Hamburg 972 kHz antenna demolished


Medium Wave Info

GERMANY 

Hamburg 972 kHz antenna demolished today 
moorfleet124.html [a look worth/ed] 

184 metres tall radiator and 77 metres tall screening mast, as required by GE75 for running full 300 kW. 
The MW back-up antenna, a 120 metres mast moved in from the Osterloog site after it was closed in 1962, had been blown up already in 2011. The whole arrangement as it was until then: 

Here's still the news release about the delivery of a new solid-state transmitter, put in service in early 2010. Money from the licence fee payers, wasted in the same way than at numerous other AM facilities in Germany.

Radio France International Increases Interest in DAB+

Radio Magazine
By Doug Irwin, CPBE AMD DRB
December 5, 2016 

Earlier this year, we reported how RF started using DAB+ to mitigate interference to its FM service in parts of Paris

PARIS — The forward momentum of digital radio has apparently swept up Radio France. We reported several years ago that RFI had no interest in DAB; but earlier this year, we reported how RF started using DAB+ to mitigate interference to its FM service in parts of Paris.

Now letteraudiovisuel.com is reporting that Radio France is in the process of expanding its DAB+ reach. “RFI is expected to soon extend its distribution in France to Lyon, Lille and Strasbourg as the Ministry of Culture and Communication has asked to reserve a place for international radio in calls for applications for digital terrestrial radio on these three cities. The station, which has only one Parisian frequency, out of 89 FM, had already enjoyed a temporary frequency in Marseille...”

RADIO AUSTRALIA TO CLOSE FROM JANUARY 31, 2017


It has just become official. The Australian Broadcasting Corporation has just provided a media release today December 6 regarding the future of both Radio Australia and the Northern Territory Shortwave Services. Put bluntly, there is no future. It all closes from January 31, 2017.

Here's the media release in full:

ABC Exits Shortwave Radio Transmission

06 December 2016

The ABC will end its shortwave transmission service in the Northern Territory and to international audiences from 31 January 2017. 

The move is in line with the national broadcaster’s commitment to dispense with outdated technology and to expand its digital content offerings including DAB+ digital radio, online and mobile services, together with FM services for international audiences. 

The majority of ABC audiences in the Northern Territory currently access ABC services via AM and FM and all ABC radio and digital radio services are available on the VAST satellite service. 

ABC International’s shortwave services currently broadcast to PNG and the Pacific. Savings realised through decommissioning this service will be reinvested in a more robust FM transmitter network and an expanded content offering for the region that will include English and in-language audio content. 

Michael Mason, ABC’s Director of Radio said, “While shortwave technology has served audiences well for many decades, it is now nearly a century old and serves a very limited audience. The ABC is seeking efficiencies and will instead service this audience through modern technology”. 

The ABC, working alongside SBS, is planning to extend its digital radio services in Darwin and Hobart, and to make permanent its current digital radio trial in Canberra. Extending DAB+ into the nation’s eight capital cities will ensure ABC digital radio services can reach an additional 700,000 people, increasing the overall reach of ABC digital radio to 60% of the Australian population. 

ABC Radio is also investigating transmission improvements to address reception gaps in the existing five DAB+ markets. It aims to ensure a resilient DAB+ service in every capital city, with enhanced bitrates and infill where necessary. 

“Extending our DAB+ offer will allow audiences in every capital city in Australia equal access to our digital radio offering, as well as representing an ongoing broadcast cost saving owing to lower transmission costs,” added Michael Mason. 

ABC International’s Chief Executive Officer Lynley Marshall said the reinvestment from closing international shortwave services would maximise the ABC’s broadcast capabilities in the region.

“In considering how best to serve our Pacific regional audiences into the future we will move away from the legacy of shortwave radio distribution,” Ms Marshall said. “An ever-growing number of people in the region now have access to mobile phones with FM receivers and the ABC will redirect funds towards an extended content offering and a robust FM distribution network to better serve audiences into the future.” 

