Glenn Hauser logs November 23-24, 2009
** BRAZIL. Checking for more possible WWCR tests, on 4755 Nov 24 at 0037 heard instead weak signal in Brazilian Portuguese, M&W mentioning ``bendita`` (blessed), etc. This is surely R. Imaculada Conceição, Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, which per Aoki is 10 kW non-direxional. WWCR is certainly capable of totally overriding it in NAm, but also with 100 kW also capable of damaging RIC within Brasil over a night-path (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 9620, RHC mix of two Spanish programs weakly at 2209 Nov 23, a leapfrog of main RHC 9660 over Mesa Redonda 9640. Why am I not surprised? BTW, 9660 is one of several RHC channels with degraded narrowband rough modulation. Is this caused by the program feed circuit, or the transmitters? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. Wouldn`t you know it, I spoke too soon about KGYN 1210 Guymon being back to normal with daytime groundwave signal reaching as far as Enid, as heard Nov 22. 24 hours later, Nov 23, also monitoring on caradio in western Enid, at several chex around 1945-2115 UT, nothing heard at all. Except a very weak SAH from who knows what marginal signals. KGYN could have been off the air. Something is certainly going on there with its transmission problems (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 1120, KEOR, Nov 23, several chex 1945-2045 UT, back to playing album cuts, sometimes with long pauses, old jazz songs, Billie Holliday? No more DJ or highly-produced 1340 simulcast. By 2115 KMOX was dominating frequency altho KEOR carrier still seemed to be there. What`s next? (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U K [non]. 9915, BBCWS in English, Nov 23 at 2151, interview featuring Indian accents first brought to mind AIR GOS, but not on 9915, which also had tell-tale ``generator whine/hum`` which inflicts various Ascension relay frequencies, which this is at 21-23. BBCWS also uses 9915 at various times between 04 and 21 but in Arabic, via Cyprus, Rampisham, or even Austria (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9980, WWCR-4, PPP service off the air Nov 23 at 2149 and further chex next dekaminute. Nor on nite frequency 5890. Nor on recently tested frequencies 4775, 4755, 3240. Other transmitters heard normally on 7465, 12160, 13845. Possibly #4 was testing some completely different channel as I did not scan the entire SWBC spectrum, but not on 31m. Also checked WWCR frequencies at 2355 and found 3240 running, no testing on 4 MHz band now, leaving TADIL-A bonker in the clear on 4775.
In case WWCR-4 would also be missing from nighttime channel 5890, checked that around 0235 Nov 24, but it was back on, so never mind looking for R. Peace, Sudan on 5895 if it is really active at 0300-0400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. VOA Greenville, 13725, 2159 Nov 23 with YDD sign-on, bit of unrelated music at 2200, bad switching, and opening in Creole. Bandscanning upwards, I came to // 15390 at 2205 but it was open carrier. Then Creole audio cut on, off, back on but at very low level, they turned up level. Don`t know if it was all silence until 2205, but such things have happened at IBB. After a transmission starts is not the time to mess around with the modulation input or output (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9465-9555 rapid pulsing, with several peaks in this range atop any broadcast signals, not the same sound as from OTH radar Cyprus or China previously reported on numerous other ranges, Nov 23 at 2152, still going at 2210 when some broadcast signals could be heard thru it.
Possibly spurious from DRM transmitter on 9450? Also running at 2152 i.e. the HCJB/IBB Greenville test, which has been absent from the DRMDX schedule, and still is. However, the sound is quite different from the 10-kHz intentional DRM spread. These wideband DRM channels can be confusing to downpin on analog receivers: on the YB-400 stepping up and down 5 kHz, I would have been sure it was centered on 9455. But on the FRG-7 it was 9450.
Or something completely different? Since yahoo group searching doesn`t funxion, I looked thru the last month+ of reports on the DRM NA yg and the latest mention of HCJB/IBB 9450 was on Oct 13:
``The current test release to NA is airing from 1600 to 2000 UT on 9450. This has done much better in the Midwest than the evening release did. I've been able to push the bit rate up the maximum in mode B and still get virtually 100 audio decode. I can switch to stereo or parametric stereo but since the source at Greenville is mono it won't gain us anything. We will be testing on Mode A later this week.

** CHINA. Firedrake Nov 23 at 1405 cutting back on after open carrier hourtop monitoring pause: about equal fair levels for a change on 10210, 9000, 8400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CYPRUS. 15250-15275, OTH radar pulses, presumed from here, Nov 23 at 1425. No broadcasters bothered except at the very edges, well-selected segment? But should not be in the SWBC band at all! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** HAWAII. 10320-USB, AFN has been missing for about a week now, at various chex, such as Nov 23 at 1406. Hope it`s not gone for good as 6350 appears to be (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

At 1404 I could barely make some normally modulated music on 9470 // but not synchronized with 9425, which is the nominal situation. Both poor, with adjacent QRM stronger (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. 4750, RRI Makassar, presumed, Nov 23 at 1429 YL talk in Indonesian over slight SAH, China? Then long period of mostly slow romantic music, still 1440; 1454 weaker but still audible with YL announcements. The other station on 4750, Bangladesh, is reported to close around 1400; it might make it here if and when RRI be missing, but still has to contend with China.
Then I tuned to 9680 for RRI Jakarta, much better signal at 1459 with Indonesian music continuing past hourtop and 1506.
