Indonesia, 9525.92, Voice of Indonesia, 1100-1115 I was nonchalantly
listening to VOI here when their signal dropped of the air at 1104. It
stayed
off for about a minute and then came back with a female already into the
news. So I thought I'd report it for prosperity or whatever. Eventhough
the signal was fair, I couldn't make out the language being used? (Chuck
Bolland, November 4, 2008)
Indonesia, 9680, RRI Jakarta, 1113-1120, At tune in here, noted a male
and female in Indonesian comments for a minute or two, then a short promo
break and back to live comments between two males. Signal was fair.
(Chuck Bolland, November 4, 2008)
Philippines, 9615, Radio Veritas Asia, 1118-1130 Noted a female person in
Mandarin comments over background music. At 1121 a second female joins
in. This is probably a recorded segment since it seems like they are
reading a
script simular to what we see and hear with our local TV news. So assume it
would have been prepared earlier. Signal was fair. (Chuck Bolland,

October 2008 was a good month for DX. A great place to partake of all
this fun is Granite Pier in Rockport, MA - one of the top East Coast
USA receiving sites.
I have uploaded a group of recordings (listed below) to my DX Audio
page "http://home.comcast.net/~markwa1ion/dx_audio.htm";.
Receiver = RFSpace SDR-IQ, Antenna = 2 m by 2 m car-roof
Micro-SuperLoop to DX Engineering RPA-1 Amplifier (see
"http://home.comcast.net/~dx_lab/pictures/micro_superloop.htm";)

** BRAZIL. RNA, 11780, which had distorted matching spurs the night before on
11721.5 and 11838.5, at 0737 Nov 4 heard without the spurs (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BULGARIA. R. Bulgaria, 15700 transmitter again putting out modulation spike
spurs between 15680 and 15720, Nov 4 at 1423, bothering Portugal on 15690 which
at the moment had some Brazilian talking about Carnaval (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. Two English programs mixing on 6160 at 0738 Nov 4, making fast SAH,
from CKZU and CKZN (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. I still haven`t found R. Rep?blica for sure on any
frequency, but Dave Yocis, WV reports hearing it on 9600 at 0350 Nov 2. At 0345
Nov 4 on 9600, I could hear jamming and something mixing with it, but both
weak. Why would RR go up to a higher frequency in B-season? If it is on 9600,
that will encourage the Dentro Cuban Jamming Command at least to turn it off
when RHC is using the very same frequency. I had previously heard jamming
against nothing on 9600 later in the night, so this explains that.
5745, WYFR in English heard with jamming pulses underneath, Nov 4 at 0734,
because R. Mart? uses same frequency at very different times; also jamming
against nothing at 0735 on 5890, as WWCR-4 was absent, tho present on 5935 with
WWCR-2; for the Cubans, 5890 must be jammed because VOA Spanish uses it at very
different times. And at 0739 much more serious heavy multiple-site jamming was
running against R. Mart? axually using 5980 and 6030 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. Day 19 for VOI on 9526, Nov 4 at 1335, lo-fi phone interview, in
English, audio dropouts too, with someone at RRI Banjarmasin, Kalimantan
Selatan, which used to be on SW, and then playing a song from there (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ISRAEL. Galei Zahal is often reported on varying or jumped frequencies such
as 15781, so when I heard Hebrew ads Nov 4 at 1357 I made sure to measure it:
15785.0 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KURDISTAN [non]. On Nov 4 I monitored WYFR Portuguese on 11530 to find
exactly when it would go off: 1345, uncovering V. of Mesopotamia, via
Pridnestrovye, but its signal only poor with echo (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA [and non]. Checking 1120 again for new KEOR Catoosa/Sperry/Tulsa,
Nov 4 at 1530, instead heard KMOX with talk show, ID in passing, so skywave
from it was still in and no sign of KEOR. An hour later at 1630, only KEOR was
to be heard with music segu? tests like the day before (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** ROMANIA. RRI in English on 17745, Nov 4 at 1353 about traditional r?le of
women, and the ritual of bread wreaths(?); fair signal not heard earlier in
morningly bandscans since B-08 began, so believe this frequency has just been
turned on. Also on stronger // 15105. Ending at 1355 saying next broadcast to W
Europe would be at 1800 on 7250, 9640, .wma format on webcast, Hotbird 6, WRN;
address [EMAIL PROTECTED] The IS had just played a couple notes when cut off
the air at 1356. Wolfgang B?schel says the new Tiganesti transmitters are
finally in regular service, so the nominal B-08 schedule is now in effect
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** RUSSIA [non]. VOR, English to NAm on new 7335, totally blotting out CHU,
which should hurry up and move to 7850, at 0345 check Nov 4. VOR 7335 is via
French Guiana, new relay site for them, and per DX Mix News, Bulgaria, replaces
6100 and 6135 which were used only the first few days of B-08, the former heard
with nothing but tones. At this hour 7335 was much stronger than // 7350 via
Vatican, which apparently also gave up 7335 to VOR (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WWCR 15825 was inbooming Nov 4 at 1400, tnx to off-season sporadic E,
so I reconfirmed that ``Tony Alamo`` is still being broadcast despite his
serious legal problems; opened show #725, probably recorded long ago, about
Jude, and offering tapes or CDs of it free (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. WRNO still being heard long hours testing mostly music on 7505, Nov 3
and 4. George Jacobs tells me that once the testing is finished, it will no
longer broadcast on this frequency in the 16-23 UT period when it is not
scheduled, and even before then will consider concluding it at 2100 due to R.
Tirana in English on 7510 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 5883, very strong 5-digit YL spy numbers, Nov 4 at 0737,
presumably from Cuba. This frequency is in regular use, as well as some others
late at night in the 5.8-5.9 MHz range (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. Rapid pulsing with multiple carrier peaks between 15075 and 15105
centered on 15090, Nov 4 at 1358 and still at 1420 recheck. Seems like OTH
radar, Cyprus maybe? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

873 MOLDOVA, Teleradio-Moldova, heard at 18.17 on 04 Nov with male and
female announcers, discussion and call-ins. YL station IDs several times
and confirmed with streaming audio from station. Very happy with this! Dug
out of the dirt with the MW-550P. Station power is 75kW.
1332 IRAN, Teheran City R., heard at 17.50 GMT on 04 Nov with OM
discussion panel, mentions of Obama and McCain. Good signal with MW-550P
and 300kW.
6000 GERMANY, Polish R. Warsaw via Nauen, heard at 16.00 on 04 Nov. with
Ukrainian program and very good signal strength, apparently off the side of
the beam. As might be expected, a lot of the program was about the US
elections.
6348 CLAN, R.Echo of Hope, heard at 15.22 on 04 Nov. in KR with YL in
talks. Very weak signal w/o QRM, about S2.
Really happy with the Moldova catch as well as Echo of Hope. I'm trying to
DX as well as watch the US election returns, and am hoping for great change
in both cases! In spite of all my efforts, there is still no sign of
Qatar's allegedly 1500 kW blowtorch on 954 kHz, and their website provides
no information, only streaming audio. Does anyone know the current status
of this station?
