** CHINA [and non]. Trans-Pacific conditions were poor on 120, 90, 75 and 60 m
the morning of Oct 2, but Firedrake was still making it on 49m, e.g. at 1340 on
6095 // 6085 // 6030.
I see people still running across this ``traditional Chinese music`` on many
frequencies and wondering what it is in various DX publications, despite
discussions of this for years in DX LISTENING DIGEST, which I cannot force
people to read in order to be well-informed. Perhaps part of the problem is
that Firedrake is not listed as a `station` in WRTH or PWBR, even tho it has
become one of the world`s major `broadcasters`.
Interesting to compare CRI transmitter sites at 1346 Oct 2: 9570 via Habana had
very low modulation, making squishing sound at peaks. 9650 via Sackville, //
but offset, had much better modulation but was splattering/spurring out to
plus/minus 10 kHz, and more weakly to plus/minus 20 kHz. No CRI audible on 9560
vs R. Australia, unlike a previous day, so maybe that was a fluke or depends on
unusual propagation (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUAM. On 9900, Oct 2 at 1357 found VG signal in what sounded like an Indian
love song; 1358 ID in S Asian language with postal address, ``namaskar`` and
off immediately at 1359* Is my PWBR next to the radio any help? Of course not!
I risked spraining my wrist for nothing. It shows something starting at 1400
but nothing ending at 1400. So as usual one must consult the much more accurate
and up-to-date online resources, once the computer is turned on.
Aoki shows KTWR Guam, daily 1345-1400 in Santali, 100 kW, 285 degrees. Eibi
spells it Santhali and in the readme explains that it`s spoken in India by 5.5
megapersons, and in Bangladesh by 150 kilopersons. WRTH says target is E Asia
rather than S Asia. All agree it is the only KTWR broadcast on this frequency
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDIA. AIR GOS, 9690, again making it Oct 2 at 1348, good modulation, but
over some co-channel QRM also producing a ripple-fast SAH. Woman was speaking
clearly in English in a tribute to Gandhi, pro-non-violence, ``dialogue is the
only way to prevent terrorism``. Outroduced at 1353 by less intelligible YL
announcer, so could not copy the attribution, into rap music and immediate
tune-out (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** JAPAN. Previously around 1300 on R. Nikkei, we have heard English lessons
and German lessons, and on Thu Oct 2 at 1302 there were French lessons for
Japanese listeners, on 6055, about goings-on in Paris (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA SOUTH [non]. KBSWR, 9650 via Canada, Thu Oct 2 at 1240 in English with
Korean language lessons on the theme of bank transaxions. One really needed
printed material to follow it. And even better, some printed won (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. Have barely been able to detect a carrier from XEXQ lately, but
heard much better Oct 2 on 6045: 1222 tune-in, good modulation with classical
cinema music from an epic western, familiar but I could not place it. No
announcements. Much better copy than under-modulated CFRX 6070 with 4x the
power; and also better than XEOI 6010 which is also 4x the power, nominally,
further than SLP and normally has the upper hand in this time period. At 1230 a
SAH of 72 per minute started from another 6045 station, = 1.2 Hz, but no
detectable modulation and not too obtrusive. However, online schedules do not
show anything starting at 1230 on 6045.
Rechecking at 1249: Spanish announcement in progress mentioning Universidad
Aut?noma de San Lu?s Potos?, which is all one needs for a definite ID, besides
the paucity of classical music on SW, any other 6045 station in particular. Now
the QRM had changed a lot with a fast SAH, flutter, and het or tone: the latter
no doubt from Vladivostok warming up for the VOR Chinese broadcast at 1300. At
1257, XEXQ was playing Albinoni`s Adagio, an extremely beautiful piece for
which all other stations should QRX or QRT in deference. But no! At 1300
Chinese talk started from VOR. Recheck at 1332, VOR had faded down and XEXQ
again dominant with some more classical music, and was still stronger than 6010
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. See USA for Brother Scare et al., on WINB
** U S A. Brother Scare via WINB, 9265, Oct 2 at 1341, mixing with ``running
water`` ute QRM for part of the 1343 minute; and not // Brother Scare via WWRB,
9385 --- at least no // detected during a minute of listening to each
frequency. If you don`t like what he`s saying on one station, just tune to the
other! Then what?
