Hello OM's,
This letter came in by mail today.
It states that Lourdes Lopez from Radio Havana, Cuba, is retired as of now.
Lourdes Lopez answered al listeners letters and mails to RHC for the past
years and did it well.
(although sometimes it took al long time)
I wish her well and hope she may spent her coming years in good health with
her family.

"YEAR 52 OF THE REVOLUTION."
Dear Friend:
May I get in touch with you once again to say hello and inform you that
I've retired, so now I'll be able to spend more time with my grandchildren.
I want to tell you that, one of the greatest pleasures in my lifetime is to
have worked in Radio Havana Cuba for more than 40 years and particularly, to
have been in regular contact with you, esteemed listeners and friends.
I'm retiring but I'm happy because the group I leave behind share similar
feelings and the privilege of communicating with the friends of Cuba in
every continent. The new Head of the Department is Rosario Lafita Fern?ndez,
with 30 years of experience in the job, who will continue the beautiful
work I've done with so much love.
With the assurance that you'll stay in contact with our beloved shortwave
station.
Lourdes L?pez

Jorge, since this was in English, before 1530, and not on Saturday or Sunday
and apparently had no interference, this was really Miraya FM, from Sudan,
via IRRS, Italy via Slovakia back to Sudan. See our frequent reports about
how it collides with R. Mada. MAYBE by next weekend one of them will have
moved. 73, Glenn Hauser

Pyongyang-KRE in 1400-1600 UT range. Came across of MNG in English at 1530
UT with fair signal until cl-down at 16.00:23 UT on Feb 16th. Charming sound
of young lady announcer in best Cambridge english accent. Little disturbed
by tiny hiss of Korean domestic service KCBS Pyongyang on adjacent
odd 9665.44 kHz.

A directive from the New Zealand Government to Radio New Zealand to
cut costs has been discussed in Parliament today.
Various options have been floated so far but one that might be great
for New Zealand MW DXer's (but not so great for Overseas DXers trying
to log them) is
"going off air after midnight until 6 am has been floated by Radio
New Zealand bosses as they fronted a Parliamentary select committee
hearing today"
I presume this may only be for domestic MW/FM services but could
affect RNZI SW.

