** CHINA. Firedrake June 21, before 1300:
12320, fair at 1255
13920, fair at 1256
14700, good at 1257
14950, very good at 1257
15555, good at 1258
16100, very good at 1258
16980, very good at 1258
17170, fair at 1259; none in the 18s

Before 1330:
 7365, poor at 1319 with flutter // 15565. Unusual on this band, especially 
7365 which is scheduled this hour with VOA Cantonese via Thailand, and the 
Beijing ChiCom don`t normally bother to jam this minority language! Getting 
tougher, even more paranoid?
15485, fair at 1310
15560, fair at 1310, ex-15555 above
15565, good at 1320, ex-15560

Before 1400:
 7365, JBA at 1357; see above
15495, good at 1349
15605, fair at 1320

After 1400:
13430, fair at 1423 vs CODAR; recently new, first heard in May; wondered if it 
was a punch-up error by SOH or FD for previous 13130
14700, fair at 1422
15605, fair at 1403; this one only stayed on from before 1400 above
15615, very poor at 1412, ex-15605, and WEWN is missing
17450, fair at 1420
17565, poor at 1420 with CCI; so V of Tibet via Madagascar is here today 
instead of 17560 or 17570
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 11860, June 21 at 1356, RHC Spanish is very undermodulated, tho 
strength is only a little less than OK 11760 // synchronized from same site. It 
was that way too much earlier in the hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING 
DIGEST)

** CYPRUS. 15490-15515, June 21 at 0453, OTH radar pulses, presumed from here, 
like 24 hours earlier, but this time no matching twin area a few hundred Hz 
higher (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA. 13695, June 21 at 1203, S Asian pop music, good with flutter: no news 
on the hour/half hour here, AIR`s Tamil service at 1115-1215, 500 kW, 108 
degrees from Bengaluru per Aoki (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ITALY. UNIDENTIFIED. 10000, June 21 at 1210, as I tune across, hear some 
music and talk in unID language --- could it be the new Italian station widely 
heard in Europe, Italcable? Probably not, as peaking preselector got rid of it, 
so overload from some other signal on 31m, maybe WTWW; see U S A. 

Italcable, which used to transmit point-to-point voice mirrors on SW 
sesquidecades ago, merged with something else, and now someone has acquired 
that name and put a transmitter on 10 MHz with time signals and even music! See 
<http://www.italcable.it>
That site is registered to one Marco Volpe in Viareggio, and the location is in 
grid square JN53DV. See also Andrea Lawendel`s blog:
<http://radiolawendel.blogspot.de/2012/06/10-mhz-nelle-onde-corte-sempre-piu.html>
translated if necessary and especially the comments appended, where Marco says 
it`s not a pirate. 

Anyhow, our best chances for hearing this are during the minutes when neither 
WWV nor WWVH is making an announcement or intoning, such as this one, 10 
minutes past the hours. I wish I had a handy list of when all of them are 
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KUWAIT. 15540, June 20 at 1820, R. Kuwait is back in English, just as I tune 
in, ``in the name of God, most gracious`` by pompous host of the Islamic 
evangelism show, still a rarity on SW compared to all the infidel Christians 
doing it. 1821 on to western pop music; 1830 & 1836 news theme bracketing YL in 
English, but too poor to copy; 1836 back to C&W song now, ``Tell Her I Love 
Her``. Next check 2040, still in pop music rather than Qur`an. Who knows what 
they will put on this 18-21 UT transmission from one day to another (Glenn 
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. Sporadic-E analog TV DX June 20: Just as I am starting my WORLD OF 
RADIO 1622 recording session, June 20 at 1905 UT, notice CCI on ch 2 and 3 in 
Spanish from south. All I can do is keep one eye on the monitor and 
occasionally check as I pause, but nothing definite IDed, and it was a pretty 
good opening with signals soon up to ch 4 and 5 from 1907 for quite a while, in 
and out, all gone by 2037 (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 17530, June 21 at 1325, open carrier and brief tonetest, off, typical 
behaviour of IBB Greenville checking out creaky transmitter, hours before 
needed for later transmission today (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9479, June 21 at 1214, WTWW-1 is already on with SFAW discussing 
B-vitamins, usual huge signal causing some overload here on 31m. As of today, 
the switchover time from 5755 has been moved up from 1300 to 1200, and the 
evening switch from 9479 to 5755 had already been moved later from 0000 to 0100 
UT, due to the current paucity of darkness (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING 
DIGEST)

