MEDIA BROADCAST to deliver expertise as media partner for 2010 FIFA World Cup?
in South Africa
MEDIA BROADCAST has partnered with South African telecommunications company
Telkom SA and systems integrator Telecom 180, to provide video contribution
services for the FIFA Confederations Cup South Africa 2009 and the 2010 FIFA
World Cup? South Africa.
The partnership teams the diverse capabilities of each role-player and
leverages the vast expertise of MEDIA BROACAST, the local knowledge of Telecom
180 and the infrastructure and network capabilities of the main contractor,
Telkom SA Ltd.
This project will require efficient project management, innovative technology,
maximal availability and international teamwork. ?Thanks to the professional
broadcast of the World Cup in 2006 and other successful implementations of
national and international major events, we are ideally equipped to meet these
high demands,? explained MEDIA BROADCAST Chief Executive Officer, Helmut
Egenbauer.
The scope of the project primarily encompasses the broadcasting of the
television images and other services from the venues to the International
Broadcast Centre in Johannesburg. Based on high-speed fibre-optic
infrastructure by Telkom SA Ltd, MEDIA BROADCAST is planning, building and
operating a sophisticated IP-based broadcast platform for all types of
contribution networks and video signal distribution, including high-resolution
HDTV images. Services will commence this coming June during the FIFA
Confederations Cup being held at the Bloemfontein, Pretoria, Rustenburg and
Johannesburg stadia. The following year MEDIA BROADCAST will be broadcasting
the 2010 FIFA World Cup? from a total of ten stadia.

Solomon Islands, 9541.50, SIBC, 0817-0830, Noted two males discussing
current
affairs in English language. Seemed that this portion of the program was
pre-recorded.
At 0900 a local announcer gives the news in Pidgin language. At 0907 a
female
continues in Pidgin with some English words noted. Signal remained fair
during
the period. (Chuck Bolland, May 6, 2009)

** INDONESIA. Looking for VOI on reactivated 11785, May 6 at 1300 in English,
but could not unearth it below the barrage of at least two ChiCom echoing
jammers starting with a 5+1 timesignal, and VOA Chinese. Tried for a few more
minutes and again later in the hour but no trace of VOI, so either totally
buried, not propagating or off the air today.
Meanwhile 9525 remained empty as VOI foolishly abandoned what had been a good
clear frequency for them during the 1300 hour only. Tried 11785 again at 1400
when the radio war stopped, but now could hear nothing but weak Hindi from BBC
Singapore, which is no doubt a big obstacle for Indonesia`s 1400 Malay
broadcast when it is on 11785 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** RUSSIA. VOA and NHKWNRJ aren`t the only SW stations with regular jazz shows:
Wednesday May 6 at 1356 was hearing jazz drumming on fluttery 12065, which must
be VOR as scheduled via Chita. Indeed their grid at
http://www.ruvr.ru/main.php?lng=eng&w=225&p=
confirms the Jazz Show is on at 1330 Wednesdays. Other times are: Wed 1930,
2230; Thu 0630, 1130; Fri 0230, 0830, 2030, 2230; Sun 1630; Mon 1030, 1630; Wed
0630. Has home-grown jazz improved since the Soviet era? Has anyone figured out
a pattern to VOR program repeat times, or is it just random? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. The DentroCuban Jamming Command continues to interfere with
WRMI 9955 even when it is in English and even when it is broadcasting a new
WORLD OF RADIO for the first time, Wednesday May 6 at 0500 as I checked the
last couple minutes at 0526. WRMI is often inaudible in the nightmiddle, but
this time it had a fair signal plus jamming pulses rather than noisewall. WYFR
9680 and 9715 were meanwhile extremely strong. Yet DXers Unlimited doesn`t get
jammed; Arnie obviously has no sense of fair play. BTW, if you listen to him in
Spanish, he sounds a lot less ``friendly`` than he does in English (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WEWN`s dirty transmitters only 20 kHz apart, 11530 in English and
11550 in Spanish, May 6 at 1403 effectively block anything else from 11510 to
11570, as they produce mixing products on those two frequencies, and 11530 also
has the spurs around 11520 and 11540 previously reported. The squealing sound
could also be heard on 11510. Add to that the general receiver overload and
desensitization. There are a number of IBB broadcasts in this range (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VATICAN. 15235 in Vietnamese, May 6 at 1351. What does PWBR `2009` say?
Vatican Radio in unknown language to SE Asia, but in Winter season only ---
here it is Summer. HFCC confirms it is in fact SMG beamed eastward in
Vietnamese at 1315-1400. VR`s Vietnamese services reach us well in NAm, making
us wonder just how direxional their antennas really are (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST) ###
