Tirana IS at S5, cutting thru some slowly pulsing hum without too much roar. But by 0230 speech modulation, not enough punch to copy English to North America (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** AUSTRIA. 5970, Nov 20 at 0235, S Asian song at S8. Would be nice to get something from, rather than to there, but EiBi shows it`s yet another AWR transmission, in Punjabi to Afghanistan, preceded by Urdu to AFG; I should think Pakistan a more likely target for those languages (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BOLIVIA [and non]. 6134.8 & 6135.2, Nov 20 at 0232, Radio Santa Cruz and Brazil`s R?dio Aparecida making their usual het but obscured by some humroar hash. I tune back and forth but can`t decide which one is producing it. However, likely the stronger one, RSC, and IIRC it has gone haywire before (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BRAZIL. 9664.94, Nov 20 at 0221, Voz Mission?ria with S8 signal better than usual, but dead air, still so at 0240 when I measure it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CANADA. 2749-USB, Nov 20 at 0245, robot YL with weather in English, S8. Starting at 0240 was VCS Halifax via Sambro NS site (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 5025, Nov 20 at 0243, overmodulated and distorted music from R. Rebelde, also splattering (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 9490, Nov 19 at 1321, pulse jamming, far beyond the Radio Rep?blica hours via France, 0000-0259 per HFCC, but maybe only two of those three (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA [and non]. 11860, Nov 19 at 1308, shocked to hear poor signal from RHC instead of Yemen [non], but maybe it`s just overload, from super signal on 11840 fundamental, a frequency which in A-16 had been on air only evenings at 21-05, for Chile. It is definitely accompanied by the same pair of much weaker transmitted parasites on 11850 and 11830. A few minutes later at 1313, Yemen starts to fade in and take over 11860. So is RHC on 11840 in the morning by mistake? Entirely possible. At 1313 it`s S9+40 while 11830 & 11850 are merely S9. Also on: 11760, 9850 and 9820; at 1316, also 9710 and 9640. 9640 does not appear at any hour on the A-16 schedule, still displayed at http://www.radiohc.cu/interesantes/frecuencias but it has really been in use in A-16 and now B-16: Aoki shows it at 11-15 (which would now nominally be 12-16). BTW, the above sked claims English is at 19-20 on 15140, and 20-21 on 11670, both for Chicago --- while it`s really one or the other, not both, depending on DST or not --- and currently it remains on 15140 at 20! Totally screwed up sked (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** INDONESIA. 9525.9, Nov 19 at 1321, no signal at all from VOI. As of Nov 20, Atsunori Ishida http://rri.jpn.org shows it was consistently active, altho variable hours and languages, Nov 1-15, not on Nov 16 and no entries since then (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MADAGASCAR. 17640, Nov 19 at 1830, no signal from MWV; OSOB is VP 17790 WRMIBS, but plenty of signals on 15 MHz band. On but not propagating, or off? Anyhow, MWV is definitely on sometime after 2100 when the Chinese to Europe is well-heard on 11610 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** ROMANIA. 5960 // weaker 7410, UT Sunday Nov 20 at 0236, Romanian folk music during RRI`s French hour. Meanwhile, 5910, Nov 20 at 0238 with violin concerto on RRI`s Romanian service // unchecked 7340 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** TURKEY. 12035, Nov 19 at 1328, no signal from VOT. The sloppyrator at Emirler finally cuts it on in progress at *1332:40, S9-S5, and in proper language English for a change! In yesterday`s report about this, I said ``Officially also scheduled during this hour in A-16 were Urdu and Uyghur.`` But I meant to say ``Officially also scheduled during this hour in B-15 were Urdu and Uyghur`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** UGANDA [non]. 15240, Sat Nov 19 at 1656, poor signal with music, presumably WWRB having started R. Munansi already, from 1600? 1809 and 1830 chex now talk in presumed Luganda, very poor. Last week it was on past 1900, so total span could be 1600-2000 now? At an awkward megameter distance from here, sometimes it`s weak, sometimes it`s very strong (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 5745, UT Sunday Nov 20 at 0240, no signal from VOA Radiogram as scheduled this semihour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1852 monitoring: again, not confirmed on Hamburger Lokalradio, 7265-CUSB, Saturday November 19 after 1531 via the UTwente receiver --- just the collision between two South Asian songs, CRI Hindi talk via Kashgar and Azad Kashmir Radio via Islamabad. Confirmed Sat Nov 19 at 2343, the 2330 broadcast on WBCQ, 9330.030v-CUSB, gh voice barely recognizable. Also confirmed UT Sunday Nov 20 at 0427 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, MO, about 13 minutes into show so started circa 0414. Good but with QRhaM on low side. Next: Mon 0030 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW Mon 0400v WBCQ 5130v Area 51 to WSW Mon 0430 WRMI 9955 to SSE Tue 0030 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW Tue 0030 WRMI 7730 to WNW [off Nov 8 and 15 pending repair] 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. 