Peru, 5014.36, Radio Aultura, 1029-1100 At tune in, noted canned comments in
the echo effect. This was followed with live Spanish comments from a male.
Subsequently, a female comments for a couple of minutes. From her tone, it
seemed to be political. More of the same follows. Signal was fair. (Chuck

some talks and sporadic music, and a woman seemed to spell letters
or numbers , prior to ID that heard on 1510 and 1515 . called as _This
is Radio santa helena _ radio_. Due to other project same time I was
unable to listen to the full program.
However after the ID of 1515 , after ending the mini project, there
was an unknown _jammer_; or _buzzer_ sounded QRN that covered
most of the 10-15 MHz band in just several seconds with a S7 level
on this QRG
SINPO is referred as 12241, no S indication , with a tone /carrier of ca
200HZ on upper band and much of local DSL QRN
Please listen for more into my audio clip. The first below is im MP3 .
Would like to know if someone can identify the QRN type that is heard
after the 16th minute

hello Anker,
Been inactive in dxing in the last 2 months, a lot of work in my shool and
the monitoring and also listening to the Cricket World Cup which Sri Lanka
missed winning.
Yes you are right, just checked at 0000 Bhutan on 6035 blasting in. in fact
the strongest station on 49m. You didn't indicate the freq, but obviously
you were referring to 6035. Good observation Anker.
I didn't know about the SH test. Pity.

Dear friends,
Thank you for your recent e-mails.
I am pretty sure I heard Bhutan on 6035 this morning at 0005-0030 UTC fade
out with the typical Buddhish monks choir. I have not seen them reported
heard since January, so it may be their new 100 kW transmitter being tested.
Are you able to confirm that they are on the air. They probably sign on at
0000 UTC, but may also quickly fade out at your locations.
Obviously R St. Helena test was directed towards Europe today as I and
others in Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Austria, Spain and Portugal heard it
with weak signals, but clear ID's.
Best 73,
Anker
