[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs January 2-3, 2014
** AUSTRALIA. 12065, Jan 3 at 1527, just as I tune in R. Australia it cuts off the air amid program; how rude! 1530 I find it instead on weaker 11880, maybe same transmitter. 1530 is supposedly the stop/start time for these (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. 9450-9470, Jan 3 at 1532, filthy FMy distorted blob of CNR1 programming is now on the hi side of 9450 jammer, suspected of being the source transmitter. On 9450 itself, the carrier is somewhat but much less distorted and unstably wobbling with BFO engaged. At least this leaves 9430 FEBC Chinese undisturbed today (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DGIEST) ** CUBA [and non]. 13740, Jan 3 at 0113, RHC with very poor signal // 11760, but enough to QRM even weaker R. Thailand to North America on 13745. My previous log of RHC going off a few minutes after must have been a fluke since WRTH 2014 and Aoki show 13740 on air continuously from 22 to 05 for South America. This is bad news for HSK9 trying to reach us directly from Udorn between and 0330. RHC Spanish page for frequencies http://www.radiohc.cu/interesantes/frecuencias is *still* blank when reached in Firefox; how about IE? It looks quite different with other stuff, but still, no frequencies! Going back to the homepage in IE, the black bar below the title does not even display the drop-down menus which should lead from interesantes to frecuencias. RHC website is as big a mess as their broadcasts (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** EQUATORIAL GUINEA [non]. 15190, Jan 2 at 2153, again I am only hearing one signal here, and it`s WRMI with R. Africa Network, which like now, is spending quite a bit of time with music fill; sounds jazzy, secular? But 2157 it`s vocal gospel rock. As a propagation check, 15580 is in well enough from VOA Botswana (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** JAPAN [non]. 11695, Jan 3 at 1403, poor signal with news in English, MW alternating, stuff about Japan; a new format for NHK World Radio? Haven`t listened to them in English for months, in keeping with their desire not to be heard in North America, but unfortunately ran across this which is via UZBEKISTAN to S Asia; I`d rather hear R. Tashkent. Nothing noticed on listed NHK // 11925 via Palau. See also MALAYSIA [non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MALAYSIA [non]. 11665, Jan 2 at 2203, NHK in Japanese direct from Yamata with usual good signal, and no sign of RTM back to Sarawak, supposedly scheduled from 2200; irregular or off? Not that it was usually heard at this daypart (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. See USA: WBCQ, WRMI ** U S A [non]. 12125, Jan 3 at 1528, very poor signal in English, soon recognizable as VOA`s Learning-English exaggerated intonation. Aoki shows at 15-16 only, this is due west from Tinang, PHILIPPINES (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1702 monitoring: confirmed Thursday January 2 from 2200:58 on WTWW-1, 9475. On WWRB 3195: tune-in at 0422 UT Friday Jan 3 to find dead air; then WOR starts early at 0426:15, and cut off the air immediately it`s over after 0455*. No 5050 //. Next: Saturday 0730 1530 on Hamburger Lokalradio, Germany, 7265-CUSB UT Sunday 0030v on WTWW-2, 5085 UT Sunday 0501v on WTWW-1, 5830 UT Monday 0400v on Area 51 via WBCQ, 5110v-CUSB [new time] Tuesday 1200 on WRMI, 9955 Wednesday 0730 1530 on HLR, 7265-CUSB (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 7730, Jan 2 at 2154, WRMI is very poor but recognizable with Brother Scare; not heard after 2200. Contradictory schedule indicated this ran until 2300. Is on a 44 degree antenna toward Europe, close to 90 degrees away from OK, so minimal signal this way. Jeff White requests, ``Glenn: We are doing a broadcast on 7730 kHz from 1800 to 2200 UT daily. I'm interested to hear what reception is like in Eastern North America during those hours. Any listener observations will be much appreciated. Jeff White WRMI Radio Miami International 175 Fontainebleau Blvd., Suite 1N4 Miami, Florida 33172 USA E-mail: radiomia...@cs.com http://www.wrmi.net Tel +1-305-559-9764 Fax +1-305-559-8186``. 9955, Friday Jan 3 at 1400, WRMI goes from `Wavescan` vs pulse jamming, and `Scoreboard` to Brother Scare, instead of scheduled `Words of Life`, fill or mistake? By 1454 it`s not BS but presumably the scheduled `Moments in Bible Prophecy` and then BS after 1500 (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST) see also EQUATORIAL GUINEA [non] ** U S A. 5110, Jan 3 at 0106 I cannot detect WBCQ which is supposedly on since with Brother Scare; WTWW is no help with huge BS signal on 5085 which desensitizes the area, and makes the WBCQ transmission totally unnecessary anyway. Still no 5110 at 0132 check. 7491.1, Jan 3 at 0108, no BS here either, supposedly scheduled from 0100, as WBCQ is off-frequency again. Instead, rock music. 