Ciao,
My Catalan friend Jordi Brunet came to Bocca di Magra (Liguria region,
Italy) to listen the radio with Dario Monferini and me. I made a video,
testing some radio, maybe you can enjoy yourself:

Radio Damascus - Urgent appeal :
My friends at Radio Damascus are asking to monitor both frequencies which are
registered at Radio Damascus : 9.330 Khz and 12.085 Khz .
Although I haven't personally monitored 12.085 Khz for a very long time, some
listeners did think to have heard the Spanish program of Radio Damascus
recently again on this frequency (see Glenn Hauser's DX LISTENING DIGEST 9-010,
February 1, 2009).
Maybe Radio Damascus re-activated 12.085 Khz again.
My own monitoring of Radio Damascus on 9.330 Khz in Belgium gives the following
results :
18.00 UTC : German : if on the air, fair to strong signal (1)
19.00 UTC : French : idem but heavy interference from Radio Farda (?), using a
transmitter in Kuwait (1)
20.00 UTC : English : only on satellite - no shortwave
21.00 UTC : English, second hour : no reception on shortwave -
?? ??? ??? ????????? signal too weak
22.00 UTC : Spanish : idem as English at 21.00 UTC
(1) Very weak modulation. Even when 9.330 Khz is on the air with a strong
signal, it is very difficult listening because the extremely low audio signal.
May I ask all listeners of Radio Damascus, wherever they are, to monitor both
frequencies (9.330 Khz and 12.085 Khz) in the coming days and to send their
comments and reports to this email address :
[email protected]
Please also report on the modulation.
I will forward every report immediately to the head of the English section at
Radio Damascus.

locutora con noticias, emisi?n en paralelo por 9330, a las 18:02 se observaba
portadora sin modulaci?n, pero poco a poco va llegando, buena se?al con un

Por fin, y aunque nos ha costado un gran esfuerzo, hemos conseguido publicar un
n?mero m?s del bolet?n diexista Club S500. Es un bolet?n record con m?s de 30
secciones (o art?culos) y con un anexo dedicado a una comparativa de radios
antiguas. Sigue caracterizado por su colorido en sus im?genes, y ahora a?adimos
miniart?culos que de seguro ser?n de vuestro agrado. Entrando en materia, en
este n?mero 17 pod?is encontrar: Los sellos y la radiodifusi?n, El radio club
de la Universidad Polit?cnica de Valencia, 75 a?os de Radio Castell?n, una
visita a una exposici?n de receptores en Paiporta, una recomendaci?n de viaje a
un museo en Valladolid (Espa?a), El mensajero de la VOA, Una torre-radio en
Chequia, el papel de la radio en la guerra de las Malvinas, un festival a?reo
en Valencia (Espa?a) como otra forma de Dx. Sin olvidarnos del comentario
invitado, esta vez a cargo de Jaume Terricabras, una dedicatoria especial al
desaparecido
Pancho de La Voz de Rusia, nuestras salidas nocturnas de agosto, un completo
art?culo del genial ?lvaro L?pez Osuna sobre la historia de la radio en Espa?a.
Y a todo ello hay que sumarle las secciones habituales de: escuchas, tabl?n de
anuncios, radionoticias, historietas de la radio, la radio en prensa (con la
Pirenaica), y si os dedic?is a las utilitarias un art?culo sobre
Dx-utilitarias. Para terminar exhortaros a todos para que os sum?is a la
campa?a para solicitar de la Real Academia de la Lengua Espa?ola (RAE) que
reconozca los t?rminos Diexismo y Diexista, y los incluya en su diccionario.
Para ello incluimos una carta modelo para rellenar y enviar al Secretario de la
RAE.
Esperando que satisfaga vuestras expectativas pod?is mandarnos vuestras
sugerencias y opiniones como siempre.
El bolet?n se encuentra en PDF y pesa 12 MBytes, se descarga de la web:

tipo google las palabras "Club S500".

