Bolivia, 6075, Radio Causachun Coca, 1050-1105, Noted a male and
female in Spanish language conversation/comments. The topic is
probably serious since picked out words like "politico" and "Obama".
On the hour, noted a canned ID and ADs or promos. The signal never improved
beyond a poor level. (Chuck Bolland, July 17, 2009)

** CHINA. Firedrake July 17: at 1253 fair on 17470, presumably because Sound of
Hope had jumped there from 17500, where Aoki still has them listed today; but
gone at 1335 recheck (not on 18320 either, but I did hear a W4 working a ZS6 on
the 18 MHz band). At 1307 Firedrake JBA on 13970, not on 14420/14430; at 1321
JBA on 8400, not on 9000 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. RHC check UT July 17 at 0535: English on 6010, 6060, 6140; Spanish on
6000, 6120, 11760 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. For the second day in a row, no signal from VOI on 9526v, July 17
at 1319 check and later in the hour, nor on 11785 or 15150. I wonder if the
other 250 kW transmitter at Cimanggis, 9680 carrying the domestic relay is on
or off the air? It`s hard to tell here with the huge Chinese collision, at 1342
check, but seems a 3-way SAH at least. O, Aoki shows RFI 9680 only from 22 to
13 UT anyway, while ChiCom jamming and Taiwan are at 11-17 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TAIWAN. RTI Japanese service, 9735, again flanked by spurs July 17 at 1316,
slightly higher pitch buzz on 9740 against BBC than on 9730 against CRI, so
9735 fundamental was very slightly off-frequency to the low side (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Maybe it`s different in His presence, but on the radio I find ``Tony
Alamo`` totally lacking in charisma, and can`t imagine what little girls, let
alone adult women, see in him! Unless, of course, they have been brainwashed.
While standing trial in Texarkana, he keeps on broadcasting: July 17, already
at 1257 via WWCR inbooming on 15825 tnx to sporadic E, squeal plus T.A.,
interrupted by announcer at 1300 to tell us it was the ``mid-point`` of the
broadcast, Texarkana address, but no ID for WWCR as would have been
appropriate.
At 1329, T.A. was attempting to sing ``What a Friend We Have In Jesus``, a
jazzed-up version with chorus (of minors?). He can`t carry a tune, so was
lapsing into speaking the lyrix, but not completely. There is a term for that
in opera I can`t seem to recall, parlatto?
Then announcer outroed the program and into another preacher at 1330. This
timing took me by surprise, since T.A. used to be at 13-14 UT on WWCR. In fact
the updated July 1-2 program guide at
http://www.wwcr.com/program-guides/WWCR_Program_Guide.pdf
does still show him at 13-14 UT. If he really starts at 1230 now M-F, that
knocks out lots of 15-minute shows including one of the few airings of Ask WWCR
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15450, weak signal in Asian(?) language, Friday July 17 at 1337.
Nothing to account for this in Aoki or Eibi, but I logged the same Saturday
July 11, and found WRTH A-09 shows BBC Bengali service at 1330-1500 Saturdays
via ``Armavir``, RUSSIA. Now I suppose it is 7 days a week here, or at least
more than one.
Altho Dr Supratik Sanatani has complained how BBC have been unable to present
their shifted Bangla schedule accurately, perhaps someone can read this and
tell us if it includes 15450 and on what days and Universal times:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/bengali/institutional/frequencies.shtml
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
NOTE: I am well aware that a lot of my logs are of the same stations from one
day to the next. This is largely because in my daily routine there are only
certain time periods when I can usually squeeze in some monitoring. I too would
rather spread these out to different times with different results, but only
hope that tracking the behaviour e.g. of Firedrake, RHC, Voice of Indonesia,
RTI spurs, etc. will be of some historical interest. I am not the only monitor
in such a rut, and believe it or not, do deliberately avoid some re-logs when
nothing at all has changed. For example I did not bother to report Russia on
12000 today! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Bolivia, 6134.80, Radio Santa Cruz, 2255-2310, Not much of a signal
yet as the band is just getting started here in Florida. Noted a male in
Spanish comments which was very weak. Other stuff also on the freq
mixing in. On the hour, heard music for a few minutes. Signal was
threshold. (Chuck Bolland, July 17, 2009)\
Bolivia, 5952.40, Emisora Pio XII, 2314-2330, At tune in, noted a male
and female in Spanish Language conversation. Lot's of splatter from
WYFR on 5950, but Emisora Pio XII still has good audio. At 2323
somekind of promos being presented between a male and female. It
seemed to be live. Noted music at 2326. Signal remained fair during the
period. (Chuck Bolland, July 17, 2009)
Peru, 6019.30, Radio Victoria, 2329-2345, With a threshold signal,
noted a male in Spanish comments. Believe he was giving a religious
speech. Heard religious words mentioned. Signal was threshold and
needed some notching to clear up a het. (Chuck Bolland, July 17, 2009)