9840, Nov 19 at 1316, S9+10 open carrier/dead air; surely WHRI which is registered 12-23, but per Aoki using it this early only on weekends; also a lite het, no doubt from perpetually off-frequency VIETNAM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 21610, Nov 19 at 1832, non-BS gospel huxter from WHRI, poor signal with an echo. Unlikely this could be long/short path, maybe instead short path/backscatter (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 9930, Sat Nov 19, I finally tune in early enough for the organ show, before 1900, with other music pr?lude, WTWW ID, and `Theatre Organ of the Ozarx` starting promptly at 1900 --- but it still runs until 1934, so it may not have been starting late, just is a 34-, not 29- or 30-minute show! Heil says we should check the WTWW program schedule. For starters, homepage wtww.us still shows the long-defunct `Midnight [sic] in the Desert with Art Bell`! Sparse schedule page http://wtww.us/pages/schedule.php has nothing about the organ show or much of anything else except SFAW and Bibling Worldwide. But there`s a handy ``search`` field --- no, no results on organ or Heil. This time 9930 stays on with some ham radio show at later chex past 2043. There is always another ham show on 9475 WTWW-1, but these are not // and not synchronized, altho possibly same episode in different playouts. At 2100, 9475 is back on SFAW, but hammy continues on 9930 until -???? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 3195, Nov 20 at 0246, huge dirty S9+50 signal with big hum, buzzy field of spurs at least between 3165 and 3210, with worst peaks circa 3202 and 3188 (plus/minus 7 kHz), from WWRB with same rambling gospel huxter who used to be weekends on 5050, now moved here for winter. First time I`ve heard WWRB on 90m since last spring. Needs some tuning up! See also UGANDA [non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 1540, Nov 19 at 1956 UT on caradio, Spanish ad for Estrella TV Canal 29, which I already matched with KZMP University Park TX. Altho I had IDed this thru my own monitoring research, Wayne Heinen of the NRC AM Log forwards further confirmation of the format flips: ``Glenn, I thought that I had sent this snippet from Radio Insight earlier in the week but found the email stuck in a constipated Outlook outbox: After Deportes Media lost its LMA of Liberman Broadcasting?s 1540 KZMP University Park/Dallas in September, Liberman did bring the network back to the market in mid-October and like iHeart in San Francisco is now operating the network directly. Original Report 11/10: Deportes Media has lost its LMAs of three of the four. Wayne`` Now I`m hearing KZMP less than a sesquihour after local mean noon (always 1832 UT), so a neat reminder that the daytime skywave season is upon us with lowest zenith angles for the next couple months. KZMP is atop some other 1540s (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 1540, Nov 20 at 0252 UT tuneby, ``Radio Jalape?o is giving away Turkeys``, i.e. KEDA San Antonio, easily surpassing KZMP at night (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** VATICAN [non]. 11875, Nov 19 at 1311, Vatican bells tolling, 1312 IS, and shortly off. It`s via US IBB Tinang, PHILIPPINES, violating Separation of Church and State, Chinese at 1230-1300, extended Saturdays only until 1315 per HFCC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search November 19, UT: At 1255: 774-NW, 693-NW, 747-NW? At 1256: 792-WSW At 1258: 1098-W At 1259: 1566-NW I go back to 774 in time for the 1300 NHK timesignal but no copy (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. 9820, Nov 19 at 0606, S9 open carrier/dead air. Nothing in HFCC; EiBi shows Beibu Bay Radio, China on air at this hour, but not Aoki, and it sounds much closer. Possibly Cuba which has resumed using 9820 in the mornings (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) This report dispatched at 0555 UT November 20 ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Sun, 20 Nov 2016 07:34:19 +0100 From: Manuel M?ndez <manuelmend...@gmail.com> To: DX Listenig Digest <d...@yahoogroups.com> Subject: [HCDX] Radio Mi Amigo Special Transmission Message-ID: <922ce2ec-27cb-4499-a312-1db6fb132...@getmailbird.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Manuel M?ndez Lugo, Spain Radio Mi Amigo Special Transmission [Event 27-11] Sunday evening November 27 from 20:00 - 22:00 hrs CET we will do another special event show, this time to promote our new daily transmissions on 6085 kHz.