** CHINA. Firedrake Feb 18 at 1406: 8400, very poor with flutter. At 1507 had
improved considerably, as found // on new 7560 with poor signal. No target
audible under, and none listed, tho Aoki Shows VOA Tibetan starting at 1600 via
Thailand. So we can only make the usual guess that the peripatetic Sound of
Hope drew ChiCom jamming to 7560 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See
also SPAIN [non?]
** COSTA RICA. Missing yesterday from 15170, REE relay is back Feb 18 at 1418
check, well atop Romania (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GERMANY. 12035, Feb 18 at 1521 with preacher in English referring to Romans
X:2, poor signal. Aoki shows Bible Voice Broadcasting, but on Thursdays at this
time it is supposed to be in Urdu, English from 1530, 100 kW, 90 degrees via
Wertachtal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also USA [non] YFR
** INDONESIA. VOI, 9526-, still sticking to this off-frequency, and instead of
taking a break 15-16 UT, still on the air at 1516 Feb 18 playing songs,
undermodulated, but signal over the het from EAST TURKISTAN 9525.0. Atsunori
Ishida monitored VOI on the air during this hour with Indonesian, several
recent dates in February (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** IRAN. VIRI Arabic service, 15545, Feb 18 at 1420 bothering WJHR 15550-USB,
q.v. With BFO on for that at 1434, tuned down to 15545 and noticed the Iranian
carrier from Sirjan is a bit unstable. 1530 (top of hour to them) played
distinctive news theme (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MOROCCO. Missing from 15341 and 15345 Feb 18 at various chex between 1440
and 1530; but no sign of HCJB Australia 15340, just not propagating here.
If this keeps up, should be a good day to hear RAE`s external service to Europe
on 15345v in English, Italian, French, German 18-22 without QRMorocco (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SAUDI ARABIA. BSKSA, 15435, Feb 18 from *1457 and no 20-minute delay today
in adding the modulation (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN [non?]. Very surprised to hear the REE IS, no doubt about it, at 1359
Feb 18 on 7220, followed by 4-pip timesignal; quite weak signal and soon lost
to QRhaM. In fact, I did not have a chance to pin down the frequency vs
parallax on the FRG-7 dial, so could have been 7215 or 7225. I`ll just look it
up later. Direct from Spain would be unlikely at this hour on 41m.
Guess what: no REE listed anywhere on any of those frequencies. May have been a
misfeed or a new frequency at a relay station. It so happens that REE Spanish
to Philippines is supposed to be on 11910 via Xi`an site, CHINA at 1200-1400.
And furthermore, Xi`an is listed on 7215 with CRI in Japanese at 1300-1357,
then nothing. So most likely Xi`an got their feeds mixed. Should look for it
other days in case it still happen (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TURKEY. 15480, something new here, Feb 18 at 1428 long conversation in
Turkish including M&W speakers, mentioning democracy, Alexander Pope. S9+18
signal but quite undermodulated with some hum. Still going past 1430 and 1454.
Finally at 1459 a bit of music, 4-pip timesignal only about a semisecond late,
but could not hear any `Burasi` ID, then presumably news. 1503 mentioned
Ankara, and music program.
Little doubt it`s TRT, confirmed by // 11815. Next check at 1531, 15480 was
off. This is `new` because TRT is scheduled on 15480 via ?akirlar only until
1400, 500 kW, 152 degrees, per HFCC, tho WRTH shows Emirler. So were they a
sesquihour late offturning it, or a deliberate schedule change? (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 15550-USB, WJHR on the air much earlier than usual with annoying
preacher one would never listen to for content, at 1420 Feb 18, but bothered by
Iran in Arabic 15545. By 1500, WJHR was much louder and Iran softer. But by
1530, WJHR had weakened a lot; in fact, I first thought it was off till I
fished with the BFO. Attributable to propagation or fiddling with the power
output, antenna? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. We finally know that YFR relay at 15-16 on 11985 is via
Rampisham, UK, but now Harold Camping has yet another new frequency during that
hour, 13790, at 1526 Feb 18, running 28 seconds behind 11985, so surely
elsewhence. 13790 had been registered as DTK Wertachtal, and probably still is.
Both of these had long/short path echoes, and one might have guessed from same
site were it not for the long offset between them. Like the BVBN preacher on
12035, Camping was referring to Romans X on an Open Forum question from a
listener, who apparently believes Camping is a biblical authority!
BTW, WYFR Okeechobee has just replaced 6915 with 6875 at 03-12, 355 degrees;
pirates take note (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Ciao,
thanks to Michele D'Amico I posted on my blog a post about how to change
the WFM filters in the old but always great Icom R7100 VHF-UHF receiver.
Just a simple guide with several photos. This will help you in FM DXing,
OIRT band DXing, TV audio channels DXing, FM studio links hunting and so
on.

Diego Garcia, 4319, AFRTS, 2330-2359 News and features
in English language.
Signal was good and solid signal. Listed on AOKI as
Diego, but sounds too good?
Looking at the DX Edge, Florida and Diego Garcia are
sharing the grey line at this time.
As I listen to the signal from Diego Garcia, I can
anticipate it will be fading in a few
minutes as Diego Garcia awakens to morning Sunlight.