Just when is B.S. on WINB? Their online sked displays it this way, rather
inconveniently, in EDT:
The Overcomer
Mon-02:00P, Tue-02:00P, Wed-02:00P, Thu-02:00P, Fri-02:00P
[= M-F 1800 UT, for how long? One hour]
The Overcomer - Bro. Stair
Sun-05:00P [2100 UT, for how long? 1 hour per sked by time, so why isn`t this
included in the following entry?]
The Overcomer (1 Hr.)
Sun-02:00P, Mon-05:00P, Tue-05:00P, Wed-05:00P, Thu-05:00P
Fri-05:00P, Sat-05:00P [Sun 18-19 so why isn`t this included in the first
entry? And Mon-Sat 21-22 UT]
The Overcomer (3 Hr.)
Sat-02:00P [1800-2100 UT]
The Overcomer (4 Hr.)
Sat-10:00A [1400-1800 UT]
Note that on Saturdays only, or rather The Sabbath, this adds up to a
continuous 8-hour broadcast 1400-2200.
Frequencies? At the top of the page it now shows:
Frequency Schedule (EDT)
0630 - 0800 9265 kHz [1030-1200 UT]
0800 - 1700 13570 kHz [1200-2100 UT]
1700 - 1800 11520 kHz [2100-2200 UT]
1800 - 2300 9265 kHz [2200-0300 UT]
11520??? I was almost convinced the 21-22 UT hour, which only carries Brother
Scare, came via DTK in Germany. WRTH, HFCC and EiBi do not have this hour at
all on 11520 from anywhere, and Aoki lists it as USA but no further details.
The latest FCC update as of August 14 does not have 11520 as WINB or any US
station.
We hear the broadcast just about any day, and it seems to us the audio is
appropriate for DTK and not WINB. However, the WINB schedule shows it filling a
one-hour gap between 13570 until 21 and 9265 from 22, so it would seem to be
their own transmitter.
Even so, another possible scenario is that it is WINB only in the sense that
WINB is being relayed via Germany. But the latest M&B/DTK schedule dated Sept 5
does not show 11520, only 13810, 17485 and 6110 for TOM = The Overcomer
Ministry, at other times. Yet another scenario is that 11520 may have been
relayed from Germany for a while this summer, then transferred to Red Lion.
We must listen closer to any IDs at beginning or end, and also whether there is
any overlap with 13570 and 9265. Furthermore, whenever we tune 13570 with BFO
on, we find that the frequency is unstable with a pronounced warble, and if it
is the same transmitter, that should also happen on 11520 (and 9265). That may
be the clincher once checked. But why doesn`t FCC have 11520 on record??
While we are looking at the WINB program schedule, we find this for Tony Alamo:
Mon-11:00A, Mon-03:00P, Mon-06:00P,
Tue-11:00A, Tue-03:00P, Tue-06:00P,
Wed-11:00A, Wed-03:00P, Wed-06:00P,
Thu-11:00A, Thu-03:00P, Thu-06:00P,
Fri-11:00A, Fri-03:00P, Fri-06:00P
Or put much more conveniently, converted to UT: M-F 1500-1600 & 1900-2000
13570, 2200-2300 on 9265. So we may hear how he responds to the charges against
him, and whether these broadcasts get canceled.
Let`s also check the Family Radio relay times on WINB, which can cause
confusion with Harold Camping & Co. showing up here despite his dozen
transmitters in Okeechobee and ever-expanding overseas relays. There can never
be enough droning from this unordained authority with seemingly limitless
broadcasting resources:
Family Radio - English
Sun-08:00A, Sun-09:00A, Sun-08:00P,
Mon-08:00A, Mon-09:00A, Mon-08:00P,

[I.e., much more succinctly, converted to UT, one hour each and with
frequencies: Daily 12-13 9265, 13-14 13570, 00-01 9265.]

[I.e., much more succinctly, converted to UT, one hour each and with
frequencies: Daily 11-12 & 23-24 9265.]
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. VOA, 9510 via Thailand, Oct 2 at 1345 promo for vice
presidential debate ``Friday morning`` at 0100 UT. WTFK? Of course not! But VOA
is normally on the SW air anyway to Asia at this hour. See our previous reports
about special frequencies added for Africa, America.
