Leaving the 27 eligible private FM radio companies in
the lurch, the government has, for the second time,
postponed the bidding for 97 FM radio stations across
48 cities. The bidding will now take place on December
29 and January 10. The Ministry of Information and
Broadcasting had earlier re-scheduled the bidding to
December 17 and January 7. No reason has been given
for the latest change.

Hello Again,
In my last post I forgot to thank Chief Engineer Frank Luna,
and the test arrangement by Paul Lotsoff, assisted by Patrick Martin. At the
least it gave me something to try for other than the run of the mill DXing.

Hello DXers,
I regret to report that my attempt at hearing KEVT during
the test was a flop. I had overwhelming QRM from WPHT in Philadelphia, Pa. and
couldn't null them enough using my home brew directional outdoor loop. I
switched to my long wire and managed to mostly null them using the MFJ
Versatuner II but then all I ended up with was a mish mash of at least four
stations down in the mud causing somewhat of a het and making all unreadable. I
tuned up on 1210 KHZ at 0700 UTC and worked at receiving their signal for two
hours before giving up. At least four times I briefly heard Spanish but not
readable and at the top of each hour I couldn't copy any station Id's in
English. Needless to say I couldn't get enough for a good reception report to
send to them. I guess that there's too many miles between KEVT and me. I hope
that other DXers had better results than I did. Good DX to all!

Sweden, 6065, Radio Sweden, 2250-2300 The schedule is between 2230 to 2300 for
an English
broadcast. Tuned in late today however. Noted news about Sweden, URL and ID
with brief
music at 2259. Signal was fair with splatter and QRM. (Chuck Bolland,
December 17, 2007)
Spain, 6125, Radio Exterior Espana, 2300-2310, From 2300 to 2305 noted news
presented by a
male and female. At 2305, canned ID as,. "...en Radio Exterior Espana ...".
This followed with
comments from a male and female again. Signal was good. (Chuck Bolland,
December 17, 2007)
United Kingdom, Cland, 6135, Radio Republica, 2308-2330 With Spanish comments
from various
persons. In between, music presented. During comments, many mentions of
"Cuba" and "Venezuela".
More music afterwards. At 2329, full ID as, "... Radio Republica ... la Voz de
Cuba ... la victoria .. Cubano". Signal was good but I can hear a bubble type
jammer inside of it. This probably originating out of Cuba.
(Chuck Bolland, December 17, 2007)
Unident, 6155.22, 2330-2345 Noted a station here in Spanish comments by male
and female talking.
Signal was poor and couldn't hear details well enough, so I am reaching out for
help if anyone is
DXing now. (Chuck Bolland, December 17, 2007)

I just received a group of photos taken at USCG Radio Station Guam/NRV in the
early 1980s. This was when Morse code was still alive and well, along with 500
kHz CW, etc. SITOR was just beginning to get off the ground and SATCOMM was not
even in the Coast Guard's vernacular (at least not on Guam!). If anyone would
like copies of the photos, I'll be happy to send them. Likewise, if someone
wants to post them somewhere, I'm sure that will be OK too.
