Peru, 3329.58, Ondas Del Huallaga, 1026-1040, Naturally this is mixing with
CHU. However, Ondas del Huallaga is audible with a male in steady Spanish
language comments. Don't know the topic, but could be either religious or
political judging from the tone. At 1035 canned promos noted for a few
minutes. At 1037 the original gent returns with his talking. Signal was
poor.

** ALBANIA. R. Tirana, English to N America check, Nov 12: at 2100 sign-on, via
Shijak site 7510 at S9+18, slightly stronger than // 9345 but low modulation on
both, hard to understand. At 2110 I could turn the volume way up, but the noise
level went up too as the carrier was not strong enough for full quieting as is
sometimes the case with undermodulated Cairo.
Meanwhile, the CRI English relay via the C?rrik site on 7285, with China Drive
show was S9+20 but well-modulated and easy copy. At 2127, listening to 7510, as
announcer outroduced a program of songs for the one hundredth anniversary of
something; at 2128, 9345 went to IS, and 2130 signing on Albanian, now with
somewhat better modulation. 7510 transmitter switches to 6005 primarily for
Europe and not audible here.
The 0330-0400 English broadcast on 6110 is finally free of Cuban jamming, which
had stayed on this frequency weeks after and hours after its target Voice of
America vacated the frequency. Lack of propagation is certainly not the reason
for no jamming being heard, as Arnie Coro on RHC is inbooming on 6140. R.
Tirana well heard with adequate modulation at 0333 Nov 13; no jamming, but now
I can hear some light co-channel interference underneath, probably Radio Fana,
Ethiopia, more likely than Lhasa or Srinagar. Is that QRM bad enough further
east or west to consider a frequency change?
The 0430-0500 English broadcast on 6100 is co-channel to TWR Swaziland, but it
was hoped in the southern summer a couple hours after sunrise this would not be
a problem in North America. And so it was not, at 0431 check Nov 13, but
unfortunately the Cuban jamming is still running here. Tirana was more or less
on top of it, anyway. The DentroCuban Jamming Command may be less likely to
give up jamming 6100 at 0430, since 6100 is still an active Radio Rep?blica
frequency, even tho it`s only used at 11-12 UT weekdays via Sackville. Should
we then look for a better frequency for Radio Tirana? And you never know what
Cuba will do next, so it`s too early to conclude that the 6110 jamming is gone
for good (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BULGARIA. R. Bulgaria still missing from 15700 at 1450 check Nov 13. Other
frequency at 13-15 is 11700, not heard either but maybe still on (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GABON. As previously noted, Africa Num?ro Un has been missing from 17630 in
the 1300-1500+ UT period, opening the frequency for DW via Rampisham in German
until 1400, then CRI via Mali in English. I haven`t checked for ANU`s next
frequency 15475, but Ra?l Saavedra, Costa Rica, found it missing already Nov 9
after 1600. So is their other frequency, 9580, also off? It`s from a separate
transmitter since its schedule was/is 0500-2300, overlapping the others.
Nov 12 at 2034 there`s a discussion in French giving phone numbers before a
music break at 2036-2038, but can`t catch an ID for sure. 2102 I find news
about Africa in French on 9580, 2108 about football, and finally at 2109:30 ID
in passing for Africa Num?ro Un. So the station is still going on SW, but one
transmitter is down. They would be well advised to find different frequencies
to come back on, free of interference, but I bet they don`t; this also applies
to 15475 which collides with Antarctica 15476 at 1800-1900 weekdays (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. It`s been a few weeks now since I have been able to confirm XEXQ is
active on 6045, in morningly 49m bandscans around 1330-1430. About all I can
detect is a carrier, which could be from Asia, and the adjacent channel 6040 is
getting stronger. Has anyone heard tell-tale classical music at this or other
times recently on 6045? Or at least Spanish, excluding KBS via Canada at
0600-0629? (Glenn Hauser, OK, Nov 12, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NEW ZEALAND [non]. RNZI made a sudden frequency change at 11-13, from 13840
to 13660, but showed on their website schedule grid that 13660 ran another hour
until 14 (times rounded off). That would have meant two AM frequencies at once
along with 6170, which would be unusual but possible since that`s during the
break in DRM service and the DRM transmitter can also operate on AM. However,
the extra hour was contrary to what Adrian Sainsbury mentioned on Mailbox, and
as of 1530 UT Nov 13, that portion of the sked had been corrected to show:
1059-1158 13660 AM 9870 DRM NW Pacific, Bougainville, PNG, Timor Daily
1158-1258 13660 AM NW Pacific, Bougainville, PNG, Timor Daily
1300-1550 6170 AM Pacific Daily
Good thing it is not really on 13660 during the 13 hour, because when I checked
Nov 13 at 1345 there was a good signal in Russian, i.e. R. Liberty via
Lampertheim (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN [and non]. Altho I had previously heard REE later in the afternoon on
9630 instead of originally scheduled 9640 in B-08, on Nov 12 at 2041 check they
were still on 9640, with some co-channel under, so not clear if or when they
are switching to 9630. 2030-2100 is when REE needs to be off 9640 because of
Poland via French Guiana in German back to Europe (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Altho the day before it was just barely audible on 11715, on Nov 13
KJES was loud and clear, S9+22, at 1457 with praisinging, 1500 two ``can you
hear me?`` IDs, one by adult, another by child, and into catechisms. In English
before and after 1500; no break in transmission at hourtop and no perceptible
difference in signal, tho they may have rotated the log-periodic in accordance
with FCC-scheduled change from 70 to 350 degrees. Huge disparity in signal from
one morning to the next could be due to occurrence of sporadic E, or maybe due
to extremely low power one day, full power the next day (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WBCQ, 7415, with its first airing of WORLD OF RADIO 1434, Wednesday
Nov 12 at 2030, good here, and repeated at 2200 on weaker 15420-CUSB. This is
the new M-F 2030-2100 slot carrying recent WORs from the archives, but on Wed
or Thu when the new edition is ready, I expect that one to be played (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. Afrobeat from VOA African service, in the 20 UT hour, checked
Nov 12: best from Botswana on 11975, next best from Bonaire on 13710, and also
audible from S?o Tom? on 6080. After 2100 on Wednesdays it`s Classic Rock from
VOA Music Mix, this time featuring the Rolling Stones, at 2131 check with Paint
It Black, Mother`s Little Helper, and more. 6080 is still on from STP, but
11975 is CRI in French via Mali, and now from VOA, Greenville is best by far on
15580 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA [non]. The numbskulls at RNV CI are still playing that
4-years-out-of-date schedule announcement, starting with San Francisco at 11 am
on 13740, just as I tuned across 11680 at 1521 Nov 13, so in disgust, I kept on
tuning (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15790-15820, OTH radar-sounding pulses, Nov 13 at 1449, like what
was previously heard centred on 15090. These fit neatly between Israel 15785
and WWCR 15825 avoiding interfering with either. Kai Ludwig in Germany was
hearing exactly the same thing at 1400, calling it a ``buzz carrier`` rather
than OTH, and it started out as a clean carrier on 15805 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Israel National Radio Goes Spanish
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/128376
by Israel National Radio Staff
(IsraelNN.com)
Israel National Radio has launched its first ever radio program in Spanish.
