** AUSTRALIA. RA lost program feed Aug 29, with 9590, 9580 and 9560 all running
fill music, presumably from transmitter site, and periodic apologies for
``break in transmission`` they hoped to fix ASAP. This lasted at least from
1305 to 1336 when talk programming had resumed, so ``Asia-Pacific`` listeners
were out of luck. But they were still off schedule, now monitoring 9590, with
multi-frequency QSY announcement normally running at 1357 or 1358, this time
after 1400 when they should have been in news. Then more fill, including promo
for RA now being on FM in Maldives (if they can do that, why not Minivan?), and
RA (not ABC) news finally started at 1403, but it was interrupted at 1405 to
join another feature show from ABC.
This was not a break in ``transmission`` as the transmitters stayed on the air
as usual. It was a break in program feed from Melbourne studios to Shepparton;
satellite problem? Whatever the reason, we can only wonder why they apparently
have no backup! A dialup phone link would have been adequate for the time
being. Or it could be the studio was unable to send out programming by any
means due to some kind of electrical or mechanical or computer breakdown. Loyal
listeners want to know exactly what happened, but stations never tell them such
details (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake, 10300, Aug 29 at 1308, much stronger than // 9200; sounded
like a ram`s horn for a moment. Have they changed the musical content? Not
audible on 13970 or any of the higher frequencies, where reception in general
was much attenuated (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. RHC, 15370, missing Aug 29 at 1316 check, until it cut on and off
briefly a few times (Glenn Hausere, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUIANA FRENCH. No sign of TDF DRM on 17865-17870-17875, Aug 24 at 1400 and
again at 1421 check. Just normal, maybe-on, maybe-off, or is this test
concluded? Seems I have also found it missing other mornings, including Aug 25,
but more likely to be missing on weekend anyway. It`s still on the DRM DX
schedule as M-F 13-20.
DRM from TDF, 17870-17875-17880, still missing Monday Aug 27 at 1413 check,
allowing LIBYA to be heard, q.v. In my previous item Aug 25 about DRM missing,
I said 17865-17870-17875, but the three channels (un)blocked should be centered
on 17875 altho they did previously shift briefly to 17870 for some reason.
BTW, DRM still missing from 17870-17875-17880 rechecked around 1730 Aug 27. The
last mention of GUF 17875 on the DRM forums was Aug 10:
http://www.drmrx.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1615&page=10
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1372, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** LIBYA. With no TDF DRM from GUF, 17870-17875-17880, Aug 27 at 1413, I could
hear weak analog signal fading out and in, with Afropop music, 1416 YL speaking
English, and // 17725 which was somewhat stronger, therefore V. of Africa as
scheduled in English 14-16. If these are relayed via France, would 17870 analog
vs 17875 DRM be acceptable to TDF?
Strangely enough, there are no current HFCC registrations for anything from
Libya`s four sites BGZ, SAB, SBH or TRI; not for France either on 17725, 17870,
nor the seasonal alternate 21695.
Let`s see what Aoki lists:
17725 1200-1400 LBY LJB Voice of Africa SWA EAf
17725 1400-1600 LBY LJB Voice of Africa E EAf
17870 1400-1600 LBY LJB Voice of Africa E EAf
17870 1600-1700 LBY LJB Voice of Africa F WAf /F
17870 1700-1800 LBY LJB Voice of Africa HA WAf /F
and nothing currently on 21695. That`s interesting: shows Libya direct except
at 16-18 on 17870 as via France. Can anyone hearing these better notice a
transmitter site switch at 1600 on 17870? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO
1372, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO [and non]. XEYU active again on 9599.2v, Aug 29 at 1258 producing
strong het against amazingly weak Cuba on 9600.0 (as was // 9550 mixed with FE
SAH); in the clear after Cuba off at 1301:40, with Noticias del D?a, ID; still
talk rather than classical music at 1322 recheck (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
Solar-terrestrial indices for 28 August follow. Solar flux 70 and mid-latitude
A-index 15. The mid-latitude K-index at 1200 UTC on 29 August was 1 (5 nT). The
mid-latitude K-index at 1500 UTC on 29 August was 2 (15 nT). No space weather
storms were observed for the past 24 hours. No space weather storms are
expected for the next 24 hours (SEC via DXLD)
** RUSSIA. Checking motorboating Magadan, 7320, again, Aug 29 at 1250, seems to
have cleared up, during music; this time in shadow of stronger RCI Sackville in
Spanish on 7325 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA [non]. RNV CI confirmed here on 15290, recently discovered by Liz
Cameron, at 1911 UT check Aug 28, with ID amid usual Bolivarian fare. Quite
strong signal, and may well be on Habana`s ``San Francisco`` antenna, as
originally at 1900 UT on 13740 when this started in April 2004 as shown at
``11:00-12:00`` in the grossly outdated but colorful map, which was misleading
even when new, at http://www.rnv.gov.ve/noticias/uploads/ondacorta1.jpg
