** ASCENSION. 17640, Aug 20 at 1352, BBCWS in English, with long-path echo,
more obvious during brief fades of short-path signal. Is aimed 114 degrees,
away from us, so boosting the long-path portion. Still thus at 1412. Believe I
have previously calculated the LP delay from this site, and the great-circle
path (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** AUSTRALIA. 6020 & 9580, Monday Aug 20 at 1245, R. Australia amid `Media
Report` about undercover reporting. A new time for this show, now appearing on
RA`s Pacific sked; from R. National, available via:
http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/mediareport/
Closest thing to a DX program from RA, now re-added to
http://www.worldofradio.com/dxpgms.html
Mon 1230 6020 6080 6140-Singapore 9475 9580 11945
Mon 1530 5940 5995 7240 9475 11660 11880
Mon 1930 6080 9500 [to Asia only]
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BANGLADESH. 15105, another attempt to hear Bangladesh Betar`s English
broadcast at 1232 Aug 20: no signal here or on the other 15 MHz frequencies.
The band really isn`t open yet except for Cuba. Wolfgang B?schel says BB came
on 15105 at 1222:37, and from 1225 a tone of 1129 Hz.
19m had opened up in time for the next broadcast on 15105: at 1309 I find some
lo hum and a hi-pitched tone approx. C#6 which would be 1109 Hz: I defer to
Wolfy`s measurement above. At 1312:54 the BB IS starts, which we have come to
recognize easily, 10 notes with a continuous drone (pardon the expression)
including during pauses. NO timesignal; have they seen my critique of its
inaccuracy? 1315:50 opening presumed Nepali as scheduled. At 1345-1347+ it`s
back to the tone. What next?
At 1357, nothing yet on 15505; at 1358, 15105 starts B-B-C- chimes from
Ascension. There is also noise on 15105, from BB carrier? Finally at 1400,
15505 carrier cuts on air late, with fragment of BB IS, ``timesignal`` [not
really] ending at 1400:46! And opening Urdu. Still hear the noise on 15105, so
that must be something else (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake August 20, after 1300:
15670, fair at 1307 mixing equally with Chinese, probably CNR1 jammer, piling
up upon R. Free Asia, Tibetan via Tajikistan
15560, fair at 1307
15485, poor at 1308, het on hi side
Before 1400:
15670, at 1350 only hear CNR1 jammer, maybe a trace of FD; see above
15605, very poor at 1349
15490, poor at 1349, het on lo side
14700, very poor at 1354 with flutter; none in 18s, 17s, 16s, 13s, 12s
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COLOMBIA. 14950.75, August 20 at 0147, Salem Stereo is fair and quite
readable, but unlistenable since it`s the sermon segment (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. 11680, Aug 19 at 2310, RHC in Spanish as usual // 11840.
Grayson Watson in Dallas says he was hearing ``the English hour`` on 11680, two
days earlier, Aug 17 on 11680. The 23-24 UT English is supposed to be only on
5040, which is no good here that early vs summer noise levels, so 11680 must
have been a SNAFU, which certainly improved reception. It could happen again?
5955, Aug 20 at 0524, pulse jamming is audible here aside RTI/WYFR 5950.
Leftover from much earlier when R. Rep?blica, Costa Rica is on 5954.3v. Despite
being UT Monday during R. Mart? 6-hour silent period, at 0526 check, full
wall-of-noise jamming is still running on 6030 and 7405, so the Arnie`s
jammerpals can ruin any chances of hot DX on 6030. 9955 also has rapid pulse
jamming, against only a trace of me, maybe on WRMI.
9490, Aug 20 at 1256, lite pulse jamming, leftover from R. Rep?blica in the
evenings, bothering VOA Korean weak signal until its abrupt 1258*, via Tinian
as in HFCC, not Thailand as in Aoki; and // but not synchronized 15775 via
Tinang, which was much weaker than usual. I`m sure the Cuban jamming was no
`help` inside North Korea, but thanks for trying (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDIA. 15045-15050-15055, Aug 20 at 1348, I lament that AIR Sinhala service,