** U S A. WEWN anomalies, June 21: 15615, English channel absent at 1350, so no 
QRM to Firedrake; see CHINA. WWCR 15825 was inbooming with sporadic E help from 
approx. same distance in somewhat different direxion; 1412 still no trace of 
WEWN on 15615. Spanish frequencies at 1424: 12050 distorted and crackling; 
11550 better, breaking up less (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1622: completed in time for first airing UT Thursday 
June 21 on 9955 WRMI; repeats: Sat 0800, 1500, 1730; Sun 0800, 1530, 1730; Mon 
0500, 1130. Also:

Thu 2100 on 9479 WTWW; UT Fri 0330v on 5050 WWRB; UT Sat 0130v on 5110v-CUSB 
Area 51 via WBCQ; UT Sun 0400 on 5755 WTWW. Full schedule including FM, 
webcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7077, June 21 at 1221, ``polytone`` transmissions, presumably 
hams using this strange mode. First one heard has very regular alternation of 
several tones, each lasting the same amount of time. Seems to be regular AM, 
with this as modulation, rather than CW cutting carrier on and off. Finishes 
and a much weaker signal replies. At 1226 a different one comes on with tones 
which are much faster and less regular; the last note prolonged before cutting 
carrier. This is not Morse code being sent in A2 instead of A1, but must be 
conveying messages somehow. Polytone is what Richard W Parker, PA called this 
in a log on 80 m which he thought was spy-numbers, but doubtful within the ham 
band, tho I don`t find any use of polytone in ham radio terminology, rather in 
music. What is this really called and how does it work? How are the tones 
generated? Probably mechanically or electronically, altho playing a flute, 
recorder or keyboard would suffice. The
 7077 area is a favorite for this stuff at many different hours. The ARRL 
bandplan is far too vague:

CALENDAR OF mostly SW SPECIALS, FAREWELLS

Dates, days and times are strictly UT

Note: this thing is getting bigger and bigger, and I apologize for the 
repetition, but changes and new info keep coming in. The idea is to read and 
refer to the latest version and discard the previous ones. Perhaps I should 
just announce each update to all the groups with a link to the more 
user-friendly copy on my website?

UPDATE SUMMARY since last edition:

Sackville relays may continue for certain stations beyond June 24; still 
confused. Radio Nord Revival, Sweden, June 30, but maybe other dates in a 
2-week period. More on Antarctic special June 21. Plans for pirate radio night 
July 6-7. Specific last broadcast from Bush House July 12.

MONDAY JUNE 18 +

This is the final week for Radio Canada International, probably also for CBC NQ 
9625, and relays via Sackville. You may want to make an effort to listen more 
than usual before the Last Days scheduled below.

THURSDAY JUNE 21

2130-2200 British Antarctic Survey special, 9850 & 5950 Skelton UK, 7360 
Ascension; or possibly on WED JUNE 20 instead [since this year the solstice 
occurs at 2309 UT June 20!]

UPDATE: Wolfgang Bueschel asked Martin Goulding of BaBcoCk Woofferton which 
date is correct, and he replied June 22 = Friday! We can only suggest trying 
June 20, 21 and if still not heard, 22. BTW, HFCC shows that KBS in French via 
France is on 5950 at 20-22, but EiBi and Aoki say only 20-21.

UPDATE: Christian Ghibaudo and Harry Brooks each asked BBCWS Audience Relations 
for the correct info, and they confirmed it would be as above on JUNE 21.