Note: I just replaced the center connector of a dipole antenna I have
with the Alpha Delta Model Delta-C center element. I had been using
a Budwig Man HQ-1 Center connector which looked like it had seen
better days. It was all rusted and had old solder and stuff on it. Anyway,
the gain from the antenna has doubled with the Alpha Delta center element
installed. I would recommend this upgrade to any who
might think their dipole antenna might need a new part. The Alpha Delta
kit cost me $29.95 plus shipping handling from Universal.

Actions against Venezuelan radio stations soon
He rejected reports that the elimination of the radio networks comprising more
than three radio stations is intended to uproot live baseball or soccer
broadcasts. ?Every rule has an exception,? Cabello said
Politics
Diosdado Cabello, the Minister of Public Works and Housing and acting director
of the National Telecommunications Commission (Conatel), announced that
Venezuelan authorities will begin to implement on July 17 or July 20 the first
administrative procedures against all the radio stations that have been using
the radio-electric spectrum without authorization.
The official rejected criticisms against this government move. Opposition
sectors have suggested that such measures are intended to hide official
corruption, Cabello said. "Investigate into anything you want," he added.
The head of Venezuela's telecommunications regulatory agency denied that the
government is pursuing monopolization of the radio-electric spectrum. He said
that state-run radio stations barely amount to 10 percent in all the country.
"Venezuela's Radio Chamber and opposition pundits know that the radio-electric
spectrum is concentrated in very few hands. Twenty-seven Venezuelan families
control 32 percent of the spectrum," the minister said.
The director of Conatel stressed that his speech in the National Assembly was
"transparent." Cabello referred to a hearing where he proposed eradicating
radio networks. He denied claims that he suggested revoking licenses. Rather,
he insisted that he said that the government would open administrative
procedures against several radio stations.
He rejected reports that the elimination of the radio networks comprising more
than three radio stations is intended to uproot live baseball or soccer
broadcasts. "Every rule has an exception," Cabello said.
Globovisi?n
On the case of private-run TV news station Globovisi?n, Cabello said "whether
they protest or not, we will enforce the laws." The Minister of Public Works
explained that Globovisi?n's broadcast license was awarded to two people and
one of them died. Therefore, the Venezuelan authorities are trying to recover
the administration of 50 percent of the TV channel. "They know what we want,
because the law is very clear. I know them pretty well. They went to Conatel to
cry for more licenses to broadcast. And they are right to attack me because I
will never talk to them."
Cabello accused Globovisi?n's owners of inciting the government to take the
decision of revoking the license of the TV channel. "We will revoke the license
if we have to," he warned.
Regarding cable television, Cabello said that to be an international channel,
the TV station must have at least 70 percent of international production. If a
channel does not reach this percentage, then it is not international, as it is
the case of Radio Caracas Television International, which only broadcasts
Venezuelan programs.
"We will monitor those "international stations" in order to verify their
compliance with national programming and laws," he said.