which we used to hear sometimes with nice music on AM has not defaulted to that
lately; now I can barely detect DRM noise there. How many DRM listeners can
they possibly have in Sri Lanka? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MYANMAR [and non]. 7110, Myanmar Kachin Radio, as called by Aoki, Aug 20 at
1234 music and some talk sounds like Myanmarianese, poor signal but slightly
better than usual; maybe conditions are improving. Much of the time with two
different ham CWQRMs, one from a W-zero. Aoki shows this in Burmese/dialect at
1030-1430; plus 1430-1500 English, then called Thazin Radio Pyin Oo Lwin; as
well as in the local mornings the same 50 kW transmitter at 356 degrees from
Naypyidaw carries the Myanmar Rakhine Broadcasting Station, 2330-0030 in Chin,
0030-0130 in Kachin (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. Re previous report about Mundo Fox on my local KXOK-LD: these RF
vs virtual channels are so confusing, I wrote RF 32 in this part of the report
when I meant RF 31, now corrected:
``But UT Aug 19 around 0430, I notice that Kansas tropo is up with KHCC 90.1 R.
Kansas `Nightcrossings`, their very nice music show along the lines of `Hearts
of Space` with e.g. Vangelis, overriding KCSC in OK. So I turn the DTV antenna
toward the north to check what else may be in; instead as I tune thru the
channels I notice that MundoFox is now showing up on my local Enid KXOK-LD RF
31 as 31-2!``
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ROMANIA. 15210, Sunday Aug 19 at 2052, RRI in English, usual good signal,
second best from Europe on band after Spain 15110, reading reception reports
including SINPOs as if those were of any interest to the general audience, 2054
outro as `DX Mailbag` before sign-off procedure. Someone in NZ had reported a
``DX program`` May 28 at 2047 on 13800; that was a UT Monday. Perhaps he meant
local Monday, really UT Sunday? Just because they use the letters DX in a show
title does not make it a DX program, since it`s only about reception reports to
that station. I checked ``The Week Ahead`` previews on RRI website but this was
never mentioned; perhaps considered a filler, and maybe even dropped in on
unknown days (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5000, Aug 20 I tune in WWV just before 0518 UT to hear the
propagation minute, and to my astonishment, the time is announced a minute fast
as 0519! And no prop info follows. Either my watch and clock are both off a
minute, or WWV is; now which would be more likely?? I quickly tune another
receiver to WWVH on 15000 and monitor the time each announces for the following
minute: 0519, again! Unfortunately I can`t prove this as of course I was not
recording, and even if I were, how could I prove they really said 0519 when it
was 0518? But I know I heard it quite clearly. How could this happen? I should
ask NIST about it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. My QSL direct from the Edward R. Murrow Transmitting station,
Greenville, is now visible as the newest entry at the bottom of my gallery at
http://www.worldofradio.com/QSL.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9980, I don`t go looking for Brother Scare on WWCR-4, but it occurs
to me that this has been missing lately: yes, Sunday Aug 20 at 1912, it`s not
on the air. Supposed current schedule for TOM via 9980: Sun 14-20, M-F 16-20,
Sat 14-19 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12015, Aug 20 at 1912 check, WTWW-3 is missing again (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 15420-CUSB, Aug 19 at 2049, WBCQ is already in honky-tonk fill music
as Global Spirit Proclamation apparently ends well before 2100* (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 7506.4, Aug 20 at 0148, WRNO usual big signal, and modulation is
somewhat suppressed but better than usual, during sermon (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

