Bolivia, 6155.23, Radio Fides, 1058-1110 Noted a female in Spanish comments
briefly until music presented at 1102. Signal
was threshold during the period until it faded into the noise.
(Chuck Bolland, March 1, 2009)
Russia, 6075, Rossii, 1122-1130 Noted a program of Russian
language news and commentary. Rossii is usually audiable around
this time on 6075 after DW has faded. Today was the same with
a poor to fair signal. (Chuck Bolland, March 1, 2009)

** ALBANIA [and non]. R. Tirana, 6110, concluding 0330 English broadcast with
theme at 0356 March 1, fast SAH, under Ethiopian singing. A collision to be
avoided in B-09, but Tirana will be on 7425 in A-09 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. RNA, 11780, VG with all-night Sunday broadcast, March 1 at 0645.
This time could detect no spurs, with France/South Africa clear on 11830 and
New Zealand on 11725; altho there may have been some weaker spurs elsewhere
obscured by local noise level (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. RHC colliding for an hour on 6140: see ROMANIA [and non]; see also
VENEZUELA [non]
** ECUADOR [and non]. Missing Feb 28, but RTTY on 11687.5, NAA? was back as
usual March 1 at 1357, heavily QRMing HCJB Spanish on 11690. See also VENEZUELA
[non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA [non]. With VOI back on 11785 Feb 27, I was standing by at 1500
March 1 to see if they were still there, as they are totally blocked weekends
while WHRI is on, including at first check 1358 with gospel huxter in English.
After Hmong Lao Radio, at 1459 OCS theme and ID, then a bit more Hmong
hmusic(?) before cutting to open carrier and off at 1500:30, uncovering a weak
station, but does not sound like VOI --- just talk in non-Malay-Indonesian
language and not English either. Not Gua?ba, Brasil; and BTW Bras?lia 11780 was
audible much stronger.
Checking PWBR `2009`, it looks like V. of Turkey as scheduled in Arabic from
1500 in W-season --- EXCEPT, no such listings in HFCC, WRTH, Aoki, EiBi or
VOT`s own schedule! Nothing else at all listed during this hour anywhere. So
maybe it really was VOI past 1500 on 11785 in uncertain language. No, nothing
audible from VOI on 9525 or 9526 at this hour or earlier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** LIBYA. V. of Africa, still on 17725 in English, March 1 at 1439; could not
make out much but all I needed was a bit of Beethoven`s Ninth to be sure it was
this (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ROMANIA [and non]. RRI Spanish on 6140 in big collision with RHC in English
--- March 1 at 0353 tune-in just as DXers Unlimited was closing with coded
message; RRI signing off with full Spanish transmission schedule, including
this frequency at 0300; and ``9523`` at 2400 --- an old error outpointed before
which they still haven`t fixed.
This collision must have been in effect since RRI came back full force last
fall. As an outlaw nation`s station, RHC refuses to participate in HFCC, and
evidently doesn`t even bother to co?rdinate on a bi-lateral basis, especially
with ex-Commies. (I see Aoki lax RHC on 6140 between 01 and 05, where it has
really been since last summer; but Eibi has it.) Tho RHC has a big signal aimed
usward on 6140 most of the time, RRI was now atop. O well, serves Arnie right
for allowing fellow DX programs to be jammed by Cuba, such as QSO with Ted
Randall, checked Sunday March 1 at 0643 with jamming pulses on 9955.
RRI again with very anomalous reception on 25m, March 1 at 1355, 11970 wrapping
up English hour, just barely audible, while 11940 in Romanian was much
stronger, contrary to what you would expect from the nominal parameters. What`s
the explanation? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SAUDI ARABIA. 17660, March 1 at 1440, YL speaking French slowly, almost at
dictation speed, about Allah, birds tweeting in background; poor signal from
BSKSA R. Riyadh, but only makes it at all on better days (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** TURKEY [and non]. 6020, March 1 at 0357, awful mixture of CRI via Albania in
Chinese, atop VOT IS preceding English to NAm direct; PLUS big het from always
off-frequency R. Victoria, Per?. Contrary to Aoki, CRI did not end at 0357 but
stayed on all the way to 0400* sharp, just as timesignal a few sex late from
Turkey was heard. VOT opened English without China QRM, but still unlistenable
due to het, lacking a notch. And how many portable SW radios have one these
days? No station should use 6020 to North America in prime time as long as Per?
is hetting away.
7325 Sackville relay had not been on before 0400 with IS, so checked it after
0400 and now found it on in TURKISH instead of English which it is supposed to
carry // 6020, except for the feed delay. Sounded like a cabaret show with two
guys talking, guitar accompaniment, audience laughter and applause. So
Sackville was getting the wrong feed from TRT; notified. I wonder how long this
has been going on and/or how often it happens as I am seldom monitoring this
transmission. I know I also heard wrong feed here many months ago (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. 7215, with rustic exotic music, UT Sun March 1 at 0337; first
guess SEAsian, second guess S Asian, then a talk mentioning Christus Jesus
several times, not Asian; 0344 a bit more music, TWR chimes IS and open carrier
until 0346* Per Aoki this is TWR, 250 kW, 5 degrees via South Africa in Amharic
(Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon); Orominya Tue; Sidamo Wed and Thu, all at 0330-0345 only.
Good signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA [non]. After several weeks of no transmissions at all on the
Sunday ``Alo, Presidente`` frequencies via Cuba, they were back March 1: first
noted at 1432 on 11875 with ``Mundo Siete``, RHC`s week-in-review program and
one of those always played as lead-in to Venezuelan relay. // 13750 but an echo
apart; also // 11690 now overriding HCJB and RTTY, another echo apart. In other
words, all three frequencies were slightly unsynchronized with each other. At
1439, also audible on 17750 but under VOA music via South Africa --- another
collision which should have been avoided. Unheard so far on the fifth frequency
13680, aside much stronger China via Canada 13675.
At 1458, 13750 with Bolivarian talk, but apparently still Cuban-produced
programming. At 1503, 17750 in the clear after VOA closing, but weak; a few
minutes later built up to strong. Still nothing audible on 13680. At 1505
retuned to 13750 and it was gone, but soon cut back on, still with Cuban
programming. At 1510 the show was RHC`s ``Somos J?venes``, another perennial
lead-in.
At 1513 I tried 13680 again and could barely hear it // the others, very weak
and SAH with R. Farda via Wertachtal, 105 degrees scheduled until 1600.
Obviously Cuba is using a very different antenna for 13680 on Sundays than it
does on weekdays when it`s inbooming here. After this I was not paying close
attention, but at 1538 finally noticed Ch?vez intoning, so maybe he got started
around 1530 (11 am Venezuelan time). Still going at 1642 recheck on 13750. I
suspect Hugo was eager to brag even more than usual, having secured the
possibility of remaining president-for-life. The state, it`s him.
Meanwhile I had checked other RHC frequencies to confirm what they were doing.
Mainstream RHC at 1432 on 11760, 13760, and a few minutes later also on 15120,
15360, 15370. At 1505, Esperanto on 11760 only; and the others off (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. Since last year it was unheard past February, I made a point to
check for 8GAL on 6074, March 1, 2009 at 1400: undetectable between 1359 and
1402 as R. Rossii closed 6075 and turned off the carrier a few sex after 1400
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