Durch die ge?nderten Bedingungen im Winter bedingt, haben sich einige Sendezeiten von abends in die Tagesstunden verschoben:http://www.channel292.de/schedule-for-bookings/ und auch einige neue oder bekannte Programme sind (wieder) mit dabei: Hobart Radio aus Australien, aus Schweden SDXF, und aus Deutschland SM Radio Dessau, sowie Blueman Radio. Diese Stationen w?rden sich sicher ?ber Empfangsberichte freuen! An dieser Stelle m?chten wir noch allen Freunden danken, die den WiMo Web SDR aus unserer Werbung bestellt haben; wir hoffen, dass ihr viel Freude damit habt. Dann h?tten wir noch eine Bitte speziell an unsere H?rer im deutsch- sprachigen Raum, aber nicht nur: Anfang 2017 m?chte eine neue Station aus Norddeutschland mit mehreren Stunden pro Tag die Kurzwelle beleben. Hierf?r ist man noch auf der Suche nach einem geeigneten Sendepartner, der ein gutes Signal in Europa erzeugt. Um das herauszufinden, l?uft am Mittwoch, dem 23. November, also in der kommenden Woche, um 14.00 Uhr MEZ ein Testprogramm ?ber unseren Sender. Nat?rlich wird diese Zeit f?r viele H?rer ung?nstig sein, aber alle anderen, die um diese Zeit zuh?ren k?nnen: Bitte schickt Empfangsberichte an die in der Sendung genannte Adresse, und lasst die Station wissen, wie (hoffentlich) gut ihr das Programm auf 6070 kHz empfangen k?nnt! Wenn die Testsendung ein positives Resultat erbringt, w?re das ein wichtiger Schritt f?r unseren Sender, m?glicherweise k?nnten wir dann sogar eine zweite Frequenz im 49 Meter Band freischalten lassen. Wir z?hlen auf euch!! Dear friends, Christmas is near, and our schedule shows, that the holidays are really crowded. Due to the conditions during the winter, some stations moved to daylight hours:http://www.channel292.de/schedule-for-bookings/ and some new or well known programs can be heard (again), too: Hobart Radio from Australia, from Sweden the Swedish DX Federation, from Germany SM Radio Dessau, and Blueman Radio is one more. Surely these stations would be happy to get your reports! And we have a request, not only for the listeners in German speaking areas: Starting in 2017, a new station from the northern part of Germany wants to fill shortwave with life for some hours per day. They are still looking for a good partner to bring their program on air with a good and strong signal. To check this, they run a test program the coming week on Wednesday, the 23rd, at 1400 CET = 1300 UTC on 6070 kHz. We know that for a lot of listeners this will not be a good time to tune in, but all the others, who are able to listen, should send reception reports to the address mentioned in the program. Please let them know how good and strong (as we hope) you receive our signal! If this test for them shows a positive result, it would be a big step forward for our station; maybe we even could run a second frequency in the 49 meter band. We count on you!! Beste vrienden, Kerstmis staat (bijna) voor de deur en zoals je in het programmaschema kunt zien, zijn deze feestdagen bijna volgeboekt. Als gevolg van de veranderde ontvangstcondities in de winter, zijn enkele uitzendtijden op de avond verplaatst naar tijden overdag: http://www.channel292.de/schedule-for-bookings/, maar ook enkele nieuwe of bekende programma's hebben zich (weer) gemeld: Hobart Radio uit Australi?, uit Zweden SDXF en de Duitse SM Radio Dessau en Blueman Radio. Deze stations kijken met erg veel belangstelling uit naar ontvangstberichten! Via deze nieuwsbrief willen we ook nog graag alle vrienden bedanken, die de WiMo Web-SDR via onze webwinkel hebben besteld. We hopen, dat je er veel plezier van hebt. Ook hebben we nog een verzoek, vooral voor onze luisteraars in Duitssprekende landen, maar niet alleen zij. Begin 2017 komt een nieuw station uit Noord-Duitsland dagelijks met een aantal uren op de korte golf. Het station is hiervoor nog op zoek naar een geschikte zender met een goed signaal in Europa. Om dat vast te stellen, is er woensdag 23 november, de komende week dus, om 14.00 uur Nederlandse tijd een testprogramma via de zender van Channel 292. Uiteraard realiseren we ons, dat dit tijdstip voor veel luisteraars ongunstig is, maar alle andere luisteraars die rond deze tijd wel kunnen luisteren: Stuur ontvangstberichten naar het adres dat in de uitzending wordt genoemd en laat het station weten, hoe (hopelijk) goed je het programma op 6070 kHz kunt ontvangen. Wanneer de testuitzending een positief resultaat oplevert, dan is dat ook een belangrijke stap voor onze zender: misschien kunnen we dan zelfs een tweede frequentie in de 49-meter-band inschakelen. We rekenen op jullie!!! Voor de vertaling in het Nederlands, zoals altijd weer veel dank aan Geert Wilkens.

