** CUBA. I see the `Oct-Mar` RHC transmission schedule on their website has
been copied and forwarded around on various DX lists without comment, even tho
I previously enumerated some of its inconsistencies and errors in DXLD.
Circulating such a misleading, poorly formatted schedule like that is not
helpful.
One thing I outpointed was that the English broadcast at 2030-2130 is missing
from the schedule, and I just reconfirmed Sat Oct 20 that it is indeed still on
the air, when checked at 2114 as Arnie Coro was wrapping up DXers Unlimited
with brief propagation note. 9505 is much weaker here than 11760, but 9505
leads 11760 which has a slight delay by comparison due to different transmitter
sites and/or feed routing. I also reconfirmed that the 2300 English broadcast
is only on 9550, not 9505 as in the schedule.
RHC does not even know the correct times and frequencies for its own
broadcasts. And when there is more than one time and more than one frequency on
the same line, how are we supposed to match them up, in order? See if you can
figure out which times go with which frequencies at
http://www.radiohc.cu/espanol/frecuencia/frecuencias-espanol.htm
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** JAPAN [non]. Since as I pointed out, the other three remaining broadcasts in
English from R. Japan to NAm have interference problems, I finally checked out
the fourth, 0000-0020 UT via Sackville 6145, Oct 21 and found it in the clear!
World Interactive was indeed playing already at 0001, despite showing as
``09.10 JST`` on their website schedule; but presumably its final repeat in the
true cycle, W&W discussing remedies for sore throat in different countries,
then mailbag item about too-early Xmas celebrations.
If there has been any breaking news in Asia since 1410 UT, you will not hear
about it in English on R. Japan until 0500 the next day, as there is no news on
the only intervening broadcasts at 2200 and 2400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. XEYU missing for at least a week as of Oct 21 from 9599.3v, as
checked at random times day and night. I see Ron Howard had them on Oct 9
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA. VON, presumed the one with drums and singing on 7255, Oct 20 at
2119, French scheduled during this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Radio Mart?: Oct 18 after 2005, when 13820 is supposed to be Delano,
it was again audible and again breaking up, but at recheck 2055 it was finally
OK. Recheck at 2215, 13820 OK and a few words ahead of 11930, so two different
sites again, Delano leading since it gets landline rather than satellite feed
Greenville gets, despite being much closer to Washington.
R. Mart? was again very strong on 7405 // 11845, Oct 19 at 1357 and at this
early hour I again think both are Delano instead of scheduled Greenville ---
and both again with audio dropouts. However, after 2000, 13820 had OK audio for
a change.
Since I had to report repeatedly about serious breakup in R. Mart? audio feed
for over a week, I need to report when it is OK: Oct 20 at 1340 check on 7405,
11845, 13820, all atop jamming but not so strong as to inaudibilize it, so
probably all back to Greenville, and no breakup. Listening closely at 2329 to
13820, when it is Delano, there was only some very lite breakup, lacking audio
during troughs in modulation, still needing a slight touchup (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. VOA, 9760 via Philippines, Sat Oct 20 at 1325 Jazz America
show from VOA Music Mix Network, as announced, with ``Jungle Blues``, terrific
piece by Jelly Roll Morton performed by Wynton Maralis et al. As always during
this hour, CRI English QRM underneath, since CRI blatantly ignored
sesquidecades of VOA usage of this frequency, and decided it just had to use
it.
I`d love to have heard the negotiations over this at HFCC, if there ever were
any --- when another country is jamming many of your broadcasts, with
transmitters imported from your own country, do you meekly accept mere
co-channel interference with different target areas that look good on paper?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WBCQ, 7415, with Allan Weiner Worldwide playback from the night
before, Sat Oct 20 at 2120 tune-in. [``Think Tank North America`` is supposed
to occupy the Sat 21-22 hour per online schedule, having just returned in Sept
after a 4-year hiatus.]
AW was talking about a new two-hour daily show to be carried on 5110, ``Area
51``, which will be ``taken over by the inmates``, run by TimTron and Larry
(Will), not Allan. Apparently it will be for pirates to do their thing on a
real station, tho AW has a low opinion (Bronx cheer) for most pirates today,
``taking a transmitter and massaging their wieners[sp?]``, merely on an
ego-trip and aren`t doing anything worthwhile like he was when he had four
pirates running from Yonkers in the late 60s and 70s, 24 hours a day and a
staff of 50.
Altho allegedly running 50 kW already, the 5110 transmitter and antenna are
being rebuilt, and will be ``more powerful`` this winter, meaning ``increasing
the modulation envelope and other trickery``. [Maybe we will finally get a
