Hello!?
in 2020, I monitored the 9885 kHz frequency to hear Saudi radio programs in
Uzbek, Tajik and Turkmen. And when I didn't hear the tajik-language program, I
found a Saudi radio broadcasting service for East Turkestan on Twitter. All the
news in that account was written only in Uyghur. There was no mention of
broadcasting in Turkmen and Uzbek..?
Also in past years, popular? frequency databases indicated that the 9885 kHz
frequency was broadcasting in Tajik, but I never heard this program because
Tajik is similar to Farsi, and the program was in one of the Turkic Language.?

** AUSTRALIA. 10125 USB, March 28 at 0633, weak ham talking about his
equipment, Oz accent. 0636 cambio to JBA contact, tentative ID by
first one as VK3O. QRZ.com shows this but expired in November:
``VK3O Australia flag Australia, Special Events Callsign, Steve
Gregory, Contest Operations, Hamilton Victoria 3300, Australia, QSL:
VK3OT`` -- but was a ragchew, not a contest. As reported previously,
only Australia has apparently authorized phone on ``30m`` (Glenn

considerable Chinese music CCI --- Commies vs Commies! HFCC A23 shows
CRI ``Portuguese`` at 22-23, 500 kW, 317 degrees via Xi`an. How could
CRI know about RHC which refuses to participate in HFCC? The Other

** MEXICO. 28183.2 as I estimate it, March 28 at 2219, first beacon
encountered is a regular: ``VVV XE1RCS/B EK09`` and dash, i.e.:
``28.183 XE1RCS C CERRO GORDO, MEXICO # 5W, VERTICAL New 8/08/08, Club

** NORTH AMERICA. 6974.908 AM, March 28 at 0130, JBA music, S8/S9,
unID pirate. Also unID here, believe subject line misdated 27 Mar:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,111858.0.html
since on Mar 28 logs are called ``today`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 7325 USB, March 28 at 0630, S4/S5 pop music vs S8/S5
storm noise level direct; lower level modulation also when tuned to
7325 LSB. Checking since on WOR iog the Russian ethnic pirate from NV?
has been reported here, ex 4015 USB. That is, ????????? ?????? or if
your display can`t handle Cyrillic, Vostochnaya Zvezda = Eastern Star,
presumably nothing to do with an American women`s Christian group, but
no ID heard by me.
First reported by Ron Howard on March 27: ``UNID. 7325-USB, 0956-0957
UT. I often check this frequency in the hope that Wantok Radio Light
(PNG) will reactivate, but I never heard anything before 0957, so I
was very surprised to hear a station only in USB, playing a pop song
till totally blocked by the start of CRI at *0957. Is this a pirate or
what? My audio -

Lucas Bandura, BC, replied at 2130: ``Ron, I reposted your 7325 USB
log on the HFU in case anyone there would know anything about it or
stay up late enough to check. Big Badfish Al wrote: ?Vostochnaya
Zvezda most likely since they are no longer on 4015 USB and had the
same playlist.?``
Lucas at 2135: ``I am listening on the KFS SE KiwiSDR now, good S3.
Much better frequency than 4015! Listeners outside of the US Southwest
might have a chance at hearing it now, we will see when night comes.
On 4015 it could not be heard at any SDR sites during the day.``
Walt Salmaniw, BC, replied: ``Hopefully a much better choice as 4015
barely made it to Masset. I?d like to see a daytime frequency as
well!73, Walt``
Lucas replied at 2148 March 27: ``Token in California on the HFU
reported hearing YHWH on 11560 AM three times during his first week of
being active in 2023 but I have been checking that frequency daily and
heard only legal stations. I will ask Token sometime if he has heard
him there since. A daytime frequency would be great for VZ. I am
guessing he is much like the Northeast pirates; they use NVIS antennas
and don?t really care if they make it outside their region since that
is outside their target area.``
Ron Howard at 2309 UT March 27: ``Thanks very much to Amano for his
input regarding my 7325-USB (Vostochnaya Zvezda [Eastern Star])
reception, after he listened to my audio. Ron:
"00:00-01:25[on my audio clip], this song is Russian popular music.
?????????? A???????? ???? ??????.
?Magnetic Anomaly? by Allo Stella.