UNID. 9680.008 UNID. Harmonic?? "The Power Hour" tlk show w/Joyce Riley(??)
from
0935-0957. Gave phone 702-543-8428 Doing a seach shows that's in Laughlin NV.
Came
back later and sounded like a diff. show at 1032. Very very fady, sometimes
very
good, other times gone completely. Gone most of the time. Guess it could be a
harmonic of 1210 or 880. Not heard since. (1 August)
ANGOLA 4949.75 R. Nacional Angola Surprised to find this modulated at a
respectable
level. 0013-0016 studio W anncr interviewing M on phone in PT. More sound bites
to
0022. Canned anmnt by M over mx. More of the same, apparently a nx pgm. Into
lively
LA style Pop mx at 0032. Studio W anncr was even singing at one point. 4 time
ticks
at ToH followed by ID by W anncr, then nx by same W. Unfortunately the signal
faded
some since peaking around 0030. Noisy conditions. Glad to finally ID this. (3
August)
UNID. 12085 UNID. Hrd an anthem-like song mixing in w/V.O. Mongolia IS at 1030.
Could hear W followed by M tlking in CH or similar lang. at 1058 when Mongolia
went
off. Then brief mx bridge and M and W again for a few seconds before 12080 DRM
started at 1059. 5+1 time ticks getting through the DRM at ToH. Beijing?? First
time heard any other stn on this freq at this time other than Mongolia. Wonder
who
that would be. (3 August)
CLANDESTINE 15487 V.O. Tibet (via Tajikistan) 1304 tlk by W. Weak and couldn't
really tell what type of lang. it was. Went off at 1316. Getting too much slop
QRM
from 15485, but it went off at 1315. Was just playing CH mx and thought at
first it
was Firedrake. Must have been a jammer. (3 August)
BOLIVIA 5580.28 R. San Jose 0037 M w/what sounded like a rosary. 0041 lively
mx. M
in definite SP at 0048 but way too much QRN to copy. Haven't hrd this in a
while
and glad to see it back on. LAs doing a better this evening. (4 August)
BRAZIL 15191.49 R. Inconfidencia 0100 canned anmnt by M w/ment of Inconfidencia
followed by usual canned freq anmnt by M. I've heard this canned anmnt several
times now and there is no ID, just freqs given. Nice ID though by live M anncr
at
0103:50. Good and clear. (4 August)
MALI?? 9635 R. Diff. TV du Mali?? 0835 just extremely weak tlk by M. Modulation
too
low to even tell what lang. Strong signal and clear though. Sounded like Pop mx
at
0831. (4 August)
BRAZIL 4805 R. Dif. do Amazonas Already on at 0919 check. Has variable s/on
between
0900-1000. (4 August)
BRAZIL 11830 R. Daqui End of soft ZY song, M w/"R. Daqui AM" ID, and back to
mx.
Nice ID w/Rooster crowing at 1000, then another canned "R. Daqui AM" ID w/freq
by
M, and tlk by M and W w/"bon dia" greetings, then back to soft PT song. Good
signal
but a little slop-over QRM from 11825 Chinese. (5 August)
CLANDESTINE 15725 V.O. South Sudan Revolutionary R. After listening to Nigeria
15120, tuned here at 0504 just in time to catch the EG ID in their opening
routine.
Tlks started at 0507. EG segment at 0527-0555+. Stated fading at 0522. Really
nice
signal early on. (6 August)
PAPUA NEW GUINEA 3345.03 R. Northern 1020-1024 "Lyin' Eyes" by The Eagles. W
anncr
in Tok Pisin but just unreadable. 1024-1032 M anncr w/ment of Friday and
Saturday.
Sounded like EG but no certain. Apparent speech by M at 1032-1039. Not very
strong
and some occas. UTE QRM. Glad to see this one back. (6 August)
PAPUA NEW GUINEA 3315 R. Manus 0904 M w/NBC nx including a remote report by W,
//7324.95 Wantok, 3364.98 Milne Bay, 3345.03 Northern, and possibly 3260
Madang.
"This is NBC news" ID during nx at 0909. Still //Northern, Milne Bay, and
Madang,
and now 3204.97 Sandaun at 0935 w/report on election ballots and political
parties.
Nothing from 6040 or 3385. (7 August)
PAPUA NEW GUINEA 7324.95 Wantok R. Light Possibly ID at 0914 on Wantok.
Definite ID
by live M at 0915:35 acknowledging ltr and addr, then nice ID w/freq at
0916:10.
Couple more IDs at 0918 and "thank you for listening to our program", then
canned
pgm promo and live M returned mentioning you could hear the pgm every Sunday.
(7
August)
UNID. 6160.064 UNID. Found a signal here at 1005. Couldn't get any audio
because of
CKZU so close by, and couldn't try USB because of CKZN above. Russia maybe??
Been
following the Canadians here for the last couple weeks to get a good recording
of
Vancouver and have never heard another signal here. (7 August)
IRAN 11750 V.O. Islamic Rep. of Iran 1947-1953 long nx pgm, current affairs
interview w/member of "Workers Int.", Koran educational pgm, press stories
w/instru. mx between items. ID at 2026 and short nxcast, goodnight, instru. mx,

BELARUS 11730 R. Belarus 2157 W spelling out addr in EG at t/in, then pgm

1031

This is R. Pakistan. The news read by ??. First the headlines.". I was hoping

heard,
they usually don't play it at this time. Sounded like their tape recorder speed
was
varying too!! Like everyone, I have a few IS's that stand out but this is
probably
my favorite. (12 August)

Hi Dave,
No, that would be 2 x 4840 = WWCR, which has the Power Hour on at 07-10 UT M-F.
If it`s extremely strong on 4840, might be receiver-produced overload? But
could also be transmitted.

Dave,
Aoki does list CNR1 jamming on 12085 at 1000-1100 since June 26. No other
possible target than VOM which has Chinese at 1000-1030 before the English.
Looks like retribution, for Mongolia allowing R. Free Asia to broadcast via
there in Tibetan on 7470 and 17730, per Aoki. VOM has only two Mandarin
broadcasts to its big neighbor, 1000-1030 on 12085 and 1430-1500 on 12015: is
that one jammed too?
