Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
** CUBA [non]. 9810, Dec 27 at 2300, R. Rep?blica opening ``Barrio Adentro``
show, about equal level with DentroCuban jamming. Wish I had intuned a few sex
earlier in case there was a formal sign-on mentioning schedule or frequencies,
but doubt it. Signal here usually loses out to jamming not long after starting
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. DentroCuban Jamming Command again pulsing away on 11600
where there are no known opposition transmissions at any time, now or in the
past: Dec 28 at 1400 atop R. Prague in English.
Conspiracy theory: guilt by association: since R. Prague is relayed by WRMI,
and since the CIA runs WRMI, therefore R. Prague should be jammed even when it
is broadcasting direct from Czechia in languages other than Spanish, which have
nothing to do with Cuba!
11600 is not even aimed at the Americas, but 107 degrees eastward. R. Prague`s
// 13580 to NAm is not jammed, except by the RHC leapfrog mixing product of
13780 over 13680. At 1517 when R. Prague is in Spanish, jamming still going on
11600.
Jamming against WRMI, when relaying yesterday`s Prague English from 1500, was
still pulsing atop 9955 at 1509 when often it has receded (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CYPRUS [and non]. OTH radar, presumed from here, intruding in the middle of
the exclusive SWBC 19-meter band, Dec 28 at 1429 covering 15260-15290, quite
strong and severely interfering with S Asian language station on 15285.
Victim research: per Aoki, Mondays during this quarter-hour it is:
15285 GOSPEL FOR ASIA 1430-1445 .23.... Sambalpuri 250 90 Wertachtal
But there are numerous other languages we never heard of during other quarter
hours and other days of week in this Gospel for Asia block at 1230-1500. Well,
if this impedes the gospel huxters from converting numerous minority ethnic
groups away from their original religions, and consequently cultures, turning
them into good little Westernized Christians, it serves a useful purpose.
EiBi`s comprehensive SW language list at http://www.eibispace.de/dx/README.TXT
shows: Sambalpuri (dialect of Oriya) (India - Orissa)
Could also detect a carrier underneath the mid-peak of the noise on 15275:
merely DW in German via Kigali (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. No trace of VOI on 9526v, not even a carrier, Dec 28 at 1439
check. The previous week, it was absent on Sunday, Dec 20, rather than Monday
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also UNIDENTIFIED 4750
** KURDISTAN [non]. 11530, V. of Mesopotamia, good signal Dec 28 at 1403 with
chanting and clapping: YL emits a pair of six syllables each, then group of OMs
repeats them. They sound almost the same from one iteration to the next, but I
think they are changing slightly as time goes on. 1405 YLs ululating as finale,
1406 to other talk over music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NETHERLANDS [non]. 9895, Radio Netherlands` Arabic service toward North
America via RWANDA, excellent signal Dec 27 at 2212 with Arabic pop music; 2214
pause for YL ID mentioning ``Idha`at Amsterdam . . . Saut ul-Holanda`` or
something like that, again no mention of Hilversum, and right back to music,
which kept going the rest of the hour, with another ID break at 2237, this time
mentioning hunaamsterdam.nl Cut off at 2257* before announcer could complete
the final Arabic announcement.
So I am still wondering, 1) What became of Hilversum; does this really
originate in Amsterdam instead? 2) What`s the point of sending the West
Africans an hour of Arabic music from Holland? Perhaps RN has more funding for
this than it knows what to do with. I see the URLs on the website are now a
mixture of Roman and Arabic letters. Why is the website apart from
http://www.rnw.nl ?
15595 missing for R. Netherlands English, Dec 28 during bandscan around 1430.
The past few days this had been quite audible here, since moving site from
fire-damaged Madagascar, to Sweden, as in my previous report.
Here`s why, from the updated Media Network site: ``H?rby took over the RNW
English transmission to India at 1400-1600 UTC on 15595 kHz on 25-27 December.