Named "Leche y Miel" (Milk and Honey), the show reaches out to Spanish-speakers
in Israel and abroad bringing them "the sweetness of the Land," according to
show host Rafael Kaufmann.
"This will be a pro-Israel Spanish communications channel promoting Jewish
values, love of the Land, and love of the Shomron, where I live today," says
Kaufmann. The new host was born in Uruguay. It broadcasts live every Tuesday
from 2:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. Israel time and is available as a podcast.
The first episode features an interview with Dani Dayan, Chairman of the
Council of Jewish Communities in Judea and Samaria, about the new, massive
public relations campaign promoting Judea and Samaria. Also, Uruguay-born Rabbi
Daniel Stavsky on the concept of "spiritual geography" and the Land of Israel
in the week's Torah portion.
Gabriel Ben Tasgal, the Spanish news editor of Guysen News speaks about the
situation in Gaza and the up-coming Israeli general elections. Finally, Sergio
Goldstein a veteran immigrant from Argentina and counselor at the Jewish Agency
Aliyah department gives two important recommendations to new olim.
Rafael Kaufmann is the Director of the South American Desk in the International
Liaison Office for the Samaria Regional Council. He was born in Uruguay where
he studied Jewish and Zionist education and is a licensed tour guide, former
IDF soldier, and former community emissary in Colombia and Brazil. Rafael is
also a guide for the March of the Living trip to Poland. He currently lives in
Samaria.
Below is a summary in Spanish of the first show, and a biography of Rafael
Kaufmann.
En el nuevo programa "Leche y Miel", Rafael Kaufmann, quien lo dirige,
entrevista a diferentes personalidades. El primer entrevistado es el editor de
las noticias de Guysen en espa?ol Lic.Gabriel Ben Tasgal, quien habl? de la
situaci?n de tensi?n que se vive en la franja de Gaza y tambi?n sobre la
situaci?n de los principales partidos pol?ticos en Israel a medida que se
acercan las elecciones generales. Rafael antes de hacer escuchar la canci?n
"Am?n" cont? un poco sobre su historia y ley? la traducci?n de la misma..
Semana a semana el Rabino Daniel Stawski nos comentar? sobre la parash? de la
semana conect?ndonos a la geograf?a espiritual de Israel. Otro de los hu?spedes
del programa fue Dani Dayan, Presidente del Nuevo Consejo de Yesh"a (Judea,
Samaria y Gaza) quien platic? sobre la campa?a lanzada para fomentar el turismo
de Israel?es en Judea y Samaria.
Para finalizar y tambi?n, parte de la propuesta semanal es entrevistar a un
nuevo o no tan nuevo inmigrante que nos cuente su experiencia personal. Esta
vez fue entrevistado Sergio Goldstein, quien inmigr? hace ya 20 a?os desde
Argentina y quien trabaja hoy en la Agencia Jud?a como encargado de
autorizaciones de Ali?, Sergio dio dos consejos al nuevo ol? "Paciencia y
perseverancia".
Rafael Kaufmann nace en Uruguay, recibe educaci?n judia y sionista. Hace Ali? a
los 18 a?os, se gradua en la Universidad de Bar Il?n en Estudios de la Tierra
de Israel, tiene Licencia de Guia Tur?stico Internacional, y tambi?n estudio
cursos de administraci?n de asentamientos. Sirvi? en el Ejercito. Durante
cuatro a?os fue Shaliaj comunitario y educativo en Colombia y Brasil y es
tambi?n guia de grupos a Polonia en la tradicional Marcha de la vida.
Actualmente trabaja como Director para Am?rica Latina de la Oficina de
Relaciones P?blicas del Shomr?n, viendo en su funci?n la oportunidad de
conectar a comunidades jud?as de la di?spora con comunidades del Shomr?n
mostr?ndoles la importancia de la colonizaci?n del Shomr?n y la necesidad de
apoyar su desarrollo.
Rafael vive en el asentamiento de Tzufim, casado con Keren y padre de cinco
hijos.
