** BIAFRA [non]. V. of Biafra International, Fridays 1900-2000 via WHRI had
been on 17520 reliably since April, so did not even reconfirm it last week, but
July 10 it was missing! Axually, I see the last time I bothered to log it on
17520 was June 5, but I think I had still noticed it there a week or three
later. Now soon found at 1930 on 15665 instead, a previously used/scheduled
channel, in Ibo at the moment with English words mixed in such as
``self-determination``, apparently a non-native concept to the Biafrans. 1933
back into full English exhortations. Has their website
http://www.biafraland.com/vobi.htm been updated to reflect this? Of course not!
Still shows long-abandoned 15280 and an hour later than reality.
Yet that pages linx to last four broadcasts playing immediately by clipstream,
including July 10. Monitored the opening for any possible frequency
announcement: none at the start, none after ``Finlandia``, none after ``All
Hail Biafra`` before ``let us pray`` either, which went immediately into a song
instead. Nor after that before the news against the awful Nigerians. And still
no frequency mentioned in the ID after that (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake survey July 11: at 1326, poor on 8400 and not // fair 9000.
At 1343, poor on 13970, very poor on 14430. At 1350, poor on 15600. At 1354,
fair on 17500 // 13970. Nothing on 18320. At 1406, very poor on 15150. 1407
still on 15600 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. RHC July 11: at 1343, 13780 and consequently leapfrog on 13880 back on
the air unlike yesterday. 11800 also on with usual heavy distortion. 1432
listening to 11760 with Cancionero Iberoamericano, starting with a Guatemalan
group with a Quechua name (? That`s what she said; maybe meant Quich? or
Kekch??). Recheck at 1502 to verify which frequencies remain in use for
additional midday broadcast about Honduras: no 12000; 11800 off, for the
moment? But 11760, 13760, 5965 and 6000 still audible (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** LAOS [non]. 11785, WHRI, Saturday July 11 after Hmong Lao Radio hour,
additional semihour, Hmong World Christian Radio, but it plays exactly the same
music and doesn`t sound that religious; at 1425 with long list of businesses in
St. Paul, Hminnesota area, presumably sponsors, or just Hmong-owned ones.
Noticed a lite SAH of about 2 Hz despite very strong signal from SC.
1429:30 cut to WHR in English plugging its webcasts, including from `KWHR`, a
neat trick since that station no longer exists on SW, abolished almost a year
ago. 1430 into Call to Worship, from Zion Chapel of Holland (Michigan?); still
on with more religion past 1500 unlike weekdays (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 27185, local yokel no doubt in Enid with non-skip strong signal
playing lo-fi country music, blocking the CB calling channel, July 11 at 1400.
Another time there was ear-splitting wideband tone jamming the frequency.
People sure know how to have fun on CB!
Then at 1403 came upon an SSB contact on 27435. Unlike most CBers, not in love
with their own voices with reverb, etc., but normal tones, QSO between Tom and
someone discussing breakfast in standard English. Could have passed for real
hams, except no IDs heard until 1404* Suspect local as skip was not in e.g. on
WWCR 15825, CB channels were not multi-deep hetbuckets (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** RUSSIA. 12000, VOR Khabarovsk, July 11 at 1337 from song to Chinese
announcement amid motorboating steadily worsening from day to day. Is anyone
paying attention at the transmitter or Moscow HQ? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** SAUDI ARABIA. Saut ul-Buzz, 15435 already on the air at 1457 July 11,
eventually some Arabic talk audible beneath it. BSKSA management must be
totally oblivious and/or shameless to allow this to go on for so long; not to
mention totally incompetent on the engineering side (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Surprised to find VG signal on 15675 with jazz, Saturday July 11 at
1351, soon confirmed as VOA // 9760 PHILIPPINES, and running about 4 words
behind 9760 during announcement which soon followed, as having been Christian
McBride; then Ed Palermo Big Band playing music of Frank Zappa (try Googling
that), on Jazz America from VOA Music Mix. 1400 directly into VOA news with
Gloria Gibson about Ghana, but vanished at 1402; how rude. 15675 must be
Greenville testing, currently really scheduled weekends only at 17-18 in
English. And confirmed at 1703 check in news (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. WYFR, 9680, July 11 at 0547 as I tuned across mentioned
matter-of-factly that 2011 would be the last year the world exists, someone
else quoting Harold Camping with backup from the non-Mayan Christian Bible.