Once international shortwave ceases transmission, international listeners can continue to access  ABC International services via:
• in-country FM transmitters: see Radio Australia’s ‘Ways to Listen’ at:http://www.radioaustralia.net.au/international/radio/waystolisten/fiji 
• the Australia Plus expats app (available in both iOS and Android)
• partner websites and apps such as www.tunein.com  and www.vtuner.com.

Audiences can access further information via the reception advice line 1300 139 994, online atabc.net.au/shortwave, or via ABC Local Radio (Darwin and Alice Springs).

Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 28 Nov - 04 Dec 2016

Solar activity ranged from very low to moderate levels over the
period. Very low levels were observed on 01-03 December, low levels
were observed on 28 and 30 November and again on 04 December while
moderate levels were observed on 29 November. Region 2615 (S07,
L=139, class/area Dai/170 on 04 December) was responsible for the
majority of the solar activity over the period since its inception
late on 28 November. This region was responsible for 11 C-class
flares and two M-class flares; an M1/Sn at 29/1723 UTC and an M1/Sf
at 29/2338 UTC. No Earth-directed coronal mass ejections were
observed during the period.

No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at
high levels throughout the period with a maximum flux of 41,607 pfu
observed at 28/1640 UTC.

Geomagnetic field activity ranged from quiet to unsettled levels
during the period. The period began as solar wind parameters were
slowly recovering from a positive polarity coronal hole high speed
stream (CH HSS). Solar wind speeds slowly decreased from
approximately 570 km/s early in the period to near 280 km/s by the
end. Total field values ranged from 1 nT to 7 nT. The geomagnetic
field was at quiet to unsettled levels on 28 November. Quiet levels
were observed from 29 November through 04 December.

FORECAST OF SOLAR AND GEOMAGNETIC ACTIVITY 05 - 31 DECEMBER 2016

Solar activity is expected to be at very low levels with a chance
for C-class flares and a slight chance for M-class (R1-Minor) flares
on 05-10 December and again from 24-31 December due to potential
solar activity from Region 2615. The rest of the forecast period is
expected to be at very low levels.

No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is
expected to be normal to moderate levels with high levels likely on
05-06, 10-18, and 22-31 December due to recurrent CH HSS influence.

Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at unsettled to active
levels on 05, 07-11, and 19-25 December with G1 (Minor) geomagnetic
storm levels likely on 08-09 and 21-22 December due to recurrent CH
HSS activity.