VOA, 9760 via Philippines, Oct 2 at 1354 with USG editorial delivered by YL,
criticizing Malaysia`s Internal Security Act allowing jailing of any
opposition; mixing with CRI on 9760 but clear on // 9510 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA [non]. Since the relay was so fouled up the day before, [see CUBA
in previous report] I checked 11705 again Oct 2 at 1243. This time RNV was
axually being broadcast and in Spanish, but somewhat distorted and with
occasional audio dropouts for a fraxion of a second.
At the moment, a sports segment, with listeners addressed as ``usuarios y
usuarias``, i.e. male and female users! I have never heard any other
Spanish-speaking station do this, so I wonder why RNV uses this terminology. Is
it a Venezuelan thing, or a Bolivarian thing with ideological implications like
``comrades``? Or are they implying listeners should be addicted to RNV
broadcasts?! Also for our amusement, occasional Windows cues mixed with the
talk (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Wait a minute: I got so carried away with the 11520 anomaly, that I failed to
note that per their sked, at 1341 on 9265, WINB is supposed to be carrying
Family Radio instead of Brother Scare! So the FR sked via WINB is further
questionable. Furthermore, WINB is supposed to be on 13570 after 1200 UT, let
alone 1300, per their own schedule, and online schedules. Could BS heard on
9265 be something else? Nothing else listed except WMLK, which also uses 9265,
but not scheduled anywhere near that hour either, and has been silent for
months. I did not check 13570 at that time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING

We've had the last three days off here in Kabul for the Eid al Fitr holiday
and it's been a lot of fun just DX'ing! Looks like I picked up all the
religious and clandestine DX today.
QTH: Kabul Afghanistan
Receiver: WinRadio G303e
Antenna: 100m longwire
7245, TAJIK, V. of Tajik, in AR (? according to sked, but sure didn't sound
like AR...maybe accent), 2 Oct at 0400. S4 signals until tx'er faulted off
at around 0403, then back at S3 and lower modulation. Dunno what tx'ers
they are using, but the old Brown Boveris we had at VoA Tinian during my
stint there used to always choke and puke if the mod levels went too high
(it's a protective circuit actually), so maybe this happened here - or
someone leaned on the emergency shutdown switch (that happened too!).
Does anyone have a valid email address for Voice of Tajik?
7460, USA, R. Payam-e Doost, in Farsi to Iran. OM talk with nice
instrumental mx at 0312 on 02 October. S/off right at 0315 after a string
of IDs. Nice strong signals, S4 without any jamming. This is the Bahai'i
Faith getting their 2 cents in.
11530, CLAN, Denge Mezopotamya, in Farsi at 0435 jammin' with pop music on
Oct 2. S4 sigs and no QRM and only light QSB. Call me crazy, but the music
sounded like a combo between traditional Arab, Judas Priest and Sparks! I
actually sat and listened for awhile.
12035, CLAN, SW R. Africa, in English at 1743 on Oct 2 with reporters and
discussions about the situation in Zimbabwe. I remember a year or so ago
they were almost forced off the air due to lack of funds. How fortunes have
changed! Signal was weak (not beamed towards my area), but no interference
to be heard (again possible that I just can't hear the QRM - or that
Zimbabwe is too bankrupt to run the jammers!). I still occasionally look
lovingly at my
QSL from the old Rhodesia Broadcasting Corporation....
13810, GERMANY, Bible Voice Broadcasting via Nauen, 1659 with Horn IS into
Tigrinya programming on 02 Oct. Signal was weak but otherwise in the clear,
so it was intelligible. They were aiming at East Africa, so it's a decent
catch for me off the side lobe of T-Systems' antenna. Listing in WRTH is
under Canada for headquarters. OM annxr was going to town with what seemed
to be a real fire and brimstone sermon, interspersed with African gospel
chanting and music.
15230, AUSTRALIA, CVC The Planet, in English with gospel rock countdown at
0930 GMT on 2 Oct. Very slick production with PSAs including one where the
announcer lists over twenty reasons to give someone why you do not want to
have sex, including this gem: "I'm not old enough," and the more structured:
"I'm concerned about my future education and earning possibilities," and
"money isn't that important to me." The PSA was almost two minutes long.