Amano, Saitama, Japan"``
Walt: ``Yes, exactly the same. The childish voice at 04:14 is the same
as heard on 4015, and also the clips that Lucas provided earlier. I
can't make out what the child says at all. Shazam also isn't able to
ID any of the music played in the last 10 minutes or so.``
At 0437 March 28, from Lucas Bandura, BC: ``Very, very weak here at
0330 UT. As Walt said the same child voice in a non-English language
is heard and the music format is the same. No identifications over
about an hour of listening. The audio is still restricted to 2.5 kHz
but the bad splatter can be seen on the KFS SE KiwiSDR when the signal
gets up to S9+10. The splatter covers about 7320-7330 kHz. A bit
distorted so I think he needs to turn the audio input down.``
Gary Pence to the WOR iog at 0351: ``EX station 4015 khz is on right
now On 7325 khz USB S7-S9 KPH Point Reyes, California --- Hi Glenn,
also heard same signal profile on S. Nev. Radio Ranch. Got to be the
same guy that was on 4015 khz``
Salmaniw at 0448: ``Not a great frequency, especially due to the
splatter from very powerful 7335 which is Radio Mart?? Best to head
lower by 10 or 50 kHz, or higher somewhere. Walt``
Bandura at 0455: ``Yes, 7335 is Radio Mart?. I agree that he could
find a better frequency, but at least it?s a huge improvement over
4015 USB.``
Bandura at 0632: ``He is now being heard fairly strong across North
America, but the Radio Mart? slop is really bad.``
And Bandura at 0700: ``I have created a new page on the HFU Wiki for
this station:
https://www.hfunderground.com/wiki/index.php/Vostochnaya_Zvezda
Anyone with an account on the HFU can edit the wiki or you can post
information that should be added to the page and I will add it.``

** PERU. 4820, March 28 at 0657, JBA carrer; and no Chazuta 4810 now.
Further research about this Radio Integridad:
RAFAEL RODRIGUEZ, Colombia, March 23, translation: ``4820 kHz UNID,
after 0100 UT the signal that my colleague Auguste [sic] Galaz
reported since March 17 as Radio Integridad is reaching me. At the
moment with Andean praise music and something that seems to be a
vernacular locution and with sounds of "Windows" in the middle of the
songs. It is clear that it is not rebroadcasting the Radio Integridad
signal at this time, confirmed with its online audio. The MTC of Per?
{as of year 2005! gh} registers a station authorized to operate on
this frequency (OAW-6C) from Arequipa, but it also registers others
that are not active, so it is hasty to say that it is the same.``
On March 27: ``[WOR] Possible Identity of new 4820 Khz from Per? ---
Hi, Marcos C. from Vicu?a, Chile here. I have not written here in many
years but here is something interesting for you:
I read some days ago about a new Peruvian on 4820 Khz thanks to fellow
DXer Claudio Galaz and I found some info about this new station. I
heard the station just now and they were not relaying RRI (Red Radio
Integridad) but Radio Integridad from Trujillo, La Libertad.
Here is some short clip where they identified themselves as "Radio
Integridad 105.7 FM, La Voz que glorifica a dios" at 00:52 UTC
https://soundcloud.com/madseason2o1o/radio-integridad-trujillo-la-libertad-4820-khz-0052-utc-27-03-2023

``Tnx, Marcos, good to hear from you. I guess this Integridad may not
be related to the Red, not on their station list:

