Mexico, 6104.76, XEQM, Radio Merida, 1040-1100, Noted
a male and female in Spanish language conversation. At
1045 noted promos mentioning "Candela". This was followed
with music. Signal was fair to good as it continued
to fade in and out. (Chuck Bolland, September 16, 2009)

** BOTSWANA [and non]. Checking VOA self-collision at 1430 on 17585: Sept 16 at
1428 found open carrier on 17575, which is the warmup frequency for Botswana,
and meanwhile 17585 from Greenville was JBA. 17575 went off a few sex before
1430, and VOA World News Now came up on 17585 at 1430 with much improved signal
over Greenville. So they finally are no longer overlapping several minutes,
just as James MacDonell, Nigeria reported as of Sept 12 in DXLD 9-070 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake Sept 16: at 1234, good on 8400 // 9000, only fair with
flutter on 10210. Have not heard any of the 13-18 MHz channels in quite some
time, presumably just not propagating (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. RHC musical-frequencies check Sept 16 at 0645: English on 6140, 6060,
6010; Spanish on 6120, JBA on 6000.
At 1245 Sept 16 noticed that 15120 was missing, but still on 15360 and 13760.
After 1400, all transmitters on 22m going full force: 13880, 13780, 13760,
13740, 13720, 13680 --- including CRI relay and leapfrogs (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. 9680 with qontinuous Qur`an, Sept 16 at 1425 and still at 1442,
fair with no QRM. Figure it`s RRI domestic service relay, as nothing else fits
from an Islamic country; assume even in Indonesia they get a bit more serious
about religion during Ramadan. Also considerable het on 9525 indicating another
Cimanggis frequency is propagating (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** JAPAN. R. Nikkei, 3925 good signal and hams were avoiding it, Sept 16 at
1222, classical music on Moog synthesizer, // 6055. They really love this kind
of music, often heard around this time and later. In fact, they must have
played everything available in that repertoire multiple times. Do they have a
deal with Isao Tomita, or is Wendy Carlos ever played? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** ROMANIA. 11875 in German with strange accent, Sept 16 at 1236 introducing a
Lied, then song with too much music vs voice level, as in a karaoke, another
German announcement with ID as Radio Rum?nien International. Still seems odd to
be hearing German at this hour, which is mid-afternoon in target, but aimed at
same azimuth 307 degrees from Tiganeshti as used for NAm elsewhen and
elsewhere. Meanwhile, slightly better signal on 11920 in Romanian despite being
285 degrees from Galbeni (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TURKEY. 13635 at 1246 Sept 16, YL with pursed lips talking about Afghanistan
in presumed Turkish as scheduled from VOT, fair. No sign of CVC Darwin in
English. Per Aoki they collide between 1130 and 1255, 104 degrees from 500 kW
Emirler and 303 degrees from 250 kW Darwin, which would be almost aiming at
each other! But other sources show TRT more sensibly using a 310 degree beam to
Europe, and thus also usward (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WRMI is trying out the NW antenna on UT Wed & Fri at 0700-0800, when
there are English/DX programs, i.e. Wed 0700 WORLD OF RADIO, 0730 Frecuencia al
D?a; Fri Happy Station. I managed to stay awake until 0645 UT Sept 16, and
there was no signal at all audible on 9955. Lately however, 31m has been pretty
dead by that late hour. In fact, the only signals reaching a fair level were
Australia on 9660 and WWV(H?) 10000. Was WRMI audible anywhere? We hoped this
transmission might be making it to WNAm, where it`s only midnight PDT/MST,
while local time in SAm, the previous target and still such other days of the
week, is 2-4 am. Solar flux is supposed to soar to 72 next week, so maybe that
will help (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA [non]. 11705, RNV CI via CUBA, Sept 16 at 1230 giving e-mail
address as [email protected] Good thing they said it twice, as audio
was cutting out, then feature Venezuela y su Geograf?a about Estado Sucre on
the Caribbean coast. All in Spanish during the minute I listened (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** WESTERN SAHARA [non]. Radio Nacional de la RASD is still on 6297, Sept 16 at
0644 with music and presumed Hassania talk; fair with utility QRM too close on
low side, so should have stayed on 6300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 4920 with a bit of weak music at 1220 Sept 16, QRMing CODAR. I
suppose Tibet is more likely than AIR Chennai or RRI Biak, listed in Aoki, but
presumably inactive. Only other significant extracontinental 60m frequency
audible was 4750 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 5775-5825, at 1215 Sept 16, presumably OTH radar rapid clix from
China, weak (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Bolivia, 5952.48, Emisoras Pio XII, 0118-0130 Noted two individuals (male and
female) in Spanish talk until 0122 when music is presented. Back in
conversation at 0126.
Plenty of splatter here to cause problems with details
resulting an a signal of poor quality. Condx got worst after
the half hour mark, so I dropped the target. (Chuck Bolland, September 17,
2009)