VOI is still on 9525.9 for 1300 English, 1400 Malay, but weaker or softer than neighbors on 9520, 9530 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KURDISTAN [non]. 11530, V. of Mesopotamia, Nov 23 at 1410, good but with flutter, so enjoyed the Kurdish music, and they do play a lot of it. Via UKRAINE. I wonder if the source of this is common knowledge in Kurdistan? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. Since my last observation Oct 16 as in DXLD 9-077 that KGYN Guymon was very weak to inaudible in the daytime here in Enid, contrary to usual adequate groundwave signal on non-direxional 10 kW pattern, I have continued to check 1210, mainly on the caradio when aroundriving, especially in western Enid, and it had remained the same.
But Nov 22 at 2045 UT it was back to its old self, with country music and 2053 ID as ``serving five states … US Country, KGYN 1210``. So I am even more convinced that in the interim they had been stuck on the direxional night pattern westward, null eastward, even in the daytime, and/or at much reduced power. Signal quite steady and I don`t think skywave had kicked in yet, nor on other frequencies north/eastward, tho it would also have been weaker that way while direxional-daytime.
BTW, from the middle of No Man`s Land, it would be hard *not* to serve five states (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SAUDI ARABIA. 11785, BSKSA buzzer stronger than usual Nov 23 at 1407 over anything else; remained audible, weaker at 1529. Still not heard on 21505 before 1500 but not sure if gone or due to propagation (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SLOVAKIA. Tnx to tip from Ivanildo Gonçalves Dantas, Brasil in dxclubepr yg, RSI heard on new 6040, fair signal UT Nov 23 at 0123 check in mailbag with Slavic accent, and references to RSI, finished at 0126, then into IS and IDs but no frequency announcement heard.
Already scheduled on 6040 is RCI in English via Skelton at 0100-0200, but could not hear RCI underneath here; they may be colliding in Europe and eastward. RSI started the B-09 season on 7230, where I had heard it. Have RSI finally got religion and evacuated from the 40m Region 2 hamband, or is this just for better propagation? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WWCR back on 3240, Nov 22 at 2345 check, while 24 hours earlier they were testing transmitter-1 on 4775. Have not tried to outfigure it, but test hours are probably during unsold time, or at least with the approval or even urging of certain clients (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED [and non]. 6074, no trace of 8GAL at 1400-1402 check Nov 23; instead noted the motorboating Pet/Kam transmitter on 6075 concluding with timesignal which was about 2 seconds offset from the China/Taiwan radio war timesignal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15382, the center of some rapid clicking bothering Spain 15385, Nov 23 at 1537. I think this is spur from DentroCuban Jamming Command against Radio Martí on 15330, same 52-kHz displacement as heard around 6082 when jamming 6030 at night. But neither has a match on the lo side (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
** CHINA. Firedrake Nov 23 at 1405 cutting back on after open carrier hourtop monitoring pause: about equal fair levels for a change on 10210, 9000, 8400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CYPRUS. 15250-15275, OTH radar pulses, presumed from here, Nov 23 at 1425. No broadcasters bothered except at the very edges, well-selected segment? But should not be in the SWBC band at all! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn Hauser logs November 21-22, 2009
** ALBANIA. Second night of new frequency from R. Tirana, UT Nov 22: about the same as first night, i.e. 6130 from 0000 in Albanian in the clear, with minimal adjacent interference instead of heavy head-on QRM from the DentroCubans who usurped ex-6110. 6130 also clear for English at 0245. Semihour 0430 English however was even better on unchanged 6100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 11925.2, R. Bandeirantes, best heard in a long time, Nov 22 at 0612 with station promos, 0614 ID as ``AM 840, FM 90,9, Rádio Bandeirantes``, no mention of any SW frequency! Loud signal, but rather distorted audio.
After that I expected to hear the other 25m Brazilians, but nothing on 11815 from RBC, and at first 11780 RNA seemed absent. Then I was able to detect 11780 // 6185, but masked by RHC 11760 huge S9+25 signal desensitizing receiver as far as 20 kHz away! Same situation at 0638 check. Seems like we had a pipeline from São Paulo excluding Brasília and Goiânia, or maybe 11815 just off the air (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake Nov 22 at 0620: BA on 8400, JBA on 9000, NA on 10210 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. See ALBANIA; VENEZUELA [non]
** ECUADOR [non]. HCJB`s service in declamatory Kulina-as-a-second-language remains at 2245 UT on 11920 post-switch to relay via CVC CHILE, as confirmed Nov 21 at 2256, then Brazilian 2300-2445. Did not notice any spurs around 11920 as some have (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDIA. Checking for AIR 9470 Aligarh distortion blob Nov 22 at 1450, could not find it, and could not be sure weak signal on 9470 was that or Russia. Earlier on Nov 22, I heard from Jose Jacob in Hyderabad:
``Dear Glenn, Information received from AIR officials state that the Aligarh transmitter on 9470 kHz carrying National Channel (1320-0041) is set right two days back. During the last two days I monitored them on exactly 9470 with proper audio (and properly on other channel used by this transmitter, viz. 9910 0215-0345). You may please check it up. I wanted to check it up properly before informing you, hence the short delay.``
We need to check at *1317, which I have not managed to do the last few days, but so far it seems at later chex that the problem is over.