UPDATE: details on the broadcast on 21 June 2012:

FRIDAY JUNE 22

CBC Radio One starts its summer schedule today:

http://www.cbc.ca/radiosummer/

with a number of new programs for the next couple of months; all webcast five 
times, once for each zone. Tnx Daniel Say via Mike Cooper.

1800-1900 on 7290: Radio City make-good broadcast via IRRS via Romania; see 
also Saturday

2100 until 2100 SATURDAY JUNE 23 "MidsummerRadio", special from Scandinavian 
Weekend Radio, Finland, low power on 25 and 49m; hard to hear beyond Europe

http://www.swradio.net/index2.htm

UPDATE: Alan Pennington refers to this page

http://www.swradio.net/schedule.htm

which says the 25m frequencies will not be used for this (since they are in 
white), but shows which hours for 6170 and 5980

SATURDAY JUNE 23

0900-1000 on 9510: Radio City make-good broadcast via IRRS via Romania; see 
also Friday

1200-1214, final Vatican Radio English via Sackville: 13730

SUNDAY JUNE 24

0000-0059 Maple Leaf Mailbag, finale from RCI: 11700 via Kunming

1500-1559 Maple Leaf Mailbag, finale from RCI: 11675 via Kunming; 15125 via

http://www.hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=A12&broadc=RCI

June 24 also appears to be the final day on air for Sackville relays of other 
stations. It is unclear whether all of these will be gone once the UT day June 
25 starts, but assuming they are, listen UT June 24:

NHK World Radio Japan: English 0500-0530 on 6110, 1200-1230 on 6120; Japanese 
0200-0500 5960; 1300-1500 11655

Vatican Radio: English 0250-0315, Spanish 0320-0400 both on 7305, 9610; Spanish 
1130-1214 13730

Voice of Vietnam: English 0100-0130, 0230-0300, 0330-0400 on 6175; Vietnamese 
0130-0230 6175; Spanish 0300-0330 & 0400-0430 6175; Vietnamese 0430-0530 9555

KBS World Radio, English: 0230-0300 9560, 1200-1300 9650; Spanish 0200-0230 
9560, 0600-0700 6045; Korean 1400-1500 9650

China Radio International: who cares? Too many and plenty will be left from 
elsewhere

Radio Rep?blica, 2300-0200 on 9490 [or only until 0000?]

UPDATE: There's an updated HFCC file at 
http://www.hfcc.org/data/a12/index.phtml today. Running a comparison shows RCI 
entries now have an ending date of 6/24, with the exception of the entry on 
9625 for the Northern Quebec Service and the entries for KBS. I now understand 
KBS, Babcock and NHK will stay until Oct 31, Vatican relays will end July 31, 
China R. International relays end 6/24, Rep?blica relay will end 6/25 at 0200 
(Dan Ferguson, June 21)

Our inspexion of HFCC-all data as of June 21 disagrees: Everything from RCI via 
Sackville or elsewhere ending 6/24 (except via S Korea still showing until 
10/28); Rep?blica 9490 ends 6/25, but all the others are shown continuing the 
rest of A-12 to the end of October. But some of this info may not have been 
updated yet in this reference. See also

0830-0900 Fiji Democracy & Freedom Movement, 11565 via WHRI, weekly

This is the final week for Radio Netherlands. You may want to make an effort to 
listen more than usual before the Last Show special scheduled below

Just a timely reminder that the original schedule for the AWR relay from 
Trincomalee in Sri Lanka showed that these broadcasts would end on June 30. A 
special QSL card is available, and also a rare (these days) QSL stamp. 
Available only from the AWR address in Indianapolis.

Scheduling from the Trincomalee Relay Station, 125 kW

0000 - 0100 11955, 1100 - 1200 15540, 1200 - 1300 15490, 1300 - 1400 17635,

For more details visit http://www.pcjmedia.com

Keith Perron on Facebook: Some of the voices you will hear include Jerry Cowan, 
Nevil Grey and John van den Steen plus many others. We will take a listen to 
some moments from RNW from the late 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s. This includes a 
visit to the original Radio Netherlands building and more.