This has now been cancelled due to poor reception in the target area.`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PORTUGAL. The defective 15690 transmitter of RDPI is still putting out spurs
at approximately plus and minus 168 kHz: Dec 28 at 1433 there was RDPI audio //
15690, on 15858 and 15522, mushy distorted FM. Fundamental was not especially
strong, but spurs easily audible. Still there at 1522 recheck (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN. Last Monday the weekly Sephardic show on REE was out of synch with
transmission time, the oddly scheduled 1425-1455, as programming was still in
progress when cut off at 1455. So I tune in 15385 earlier Dec 28: 1427 no
programming, just open carrier. This continued until 1445! When program opened,
now not only with wrong frequency ``15325`` but wrong time, ``1425``. I knew
this transmission was doomed, and sure enough, audio cut off after only 10
minutes at 1455 sharp, carrier off a few sex later.
Noblejas is still turning the transmitter on and off at the proper times, but
Prado del Rey studios are feeding the playout 20 minutes late! Some operator
thinx it is supposed to start at 1445 instead of 1425 (after all, the two
repeats UT Tue start at :15 past the hours).
Or, someone misprogrammed the automation. How much longer will this go on? Does
the service have any listeners at all at the station or in the world, besides
myself? Will any Spaniard reading this in English get word to the powers that
be? Tune in next week for another exciting episode (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Tuned in WBCQ 7415 for Marion`s Attic, Sunday Dec 27 at scheduled
time 2200 UT, but instead heard ``WGOD`` starting, which is scheduled for 2300.
By the latter time, signal had just about disappeared but I could barely detect
Marion starting with Xmas wishes; swapped by mistake, or rescheduled?
Before 2200, This Week in Amateur Radio was on, including some sound effects
coming perilously close to ``music`` I had also heard the night before on
WA0RCR 1860, which supposedly uses a legal amusical amateur-radio version of
the show (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 15016-SSB, YL with long string of phonetic letters in cyphered
message, pausing periodically, no doubt from Andrews AFB, Dec 27 at 2134; some
reverb on the audio. A descendant of Sky King? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENIN
DIGEST)
** U S A. KXEL 1540 Waterloo IA gets 50 kW skywave going early now, but it`s
mostly gospel huxters and far-right wacko talkhosts, so I was surprised to hear
Perspective from ABC News, Sunday Dec 27 at 2120 UT, breaking for local ID and
weather forecast, temp: zero. This was a year-in-review, so does KXEL carry
this secular objective news magazine every week?
Apparently, as it`s on their program schedule for 3-4 pm CT Sundays. It used to
be a don`t-miss for me wherever I could find it, when it was more like BBC`s
From Our Own Correspondent, but it`s still worthwhile, altho made up of smaller
fragments.
This does not get KXEL and countless other American AM stations off the hook
for degrading our culture with everycreep from Brother Scare to Sean Hannity
occupying gobs of airtime, and with no rebuttals. Have they no shame? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 4750, now one of the three-way clashers here is far enough
off-frequency to produce an audible het: Dec 28 at 1442 during music. I suspect
both the music and the het were attributable to RRI Makassar, which has never
been exactly on frequency; the others being Bangladesh and China.
Going strictly by Aoki, Makassar would be out since it`s listed to close at
1355, and there are two Chinese to choose from:
4750 CNR 1 0900-1735 1234567 Chinese 100 ND Hailar?
4750 PBS Qinghai 0900-1600 1234567 Chinese 50 270 Xining 4750
R.BANGLADESH BETAR 1255-1530 1234567 Bengali 100 ND Shavar 4750 RRI
Makassar 0745-1355 1234567 Indonesian 20 ND
But the latest Ishida Indonesian monitoring list at
http://www.max.hi-ho.ne.jp/a-ishida/ins/
confirms Makassar is on until 1500. Unfortunately, he does not get into
split-kHz precision frequency measurement (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST) ###