11620, at 1612 Nov 22 continuous tone, 1613:30 to AIR IS, and 1615 fluttery opening Russian hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SUDAN [non]. 17745, Sudan Radio Service via Sines, PORTUGAL, Sunday Nov 22 at 1537 with Q&A in English about the advantages of democratic elexions. At least on the local level; not much chance of that on the national level, but got to start somewhere. Sounds like something out of Washington, tho with true African accents. Woman posed questions, man explained. At conclusion I think they mentioned elexions coming up in July 2009, so a repeat? Still with introduced echoing on the talk, otherwise good signal. 1544-1545 multiple Sudan Radio Service IDs, then into vernacular (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U K [non]. 9740 via Singapore, BBCWS in a rare music show, Sunday Nov 22 at 1450, African this time. Same heard an hour later on 17640 and better 17830 both via Ascension, at 1535 drumming and chanting, 1541 Charlie Gillett announces a duet by unknown Burundi girls, matching playlist at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0053fd0 for this edition of his World of Music show (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 4775, WWCR testing this frequency instead of 4755. Tnx to tip from John Figliozzi, Nov 21 at 2233 with announcement asking for reception reports, back to music; on here instead of 7465, which means it`s the #1 transmitter; still going past 2300, now instead of 3240. VG signal here, so goodbye to Radio Tarma, Perú on 4775.
Did not check more thru the evening, as assumed they would go back to 3240/3215 by 0000, but when I did retune at 0630, 4775 was still/again on the air at S9+22 with hard rock music (gospel?), and test announcement at 0632. So much for Nigeria on 4770, and Guatemala`s Radio Coatán on 4780, currently inactive but willing to reactivate if they could find a needed transmitter component, as Manuel Méndez found out.
Despite the huge signal from Nashville, could hear TADIL-A bonking underneath. Assuming that is a legitimate USG/military user of the 4775 bandwidth, WWCR`s stay there may be short. Did anyone notice whether WWCR went back to 3215 by 0730 when WORLD OF RADIO is scheduled on Sundays? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 18770, WWRB on 2 x 9385 with Brother Scare service, Nov 22 at 1545, peaking S7 or so. Had not been deliberately looking for this harmonic lately, but as a matter of fact, the usual tipoff, WWCR on 15825 was enhanced by HF sporadic E at the time with insane-sounding screaming preacher who views the extreme modulation distortion he causes as an asset, and still going at 1607 check, i.e. scheduled 1530-1630 ``A Temple Of Jesus Christ`` with Cleveland Waters.
By then, however, 18770 no longer audible. The intentional 18 MHz channels then: YFR Spanish only poor on 18930, and too weak to tell language on 18980. Both start at 1600 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9615, where there is normally no significant signal, instead huge S9+22, Nov 22 at 0617 with YL(?) preaching about how Jesus was baptized. Also some hum/frying sound, from the recording rather than transmitter? Figured it had to be a new frequency from a US gospel huxter. 0628 switch to studio announcer outro of show as Hour of Dominion, http://www.gracejohnsonministries.org plus address in South Bend, a hefty clue, and sure enough, 0629 WHR promo, ID, 0630 to Christian music.
Then I see 9615 in FCC B09:
9615 0600 0700 WHRI 250 57 38-39 1234567 251009 280310
which means 7 days a week, but surely not, or I would have found it before in nightly bandscans during this hour, apparently really Sunday only, another case of a frequency whose registration is 86% wooden. CIRAF 38-39 means Libya, Egypt, Turkey and all points south to Oman and Yemen. The client no doubt wanted to broadcast to The Holy Land once a week (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9955, WRMI Sunday Nov 22 at 1614, closing the only(?) Cuban exile program in English, ``CDHD Brigade`` announcers named Carla Ferrera and Segundo Miranda; WRMI ID and into WORLD OF RADIO 1487 at 1615, VG signal over jamming if any (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA [non]. The official RHC B-09 schedule we have received still claims Aló Presidente:
Chicago 13750 / 22 m 1400 - 1800
Centro América 13680 / 22 m 1400 - 1800
Antillas 11690 / 25 m 1400 - 1800
Chile 12010 / 25 m 1400 - 1800
Río de Janeiro 17750 / 16 m 1400 - 1800
But neglects to specify Sunday only, and very irregular, at the whim of el caudillo. Nov 22 around 1510 no sign of it. Nor at 1759 recheck, none of those channels on, except 11690 which normally carries RHC itself, // 11730, 11760, 11800 mid-day.
The A,P schedule happens to be nominally the same as in A-09, but we know that when Hugo Chávez is on, it has really been starting between 1530 and 1600, and running past 1900 on most of the channels.
The B-09 RHC schedule as in DXLD 9-081 still has not been put up on RHC`s own website which automatically displays the current date, http://www.radiohc.cu/espanol/c_frecuencia/frecuencias.htm

WWCR Testing on 4775
WWCR Nashville is putting a killer signal into the Albany, NY area on 4775 kHz. at 2220 UT. The program is rock music interspersed with frequent announcements by a male describing the transmission as a test and asking for reception reports to 4775@wwcr.com
At my location, the signal is a solid S9+30 with only a minor infrequent fluctuation down to +20.

** CHINA. Firedrake Nov 21 at 1418: nil on 8400, good on 9000 // 10210 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COSTA RICA. After hearing Spanish music from Romania instead of Spain on 15170, I checked the other Cariari relay frequencies Nov 21 at 1614: 9765 open carrier S9+12 and at first could hear no audio except WWCR 9980 overload, but finally JBA classical music apparently in a soft passage making the undermodulation worse. 17850 much stronger at S9+20 and undermodulated music JBA there // 17595 direct but after satellite delay. At 1623 the other Cariari transmitter audible on 15125; all grossly undermodulated (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. 15190, Nov 21 at 1624, fair signal, preacher screaming about Jeezus, no doubt R. Africa (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDIA. AIR Aligarh blobwatch inconclusive Nov 21: at 1423 there was a bit of a mess around 9460, but not sure that was it; also a very weak carrier detectable on 9470 and could not // it or 9460 to 9425, itself rather weak. 9470 could well be VOR Moscow as sked after 1400. For best results one preferably chex at *1317.
9870, AIR VBS, Nov 21 at 1610 averaging S9+18 and not too much flutter in Indian pop music, announcements in Hindi, ads, no QRM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PORTUGAL. 15560, RDPI, strongest signal on 19m band, // much weaker 15520, Nov 21 at 1625 with fado, other music. During pause lacking any intentional modulation, continuous whine on the 15560 transmitter clearly audible. Only expect to hear this active on weekend mornings (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ROMANIA. 15170 with songs in Spanish, tangos, Nov 21 at 1442. Don`t you believe it`s REE since Cariari has Saturday off from 15170, and not // REE 17595. Instead parallel 11940 RRI in music-culture show announced in Romanian (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SUDAN [non]. 17745, SRS via PORTUGAL, Sat Nov 21 at 1530 tune-in, English talk by M&W, heavy accent and heavy echo but not during the music breaks. Same date, Brian Alexander was hearing them in English from *1459 but Arabic at 1529, as per WRTH saying English is Sat/Sun only. But back in English when I intuned (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. ``Ears to Our World``, the PCJ Media special about radio in Africa, was repeated at 1400 UT Sat Nov 21 on WRMI 9955, but DentroCuban jamming was at about the same level, sometimes on top. Tnx a lot, Arnie! I only heard the first quarter on the first airing UT Fri Nov 20 at 0200 when it pre-empted WORLD OF RADIO, so hope the entire file will be availablized at http://www.pcjmedia.com/Other_PCJ_Shows.html
but not yet as of 1945 UT Nov 21 (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Surprised to hear Martha Garvin`s ``Musical Memories`` Sat Nov 21 at 1407 on 7490, i.e. following ``Rock the Universe`` at 13-14 on WWCR-3. Per the current pdf program grid dated Nov 1, the Sat 1400-1430 program is supposed to be Country Crossroads.
MM has Martha accompanying herself loudly on piano, belting away hymns and somewhat secular songs on a theme: this week, what else, Thanksgiving, with ``We Gather Together`` as I intuned, and after some comments, next on to Irving Berlin`s ``Count Your Blessings``, and at 1414 ``Great Is Thy Faithfulness``.
MM is on the WWCR grid as follows: Sat 1530 on 15825, Sun 1100 on 5070, Tue 1830 on 15825, Wed 1330 on 15825 --- so this week at least, she`s on a frequency with a big signal, and at a waking hour! However, 7490 had massive distortion from selective fading on top of WWCR`s audio processing, not ideal for music in the first place.
MM is missing from the program linx page at http://www.wwcr.com/pgm-links.html but googling soon finds her website http://www.musicalmemoriestv.com/ ``OLD SONGS OF THE CHRISTAIN [sic] FAITH!" with portrait where several of her shows are available online and by DVD. Google also reminds us that she is or was also on WINB but her website gives no SW schedule (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 13845, WWCR with PMS, Nov 21 at 1434 and QRM from WEWN 13835 parasitic hash which always accompanies at least one of its transmitters plus and minus 10 kHz. We have been outpointing this for months, but it goes on and on. Perhaps a direct complaint from victim adjacent stations WWCR, and in other cases WYFR, would get something done about it, unless nobody really cares! Not that I am dying to hear PMS, DGS or BS on 13845 nor anything from WYFR e.g. 11530, 15600. Catholix vs Protestants, or whatever they are (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 6074, 8GAL, CQ/V ID marker from 8GAL just barely audible, Nov 21 at 1400 following grossly out-of-synch timesignals between R. Rossii, 6075, Pet/Kam signing off, and CNR1/Taiwan radio war already in progress. While I hate to `lose` the all-too-brief, 8GAL signal, with the BFO originally zeroed on 6075 audibilizing the CW, I did downtune quickly to reconfirm it`s really on 6074 as the pitch of the CW decreased to zero (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 7660 approx., Nov 21 at 1416 someone singing distortedly as I tuned across. Not AM, and not SSB either as I switched on BFO, so maybe NBFM, but soon gone and did not come back in next few minutes, to downpin frequency which could be +/- 5. Possibly 2 x 3830 or so, some ham around-playing (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
** COSTA RICA. After hearing Spanish music from Romania instead of Spain on 15170, I checked the other Cariari relay frequencies Nov 21 at 1614: 9765 open carrier S9+12 and at first could hear no audio except WWCR 9980 overload, but finally JBA classical music apparently in a soft passage making the undermodulation worse. 17850 much stronger at S9+20 and undermodulated music JBA there // 17595 direct but after satellite delay. At 1623 the other Cariari transmitter audible on 15125; all grossly undermodulated (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Alcuni test della nuova Tecsun PL-310
Qualche giorno fa, dopo oltre 3 settimane di attesa, mi è finalmente arrivata la Tecsun PL-310, la nuova radio con chip DSP prodotta in Cina e venduta su e-bay ad un prezzo veramente conveniente (40$ - circa 27 euro - e spese di spedizione). Avevo deciso di acquistarla convinto dalle ottime recensioni apparse sui gruppi degli appassionati di "Ultralight MW Dxing", e dopo averla provata ne sono rimasto entusiasta.
