Glenn Hauser logs July 4-5, 2015

** CHILE [non]. 12365-USB, July 4 at 2030, checking for another fútbol relay from CBV Valparaíso, but no signal detectable. The final final Copa América match between Chile and Argentina was scheduled to start at 2000 UT. Manuel Méndez in Spain was not hearing it either between 20 and 21, but did detect a very weak signal making it at 2245. 

I had also checked circa 2030 the old LTA Argentina SSB feeder frequencies which it seems have not been reported since 2013 --- nothing on 15820 or 13363.5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 13690, July 5 at 1336, CNR1 with Sunday-evening classical music show, good signal and little QRM, tho this is really a jammer against VOA Chinese via Saipan during this hour only. In fact, the jammer is by far the best source for the show rather than any non-jamming CNR1 frequencies. Also poorly audible on:

16160, July 5 at 1338, CNR1 jammer, very poor

11785, July 5 at 1339, CNR1 jammer, poor

11640, July 5 at 1340, CNR1 jammer, very poor

None in the 18s, 17s, 15s, 14s, 12s, 10s. The 17 MHz band is completely dead except for a VP signal from E Turkistan on 17560!

Back to 13690 at 1343 which is playing Wagner very well --- could this be a Chinese orchestra? 1351 talk over the music incomplete and switch to variations on ``Happy Birthday``; 1357 cut to hyper announcements with classical program over. At least they play some Western classical, but do not respect it enough not to interrupt. Is this Wagner`s birthday? No, May 22, 1813. Some weeks this hour plays Chinese ``classical`` instead (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 550, July 5 at 0557, ID for Cuauhtémoc, Chihuahua, 107.1 [?], ``la Súper Estación, la frecuencia líder``. 550 is XEPL, 5/0.15 kW per IRCA Mexican log 2014, and Cantú as of Feb 2015, but both with FM on 91.3. WTFDA DB shows the only Chih on 107.1 is XHEHB in San Francisco del Oro, simulcasting XEHB 730. Website http://www.xepl.com.mx/ still matches 91.3 XHEPL with 550 as secondary (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 660, July 5 at 0600, music is just finishing, not the NA, and full ID for 98.9 La Lupe, XHACB ``la estación líder del Grupo ---``, singing ID and stops, so is XEACB, Ciudad Delicias, Chihuahua, signing off? IRCA shows until 0700 UT, but that could be non-DST winter timing (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PAPUA NEW GUINEA [non]. Correxion to beginning of my long PNG item in last report, 0500, not 0600 typo in original: 

12025, July 4 at 0456, live coverage of a silly ballgame, apparently American Sámoa vs PNG, fair signal, past 0500 with no ID. This is the latest sensation, NBC suddenly on new SW frequencies for a special event. . .

12025, July 5 at 0522, YL then bit of dead air, OM re game on ``NBC National Radio, 90.7 and 92.5 FM, and our shortwave listeners in PNG and the Pacific``; good signal which we continue to suspect is 100 kW from Shepparton, AUSTRALIA, rather than 10 or 20 or 25 kW from Brandon as alleged (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN [and non]. 13800, July 5 at 0520, R. Dabanga via MADAGASCAR, VG signal, in fact the OSOB as nothing is propagating from Europe; also het jammers from Sudan itself on hi side (Glenn Hauser, OK DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1780 monitoring: confirmed amid UT Sunday July 5 at 0330 with WA0RCR ID inserted on 1860 kHz AM; barely audible here in noise level, but I think I pick up at Guam, so started circa 0315. Next:

Sun 2100 on WRMI 15770

UNIDENTIFIED. 6946.6, July 5 at 0529, open AM carrier with some Doppler flutter; pirate? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

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)

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)