A propaga??o por aqui ontem 02/02 estava horr?vel, justamente quando estava
testando a nova forma??o da antena fio longo. Agora com 20 metros, triplo
aterramento sendo duas hastes em terra e uma em um tanque de ?gua, fio de
cordoalha em uma altura de 8 metros e uma inclina??o de +/- 20 graus, sloper. O
coaxial ? de 50 ohms da marca Pirelli, infelizmente ainda n?o deu para saber o
rendimento com respeito a anterior devido ? propaga??o ruim e aos ru?dos. Ouvi
algumas transmiss?es entre 8000 e 9000 kHz que n?o constam nas listas, em 8760
kHz eu j? li algo a respeito, acho que atrav?s dos boletins do Glenn, n?o tenho
certeza, as outras estou preocupado, ser?o imagens do degen? Se for ser? a
primeira vez que as vejo por aqui e come?o a ficar preocupado... O coment?rio
sobre a tx(???) do Observat?rio Nacional ? um desabafo a teimosia dessa
transmiss?o horr?vel. Tem chegado muita portadora com sinal baixo e ?udio pouco
aud?vel em OT e para piorar os ru?dos s?o fortes, os que estive!
rem utilizando-se de uma antena dipolo est?o com ?tima oportunidade de escuta
nessa faixa. Tenho prefer?ncia em logar emissoras de 100 kW para baixo, salvo
algumas com pot?ncia maior e que aparecem aqui esporadicamente. Ainda essa
semana desejo logar um band scan por faixa das que chegam por aqui para
refer?ncia as tentativas de colegas ca?adores. As escutas que estiverem
informadas como "gravado" podem ser ouvidas em
http://www.ipernity.com/doc/75006/home?t=74925&c=6&s=uploaded . Na oportunidade
gostaria de parabenizar ao novo ATDX que est? ficando cada semana melhor,
parab?ns a todos os envolvidos na publica??o. As corre??es que por ventura
existam nesse log ser?o muito bem vindas. Que esta semana a propaga??o d? o ar
de sua gra?a por aqui e por ai. Boas escutas e excelente semana a todos,

incompet?ncia atrav?s das ondas hertzianas, sem nota SINPO para esse sinal
esp?rio no ?ter, ou se preferir -1-1-1-1-1. N?o consigo entender em que essa
transmiss?o pode contribuir para experi?ncias ou estudos cient?ficos,
sinceramente eu n?o vejo motivo para isso estar no ar a n?o ser a teimosia e a
falta de humildade de seus dirigentes que est?o pondo em rid?culo essa
organiza??o. Atrevo-me at? a falar algo, pois segundo eles ? uma transmiss?o
para pesquisadores e eu sou pouco menos que leigo. (Jorge Freitas - Feira de

** ALBANIA. R. Tirana, 13720 to NAm, Feb 2 at 1542 with ID, then item about the
World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Albanian angle. Some fading, S9+10
to 15, and good modulation. Hope that keeps up (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** ECUADOR. HCJB, 11920, Feb 2 at 2248 with declamation by missionary in
clearly enunciated, unlike a native-speaker, Kulina, Brazilian Amazon Indian
language scheduled 2245-2300 at 150 degrees. Shortly into duet with a song to
the tune of ``Silent Night``, long after Xmas; I am not sure a literal
translation of the original German would make much sense in the jungle, so
would not be surprised if that carol tune has been reworked into something
else, as common among hymnalists. 2251 segu? to OM solo mentioning Maria. Rest
of show was instrumental music rather than Bible readings, 2259 into Portuguese
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ISRAEL [and non]. 15785 with SAH estimated at 11 Hz between two roughly
equal stations, one in Arabic, i.e. WYFR at 45 degrees, and the other
presumably Galei Tzahal in Hebrew. WYFR is scheduled on this frequency only at
1600-1645, and this was at 1601 Feb 2. Aoki says GZ stops at 1600, just in
time, but not today. WRTH and PWBR say 24 hours and 10 kW while Aoki says 5 kW
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SAUDI ARABIA. BSKSA, 15435, Feb 2 at 1505, VG signal with Qur`an, but the
buzz is back --- it sounds like something frying, which may be exactly what`s
happening somewhere in the transmitter, tho so far it has not burned up! It`s
easily audible but not strong enough yet to impede readability. The recitations
were interrupted every few minutes for some slow talk in unsung Arabic; //
15225 which was as usual weaker, and no buzz detectable. Not // 13710, another
BSKSA program which was also Qur`aning. By 1530, the buzz had cleared up on
15435 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. Standing by for WRMI to switch to NW antenna on 9955, Feb 2
at 1459, just heavy Dentro-Cuban jamming against previous program, R. Cuba
Libre; can`t have any talk of a free Cuba, now, can we? 1459:30 I could tell
the WRMI carrier came on, but still too much jamming; at 1501 could make out
English, presumably R. Prague relay as scheduled (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. OTH radar pulses, presumed, weak, 9185-9205 at 1456 Feb 2 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 13830, some ute with a whine, but on BFO, multiple carriers
evident at close separation, Feb 2 at 1503. Perhaps we can expect more utility
activity on this frequency now that R. Solh has been abolished (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 17515, 5-digit spy numbers in Spanish by robot YL, Feb 2 at 1602,
with ``Atenci?n, 86082 18381 37422`` repeated twice when I intuned, then just
86082 repeated thrice, and into secret message of other groups (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