0120 announcement as ``Heart and Soul of America Music``; 0122 modulation cuts off

Updated: World of Radio schedule: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html DX/SWL/Media Programs: http://www.worldofradio.com/dxpgms.html Alan Roe`s SW Station Hitlist: http://www.w4uvh.net/hitlist.htm ** CHILE [non]. On the condiglista, Claudio Galaz posted news from a Chilean radio forum http://www.radiomaniacos.cl/foros/index.php?showtopic=3624 that RCW Radio Compañía Worldwide, would carry out a test broadcast at UT Jan 4 on 7290 in the AM mode, 50 watts; duration not given. I pointed out that there might be QRM from CNR1 scheduled on 7290 before and after that hour from Beijing; and also 7290 is a prime hangout for North American hams in the AM mode. With the computer off and out of contact, I started monitoring at on 7290, and indeed heard a weak signal, probably China. Meanwhile, RCW had discovered that was big QRM down there, so said they would use 7550 instead starting at 0050, but I didn`t know that until afterwards. I probably tuned across 7550 without noticing anything. The radio maniacs forum shortwave sexion is worth keeping an eye on, as that`s also where news first appeared of the Cooperativa fútbol relay on 12365-USB last (and every?) October (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA [and non]. 5990, Jan 4 at 0003 I notice that CRI Spanish relay via CUBA is again late coming up (tho already running on 15120), with 5990 bearing instead a very poor signal in Russian. I`d rather hear that anyway, since Aoki shows it too is CRI, but 100 kW, 345 degrees from Hohhot, Inner Mongolia. Recheck at 0028, now Habana is on. 9750, Jan 4 at 0047 sounds like Japanese songs, fair with deep fades, and I figure it`s NHK which is on 9750 for long hours --- but not this long. Aoki shows it must also have been Hohhot, PBS Nei Menggu, in Mongolian, 50 kW, 36 degrees USward; among more E Asian signals on 31m than European or American (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. 17495, Jan 4 at 0007, Chinese, really Cantonese scheduled, 500 kW, 193 degrees from site. Tuning down the 16m band I about concluded it was totally dead empty until I got to this, making it the OSOB and the SSOB; also with echo, long/short path? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 15120, Jan 4 at 0003, checking CRI Spanish relay which is missing from // 5990, I hear not only a hum but an echo on 15120; could it be long/short path? It`s a long way around from Habana, some 38 megameters (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** EQUATORIAL GUINEA [non]. 15190, Jan 3 at 1911, JBA carrier, probably V. of Philippines rather than R. Africa, which remains unheard here in 2014y; has anyone, even at other dayparts? Long before the advent of RAN/WRMI, Bata would disappear for months at a time, breakdowns or out of funding? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 1570, Jan 3 at 1952 UT on caradio, some classical music catches my ear, a rarity on AM, and even FM radio; soon segué to a kid choir in Spanish. Must be the Tulsa market station which recently converted to Radio Católica Mundial, where some liturgical music crosses the classical barrier, and yes, // KTLR 890 OKC with much stronger signal. Here`s how the flips were reported in IRCA and NRC last month/year: ``1530 KXTD Wagoner, OK old slogan: La Luz AM 1530, new: Qué Buena 1530 KXTD Wagoner, OK was Spanish Christian, now Regional Mexican 1570 KZLI Catoosa, OK old slogan: Mega 1570, new: La Luz 1570 1570 KZLI Catoosa, OK was Spanish (BROADCASTING INFORMATION, Robert J. Wien (KG6RJW/3) - DATE OF COLUMN: DECEMBER 14, 2013, Column data span: November 30, 2013-December 14, 2013, Data courtesy of Stationintel.com, FCC database and member contributions, IRCA DX Monitor Dec 21 via DXLD) 1530, KXTD, Wagoner – Format to SS:MEX (ex-SS:SPT), slogan to Que Buena, drop network ESPD; delete // KZLI-1570. 1570, KZLI, Catoosa – Delete // KXTD-1530 (AM Switch, NRC DX News Dec 23 via DXLD)`` However, the flip had already happened last March as noted by Bruce Winkelman in Tulsa: ``KZLI-1570 Catoosa/Tulsa noted running Spanish religious programming this afternoon while running errands 1800-1900Z so apparently no longer // KXTD-1530. Heard a soft voiced female announcer at 1855Z with Esta es La Luz slogan(?) between Spanish religious vocal music songs. KXTD still ESPN Desportes during that time frame. Bruce Winkelman AA5CO Tulsa, OK`` BTW one of the hosts on KTLR/KZLI is named Winkelman. I can no longer find a Spanish affiliate list on the EWTN website. But this is on the KTLR site at http://www.ktlr.com/engine/emw.exe/*qshome=home ``Today AM 1570 K Z L I in Tulsa joins our broadcasts and together AM 890 KTLR and AM 1570 KZLI become COMMUNITY TALK RADIO FOR OKLAHOMA La Estacion Católica de Oklahoma presenta ahora EWTN en Español a partir de la 1 pm entre semana en Community Talk AM 890 - KTLR`` That is, joining RCM at 1900 UT M-F, and with some other Spanish gospel huxters earlier and on weekends.