Le prestazioni in onde medie ed in FM sono notoriamente eccezionali; molto è stato scritto sui newsgroup e su queste bande non mi dilungo; poco invece era stato detto sulle prestazioni in onde corte. Ho deciso quindi di effettuare qualche test comparativo in SW tra la PL310 e le DEGEN, notoriamente un punto di riferimento per i ricevitori portatili.
I test sono stati effettuati nelle bande comprese tra i 19 metri ed i 49 metri, utilizzando solo le stilo originali completamente estratte (la loro lunghezza è differente); alimentazione a batteria per tutte. In sintesi:
- la PL310 riceve tutto quello che ricevono sia la DE1102 che la DE1103, anche segnali molto deboli al limite del rumore;
I test sono stati effettuati nelle bande comprese tra i 19 metri ed i 49 metri, utilizzando solo le stilo originali completamente estratte (la loro lunghezza è differente); alimentazione a batteria per tutte. In sintesi:
- la PL310 riceve tutto quello che ricevono sia la DE1102 che la DE1103, anche segnali molto deboli al limite del rumore;
- sui segnali al limite del rumore, l'unico problema è il "soft-mute" (una specie di squelch automatico che introduce 10 dB di attenuazione sull'audio quando non c'è segnale o quando esso è molto basso) che continua a far ballonzolare il livello audio (effetto che gli americani chiamano pumping), cosa che alcuni trovano un po' seccante alla lunga; ma i segnali devono essere veramente deboli;
- la ricezione in SW della PL310 è decisamente migliore di quella della Kchibo KK-S60L (che usa lo stesso chipset);
- i consumi della PL310 sono bassissimi: senza audio consuma 22 mA con l'illuminazione spenta e 28 mA con l'illuminazione accesa; per confronto, la DE1102 consuma 47 mA e la DE1103 quasi 100 mA !!
- come ultima prova, ho connesso 4 metri di filo come antenna "esterna" e la radio li ha retti senza problemi: nessun sovraccarico nè intermodulazione.
Direi che - visto il prezzo - è veramente un ottimo acquisto !!

Glenn Hauser logs November 20-21, 2009
** ALBANIA [and non]. R. Tirana on new frequencies: 7430, Nov 20 the 2100-2130 English broadcast fairly good on portable and in the clear with music at 2122 check. Stronger than whatever is on 7425. Should be fine with an external antenna, escaping R. Farda usurpation clash on 7520. Weaker on // 9895.
UT Nov 21 at *0000 the Albanian sesquihour to NAm now on new 6130, escaping the Habanic usurpation of 6110. R. Tirana theme music in the clear.
Adjacents 6125 and 6135 no problem (the latter with het between presumed VOR via Tajikistan in Portuguese to Brasil, and off-frequency R. Santa Cruz, MUCH closer to the destination, in Bolivia. And no TADIL-A bonking between 6130 and 6135, thankfully, now.
Propagation from Europe poor overall tonight, and R. Tirana // 7425 alternative needed; at 0040 check a bit better than 6130.
English at 0130-0145 is also on 6130 ex-7425, poor but still in the clear with not yet updated frequency schedule announcement. Repeat at 0245-0300 also on new 6130, fair reception at 0248 check in news (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ANGUILLA. 6090, DGS on the air Nov 21 at 0009, so no clear channel for Ethiopia/Nigeria/Brasil likely tonight nor occupancy of 11775 instead like the night before past 0700 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake Nov 21 at 0024: poor on 13970, fair but fluttery on 10210; unfound in the 14 MHz band (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COLOMBIA. 5910, Marfil Estéreo missing, during my 06-07 UT monitoring session Nov 20, but on the air with typical peppy music Nov 21 at 0005 check. Are they voluntarily non-24 hours now? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COSTA RICA. 2859.8, R. San Carlos harmonic, 2 x 1430v, Nov 21 at 0003 fair at peaks in Spanish; same for music 0026, and at 0031 rapid DJ with ID in passing. Nothing there at 0248 check; reported to close awfully early around 0200, 8 pm local (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CROATIA [and non]. 23 hours after all those TA carriers I found, including definite audio from Zagreb on 1134, just some carriers, no audio, Nov 21 at 0048-0052 in 9-kHz bandscan: 945, 1134, 1179, 1521 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. RHC language usage check UT Nov 21 at 0009: 6000 in Spanish as expected. At 0058, 6140 was already on // 6120, 6110, 6060, 6000.
O, 6140 in new official schedule is supposed to start at 0000 now, but so is 11760, which was not on during this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ECUADOR [non]. HCJB via Chile, 11920, Nov 21 at 0023 in Brazilian with typical predication, ``crucify him, crucify him!`` Get over it. Seems produced with reverb/echo on the audio, surely not long / shortpath.
Retune 0044 to see if they sign off as per some schedules: yes, and mentioned they were radiating via CVC in Chile, ``despedimos; boa noite,`` 0045 to open carrier a few sex and off. Did not say when they would resume, and I`ve yet to find if or when the Kulina first-nation-language quarterhour now outgoes.
Closing timecheck was 21:45 as HCJB is still not up to speed with Brazilian DST making it 22:45 in most of the country including Brasília. Months ago, last summer, we also heard HCJB giving one-hour-off `local` timechex for Brasil. So out of touch with their audience. Or, they deliberately refuse to acknowledge stupid DST? In that case, Right on! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 4910, WWCR difference mix at 0012 Nov 21, 9980 minus 5070 with music and talk respectively. Poor signal QRMing CODAR. By now, 9980 itself fading down, no longer the daytime supersignal, making 4910 more likely to be a genuinely transmitted mixing product rather than receiver overload, and many others have reported WWCR 4910. No sign of 4755 lately. Seems to be regular on 3240 now, tho maybe still experimental as some have heard them asking for reports on that.