listenable signal from it in OK?] 5110 presently carries Good Friends Radio
Network [Rod Hembree, gospel-huxter masquerading as scientist], 7 pm to 6 am
[ET = 2300-1000 UT, soon 0000-1100 UT], so Area 51 will be M-F at 5-7 pm ET
[2200-2400 UT after DST. It seems to me there was already a program by that
name on WBCQ but I don`t find it on current schedules. -- gh]
Allan went on to say that he would like WBCQ to transmit in DRM, and someday
will, but not until it is easy and inexpensive for broadcasters to do it and
people to receive it, not ``all this proprietary shit`` which is ``stupid,
asinine, just like IBOC``. DRM requires linear broadband transmitters, which is
the case with 5110, 9330 and 18910, but not 7415 which is high level plate
modulated. So DRM would only be on the others (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. Checking 15410 for CVC, Miami via Chile, during ``Sem Limites``
Portuguese show featuring classical music at 23-24: report said it was M-F, but
I also heard it Sat, Oct 20 for a few minutes, 2342-2354. While I am glad to
hear some classical music on this otherwise dreadful station, they ruin it with
their interruptions every few minutes for promos or PSAs, and apparently only
brief pieces can be accommodated. I heard a PSA from OMS (WHO) on cancer, the
Toreador song from Carmen, 2345 a bit about Mont Blanc, ``Bess, You Is My Woman
Now``, instrumental; 2352 plug their English lessons daily at 7 am, then
something by L?har, etc., etc. At least there is no co-channel QRM on 15410 at
this hour, unlike most of the day earlier: 12-14 DW Kigali, 14-15 DW Meyerton,
15-17 & 1730-20 IBB Morocco (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA [non]. Paused for a moment on 13680 via Cuba, Oct 20 at 2325 as
RNV was just announcing their transmission schedule. Yes, it is still the same
one they started with in April 2004, which has undergone numerous changes and
additions since. You know it`s that one when they start with the long-imaginary
broadcast to ``San Francisco at 11 am on 13740``. After a nice song which we
suspected was by a falsetto, or a female with remarkable range, at 2328
efem?rides (this day in history) for October 20, so we know this was a `new`
broadcast even with grossly outdated info on its own schedule. It seems they
are clueless in Caracas about the true times and frequencies they are on the
air (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. Tried again for reported R. Rep?blica on 5954v, 24 hours later,
Oct 19 at 2345. Tried to get a good frequency reading on the DX-398 in the
yard, but barely enough signal, especially with WYFR 5950. Did not find
anything above 5954 this time, but something closer to 5953. By 2355 I decided
it was about 5952.55, which makes it more likely the Bolivian. No audio to help
with ID this time; I have never heard a R. Rep?blica ID myself tho two others
report it. It`s hard to see how this tiny signal would have any effect in Cuba
right next to WYFR.
5954.1, Radio Rep?blica from unknown site. Altho did not hear it Oct 19,
checked again Oct 20 at 2308 and found usual signal just above 5954 and
suffering severe splash from WYFR 5950. M&W were speaking in Spanish, and as
usual not // RR on jammed 6135. Recheck at 2355, definitely heard R. Rep?blica
theme and ID, no mention of frequency, and into discussion of Fidel & Ra?l. Got
badly squeezed from *0000 CRI via Sackville 5960, but could still detect
Rep?blica in between 5960 and 5950 past 0000 and again at 0017.
BTW, the last LAm station that used to be on 5954 (as opposed to 5955) was TIQ,
Radio Casino, Costa Rica, which went inactive several years ago. Possibly this
old transmitter was resurrected in CR, if not moved elsewhere? How well does
Ra?l Saavedra hear it? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Peru, 6173.65, Radio Tawantinsuyo, 0950-1000 Brazil has a strong station on
6175 which is
practically covering RT, but with careful tuning, I can pull in some details
such as a male in
Spanish comments. He talks until 0957 when music is presented. Heard music
for less than
a minute when comments continued. Signal was poor with QRM blocking a lot of
it.
(Chuck Bolland, October 21, 2007)
Peru, 5939.24, Radio Melodia, 1002-1020 Noted a male in steady Spanish
comments. He's
putting a lot of expression into his comments, indicating this might be
something other than
just news. Splatter from a lower freq interferes with the audio. Lots of
splatter in this neighborhood.
At 1009, Huaynos music heard. Canned ID by a female while music is playing.
Signal was poor.
(Chuck Bolland, October 21, 2007)
Peru, 4826.45, Radio Sicuani, 1013-1020 Initially heard a female in Spanish
comments. This followed with
Spanish comments by a male. Mentions Iquitos and Lima once or twice, Also TC's
periodically. Comments
continue by male. Signal was poor. (Chuck Bolland, October 21, 2007)
China, 9500, China National Radio 1, 1020-1035 (Tent) A really polished format
with Chinese
comments and promos. Tried to find a parallel to confirm this, but nothing
found this early.
Signal was fair but dropped to poor once in awhile. (Chuck Bolland, October

