore, the Government decided that radio in Sri Lanka should be started under the Department of Posts and Telecommunications.

It was against this background that Edward Harper began to develop a radio transmitter. Accordingly, on June, 27, 1924, the then Governor-General of Ceylon, Sir William Henry Manning, issued a message to the Ceylon Society of Engineers, marking the first radio broadcast in Ceylon.

First broadcast

The broadcast went down in history as the first radio broadcast in the British colonies and the first in Asia. Sri Lanka’s first radio station was established on December 16, 1925. Programs aired include Western music, weather reports, and trade information. During that time, radio licences began to be obtained.

Accordingly, in July 1925, 129 radio licenses were issued. Eventually, drama began to be broadcast on the radio. “Wireless Derma” was the first play to be aired. In 1927, sports information and news coverage began. In the same year, the first live Sinhala music program was aired.

Among the announcers who represented the early era of Ceylon Radio were Anderson, L.R. Wijemanne, D. M. Colomboge, D. T. L. Guruge, Karunaratne Abeysekera, and S. Nataraja.

English became the mother tongue of radio, which was created to meet the needs of the British rulers.

Until 1932, Harper was the chief engineer. By 1935 the number of radio licensees in Sri Lanka had increased to 3053. Sri Lankan radio-based programs aired on the British model followed the same pattern. Many of the programs broadcast on the radio were in English. Music programs broadcast on the radio were also in English. These programs were broadcast in Sinhala and Tamil medium long after the inception of the radio.

Western music discs were sourced from England and Tamil discs were obtained from India, while CDs containing Sinhala songs were sourced from companies such as Cargills and Millers. Among the singers who sang Sinhala songs in the early period were B.H. De Silva, Kokila Devi, Susila Jayasinghe, Rukmani Devi and S.A. Latif.

An eminent figure in Sri Lankan society, he has risen from humble beginnings to become the Chairman of the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation. He is responsible for the revival of the SLBC to its current glory. Popular for his outspoken and open radio programs, Hudson Samarasinghe has transformed radio broadcasting in Sri Lanka.

He is a person who has worked closely with four Presidents of this country and has been an elected Member of Parliament. He comes with a multitude of experiences both as a veteran journalist and politician.

Hudson Samarasinghe joined the National Radio around 1969. He is a graduate of Vidyalankara University and was born on October 24, 1944 in Peradeniya. He joined the Corporation as a Radio Program Producer and was appointed to various posts in the Corporation.

In 1989 he was appointed Chairman and Director General of the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation. In 1991, he was elected to Parliament as a Member of Parliament from the Colombo District, representing the United National Party.

Chairmanship

After the then President Chandrika Kumaratunga took over three ministries in 2003, he was re-appointed as the Chairman of the National Air Force. In 2007, President Mahinda Rajapaksa re-appointed (for the third time) the Chairman of National Radio.

Hudson Samarasinghe was instrumental in compiling the new program of the National Radio. Hudson Samarasinghe is the founder of City FM, the first FM channel in the annals of Sri Lankan radio.

An accomplished communicator, Hudson Samarasinghe is a senior journalist with extensive experience in the Sinhala, Tamil and English languages. He has an understanding of Pali and Sanskrit languages. Chairman Hudson Samarasinghe is engaged in revenue generation, giving new hope to the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation in the year 2021. His Dasa Desin Hatha program have garnered the maximum response from the audience.

I actually heard transmission on 485.951 kHz. Brain admitted transmitter varies a bit. He wrote the following.

"The MOPA rig does drift a few hundred hertz every 4 to 6 hrs. If I’m in the shack and see the freq counter or waterfall display is >150Hz off from 486, I just give the “wavelength” control a fine trim to get it back on 486. It’s a 1921 design (wavelength back then, not frequency!) and I’m happy the thing stays as stable as it does given it’s just an LC tank with a UV-201A tube as the oscillator. The L is just cloth covered wire wrapped on a cardboard tube mounted on ceramic standoffs to the wooden chassis. "

As for `Postcard Panorama`, this is the only known airtime, but I have the impression there may be one new show per month, repeated weekly.

Czech radio switches off medium wave as 2022 starts

Prague (dpa) - Radio reception on medium wave (MW) and long wave (LW) has been history in many parts of Europe for years.

Now, in the Czech Republic, at least the public broadcaster will stop transmitting on MW and LW as the new year starts on Saturday.

The powerful transmitters on the frequencies 270, 639 and 954 kilohertz could also be received in large parts of Germany.

The reason given for the move was the widespread availability of terrestrial digital radio DAB+ and the high costs of broadcasting.

Those still listening using medium waves were to be persuaded to switch with a campaign. The radio station Cesky Rozhlas set up a telephone hotline to answer questions.

It was not known at first whether the transmitters would be retained or used for other purposes.

The antenna of the medium-wave transmitter Liblice B east of Prague is considered the highest structure in the Czech Republic, with a height of 355 metres.

Impuls, the most-listened to private radio station, wants to remain faithful to medium wave for the time being. It broadcasts its second programme, with pop and country music, on analogue transmission. (dpa-international.com/)