BTW, WWRB now wants to use 3240 after WWCR shifts to 3215 at 0200, since some receivers don`t tune down to 3185 or 3145. Wouldn`t it be less confusing if each one used the same frequency thruout rather than swapping back and forth? But WWRB as usual is trying to take advantage of a channel pioneered by WWCR if it proves to be suitable for NIB usage, on its coattails opening that up to all other US SW stations (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. 7407-7408 or so, distorted FMy blob in Cuban Spanish discussion, Nov 21 at 0018. No sharp carrier to downpin. Not // VOA Spanish 5890, 9885; República 9810, nor RHC Spanish all over 49m, so presumed Radio Martí, 7405 transmitter very out of order. Is no one paying attention at Greenville? Heavy jamming on 6030, so without a second receiver handy, hard to be certain of // and nothing much on 9825.
However, uplooked later, 7405 is taking a Martí-break at 0000-0300, with 7365 scheduled during these two sesquihours instead; not remembering that, I did not check it, but surely jammed too as it was when finally tuned at 0140.
What I was hearing on 7407-7408 must have been a spur from 7365 instead, or 7365 way mistuned. Even so, it was the `best` signal audible from Radio Martí, unjammed! Next check 0131: 7405 normal with VOA Special English as scheduled and no more 7407-7408 to QRM that.
Propagation was outdropping during the 00-01 hour, but checking VOA Spanish on 5890, 9885 a few times therein, both were poor but 9885 somewhat better and DentroCuban jamming if any not definitely audible (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9820 with at least two stations at 0035 Nov 21 including hum/buzz. The three possibilities per Aoki are Voice of Beibu Bay Radio, Nanning; CNR2 Xianyang 594; and of course Brasil`s R. Nove de Julho. Odd one out is probably 594 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Glenn Hauser logs November 19-20, 2009
** ALBANIA. Radio Tirana is making some frequency changes as of November 20/UT 21 to resolve interference or propagation problems,
all 100 kW Shijak, UT:
2001-2030 Italian 6000 ex-6155, Mon-Sat, non-direxional
2100-2130 English to Europe 7430 ex-7520, Mon-Sat, 300 degrees
0000-0130 Albanian to North America 6130 ex-6110, daily, 300 degrees
0130-0145 English to North America 6130 ex-7425, Tue-Sun, 300 degrees
0245-0300 English to North America 6130 ex-7425, Tue-Sun, 300 degrees
Reports will be welcome, especially from North America (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ANGUILLA [and non]. 11775, PMS inbooming S9+20 at 0606 Nov 20, while 6090 is supposed to be the night frequency for Caribbean Beacon. Transmitter must be stuck again, or neglected by the frequency-changer. Not surprising it`s well-heard this night, as Cuba also inbooming on 11760. At 0622, nothing on 6090 but seems DRM spreading from hi side, 6100? By 0633 the DRM was coming from the lo side, 6085 and DGS had replaced PMS on 11775, as she takes turns with The Dead.
Luckily, running 11775 during the hours it is supposed to be on 6090, 22-10 UT, does not cause too many problems; only R Free Asia via Tinian is scheduled at 22-24. In fact there are more collisions during the time CB is supposed to be on 11775, 10-22, which were not avoided in coordination, i.e. AIR 1215-1430, +ChiCom jamming, and VOA 1530-1830.
Next check at 1500 found 11775 missing, so are they running the schedule in reverse? By then could not be sure whether 6090 was on, but could detect a carrier at 1704, and 11775 still off at 1712. Further SE, 6090 should be audible in daytime as CFRX 6070 and RHC 6110 are all-day, weakly, even here.
As for the QRDRM, DRM-DX.DE shows Romania on 6100 until 0626, while BR Ismaning, Germany is on 6085 before and after (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** AUSTRALIA. As RA in English was incoming well on 13630, 15160 and 15240, I could also hear it but much weaker on 15415, Nov 20 at 0603. At first thought it was Tok Pisin, but then registered as scheduled Indonesian with which it bears some similarity; 329 from Shep, per Aoki (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BIAFRA [non]. 15665, V. of Biafra International, reconfirmed still here for the Friday 19-20 broadcast via WHRI, Nov 20 around 1910 with English news in usual broad African accent (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA [and non]. On a whim, thought I would check my favorite Firedrake frequencies much earlier than usual, Nov 20 at 0610, and there they were! 8400 JBA, 9000 barely audible, and much better achieving fair reception on not // 10210. These are probably all 24 hours a day, tied up by tiny SOH ham transmitters on Taiwan.
BTW, Alokesh Gupta forwards a new (? dated Nov 18) article about Sound of Hope from the Epoch Times:
Sending Shortwaves of Hope from Manhattan to China
By Matthew Robertson, Epoch Times Staff
http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/content/view/25385/
which claims: `` SOH later boosted its signal strength and broadcast hours, and their signal now is mostly free from disruption.`` Make that: disrupted to the point of inaudibility (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CROATIA [and non]. Bandscanning on the way home from an Enid Public Schools 6-band concert and fiesta dinner (i.e. taco salad), UT Nov 20 at 0115, I was hearing tell-tale hets on the caradio 10-kHz-only tuning, indicating Trans-Atlantix were in on 1215, 1134 and 756 kHz, so ahome I quickly switched to the direxional DX-398, set-to-9-kHz-on-MW, and on battery power to minimize line noise.
