** AUSTRALIA. RA, 11660, 2129 Sept 12 going from ``Saturday AM`` show to
``Saturday Extra``, with quick long-path echo. This is Shepparton at 70
degrees, same as on 9580 at 0800-1400 which inbooms here without an echo. The
LP is about 6.8 kilomiles longer than the SP, which makes a delay of .0366
second.
In DXLD 8-098 there was a report that 11660 is Brandon along with 9660 and
12080, but I don`t think so. EiBi and Aoki do show Brandon on 11660 at this
hour, but WRTH 2008 plus A-08 update and PWBR `2008` do not (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BULGARIA. Spanish on 11800, Sept 12 at 2148, I figured was Habana as usual,
but wait --- not // 11750, and doesn`t really sound like RHC programming, as
playing Auld Lange Syne! Turns out to be choral music program from R. Bulgaria,
Spanish ID in passing, and // 9400 at 2154. Looking at Aoki, both stations are
shown on 11800 in Spanish at 2100-2200, Habana aiming 53 degrees toward Spain,
and Bulgaria aiming 260 degrees toward Spain. I had really not noticed Bulgaria
here before, and Habana`s signal was not especially strong, but now apparently
gone, resolving a collision, which must have been bad in Spain. So what is
RHC`s new frequency for this transmitter? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CANADA [and non]. Sept 12 at 2213, found open carrier on 6070 and lite hum;
2228 maybe a trace of modulation and no SAH. I can only assume it was CFRX.
Others have reported ELWA until 2300 on 6070 with no QRM from Toronto, so do
they deliberately pause? At 2302 the usual fast SAH was evident, i.e. CFRX vs
CVC La Voz, Chile. Brian Alexander has measured CFRX on 6069.98, so it`s 20 Hz
off, altho the SAH I hear isn`t that fast, so CVC must also be slightly low
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. After the big fuss in early August about RHC swapping English and
Spanish on 6180 and 6140, so that English to NAm ran 0100-0700 on 6140, I find
Spanish back on that frequency at 0609 Sept 12. This is quite strange, since
RHC normally does not do any Spanish at all after 0500. This was not a domestic
service relay as sometimes heard on the 49m frequencies after 0700, but with an
RHC ID, news headlines and 0611 into full newscast. Meanwhile, nothing on 6180
but VOA, and RHC English on two very inferior transmitters, 6000 and worse
6060. A test, mistake, new scheduling, special, or what? RHC seems to be in
another schedule-changing mood; see also BULGARIA.
Sept 12 at 2157 found big open carrier on 9820, warming up for the Mesa Redonda
show. 2200 began playing electronic instrument excerpt from ``Siboney``, a
famous piece of Cuban music. Must be a special interval signal for the M.R.
show, rather than theme music, as it was in a loop three or four times before
announcement opening the program at 2204. The host somehow managed to
interweave two seemingly totally unrelated topix: Los Cinco H?roes, and coping
with hurricane damage. Also on weaker // 6000 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** EGYPT. R. Cairo, 11550, Sept 12 at 2130 with timesignal 33 seconds later
than WWV, ID, opening news in English by YL, and with good modulation for once!
I was expecting it to drop out after the music ceased. Unfortunately, signal
was at about equal level to co-channel WEWN in Spanish, so only marginally
intelligible, and losing out as minutes ticked by. There are plenty of open
frequencies around this area. Why do these two insist on colliding?? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GREECE [and non]. 7450 with Greek music from Macedonian service, Sept 12 at
2211, marred by constant het on low side of less than 1 kHz. Avlis is the only
broadcaster in current schedules on 7450 at any time, so presumably a utility
transmitter is getting blasted (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO [non]. Altho a few days ago XEPPM was dominating 6185 after *2300, on
Sept 12 at 2303 I found R. Nacional Amaz?nia instead, big signal in Portuguese,
totally blocking R. Educaci?n if it was even on the air (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** SAUDI ARABIA. 15435, huge S9+20 signal from BSKSA like a pipeline from
Riyadh, Sept 12 at 1709, Arabic talk and string music, 1712 ID, 1720 into
reverent speech; some generator whine, but no buzz. 500 kW at 320 degrees
toward us altho the nominal target is only Europe (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WBCQ Area 51 service, 5110, confirmed with WORLD OF RADIO 1425,
Friday Sept 12 at 2301. More modulation on USB, but some also audible on LSB
side (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Bolivia, 6134.80, Radio Santa Cruz, 2356-2359, Noted some music then a
canned ID by a
female, "...Santa Cruz ... en Bolivia". This followed with live Spanish
comments between
friends. On the hour, Cuba comes on the air splattering over Bolivia and
blocking out
the signal. BTW Cuba was on 6140 KHz. Before before Cuba came up, Bolivia
was
good. (Chuck Bolland, September 12, 2008)
Mauritania, 4845, Radio Mauritane, 0008-0030 Noted steady Arabic comments
by
a male to a female during the period. Signal was good. (Chuck Bolland,
September 13, 2008)
Brazil, 4845.20, Radio Cultura Ondas Tropicais, 0008-0030, Noted this under
Mauritane with
steady Bras pop music. In between some of the tunes, live Portuguese
comments from a
male. Believe I was listening to a live concert, but not a large one.
Probably in a studio.
Signal was poor being under Mauritane, but readable. (Chuck Bolland,
September 13, 2008)