They do have a different FM station in La Libertad, Pacasmayo on 90.9

Marcos: ``apparently not, because they don't mention Red Radio
Integridad neither in their website nor their facebook page``
Bryan Clark, March 28 at 0517: ``Here in the north of New Zealand,
I've been hearing a weak signal on 4820 since 0450 UT today. Now, at
0515 I am hearing it quite well on my WinRadio SDR.
Checking KiwiSDRs in South America before 0500, I heard an
identification for Radio Integridad and the Peruvian anthem just
before the hour. After the hour it appears to be carrying a syndicated
Christian news programme. I found a matching webstream for Radio
Integridad Trujillo as well. The SDR Alpha Corral LU1HCW is providing
a good clean signal. If the station runs overnight it will be a
reasonably easy catch for DXers in the South Pacific. Regards, Bryan,
Mangawhai NZ``
Lucas Bandura: ``Still no mention of 4820 kHz on their website. Has
anyone tried emailing them, r_integri...@yahoo.com to ask about the
new frequency?``
Bruce Churchill, California: ``UNID Peruvian heard quite well on 28
Mar on 4820 from SDR in W. Iceland from 0633 to 0703 with relay of
Radio Integridad in Trujillo (as indicated by Bryan this program was
parallel to web stream for Radio Integridad 105.7 FM). S3 to S4 on
SINPO scale. Missionary stations in LA typically use their own
transmitters such as R Chaski and R Logos ? so the real question is,
is this station departing from the pattern and leasing (or using)
someone else?s transmitter? In any case, well heard both in Iceland
and NZ so likely not a low-power operation. I did e-mail the station
per Lucas?s suggestion. We?ll see. Bruce``
I hope this roundup has been helpful. Maybe sometime I shall hear more
than a JBA carrier, myself (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. Habitually I had been listening to VOT English at 2300 on
5960 via UTwente, where I could be sure of a loud & clear signal -
except for some CCCCCCI. Now at 2200 on 11785, it should arrive better
to deep North America. So I try it direct, March 28: 2158, IS playing
with English IDs, S8/9+20 with quite a lot of pumping fading but no
QRM. No problem from 11780 if that`s Brasil, S3/S6. Timesignal at 2200
is 2.5 seconds late compared to WWV! After s/on citing only four
*other* English emissions, news items include demos in France, PKK
terrorists, bus accident in Sa`udi Arabia, Nashville school shootings.
2207 `Review of the Turkish Press`; 2210 music; 2214 promo VOT in 41
languages on website, `Weekly Commentary` by a prof at Manchester
Univ, about WHO, cholera rates, Bangladesh, but read by extreme
accentedess, so I try 26110, see USA. And 28183, see Mexico. Back on
UTwente S9+30/35 at 2249 to catch the multilingual ID reel filler;
2252 s/off with 4 other broadcasts only, 2254* off before IS can be
completed even once. Something`s always awry at Ankara, erroneous at
Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 26110 NBFM, March 28 at 2216, KMK282 is on, weather info for
Sacramento and The Valley, steady S9, very gradual fade to S8; ends at
2217 with vamp musiic, now S7, 2218 dead air, and autocutoff at
2218.5. No doubt will be back off and on. That means local news on
KOVR or KMAX at 3:16 local time, or a pre-recording (Glenn Hauser, OK,

Sorry dear Ivan Zelenyi,
I couldn't identify any of these central and southern Asia languages,
due of very LOW MODULATION out of Riyadh center,
but tremendous powerful TX signal noted
into Doha Qatar Perseus SDR unit.

Hello!
in 2020, I monitored the 9885 kHz frequency to hear Saudi radio programs in
Uzbek, Tajik and Turkmen. And when I didn't hear the tajik-language program,
I found a Saudi radio broadcasting service for East Turkestan on Twitter.
All the news in that account was written only in Uyghur. There was no
mention of broadcasting in Turkmen and Uzbek..
Also in past years, popular frequency databases indicated that the 9885 kHz
frequency was broadcasting in Tajik, but I never heard this program because
Tajik is similar to Farsi, and the program was in one of the Turkic
Language.

Yes, once I heard a broadcast in Urdu on e frequency 9885 kHz, also once for
several months there was a program in Urdu at a frequency of 15120 kHz instead
of broadcasting in Bengali. Low modulation was also often at 9695 kHz during
broadcasts to Pashto, with bad sound quality also in broadcasting over the
Internet .?
