Bolivia, 6134.77, Radio Santa Cruz, 0930-0945 Noted a male in Spanish
comments
for a minute, then at 1033 local music. Lots of mixing with Brazil station
on 6135.
Best heard using AM ECSS. But there's not escape from the terrible noise on
the
bands this morning. (Chuck Bolland, September 10, 2008)
So much noise this morning. It's reasonable I suppose because of the
hurricane Ike
being nearby, but chances are when the hurricane departs, the noise will
still remain.
Big headache!

** ASIA. Didn`t have time to log details, but tnx to lower local line noise
level, and not too much T-storm activity nearby, a scan of 60m Sept 10 at 1225
found weak signals audible from the usual suspects in North Korea, China, and
Indonesia: 4450, 4460, 4750, 4790, 4830, 4870, 4900, 4920, 5030, 5050 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** AUSTRALIA. Sept 10 at 1235 I was hearing lengthy marine weather forecasts
extending a few days futurely, on 6507-SSB. Hard to catch geographical details,
except for St. Helen`s Point, which a Google search immediately pins on
Tasmania. Had SSB 2-way QRM on the high side. Klingenfuss 2002 SW Guide shows
five Strines on 6507: VID Darwin, VIM Melbourne, VIP Perth, VIS Sydney, VIT
Townsville. I suppose by proximity VIM is most likely. Perhaps they are on a
rotating schedule (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. On the sixth day after reactivation, CFRX frequency adjusted much
closer to 6070.0 after starting out around 6069.85v. Sept 10 at 1218 it had a
subaudible heterodyne of approximately 6 Hz against presumed remnants of CVC
Chile. CFRX continued to weaken, but carrier without the SAH still detectable
at 1421, 1507 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. CKZU, 6160, holding up later as we get into autumn, Sept 10 at 1413
with Vancouver traffic report; Spanish 2-way SSB QRM from 6157 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. As expected, the jamming break tnx to Ike did not last long,
but seems not to have ramped up to full force yet again.
The morning of Sept 9 as in my last report, jamming was missing on Mart? and
WRMI frequencies. I did not have time for a thoro check in the afternoon, but a
quick check at 2206 found lite jamming back on 11930. Also, Venezuela relay
missing in the morning, was back at 1955 on 15290.
UT Sept 10 at 0530, RM was over jamming on 6030 and 7405. RHC was still missing
from 6000, and English on 6060 had better modulation but weaker signal than //
6140.
Next survey started at 1212: 6000 was finally back on, in Spanish at this hour,
but with QRDRM from Australia 5990-5995-6000 and from the Asian het on 6003.
Other RHC frequencies were on as usual too.
At 1228, just before closing 5980, RM was VG and no jamming audible, nor any
once RM was gone; at 1241, 7405 was mixed with jamming, and at 1245 RM was over
the jamming. At 1255, RM 13820 VG with no jamming audible, but may have been
overriding it, as RHC 13760 was quite weak.
CRI relay on 9570, missing the day before, was back at 1246 check. As was RNV
on 11705 at 1249, but with low modulation and hum.
WRMI, 9955, was jammed again at 1247, both from pulses at the rate of about 132
per minute, and weaker continuous bubbling. However, at 1421 recheck, the
jamming was gone leaving a weak signal in English, presumably the usual R.
Prague program from the day before (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUATEMALA. R. Verdad, 4052.5, always reliable, checked Sept 10 at 0548 and
started to hear an ID with station address by YL in what sounded like Swedish!
But could have been another Scandinavian language; then into hymn with local
piano accompaniment. The final broadcast hour is normally in English, or make
that non-Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. XEPPM, R. Educaci?n, made another of its rare daytime appearances on
6185, Sept 10 at 1411 tune-in. I had not noticed it a couple hours earlier when
I was scanning the band and Habana was still on 6180, so I think XEPPM must
have deliberately turned the transmitter back on rather than forgetting to turn
it off at 1100*
This was apparently prompted by the `special programming` for the Bienal, as
explained in DXLD 8-100, without any specific information about when it would
be on the air. The Bienal was mentioned, but then the hour was mostly about a
Festival Cervantino in Guanajuato, and lots more discussion of Cervantes and
Don Quixote. Apparently some celebration about them is going on now, as REE has
also been reading and discussing this in the 1300 hour since Sept 8; see SPAIN.
XEPPM signal was quite good at the start, but faded down a bit in the following
hour. At 1444 again mentioned S?ptima Bienal, discussed radio via Internet. The
remote special wrapped up at 1500 with a return to the cabina, ID for XEEP MW
1060 only. By then 6185 was the strongest signal on 49m, and almost the only
one, besides WBOH 5920.
My local line noise level has relented, probably only temporarily, so I checked
for other carriers, finding 6070 CFRX; and 6045, must be XEXQ at the late hour
of 1508, along with bits of audio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN. REE, 17595, Sept 10 at 1306 again starting special series about
Cervantes instead of Cl?sicos Populares. Mentioned ``caballero`` literary
tradition in other European countries, then into Don Quixote. XEPPM also into
Cervantism special: see MEXICO (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SUDAN [non]. Southern Sudan Interactive Radio Instruction, Sept 10 at 1259
on 15390 was vamping with music, and shortly before 1300 English ID as starting
part 2 of English lesson; poor with fades. Then identified as Program 98, for
beginners.
At 1303 found same kind of thing with frequent doorbell cues, on 15760, but NOT
//. These are both M/W/F only at 1300-1330 via South Africa, at 7 and 5 degrees
respectively (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Today heard with R. Rossii programming from around 1550 until s/off at 1612
on 9494,75 kHz. R. Rossii ID's at 1559 and 1611.
At 1615 the other transmitter appeared on 9495,57 kHz, slowly drifting to
9495,56 kHz. It had extra carriers on ?100 and 200 Hz causing hum, which
wasn't present with the earlier transmission. The latter transmission
sounded like a cultural programme, but was not // 261 kHz R. Rossii.

