Re: [DX] etäisyyksiä
Moi, ACE-HF käyttää laskentaan VOACAP-ohjelmaa, joten ennusteet ovat samat kuin ne laskisi tällä online-palvelulla: http://online.voacap.com VOACAP:n ennustetarkkuus 160 metrillä (saati sitä alemmilla taajuuksilla) on todella huono DX-etäisyyksillä, joten niihin ei kannata paljon luottaa, NVIS-tyyppiset yhteysvälit on sen sijaan ok. Jopa 90 metrilläkin ennusteissa on toivomisen varaa. Alabandeilla kannattaa tutkia pikemminkin hämärävyöhykekarttoja, kuten DX Atlas tai GeoClock. GeoClock on mun henkilökohtainen suosikki vaikka onkin vanhempaa vuosikertaa kuin DX Atlas J 73 Jari JKP/OH6BG From: dx-boun...@hard-core-dx.com [mailto:dx-boun...@hard-core-dx.com] On Behalf Of Ilkka Martikainen Sent: Monday, May 6, 2013 8:00 PM To: 'Suomalaisten DX-lista' Subject: Re: [DX] etäisyyksiä Radioaallot eivät aina kulje ns. isoympyränkaarta pitkin eli suoraan tätä lienee joku tutkinut laajemminkin.

Tirana in English is sufficient with no QRM here from much stronger 9860 WHRI; but since 9845 is free, I still think it should get further away, for benefit of listeners with wider bandwidth and/or lesser relative signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** AUSTRALIA [and non]. As expected, HCJB made its transmitter/frequency swaps today Sunday May 5: 15490, new frequency is on at 1158, presumably Indonesian, 1203 ``Softly Tenderly`` hymn tune, and nothing on ex-15340. Malayalam is scheduled Sundays only 1200-1230, otherwise Indonesian; 1230-1300 daily in Rawang. 15490 is off at 1303 check, as now scheduled until 1300 only. As I said before, HCJB made exactly the wrong choice in jumbling frequencies. They had to get off 15400 due to Iran, but should have moved that service which runs until 1530, to 15490 instead of re-colliding with Cuba on 15340 after 1300. Of course, they may think CubaRM is irrelevant on the other worldside, but why take chances? 15340, ex-15400 at 1226 with ``commence shortly`` loop and same orchestral music as always, one segment of which sounds like it`s starting ``What`s it All About, Alfie?`` but turns into something else. 1230 sign-on in English mentioning this frequency correctly, then first program to S Asia continues in English, ``Family Care`` with YL Sheridan (or I suppose she must be an XYL). 1245 check now has switched to non-English, i.e. Hindi scheduled on Sundays. At 1258, RHC is already on 15340, covering almost completely what had seemed to be a strong signal from Kununurra, with conclusion of `Cuba Campesina` music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** AUSTRALIA. 9580, May 5 at 1306, `Sunday Night` religious show from RA has guest explaining the politico-ethnic backstory to the Malaysian elexions where the polls are closing. Seems the country is (only) 60% Moslem, and different faxions within that are vying for control. Ethnic identity is just as critical as religious. But soon on to other topix, Boston`s bombers, Anglican/Catholic dissension. 1327 music break with ``House of the Rising Sun`` --- except lyrix of ``Amazing Grace`` are set to it, a perfect fit metrically! Make that ``Rising Son``? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BANGLADESH. 15505, May 5 at 1357, BB is on with IS on poor signal; off-time signal ends at 1359:49, opening Urdu (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. 9800, May 5 at 0055, some Chinese music, poor with flutter. So is this the National Emergency Broadcast which started April 22 following the Sichuan earthquake? Aoki shows it 24 hours except Mondays at 1735-1955; but also, already on 9800 was CRI Spanish via Kashgar, EAST TURKISTAN at 2300-0057, which would be more likely here. Did they really leave CRI on 9800 when they activated the NEB? And for how much longer if at all? Nothing audible on the other NEB channel 12000, not even Cuban jamming against defunct VOA Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. Firedrake, May 5 before 1230: 13795, fair at 1224 with CCI. All the other `FD` frequencies still occupied by CNR1 jamming instead: 16600, very poor at 1220; none in the 17s, 16m almost dead anyway 14980, JBA at 1220; none in the 15s 14870, poor at 1220 14800, poor-fair at 1220 13970, fair at 1221 13920, fair at 1220 with flutter; really all are fluttery somewhat 13830, poor at 1220 12370, poor at 1226 After 1230 May 5, not a full search: 11500,