Correct my last logging to read "almost sharing the

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
** CHINA [non]. 9690, CRI in Chinese at 0204 Feb 19, VG signal but noticeably
distorted, the usual situation with the Noblejas, Spain relay which has no
problem with modulating its own REE broadcasts; must be a feed input problem.
Past log had it extremely distorted, so must have been improved (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COSTA RICA. 3350, REE relay, another ailing transmitter, Feb 19 at 0211 with
S9+20 signal but very undermodulated with hum (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CUBA [non]. 9490, R. Rep?blica, still loud and clear on third night of new
frequency, UT Feb 19 at 0105. No jamming audible, but it was still grinding
away against nothing on ex-9810. 9490 also still much stronger than RCI 9755,
which doesn`t make sense if it`s also Sackville but on a southward antenna.
Maybe 9490 is on the 240 degree beam for some reason, which is right toward us
rather than Cuba. 0205 RR was talking about Arctic peoples and nims, seemingly
off-topic, but they do have a variety of general informational programming
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** DJIBOUTI [and non]. Looking for signs of RTD, 4780, a bit before nominal
*0300 but no luck Feb 19 before *0259 of WWCR 4775. Why? FCC told me Feb 16:
``We have received an interference complaint from a foreign government's fixed
operation concerning WWCR's 5070 operation. We are currently communicating with
that government agency concerning this; meanwhile, WWCR is operating on 4775
pending the outcome of this matter.`` --- so possibly the change is not
permanent (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EGYPT. 9915, at 0118 Feb 19, Spanish talk about the CIA, making me wonder at
first if it were something out of Cuba. Awful audio with distortion and only
modulating at spixe, of which Habana is certainly capable, but also a typical
Cairo problem.
0121 into music, and yes, with some strain decided it was // 6270 Cairo with
good modulation. I also tried 9390, something there but unseemed //. That must
be because the third frequency changed to 9360 sometime since B-09 began as in
DXLD 10-03 from DX Mix News:
0045-0200 on 9915 ABS 250 kW / 252 deg Spanish SoAm
0045-0200 on 6270 ABZ 250 kW / 315 deg Spanish NoAm
0045-0200 on 9360 ABZ 250 kW / 245 deg Spanish SoAm
Aoki still shows 9915, 9390 and 7540 for this Spanish. Boo, Abis! (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** HONDURAS. 3290, extremely distorted FMy broadcast signal, Feb 19 at 0210,
mixing music with talk which I eventually decided was Spanish. Slope detexion
did not help much. I forced myself to listen to this garbage for almost an hour
in hopes of something identifiable. At 0213 music with a heavy beat, more
Spanish talk.
What could this be? It`s obviously not a spur from a proper 90 mb frequency
such as REE/Costa Rica 3350, not //. BUT, Radio Misiones Internacional, 3340 is
missing. Not unusual, as they are quite sporadic, but it`s my prime suspect,
with #2 possibility being the other 90 mb Honduran, HRPC, Radio Luz y Vida,
which is also missing from its frequency 3250.
It was mostly a feminine voice doing the distorting. At 0220 heard dios
mentioned, and tentatively at 0226 Misiones Internacional[es]. Long talk-only
segment followed, presumably sermon until 0248 announcements and music. Could
not make out any ID even at hourtop 0300 as it went on. At times I was trying
to detect if English was inmixed, as we know this station sometimes does, but
just too distorted.
ASAP I asked dxldyg monitors to check it, especially anyone who has
NBFM-receive capability which might audiblize it better. Please keep an ear on
3290 in case it happen later in the night or subsequently.
3340 used to be known by calls HRMI, but WRTH 2010y shows HREZ, with merely the
slogan Radio MI. Unfortunately, no chance this is GUYANA, which is supposed to
be reactivating shortwave any time now with new transmitter and antennas (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ROMANIA. 9800 at 0133 UT Fri Feb 19, discussion in English about the EU,
some distortion; 0136 it`s the Network Europe program, as in http://euronet.eu
--- Confusing matters was recheck at 0156 when I found 9800 in Spanish with
English accent, but 0158 mentioned rcinet.ca and 0159 RCI IS and IDs, and more
Spanish from RCI.
Was RCI carrying Network Europe? Surely not, but then you would not expect RCI
to be carrying domestic programming for immigrants either. Trouble with Network
Europe is that being on multiple stations lacking individual IDs within, we
have no idea which station it really is, until consulting references, so soon
found that
