Löysimpä vastauksen itsekin, kun selailin vähän DX uutisia: --------------------------------------------------------------------- UNIDENTIFIED [non]. Brazilian last night (Sun 7th May) on 4990 (or a shade above, say 4990.02). Heard from 2150 tune-in but seemed to disappear at 2204. Weak and noisy. Definitely Portuguese (not Dutch or Spanish) and typical echoey talk. Fanfare at end(?) of programme 2200 - mentioned "programa 'Sol da ter'.." and possible mention of Goiania. But no ID copied. Any one know what this could be? 73 (Alan Pennington, Caversham, UK, AOR 7030+, longwire, dxldyg via DX LISTENING DIGEST) Alan, someone in Japan was also puzzled by this "Brazilian" station a short time ago. I suggest that it is actually CVC International via Meyerton according to an item from Radio Bulgaria DX Mix News of April 28th. They report that CVC operates on 4990 via MEY 100 kW non- directional to Ce&SoAfrica in Portuguese at 1905-2205. This is a new frequency instead of former 9620. The "disappearance" of the signal at 2204 coincides with the reported sign-off. 73s from (Noel R. Green (Blackpool), ibid.) Thanks to Noel - eventually found the Christian Voice schedule on the Sentech website which tallies (Portuguese definitely sounded Brazilian rather than African though!): CHRISTIAN VOICE 0515-1545 9555 100 Southern Africa English 0600-0900 9805 100 Mozambique Portuguese 1905-2200 4990 100 Southern Africa Portuguese (Alan Pennington, ibid.) Perhaps this Portuguese programming comes from the CVC Brazilian service in Miami. When you have such an unID you ought to go right to the DXLD archive and search on the frequency (Glenn Hauser, DXLD) -------------------------------------------------------------------- Reijo Alapiha Joensuu ___________________________________________________________________________________ Ennakkotilaa WRTH 2006 nyt: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0823059367/hardcoredxcom/ ----------------------------------------------------------------- DX mailing list [email protected] http://arizona.hard-core-dx.com/mailman/listinfo/dx _______________________________________________ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.