** BANGLADESH. 15505, May 6 at *1357:19 with BB IS, seems not so hummy now, but too poor to be sure, and with flutter; timesignal ends at 1359:45, opening Urdu (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. Firedrake [non], May 6 before 1300, CNR1 jamming instead on incomplete search: 13970, good at 1255 14870, fair at 1259 CNR1 jamming on FD frequencies, May 6 before 1400, more complete: 13130, JBA at 1346; none in the 12s 13830, poor at 1345 with CCI 13920, good at 1345 with flutter 14700, fair at 1342 with hets 14750, fair at 1342 with flutter 15565, poor at 1341, CNR1 plus noise, het on lo side 15610, audible under WEWN at 1340, het on lo side 15920, very good at 1341 16920, good at 1342; none in the 17s, 18s (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 15190-15275, May 6 at 1338, rough range of buzz field surrounding RHC 15230; peaks circa 15215, 15245, but constantly fluxuating (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** EAST TURKISTAN. May 6 after 0500, notice a number of weakish signals on 16m, a sure sign of northern summer influence by the midnight sun. Best of the lot at 0552 is 17820 in German, making me think of DW/Rwanda, which used to make it here in the nightmiddle, but wait --- DW not only does not broadcast from Germany, it doesn`t broadcast in German! Instead HFCC shows CRI, 500 kW, 308 degrees from Urumqi at 05-07 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** INDIA [and non]. 9870, May 6 at 1254, AIR VBS good with vocal music, no CCI yet and no DRM either, but at 1306, CCI from CRI English underneath, but growing to equal level by 1321 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NEW ZEALAND. 9655, May 6 at 1250, RNZI back here after a week on 9700 during the 11-13 bihour --- and signal is weak again, back on the Timor antenna, while 9700 was obviously on the Pacific antenna, with VG signal here, regardless of what listings or Ivo Ivanov may think. RNZI website schedule http://www.rnzi.com/pages/listen.php still shows 9700 for Timor; so was 9655 a mistake? Who knows which will appear on which antenna tomorrow? Program today was about Fiji and Tonga, with drumming sounder between. 9655 off by 1258, and weaker 6170 on by 1300 with timesignal and news (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NICARAGUA [and non]. 8989-USB, UT Monday May 6 at 0010, very weak Spanish yelling, could well be revival meeting, presumably the ``Pescador Predicador`` reportedly in or near Nicaragua. 0011 had brief ACI from much stronger US military test count on 8992-USB, with reverb like Andrews cyphercasts, but ID sounded like ``Willigate, out``. Maybe it was really tactical call ``Intermediate`` others have reported in UDXF (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 93.1, May 6 at 0007 UT on DX-398, notice that the KIMY 93.9 translator, which they don`t know has moved from 93.3 and is now called K226BR, not only has noisy input, but also has its own stereo pilot on, making it even noisier unless deliberately changed to mono, on this rather weak signal (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** PERU [and non]. 5980, May 6 as early as 0009, carrier is detectable at about same level as later in hour, but buried in the noise. Back at 0103, it is a little better with some modulation making it, as I start monitoring with BFO to detect exact time of carrier cut, which is: 0105:18* which is just as expected, 5 seconds later than last night. BUT: very brief carrier cut and then it comes back! Has R. Chaski changed its procedure? Listening further, another somewhat stronger carrier goes on and off, and then at 0106 I now recognize the tones of DGS on the remaining 5980 signal as weak as Chaski had been! 5980 is always at risk for a leapfrog mixing product, transmitted or within receiver due to overload, when the two WWCRs are on 5890 5935, another 45 kHz higher, but normally 5890 is not on this early, so there is no problem in the Chaski window. DGS is indeed on 5935 now and checking 5890, a very strong open carrier, so WWCR must have turned on early just as Chaski was going off. On weekends, WWCR-4 is off the air from 7520 at -0200, and 5890 does not start until 0300; in fact it goes off 9980 at 2200, so #4 is available for whatever in that interim.

[HCDX] Retro Radio Dial 1988 Caribbean FM
Radio Heritage Foundation www.radioheritage.com May 7 2013 Media Release Retro Radio Dial 1988 Caribbean FM A fascinating look back 25 years ago to 1988 and the radio stations that could be heard from the Caribbean on FM has just been released by the Radio Heritage Foundation at www.radioheritage.com. You'll find a complete list of FM stations along the dial from many islands of the Caribbean such as Puerto Rico, as well as Bermuda, Belize, French Guyane, Guyana Surinam. This was a period of substantial change in the Caribbean radio scene, as long lasting state owned AM stations and networks on many smaller islands faced growing competition from privately owned stations on FM. It was also the year that Hurricane Gilbert hit the region, causing widespread loss of life and damage. Retro Radio Dial Caribbean FM 1988 is the latest of a new series exploring the global radio dials at important times during the last century. It completes the current 1988 focus, with the next series of features going back 60 years to 1953. The feature includes the Top 20 music hits of 1988, popular movies and books and other aspects of popular culture that add to the flavor of the radio dials of the era. The Retro Radio Dial series also includes features exploring radio as early as 1928 in California, Japan and Shanghai in 1941, Hawaii in 1961, Idaho and Texas in 1963, Australia AM FM in 1988, Caribbean AM shortwave 1988 .and many new titles are currently in preparation. The Radio Heritage Foundation is an independent non-profit organization with no connections to the broadcasting industry or any government agency, and is supported by people worldwide who think it's important to protect radio memories for the future. Content at www.radioheritage.com is free. Come along and visit the Caribbean FM radio dial in 1988 with us. There's even a place for you to share your own radio memories of those times. We welcome your feedback on the new Retro Radio Dial series.