DX/SWL/Media Programs

Alan Roe`s Hitlist of SW station websites

World of Radio schedule

** CUBA. 6100, Dec 5 at 0554, RHC`s strongest and best-modulated English frequency here by far is instead dead air, also a few minutes later. 6000 & 6165 are very undermodulated as usual tho S9+45 and S9+35; that leaves 6060 sufficient at S9+30; and 5040 is in Spanish. Also still on in Spanish are 9535 and 9710 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ERITREA [and non]. 7175, Dec 5 at 1435, JBA carrier, no doubt VOBME-2 by longpath, but nothing in the 7146 range from VOBME-1; off or moved? Also have two carriers beating on 7205: Sudan? and could the other be VOBME now? Aoki shows 7205 Urumqi in Uighur, but Sudan not starting until 1430 as of B-15. Still hearing the same at 1513 recheck; and by then, 7120 JBA carrier from Hargeisa, Somaliland longpath is also present (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDONESIA. 9525.9, Dec 4 at 1411, no signal from VOI. Atsunori Ishida at http://rri.jpn.org/ reports a carrier until 1300, but no signal from 14 to 21 this date (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX ISTENING DIGEST)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 9400, Dec 4 at 1405, good S9+40 Kurdish music at S9+10, no QRM after FEBC is finished, from Denge Kurdistane, 300 kW, 130 degrees from PRIDNESTROVYE at 12-15 per Aoki, so long path? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** UGANDA [non]. 15240, Sunday December 4 at 1659, Dave Frantz sounds live on S7 WWRB ``Middle East, Africa, European service``, asking for reports, soon ``over to Uganda`` for R. Munansi at 1700, but dead air for a while. I suppose this was just signing on rather than a break, and apparently running at least until 2100 on Sat & Sun (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 15220, Dec 4 at 2123, VOA One rock music, IADs of a couple seconds at irregular intervals, during the so-called Haitian Creole service at 2100-2130 which however at least on weekends fills with VOA One instead. Also on 11720, and carriers are open well before 2100. This is not // 15580 also VOA Greenville, with African service music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1854 monitoring: confirmed UT Monday December 5 from 0401 on Area 51 webcast, and also on WBCQ 5130.083, S9+10. Next:
Tue 0030   WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
Tue 0030   WRMI 7730 to WNW
Tue 1200   WRMI 9955 to SSE
Tue 2130   WRMI 15770 to NE
Wed 0030   WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
Wed 2200   WBCQ 7490v to WSW
Thu 0030   WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. 7490, Dec 4 at 2329, heavy CCI between WBCQ and BBCWS in English, making medium SAH at about equal levels! This is a continuing frequency management failure, as apparently FCC and BaBcoCk negotiators at HFCC can`t imagine that BBC Thailand would be a problem for `BCQ in central USA. Fortunately it`s for only one hour now at 23-24, 250 kW, 25 degrees from Nakhon Sawan, which means under grayline conditions it carries right on to North America. Even more fortunately, there is nothing worth listening to on WBCQ during this hour M-F, only Brother Scare; on Sundays `WGOD Presents`, whatever that is; but on Saturdays, the first hour of J. P. Ferraro`s `Shortwave Saturday Night`. Perhaps he should complain about it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. 12035, Dec 5 at 1415, Voice of Turkey music in English service suffers from splatter de 12050, dirty transmitter of Mother Angelica`s WEWN, which can also be heard down to 11985, barely missing Reach Beyond, Australia in English on 11980 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 17775, Dec 5 at 1518, S9+30 KVOH with report about Chilean radio station ratings, on `Frecuencia al Día`, then Dino with Dec birthday wishes to regular listeners. Once again KVOH is playing FAD on Monday at 1500, when `Antena DX` is on their schedule: what has become of that? FAD is scheduled Fridays at 1500, maybe both times now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search Dec 4, UT:
 612-WSW at 1302
 657-WSW at 1303
 702-WSW at 1304, 2 signals beating
 693-NW at 1301
 738-SW at 1304
 747-NW at 1300
 774-NW at 1259
 828-NW at 1305
1098-W at 1307
NW implies Japan; WSW, Australia/NZ; W, Marshall Islands; SW, Tahiti. Enid sunrise today: 1328 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5010.00, Dec 5 at 0706, carrier here, but cannot be blamed on 5040 Cuba leapfrog over 5025 since 5040 is now off. Possibly a utility: we must not forget that 60m is NOT a broadcast band in non-tropical North America, but a fixed band; any broadcasters are there as exceptions (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5810, Dec 4 at 2337, some broadcaster VP signal, not yet WEWN which nominally starts bigsig in Spanish at 0000. Nothing else scheduled now; possibly ChiCom-jammed BBC jumparound frequency from Thailand in English, which Aoki shows started Nov 27 but at 12-14 UT only (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5995, Dec 5 until 0552* something in English just going off as I tune in. Nothing scheduled, but Mali (hardly modulated) from 0600, or per EiBi from 0558 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn Hauser logs December 3-4, 2016