Quick check of other channels: none on 9 MHz, but 6000 has also switched to Spanish until 0700*, and going back to 11840, now it`s off too. Only 6100 remains on with weekly Sunday Esperanto, theme music at 0701. 11840, Nov 20 at 1317, RHC on again this morning contrary to schedule, VG pulling its 11830 & 11850 parasites with it. 11840 is off at 1517 check while all these remain on: 9640, 9820, 11760, 15370, 17730, 11750. 11760, Nov 20 at 1603, RHC Esperanto confirmed still on here Sunday at time-shifted hour. The third airing remains to be confirmed; has been scheduled Sunday 2230 on 15370, normally not making a timeshift (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** INDONESIA. 9525.9, Nov 20 at 1336, again today no signal from VOI. Atsunori Ishida still hasn`t updated to show anything since Nov 15 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** ROMANIA. 7345, Nov 20 at 0708, news in German with sounders, fair S9+10. One thing for sure: it can`t be Deutsche Welle. It`s RRI as scheduled following 0630 English (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** TURKEY. 12035.012, Nov 20 at *1326:37, VOT cuts on in time today, IS with frequent YL English IDs interspersed. 1330 accurate timesignal, sign-on for 12035; only S3-S5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** UGANDA [non]. 15240, Sunday November 20 at 1612, no signal from WWRB with R. Munansi, while 15825 WWCR is fairly audible. Still not at 1645 recheck. Maybe will come on circa 1700 after this report (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 7570, Sunday November 20 at 0702, WRMI is S9+40 but barely modulated with hum, and turning up the volume, it`s Eddie Startz! So the PCJ Radio International special `From Radio Nederland Archives #4` is playing here on North American beam in the nightmiddle. Was supposed to be 06-08 UT on 7780 toward Europe. That signal is JBA here, but at 0707 I do manage to // it to 5765 with Brother Scare, as Alan Roe in England also lamented 7780 with BS, no PCJ. This was a repeat try after another failure a few weeks ago. And allegedly will be to NAm UT Monday Nov 21 at 01-03 on 7570. 5950 still // 5850 WRMIs at almost equal strength, Sunday Nov 20 at 0704 with show from a Mainstreet Church of Christ.

At first I don`t hear much modulation and the signal is unusually weak, YL introducing the show but reading S9+10. Some deep fades but mostly sufficient, and improving up to S9+30 to peaks at +45. At 0132, we`re on an imaginary Mediterranean cruise aboard the good ship Happy Station, at Mallorca. Eddie plays music from each island/port of call, and gives tourist info which he later says all comes from his personal travel experiences. Next refers to Napoleon and ``the French island of Mallorca``, a slip preserved for the ages, as must really mean Corsica. By 0212 we`ve reached Beirut, and then it`s overland to Israel and Jordan, 0233 ending at Aqaba for a flight back to Hilversum. Then plays some more music from the studio, greets long-gone listeners, and toward the end, Keith Perron explains how PCJ are trying to get RN stuff removed from YouTube, since PCJ now have rights to it. Despite some problems with previous airings, let`s hope PCJ and WRMI successfully continue with more such nostalgic specials. 7780, meanwhile, has been off the air from WRMI, as well as 7730 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 12105, Nov 21 at 0135, very weak signal so can`t tell the language, but WTWW-3 is apparently on now. 9475 WTWW-1 is still on at 0205, very poor, no switch to 5830 yet. 5085 WTWW-2 is not on (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 9605, Nov 21 at 0142, WHRI relay of KBS Spanish is S7 but just barely modulated as often the case. Why don`t they turn it up? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 9265, Nov 21 at 0144, no signal from WINB, which should be still on later Sunday night, just no propagation? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 3215, Nov 21 at 0150, horrible buzz and splatter centered here with gospel huxter, as WWRB is back to its old dual-frequency 90m operation, rather than 3195 as heard last night. Once again, the worst peaks are about plus and minus 7, circa 3208 and 3222, the full range approx. 3185 to 3240, fortunately not quite reaching the MARS net on 3245.0. At 0158, Dave interrupts the g.h. with a retune announcement ``to 3215`` --- oops, he meant FROM 3215 TO 3195; and off; *0159 Nov 21, 3195 comes up with the same mess around it shifted 20 kHz lower, roughly 3175-3210. Same g.h. has not finished so back to him briefly, but by 0201 he has finished, when canned YL WWRB ID plays with phone number, some jazz music, but within a few minutes another preacher starts. WWRB had to evacuate 3215 before 0200 whether the program in progress was over or not since: 3215, *0200 Nov 21, WWCR cuts on with steel drum IS, and 3215 sign-on announcement. Fortunately the crap from WWRB now on 3195 does not quite reach 3215. Once again, I inquire, why in the world doesn`t WWRB just stay on 3195 and WWCR on 3215 without the switcheroos?