RRI is on 9800 at 0100-0200 in English, 300 kW, 310 degrees from Galbeni, and
RCI is on 9800 at 0200-0300 in Spanish, 70 kW, 227 degrees from Sackville. But
apparently that starts several minutes early, and we know RRI normally finishes
at 3 minutes before the hour, so RCI wastes no time in taking over (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOUTH AFRICA. 3320, Feb 19 at 0211, fair signal with music; better at 0250
and clear, a blessed relief from the distortion on 3290, but did not stay with
it long, as I knew it must be Radio Sonder Grense.
3255 weaker than 3320, at 0258 in English, 0302 BBCWS news.
Both are 100 kW from Meyerton, BBC 3255 at 03-06 and 16-22, nondirexional? And
3320 at 18-05, 275 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN [and non]. See CHINA [non]; COSTA RICA
** SUDAN [non]. 5915, Feb 19 at 0313 a bit of English, quickly into Arabic
voice-over, good signal, and perhaps our best chance to hear the Affia
Darfur/Hello Darfur service of IBB, which at 0300-0330 is via VATICAN, of all
places, 250 kW at 146 degrees.
5915 remains an interesting frequency, with CVC Zambia using it in English at
0400-0500 only, and Zambia NBC from 0515, if its transmitter gets repaired
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9955, WRMI, UT Fri Feb 19 at 0110 with revived ``Eat Soccer`` show;
0124 English talk about Cuba, new 0115 time for CDHD Brigade 2506. So WORLD OF
RADIO shifted to 0130. Signal was fading and by then I could just barely hear
myself introducing #1500, but no jamming. WWCR still inbooming with PPP on 9980
causing some desensitization, no help. Meanwhile, on webcasts I confirmed that
ACB Radio was running new WOR 1500 at 0100, but Area 51 was not, despite still
being scheduled (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. 7595 at 0130 Feb 19 with VOA Yankee-Doodle jingle, fair in
Farsi talk, but heavy RTTY QRM from about 7597 requiring side-tuning. This in
absence of 7590 GB Lavwadlamerik which finishes at 0100 altho completely absent
from Aoki listing. Which however says the 0130 language is really Dari, the
Radio Ashna service to Afghanistan following an hour of Pashto, 334 degrees aus
Iranawila, SRI LANKA.
7415, R. Farda presumed the station with music causing a SAH under stronger
open carrier, no doubt WBCQ, Feb 19 at 0150. Earlier in the hour had noticed
Brother Scare via WBCQ, a not especially strong signal, and the co-channel
would certainly have been a bother if one really wanted to listen to him and
WBCQ were still modulating.
So here we have a USG service which deliberately co-channels a domestic US
shortwave station; via Lampertheim, GERMANY, 100 kW, 108 degrees at 0030-0230.
O, right, totally different target areas so could not possibly be any QRM back
in the USA! It`s bad enough that China runs many hours on 7415 without IBB
doing it too to `BCQ.
The WBCQ online program guide shows BS on 7415 at 0100-0400 weekdays, 0200-0400
UT Sat & Sun (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9975, no sign whatsoever of KVOH on this frequency at 0308 check Feb
19, despite having registered itself here season after season, currently in
B-09 per FCC at 01-08 and 13-15, 50 kW, 100 degrees like 17775 in between. I
challenge anyone to axually hear KVOH on 9975; otherwise delete all listings
for it on that frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WTWW on the air again, first time heard in February, 0313 Feb 19 with
S9+20 open carrier on 5755; next check at 0319, classic rock music test had
started and at least one of the old IDs mentioning a river bank. Computer noise
back on as I tried to keep monitoring, but either off or considerably weakening
by 0335. I expect they are about ready to start regular talk programming of
religion and/or politix (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 4050, KWMO Washington MO third harmonic can also be heard earlier
than my usual 06-07 UT logs: Feb 19 at 0219 M&W talking, probably an ad; 0304
music, so not much news if any on the hour. Quite weak and presumed as per
previous definite IDs, no other 1350s harmonicizing like this (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VATICAN [non]. 9660, Feb 19 at 0310, news of South Africa, Nigeria in
English, OM with accent I was trying to place, maybe Channel Africa? No, soon
IDed as ``the daily African service of Vatican Radio``, 0312 into a cultural
talk.
Good signal, and no wonder: it`s via MADAGASCAR, 335 degrees usward at
0300-0430, with more via there at 0430-0500 295 degrees, 0500-0530 more English
at 265 degrees. At 0530 site switches back to Santa Maria di Galeria for
another sesquihour, at 175, then from 0600, 200 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST) See also SUDAN [non] ###