I recommend: I have build a Noise Reducing Antenna (by Dallas Lankford)
which has improved my DXing ability considerably. Unfortunately, contrary
to what I had hoped, I live in a very noisy environment. With the NRA attached
to one of my antennas, I am able to reduce the RF noise to a minimum. You
can find the instructions at this link:

Hello DXers,
I managed to get a good copy on the DX Test of WIRL, Peoria,
Illinois, on Sunday morning, October 21, 2007 at 0705 UTC on 1290 KHZ MW. I
just now sent them a professionally printed reception report form with all of
my details including funds and stamps for return postage hoping for a QSL card.
I have a ferrite bar loop pointed south that is mounted outside a second floor
window and when I tried to reach it to turn it toward Peoria I almost fell so
it stayed aimed to the south but still with good results.

In spite of less than ideal conditions, it looks like Sunday morning's WIRL
DX Test was quite successful. Initial reports indicate it was heard in
Texas, Pennsylvania, Oregon, Wisconsin and Tennessee. More details will
follow as I continue to hear from other folks around the continent.
In the meantime, I encourage DXers to send Chief Engineer Wayne Miller an
e-mail thanking him for his efforts. Even if you don't want a QSL or didn't
hear the test, a "thank you" goes a long way in building good will.
Wayne's e-mail address is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Please keep those e-mails coming to me and let me know how successful you
were at hearing the test. Hot Diggity - we're off!

For international broadcasting in general, probably not. I personally have
always thought it was a good idea that came a decade too late. The refusal
of the main commercial receiver manufacturers to commit to full-scale
production of DRM receivers means that it has not had the chance to reach
the vast majority of potential users. Now many international broadcasters
are re-focusing on TV rather than radio, so within these organisations DRM
has a fairly low priority.
However, certain countries such as India seem committed to DRM, so it may
prove to be a useful technology for a limited number of markets. Radio New
Zealand International uses it primarily to feed a better quality signal to
its partner stations in the Pacific, without the expense of satellite
distribution.
And, of course, since I work for Radio Netherlands International, I must add
the disclaimer that these are my own opinions, not necessarily those of my
employer :-)

Hi Andy,
Agree with you "a good idea that came a decade too late".
Teach the 18 to 36 year old focus group in the US; see XM satellite
receivers exerting basic influence. IBOC questionable- iPods may have
replaced AM whatever with this group.
Thanks for sharing your views!!!

Any transmitter that can be coerced into transmitting
in the single-sideband mode can transmit DRM. In
fact a DRM exciter delivers the "Kahn" elements in
that it outputs an amplitude component (to go to the
amplitude modulator) and a phase-modulated carrier
component which provides RF excitation to the
transmitter.