1134 immediately provided musical and talk audio at 0120 and // 7375 via Germany, so Hrvatski Radio, the number-one TA, is a definite. Monitoring on a single receiver, I could not evaluate the delay. Also // at some further chex, 0139, 0150. However it faded in between, leaving nothing but IBOC noise, presumably from KMOX 1120, tnx a lot!
Between 0120 and 0200 I repeatedly scanned the MW band and detected many more TA carriers, but no audio. I could make educated guesses about the most likely sources, but will refrain. I will put them in frequency order here, not the order heard, most more than once:
549, 621, 639, 693, 711, 819, 855, 882, 891, 909, 972, 999, 1089, 1179, 1215, 1251, 1269, 1341, 1359, 1431, 1521 (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also JAPAN [and non]
** CUBA. 6140, Nov 20 at 0622 check was in RHC English instead of Spanish; the other 49m outlets nominal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also VENEZUELA [non]
** INDIA. AIR Aligarh 9470 distortion blob Nov 19 at 1425: 9475-9500, peaking on 9485 against something, but RA 9475 almost unscathed on the edge of today`s range. 9485 during this hour is YFR in English via Irkutsk, due south for Indonesia, so everybody there dying to hear Brother Droning is no doubt cursing the Indians, i.e. no one.
Congratulations! Nov 20 at 1507 check, 9470 back to normal frequency and modulation // AIR music on much stronger Bengaluru 9425; ditto at 1700 recheck. But we know better than to assume the blobmitter has been fixed or replaced for good.
11620 with Indian pop vocal music, Nov 20 at 1713, fair with flutter. Aoki says it`s the Russian service at 1615-1715, 335 degrees from Bangaluru, and thus also USward. Should have kept listening another biminute to confirm language in sign-off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** JAPAN [and non]. After detecting all the TA carriers the previous evening --- see CROATIA [and non], I was motivated to look for Trans-Pacific MW the morning of Nov 20. Again with the DX-398 set on 9-kHz spacing, and on battery power inside the house with some noise but in the quietest spot I could find, too cold outside, I stepped thru all the channels with BFO on, and could hear the same pitch het on most of the appropriate frequencies, except as noted, but too weak for any audio, except as noted. (The LSB/SSB is slightly offset on this receiver, which is convenient for this purpose, altho I could zero it by taking off the faceplate and adjusting a pot.) It helped to switch between LSB and USB to minimize QRM from the NAm 10-kHz-spaced stations. In two or three scans between 1230 and 1245 UT, all these carriers were looping NW/SE more or less, using internal ferrite antenna only, just as the TA ones had been NE/SW:
558, 567, 576, 594, 603, 648, 666, 693, 702, 711, 729, 738, 747, 756, 774, 828, 846, 855, 873, 882, 891, 945, 972, 981, 1008, 1044, 1053, 1134, 1143, 1179, 1242, 1251, 1323, 1475, 1593.
The strongest ones were on 774 and 972, so I went back and listened to those for a while to see if I could pull any audio. Now I have plugged in the AC adapter, since the batteries are getting weak.
747, at 1252, yes! Bits of clearly enunciated English by YL, apparently language lesson, mixed with Japanese, and music riffs, cues to speak in the lessons.
972, at 1254, some audio, think it was Korean as expected but not positive.
1098, circa 1300 add another frequency with a carrier.
855, at 1308, stepping thru the scan with BFO on, this one was a different pitch, obviously off-frequency, not sure which side.
774, at 1310, definitely in Japanese.
The big 500 kW NHK Radio 2 stations on 747 and 774 were expected to be the easiest catches here in deep NAm, as they have been before. This is the educational network which includes some foreign languages, altho WRTH 2009 does not mention LL: English. 747 is JOIB Sapporo, Hokkaido and 774 is JOUB Akita, on the far side of northern Honshu.
855, the off-frequency one is surely KOREA NORTH, as in http://www.myradiobase.de/mediumwave/mwoffset.txt
``855.055 KRE KCBS Pyongyang Pangsong (Sangwon) 2100-2030 [855.0454-] 20090110``. WRTH 2009 lists this as 500 kW in the Asia/Pacific list; not in the domestic sexion page 253-254, but in the international sexion page 446, as apparently for S Korea and // SW 3250, 3320, 4405, 6250, 6285, 6400, 9325 and several MW frequencies.
972 is surely the 1500 kW KBS station HLCA in Dangjin, KOREA SOUTH.
1475 (definitely not on-channel 1476) is surely the 700 kW RTM Labuan, in Tuaran, Sabah, MALAYSIA which per WRTH is only on air at 1100-1330.
Could make educated guesses about many of the others, but I`ll stop there. Local sunrise was 1314 UT (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. As I was MW-bandscanning for TA carriers, I was distracted by some Mexicans on even frequencies which further east are dominated by Cubans.
710, Nov 20 at 0143, atop the het from 711, quite an adstring, phone numbers, typical Mexican addresses --- street names such as Reforma, Cuauhtémoc, Obregón appear in every Mexican town so are of no use at all in local IDing below the country-level. Never could get anything more definite. 0145 to live announcer who talked for a few minutes. I thought I heard an ID go by just as I tuned in, last letter of callsign being -M (or maybe -N), but that doesn`t fit. Direxion roughly SW from OK, which points to one station each listed by Callarman in Chihua2, Sonora, Sinaloa. XEDP Cuauhtémoc, Chihuahua is closest, and I was also getting that state on 1180, but 710 is supposed only 100 watts at night; not enough to go on.