A bit cheeky to schedule this at the same time as RN`s own Last Show!

0159-0257 RNW`s Last Show special to ENAm, 6165-Bonaire [not 11640]

0259-0357 RNW`s Last Show special to CNAm, 6165-Bonaire

0459-0557 RNW`s Last Show special to WNAm, 6165-Bonaire; NZ/SEAu 12015-Bonaire

In case there are any further changes from the `final` schedule:

http://www.rnw.nl/english/article/were-changing

Will Tom Meyer appear on this one? He does in Spanish:

1000-1057, RNW farewell broadcast in Indonesian: 17840 & 21485 Madagascar, 
15300 & 15565 Sri Lanka; maybe also at 1100, 2100 [or June 28]

1330-1430 RNW Spanish farewell program with live video stream, including 
interview with Tom Meyer; repeated on SW the following evening on usual 
frequencies; see SAT

1400-1457 RNW`s Last Show special to Asia, 9800-Sri Lanka

1900-2057 RNW`s Last Show Special to Af 15495-Vatican [maybe audible in NAm]. 
2057 UT is really The End, for English

SATURDAY JUNE 30

0000-0057 & 0100-0157, RNW Spanish Farewell program [that`s what they say, 
unlike English which will end the previous night. Also check UT Friday June 29 
in case that is correct date for Spanish too], 6165- Bonaire. See

http://www.rnw.nl/espanol/radioshow/cartasrn-en-v%C3%ADsperas-del-%C3%BAltimo-programa

RADIO NORD REVIVAL

will be on the air one last time to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the 
closure of offshore station Radio Nord on June 30th, 1962. Our license runs for 
two weeks from June 25 and the following frequencies will be used:

SW 5895 and 6065 kHz with 10 kW of power from Sala, SWEDEN, one frequency at a 
time.

MW 603 kHz (the original Radio Nord channel) with a maximum of 2.5 kW of power 
from Sala. FM 102.7 MHz with a maximum of 100 W from S?dermalm, Stockholm. We 
have also applied for a temporary FM frequency from Sala and hopefully it will 
be cleared soon. We will install the transmitter and aerial for Stockholm on 
Sunday, June 24 and test transmissions can be expected as soon as our license 
period starts.

Further information including QSL address on

http://www.radionordrevival.blogspot.com

(Ronny Forslund, June 21, DXLD)

VATICAN RADIO is also canceling most of its SW and MW broadcasts to Europe, and 
SW to Americas as of July 1. Presumably many of them will last be aired on June 
30, altho the Sackville relays may have ended a week earlier. See

http://www.hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=A12&broadc=VAT

Many of the SMG transmissions to elsewhere are audible in NAm; also via 
Madagascar; and especially BONAIRE: 0030-0200 15470 in Portuguese, Spanish; 
0230-0250 6040, 9610 in French. Since these are after 0000 UT, will their last 
day be UT June 30 or July 1?

UPDATE: VR will continue to the Americas via Bonaire according to its website, 
including 0030 Portuguese 15470 (says Jorge Freitas) and 0230 French 9610 (says 
Jean-Michel Aubier). After 0250, 9610 has been switching to Sackville for 
English, Spanish to 0400.

UPDATE: see info above under June 24, more uncertainty.

2359-2400, LEAP SECOND, the 61-second minute on WWV, WWVH and all the world`s 
timesignal stations. It might be interesting to check whether some of the more 
obscure ones miss it, e.g. in the next few minutes are they one second out of 
step?

PIRATE RADIO NIGHT

http://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/pirate-radio-night.html

I'm planning to organize such event on 6th and 7th of July. I would like to 
invite every pirate broadcaster to take part. It would be great if many 
stations are on air. Here I will publish the list of the stations, I hope at 
least 20 stations from Western and Central Europe will take part (Georgi 
Bancov, Bulgaria blog, via Gary Drew, dxldyg)

THURSDAY JULY 12

The last broadcast from Bush House will be 12 July. Many BBCWS language
