** ANGUILLA. June 11 seems to be a watershed date. Not only does VOI lose its
modulation, but Pastor Melissa Scott is in the clear without the crosstalk from
1610 programming which has been heard daily for a couple of weeks in the
mornings. June 11 at 1347 check. Defunct Gene Scott also in the clear at 1502
check (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake check June 11 at 1356: poor on 14420 and 9000, not heard
anywhere else, such as 13970 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUIANA FRENCH. 13640 with strong open carrier, some fading, June 11 at
1355-1357*. Strongly suspect Montsinéry, which uses this frequency supposedly
only until 1230. 57 minutes past the hour is a favorite cutoff time from
numerous automated sites, and I suspect some misprogramming here, possibly
connected with the RFI strike. This frequency has been heard before on the air
at times well beyond its schedule (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. Surprised to hear an open carrier on 9525, June 11 at 1330, no
hum. Listening closer, I can barely detect a YL speaking, sounds like the usual
VOI hostess in English, but now barely modulated. Getting rid of the hum is
fine, but not the rest of the modulation (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA NORTH. VOK frequently has transmitter problems on 11735, such as June
11 at 1350 when the Chinese service frequency was warbling with rumble and
whine, QRMing itself; and with BFO seemed centered closer to 11734.6. 11710 in
English by comparison was fine; and VOK`s technical prowess suffered by
comparison to adjacent VOA in Korean, quite clear on 11740 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** RUSSIA [and non]. 12000 with disco-beat music mixing at about equal level
with RHC sports report in Spanish. That`s the V. of Russia khlash from
Khabarovsk. They took turns dominating, June 11 at 1340 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST) ###