Does it really say 2012* is the end? So much for that. Hey, might as well give
FR most of your money now for more and more droning relays, since you won`t be
needing it much longer. Until then, will keep SW relay brokers in the pink
while further driving away listenership (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WRMI, 9955 with DX Partyline starting Saturday July 11 at 1500, with
heavy DentroCuban jamming still running. This is an unscheduled time for DXPL,
per http://www.wrmi.net/program.php?id=94 effective March 14 and probably due
for a revamp. I should have checked after 1530 for WORLD OF RADIO which also
shows there (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9300.0, 2-way Spanish SSB at 1334 July 11. One of them has enough
background noise (engine?) to keep the vox on during pauses, mentioned temp 38
degrees, and I think I heard a ``puta madre`` go by, typical discussion of
genealogy by poachers or narcotraficantes (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 11776, weak unstable carrier hetting PMS Anguilla 11775, July 11
at 1340, not noticed before. Could not find a match in the area; has that
`North Korean sound`, but could also be parasitic from WHRI 11785 on the air
weekends only. Hoped to catch it vanish when WHRI signed off, but that kept
going past 1430 and 1500 with gospel huxters in English, as 11776 had weakened
to inaudibility (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15450, July 11 at 1346 poor signal with talk in unID language,
Asian? Could Turkey be on late by mistake past 1320? No, only thing that fits
is BBC Bengali via ``Armavir``, RUSSIA, per WRTH A-09 update, scheduled
1330-1500 Saturdays only, which would explain why I haven`t noticed it before.
This language service recently shifted some times and frequencies earlier due
to timezone change in Bangladesh to UT+7, but this transmission was not
mentioned, so maybe stayed same (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Low Power FM Radio Goes High Power
Latest News from
New Zealand's Micro-Broadcasters
__________________________________
Unique to New Zealand's radio market are over 1,350
micro-broadcasters who have entertained the islands for almost two
decades.
Some have now migrated from covering a suburb or small town to
hundreds of square kilometers radiating from prime new local FM
frequencies.
The Radio Heritage Foundation maintains the only comprehensive guide
to these local FM stations in the NZ Low Power FM Radio Guide at
www.radioheritage.net.
Now with over 1,350 entries, the NZLPFM guide is invaluable for
listeners, new stations and existing stations alike. It has also been
the basis for a major historical academic review of the LPFM radio
scene in New Zealand demonstrating its value for heritage research as
well.
We've added a number of LPFM stories and images to
www.radioheritage.net and you'll find coverage of One Christian
Radio [New Plymouth], Southside 107.7FM [Auckland], Hospital Radio
[Timaru], Reef Radio [Auckland] and Howick Village Radio [Auckland].
Check them out today!
At the NZLPFM Blog you'll also find news about RAG-FM [Raglan], SubFM
[Tauranga] and the postage stamp issues promoting World FM
[Wellington] and Blockhouse Bay Radio [Auckland]. Access the blog
from www.radioheritage.net.
Congratulations to Country Radio Invercargill now on high power 105.2
FM covering Southland with country music, and Pulzar FM
[Christchurch] now bringing the latest dance beats to Canterbury on
105.7FM.
Both have come a long way from serving a few listeners, proving that
LPFM is not only entertaining Kiwis and building communities but can
'grow up' into independent and commercially viable formats with high
power FM.
The Radio Heritage Foundation is pleased to support New Zealand's
1,350 plus micro-broadcasters with free listings in the NZLPFM Radio
Guide, free promotion in the NZLPFM Blog, coverage of feature
articles at www.radioheritage.net, historic research resources and
much more.
We welcome contributions, stories, memorabilia, heritage material,
audio, images and more about any LPFM micro-broadcaster in New
Zealand. Tell your story to the world!