** CUBA. 5010, Dec 4 at 0102, JBA carrier, probably leapfrog of 5040 RHC over 5025 Rebelde another 15 kHz lower (but a reverse leap on 5055 is not audible this time). Unlikely Madagascar, as too close to on-frequency, and too middle-of-the-night (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CZECHIA [non]. 5850, Sat Dec 3 at 2345 I`m listening on the BST1 caradio to R. Prague relay via WRMI (following the DSWCI special), when the YL mentions that this is their FINAL `Mailbox` show. It`s being discontinued since they aren`t getting enough e-mail response (let alone postal?), as it`s steadily falling since they abandoned SW a few years ago (errr, not quite!). NOW, all they need is immediate feedback from listeners on FB! But you can still e-mail them if you like. BTW, the R. Prague 2330 English broadcast does not appear on the non-9955 WRMI program schedule grids for 5850, but it does appear on the frequency schedule grid above it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** DENMARK [non]. 5850, Dec 3 at 2300-2329, Part I of the DSWCI farewell special, comes off without a hitch on WRMI, usual VG signal on this channel; comments by Anker Petersen et al., recorded at their final AGM in October, explaining why club is being disbanded at yearend due to leaders in their 70s ready to retire and no younger blood to take over. Another club, which continues, RMRC, handled this produxion, and host explains two or three times how to QSL: Report NOT to the stations carrying it but to their own addresses. Part II is to air one week later at same time (and four others on WRMI). Part I to repeat immediately at 2330 on 11580, unchecked here but heard in Argentina by Arnaldo Slaen (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** IRAN. 7420, Dec 4 at 0113, S7 signal in Spanish, from IRIB, 500 kW slewed -25 degrees so it`s due west from Sirjan (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MADAGASCAR. 9855, Dec 3 at 2051, pop music at S9+10, soon French announcement about Japon, so must have been J-pop, from NHK as scheduled from 2030 until 2100* cut off before the final timesignal beep (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MADAGASCAR [and non]. 17570, Dec 3 at 2015, S9 unknown African language talk, 2020 songs, 2030 stops for open carrier, 2032* off. HFCC shows AWR, 2000-2030, 250 kW, 305 degrees from Talata daily in Mos language, which despite no S in it, per EiBi readme.txt translates to ``MOO Moore/Mòoré: Burkina Faso (5 million) [mos]``.

What makes this especially interesting is the presence of two carriers offset to the high side, which is Sudanese-style jamming: approx. 17571.235 and 17572.415, while AWR itself is on 17570.006. The jammers also producing hets with each other, are at least as strong as the target. These are still on past 2033. So why would B.F. bother to jam this, or is it now a more Sudanese language? And still, why jam it? 

Well, 17570 is used earlier at 1630-1730 for AWR via Germany in Somali and Amharic, the latter a more sensitive language, but Ethiopian jamming is usually DRMish noise rather than carrier/hets/tones, as applied against R. Dabanga (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MADAGASCAR. 17640, Dec 3 at 2013 check, still zilch from MWV Mahajanga, APR alleged English hour. Propagation is certainly OK; see MAD 17570 AWR log (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NETHERLANDS [non]. 6145, Dec 4 at 0125, Mighty KBC via GERMANY, S9+25: Uncle Eric says he`s going on a special diet, ``no more fat hamburgers``, into Paul Revere & the Raiders. Addresses us as ``shortwave commandos``; 0130+ Kim Elliott Radiogram beeps I gather portraying the Dutch Sint Nikolaas (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6940, Dec 4 at 0108, tune-in to fragment of one word and immediately into SSTV beeps, which seem to be centred about 6941.50, ending with a single beep at 0110*. It`s Wolverine Radio per 
several HFU logs including this with the romantic sunset SSTV image:
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, Dec 4 at 0100, JBA carrier from R. Chaski until autocutoff at 0106:01*, which is 26 seconds later than last check four nights ago, Nov 30 until 0105:35*, appropriately averaging 6.5 seconds later per (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENNG DIGEST)

** UGANDA [non]. 15240, Sat Dec 3 at 1953, fair-good S9+10 signal in presumed Luganda, mentioning ``Ugaaanda`` several times, still going past 2013, so R. Munansi as usual via WWRB, but running later than originally. I was also hearing a very poor signal on 15240 before and after 17 UT, presumed same. Recheck at 2106, African? music or at least carrier must *still* be on after WWRB`s registered finish at 2100, since there is a fast SAH with presumed R. Australia, known to start 15240 at 2100, altho they are absent from HFCC B-16:
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also USA: WWRB: 3195

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1854 monitoring: confirmed Sat Dec 3 at 2330 on WBCQ 9330.09-CUSB, fair. Also confirmed UT Sun Dec 4 at 0425 on WA0RCR, MO, 1860-AM, about 7 minutes in, so started circa 0418; S9+30 muscling aside most of the CW QRM (Earlier check at 0134 Dec 4 found 1860-AM surrounded and slightly QRMed by CW. Bottom Band is chock full of CW CQs, must be a contest, up to 1875, where an LSB mixes in, and only phone above 1875). Next:

Thu 0030   WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9955, Sat Dec 3 at 2100, WRMI switches from The Overkiller to --- Xmas music! quite sectarian, rather than eclectic World Music. Maybe something secular intermixed later, but I`m tuning away. More Xmas music momentarily secular (Merry Little Xmas) is on much stronger 9930 WTWW-2; while 15770, WRMI at 2100 is in Dub Politico screed (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 3215, UT Sun Dec 4 at 0013, tune-in to another F-RANT-z from Dave on WWRB. Signal is clean and clearly modulated now. He`s killing time until a 0030 program. Among his points: churches are dead, anti-social clubs, eating up $1000 a day in tithe money to be vacant buildings, 6+ days a week, whitèd sepulchers full of dead man`s bones. Will give you spiritual AIDS, but the fastest way to get it is to go to a Catholic church, dog-and-pony shows, where they bugger little kids.

NOTE: I am closely paraphrasing what Dave says, altho not in strict quotation marks; NOT what I am saying! Says he is not mad, just frustrated at so little business for his broadcasting; airtime cost no more than a newspaper ad.

0019 takes a Hammond organ break for a few minutes, waiting for 0030 program to call-in. Says don`t confuse WWRB with that other station on 3215, which takes over at 9 pm ET when WWRB moves to 3195: SW stations can`t stay on same frequency all the time. (Yes, they could, like 3195 only for WWRB, 3215 only for WWCR.) 

A bit more rant, pregnant pause, and 0030 over to anticipated program which is `American Prophecy` from Greentown OH, Sat 7:30-9 pm ET on Shortwave 1, 3215, but probably changing back to 5050, SW 2 in April. Webcast via WWRB site. Their own website has summer and winter frequencies reversed. It`s also on WHKW; they offer free stuff and allegedly don`t ask for money. A few minutes later into sermon(?) as it seems this is another end-times conspiracy ministry and I tune out (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7505.36v, Dec 4 at 0204, S9 WRNO, someone about to read from a book by Dr Mawire, drifts up to 7505.40 and during music abruptly jumps way down to 7504.87 to start another drift upward. And so it goes (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 780-CUSB, Dec 4 at 0143 UT, cowboy music obviously from KCEG, ``The Ranch``, Fountain CO, NO signal on LSB, but on USB mixing with WBBM which is DSB. So I can listen to WBBM QRM-free but not KCEG, even with WBBM nulled as much as possible. 0150 UT, program is `Calling All Cowboys`. 

Then ad for Royal Gorge Cabaret, Rosenkranz Mysteries, but AC 312 phone and then mention Highland Park. Oops, this part is WBBM, not KCEG, for there is no Royal Gorge Cabaret near Colorado Springs, but there is a Royal GEORGE Theatre in Chicago --- with Rosenkranz!

0159 UT definitely back to KCEG for outro to `Calling All Cowboys`, which says it originates with 88.9 KPOV, High Desert Community Radio in Bend OR, then ID mentioning Colorado Springs. KCEG is 1900/720 watts U4 and not specified as USB only in the NRC AM Log, an essential datum in my opinion, like it also is for KHAC, 880-CUSB, AZ. CUSB meaning carrier plus USB; as far as I can tell it is not reduced, as typically done on SW, WBCQ 9330. KCEG day pattern goes north, smaller night pattern SSE, neither should be much good for here but it`s a significant challenge to WBBM when KSPI is off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 711.0, Dec 4 at 0147, carrier/het first noticed against KCMO/KYBA, likely the 300 kW Moroccan in El Aiyun, -[spelt by WRTH Laâyoune], occupied WESTERN SAHARA, the closest, strongest and most oft-reported 711 TA from further east. Loops about ENE, and the true bearing of El Aaiún from Enid is exactly 70 degrees. Made sure het was not on low side from sometimes off-frequency Mexican. Nothing on 783 from neighbor Mauritania (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