Another one on 1180, atop the het from 1179, where it`s nice to hear neither Cuba nor Cuba [non], Nov 20 at 0131, timecheck for 6:31, temp 18 grados centígrados, so it`s in the MST zone. At 0156, ``Romántica 11-80`` slogan, 0200 YL DJ. Callarman 2008 list shows the only 1180 with that slogan is XEDCH, Ciudad Delicias, Chihuahua, which is in MST, and the temp is credible for that area SE of Chihuahua city. WRTH 2009 upbacks these assumptions (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO [and non]. Finally on Nov 20 I managed to tune in XEPPM 6185 a bit earlier to check QRM from Vatican which nominally closes at 0620, much more reliably than when Brasília opens on same. At 0614 I was hearing XEPPM on top, instead of music, historical narrative about Obregón punxuated with gunshot SFX. A rippling SAH from CVA since XEPPM is off-frequency. VR and the SAH just disappeared around 0619, leaving Radio Educación in clear as they had moved on to a burrito recipe(!). Where`s the eclectic music? Did not get back to frequency until 0632 by when jazz piano; 0636 RNA starts cutting on and off a few times and then stays on ruining XEPPM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** RUSSIA. As I tuned across 9840 early in the 0600 UT hour Nov 20, I was hearing VOR in English unimpeded // weaker 9855 both from DVR sites, but at 0640, 9840 was in Russian, R. Rossii way over barely audible VOR. As complained before, Russians vs Russians, ruining reception of VOR English to NAm by using same frequency circa Moscow. See also RWM log (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** RUSSIA. 4996, Nov 20 at 0627 binary timecode signals, maybe at the rate of 10 per second? Seems transmitted in straight CW, 0630 into solid carrier, quite weak but separable from WWV. Surely RWM Moscow.
9996, Nov 20 at 0658 found same binary signals as a semihour earlier, and stronger here, also less QRM from weaker WWV/H 10000. Format also matches with solid carrier from 0700 to 0708, and did not detect any minute markers, but surely there was something. Nothing audible 0708-0709, but 0709-0710 sent RWM ID multiple times on CW – just ``RWM``, no V, CQ or DE. 0710 finally started conventional timesignals with second-pips, but some of them were double just before bottoms of minutes, continuing past 0713 when I quit.
This reception correlates well with R. Rossii Moscow-area site on 9840 at same time. WRTH shows both RWM frequencies as 5 kW, 24 hours; also 24h on 8 kW 14996 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 15580, VOA News Now in English, Nov 20 at 1710, VG S9+20, too strong to be anything but Greenville, which we thought in B-09 was being employed on this frequency only for Music Mix at 21-22. Now it`s also 94 degrees at 17-18, ergo 274 degrees offbackward too (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Six days after evangelist Bernie Lazar ``Tony Alamo`` Hoffman was sentenced to 175 years in prison for multiple child sexual abuse, WINB breezes along like nothing has happened, still broadcasting him Nov 19 at 1620 check on 13570, no doubt one of three weekdaily hours devoted to him. Not distorted this time, but carrier as usual is slightly unstable, obvious with BFO on (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WRMI inbooming on 9955 in the nightmiddle, S9+20, no jamming audible, Nov 20 at 0608, W&W in Wirelight talk, no doubt on the reactivated NW antenna this UT Friday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WYFR, 9355 in Italian, Nov 20 at 0609, with no underlanguage audible even at long pauses, after three nights of such transmitted crosstalk, and one night not checked.
YFR is getting to be as bad as CRI, showing up everywhere and dashing hopes for something more interesting, but keeps VTC et al. in business: 9530, Nov 20 at 1701 choral music sounded Russian style, but then www.familyradio URL, and ``Mighty Fortress is our Bog`` theme music. However, this hour is scheduled as Arabic via Rampisham. Having rapidly lost interest, did not stay with it any further to determine which language would axually be used.
The same can be said of 17505, some African language, VG S9+15 signal Nov 20 at 1708, along with some hum. But this is Aoki-listed merely as English YFR via Ascension, 250 kW, 102 degrees. They often start a new transmission with English until they are ready to inaugurate a new exotic language, but which? Target area is Zambia/Zimbabwe/Botswana. This transmission is not listed in any language in the seemingly comprehensive YFR schedule via DXLD 9-079, nor in EiBi (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 17775, KVOH, Nov 20 at 1706 at S9+22, enough to bring with it signs of the spur circa 17920 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA [non]. RNV CI, 11680 via CUBA, missing as I tuned in at 1517 Nov 19. Hmm, I had heard it earlier in the hour. And again when it popped back on at 1518. Start calculating the refunds, RHC. Nahh, RNV not likely to notice, as they don`t even know this broadcast exists: just listen to their totally outdated schedule announcements in every transmission.
Next day Nov 20 I was listening to 11680 at 1500 when RHC Spanish frequency announcement started, abruptly cut to RNV in broken English YL (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 11435, huge carrier at S9+30 or so, mostly open, but every 5 minutes would transmit some kind of digital data noise, Nov 20 at 0604, 0609, 0614, 0619, 0624. This was even stronger than RHC on 11760, only S9+25, and presumably from CUBA too. 11435 was enough to desensitize several dekakHz around it by its mere presence. It went off at 0628:30.
Nothing was on 11532 while 11435 was on, but at next pass thru 11 MHz at 0652, 11532 big open carrier was hetting WYFR 11530, but 11532 went off at 0653*. Theory is they are same transmitter, or at least both from the DentroCuban spy centre. Similar huge signals with numbers in voice or cut numbers in code, and data bursts are heard around this time in the 5.8-5.9 MHz range (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
