WORLD OF RADIO HITLIST Update
Hi Glenn, My latest Hitlist update.
https://www.w4uvh.net/hitlist.htm
1) Updated UTC offset notations for DST changes for Croatia (HRT),
Germany (HCJB), Greece (ERT), México (R Educación), Romania (RRI),
Spain (REE),
2) Canada - BVB: Link updated to new B-22 schedule (Note PDF filename
is correctly named "Winter", however PDFheading is incorrectly
labelled as B-22 "Summer")
3) Germany - MBR: Updated URL to link to B-22 frequency schedule
4) Nigeria - VON: Added link to second VON Facebook page (thanks to
tip by Glenn Hauser that such a page existed). Also added link to VON
live stream via Radio Garden (although this is temporarily unavailable
to listeners in the UK)
5) Spain - REE: Updated URL to link to B-22 frequency schedule
The next update is scheduled for around 6 November for DST changes in
Americas.
Best wishes and 73, Alan Roe
** CUBA. 5025 Rebelde, 5040, 6000, 6060, 6100, 6165, Oct 30 at 0705,
The Cuban Five of RHC are all off, nowhere to broadcast Sunday
Esperanto supposedly scheduled at 0700 but announced all summer as if
0800 on 6100. Esp`o still confirmed at 1507 on 11760 and much weaker
15140. With return to EST next Sunday, as a running dog of Yanqui
Imperialism, should shift to 1600 & imaginary 0800 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** CUBA [and non]. 13820, Oct 30 at 1522, R. Martí, VG S9+20, no
jamming audible. Totally predictable B22 ex-13605; still jammed on
11860 & 11930. At 1719 check into Maryland SDR, still jamming against
nothing on 13605 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** HAWAII. Re: USA, 5000, Oct 29 at 0548: ``Glenn, the sweep tones at
xx48 would be from WWVH. WWV has them at xx08. Stephen Luce, Houston,
Texas`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ITALY [and non]. 1323 & NEXUS-IBA webcast, Oct 29 at 2200 UT,
Feature Story News, 2207 music, not the Dario Monferini tribute. Seems
there were some errors in the IRRS schedule quoted previously. It
showed 22 UT as = 19 CEDT, but there is never a 3 hour difference. Who
knows what time it was really supposed to be? For Sun Oct 30,
supposedly at 17 UT = 18 CET, on 7290, correct conversion but the 7290
span should now be at 19-20 UT only, unless this were a special
booking. I miss checking whether 7290 really on at 17-18. If only
everyone would stick to UT yearound, there could be no confusion.
7290, Sun Oct 30 at 1915, NO IRRS signal into UTwente, just heavy ACI
splash from 7295 CRI English, now scheduled 500 kW due west from
Urumqi, East Turkistan, std denunciation, at 19-21 --- so good times
to avoid adjacent 7290. What does HFCC B22 show for ``Milano``?
7290 1800 1900 18-20,27-30,37-39 MIL 150 0 0 925
1234567 301022 250323 D 7295 EngI ANT ANT 4537
7290 2000 2100 18-20,27-30,37-39 MIL 150 0 0 925
1234567 061122 250323 D 7295 EngI ANT ANT 4542
i.e. NOT at 19-20 UT, but still at 18-19 for entire season, PLUS 20-21
UT starting Nov 6, why? Happens to be date DST ends in N
America?(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, Oct 30 at 1500-1530, what`s become of V of
Martyrs Korea service from secret site? Tune-in at 1509, S6/S9 signal
still, but talk by two OM voices sounds tonal like Chinese, not
English or Dhivehi. Not // 9660 in CNR1 check, or was that Taiwan. I
don`t think there was any English closing at 1529 as VOMK used to
provide, tho I was distracted during that minute; and off at 1530, no
longer followed by Vatican in Arabic. Last part monitored via KFS
remote on its NW antenna. Furthermore, no signal on 11825, which used
to be RBAustralia Burmese for comparison at 1500-1530 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** NEW ZEALAND. 13730, Oct 30 at 0706, JBA carrier from RNZP on new
B22 frequency, ex-9700 which was excellent SSOB for us! IF you believe
own schedule, https://www.rnz.co.nz/international/listen
13730 runs 0659-0858 daily, and 0859-1258 Mon-Fri only and on NW
Pacific antenna, bad for us -- therefore totally OFF THE AIR Sat & Sun
0859-1258! Preceded by 15720 all the way from 2059 except Sat 1959,
until 0658; and followed by 7390 at 1259-1650 daily (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** SAO TOME. 13580.067, Oct 30 at 0707, SSOB English sounds like BBC
with news about S Korea crowddeaths. It is now B22 without any such
HFCC scheduling, rather 05-10 USAGM Urdu via Kuwait; Pinheira must
still be on A22! BBC at 07-08 only, 335 degrees; and with typical
offfrequenciness from this site, where something`s always wrong,
reflecting badly on both USA and UK (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 5020, Oct 30 at 0705, JBA carrier presumed SIBC.
Still no 5025 Cuba to obscure it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 9690, Oct 30 at 1719, no signal direct from REE on B22 NAm
frequency, but new 12030 for ME off the back is S9/+10 at 1506. Into
Maryland SDR at 1717, 9690 is only S5/S7, but 12030 S7/S9, with 11940
for SAm also audible weaker. Not sure yet where the Af beam be, but
surely a poor 4th for us. Sportstalk or stupid ballgame coverage. As
every B-season, 9690