Is this station the one I am hearing now by any chance? Or is it Radio
Rossi? Passport shows "georgia"
It has a fair signal to Puerto Rico with strong noise. Signal is going up
and down slowly.
Due to language barrier I can not understand what is bee said but
transmission is on Russian language. Its 18:51 utc 2:51 local time in San
Juan. I am using a Kenwood TS-570S into my Ham 3 element yagi.

Luigi (not Hector?),
If it was really on 9494.75 that certainly points to Abkhazia, but WYFR in
Russian via Uzbekistan is scheduled on 9495.
9495 1700-1900 USA WYFR Family Radio R EEu /UZB
Suggest you refer to frequently updated online schedules such as EiBi:
http://www.eibispace.de/dx/freq-a08.txt
rather than Passport which is AT LEAST a year out of date.
You might have heard a Family Radio ID or theme music, interval signal by 1900.

** CANADA. CHU plans to move from 7335 to 7850 with an upgrade ``this summer``
but only one sesquiweek is left to meet that goal. Still on 7335 as usual at
2142 check Sept 10 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. R. Africa, 15190 remains active most of the time; Sept 10
at 2122, large S9+20 signal but North American preacher undermodulated. Recheck
at 2245, still audible with distorted audio under stronger WYFR in Portuguese
which starts at 2200. Christians vs Christians! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** IBERIA. Both REE in Spanish on 15110 and RDPI in Portuguese on 15295 were
sending overblown coverage of some silly ballgame, Sept 10 at 2123. I wonder if
it was the same game, but don`t really care (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. WRNO back on the air UT Sept 10, having last been heard on UT August
30 just before a hurricane hit. They were supposed to resume at 0100-0400 UT
the transmission on 7505, but no sign of them by 0115 UT Sept 10. They were on,
however at 0205 recheck; but off early too at 0355 check.
Bruce Barker got a tip from WRNO by e-mail that they were about to return,
which also said they had been down for power loss, not because of any damage to
antenna or tower. However, missing August 31 was well before there should have
been any power loss.
Next night, UT Sept 11, at 0059 carrier was on and started promptly at 0100.
First news item was from Global Witness, about genocide in the DR Congo. Then
items about Zimbabwe, Afghanistan, Mr. Kim Jung-Il, Russia vs EU over Georgia,
Lebanon --- ``brought to you by Jonathan Peter, as reported by the BBC``.
Went on to say that WRNO Worldwide was not affected by Gustav, now praying
against another hurricane planning to hit Houston/Galveston, they hope, instead
of New Orleans. And then some music which drove me away immediately. I don`t
listen much, but the live DJs seem to act as if they are in New Orleans instead
of Fort Worth. Isn`t NOLA merely the transmitter site now? (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** U S A. I was getting a bit concerned Wednesday Sept 10 at 2100, when WORLD
OF RADIO 1425 did not start on WBCQ 15420-CUSB, but instead the New Mexico
preacher went right on babbling. Finally WOR started late at 2110 and ran until
conclusion at 2138:40, during which the signal faded down somewhat. Serves as
another reminder that if you don`t hear WOR at scheduled time on WBCQ, don`t
give up (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. Harold Camping on 12055, Sept 10 before and after 2130, but not
// WYFR 13615/11565, and 12055 did not sound at all like WYFR, instead with
``generator hum``. This is registered as Ascension at 21-22, 65 degrees.
Perhaps the upgrade there needs some tweaking. They certainly use generators,
but normally filter out the hum (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