Gotta hand it to the Holy Rollers, they got all the bases covered. Wonder
how this is working for them? Very good signal with some fading.

** EQUATORIAL GUINEA [and non]. R. Africa, 15190, big carrier at 1954 Oct 2,
just barely audible modulation. Why can`t some stations ever get their act
together and keep it together? If you don`t have any significant modulation,
can`t you tell that is the case at the transmitter and just turn it off? What`s
the point of burning the kWh? Bulletin: you can`t have one without the other
and claim to be `broadcasting`. Well, you can the other way around, SSB
modulation and no carrier, but this isn`t that. Maybe RA should consider that
if they can only rely on one of the two. Not that we really care, since all
they broadcast are gospel huxters, even those facing criminal charges of child
porn and sexual abuse. I listened to a few seconds of Tony Alamo on WINB and
right away heard him talking about fornication (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. Observations of the US Vice Presidential debate, starting
at 0100 UT Oct 3: at the last minute, WBCQ announced it would broadcast the
debate live on 5110-CUSB. Audible here running 15 seconds behind C-SPAN; I
wonder what WBCQ`s source is. Kudos for being the only known private US SW
station performing this public service, while there were none at all for the
first Presidential debate.
With local noise sources running, I scanned all bands from 16 to 60 meters at
0118-0123 and could not find a single VOA frequency with the debate, altho
there surely were some on the other worldside. 15595, which was barely audible
for previous debate, could not be detected now. There was however, an open
carrier on 6040 at 0123, and it signed on as usual at 0129, but instead of
Spe-cial Eng-lish immediately joined the debate in progress. A minute later the
VOA announcer talked over the debate which did not pause for him, to say it was
``special simulcast coverage`` and invited e-mail reaxions to debate @
voanews.com Then found same on // 9820, also as before. And as I write at 0142
UT, I bet both of them go off again at 0200 in the middle of the debate.
Most surprising was discovering live coverage of the debate, with immediate
voice-over translation into Spanish, from REE, Spain on 9535 and much better on
6055. Shames VOA Spanish which was not doing it. After 0200 these should be
joined by several other REE frequencies, 3350, 9630 via Costa Rica, 6125; and
6020 should already be on via CR as well.
BTW, I cannot detect any correxion in Sarah Palin`s lenses, making me suspect
she is wearing glasses for some other reason, such as to make her look more
intelligent. See my Tips for Rational Living Commentary in upcoming DX
Listening Digest 8-110 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Following up my earlier observations of WINB: silly me, I assumed the
schedule on the WINB website was correct. Well, stations are entitled to the
benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise by axual monitoring, which is
extremely easy to accomplish, as RHC has also found out.
I had certainly heard 11520 between 21 and 22 with Brother Scare, several times
in past weeks, but not any more. At 2058:30, 13570v went from the Fence Lake,
New Mexico preacher to sign-off announcement, talking over the Star Spangled
Banner! And these gospel-huxters are supposed to be super-patriotic? That`s
equivalent to flag desecration. They don`t quite get what you are supposed to
do with the SSB, which is: play it all the way thru unimpeded, even if it is a
shortened version, when signing on or off.
Announced QSY to 9265, no mention of 11520, cut off with SSB still playing at
precisely 2059:08. Meanwhile I was standing by on both 11520 and 9265. Nothing
ever came up on 11520, but a much weaker signal than 13570 came up exactly one
minute later on 9265. It had the same warbling unstable carrier as 13570 when
monitored with BFO. Did not sound like Brother Scare programming; signal built
up a little bit by 2106 when I could be sure the singing on 9265 was not // the
B.S. talking on WWRB 9385. If another site was carrying B.S. on 11520 during
this hour, it was inaudible. Reception from Europe was not very good, but
Vatican to Africa was audible on 11625.
So WINB is not using 11520, which the FCC has not listed anyway, and contrary
to its own claimed schedule, switches directly from 13570v to 9265v at
2059-2100 UT. Also, as noted earlier, it appears WINB stays on 9265 at least
two hours longer in the morning than the authorized 1200 switch to 13570. And
then there`s the YFR and BS programming which does not match the schedule
either. Multiple things are amiss here. Cf my comments under EQUATORIAL GUINEA
about getting act together (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
