** CHINA. Firedrake check July 10: at 1322 nothing on 8400 but audible on 9000;
at 1341, 13970 JBA, but 14430 good; at 1349 nothing found in the 15.7 MHz area;
at 1352 fair on 17500, nothing around 18320 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CUBA. RHC UT July 10: at 0551 Spanish on 6140, 6120 and very poor signal on
6000; in fact it was marred by splatter from much stronger RHC English during
music on 6010, // 6060. Cuban Commies vs Cuban Commies!
RHC is still running an extra(?) transmitter in the mornings on 11800, and it
is still very distorted, at 1339 July 10 during sports segment. See also
RUSSIA. However, at 1342 the big signal on 13780 was missing, tho 13680 and
13760 were nominal.
Is RHC still on the air at mid-day contrary to schedule? Yes, July 10 at 1847
check best on 11760, audible on 13760, and a weak signal probably RHC as
before, on 11800 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. VOI, July 10 at 1327 on 9526-, ID with the usual three
frequencies, only one of which applies at any given time, but they never say
which; Indonesian Wonders feature about how to get from Jakarta to the north
coast of Java to enjoy eating fried eels; 1332 into next show, Miscellany. Fair
signal with no QRM, but summer QRN (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** RUSSIA. VOR, Khabarovsk, 12000, July 10 at 1338 in Chinese, motorboating,
QRMing itself. No RHC, which should wisely keep away from this mess, but when
will they eliminate 12000 from their morning frequency announcements? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOUTH AFRICA. 11690, good signal July 10 at 0544 with VTC fill-music loop,
no announcements in next few minutes, instead of scheduled R. Okapi for CONGO
DR via Meyerton. Loss of audio feed happens fairly often with this 0400-0600
transmission; why? What a waste (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TUNISIA. RTT, 7275 with Arabic music at 0555 July 10, but open carrier on
7335. The latter plugged in the audio for abrupt join in progress at 0558 to
become //. 0600 timesignal and presumed news.
Both frequencies are registered for 0400-0800, and Aoki believes that too, but
their true spans never really match. The WRTH A09 update is closer, so while we
are at it, full schedule from that:
