** ALASKA. 7355, the only English hour from crippled KNLS, poor May 24 at 1238
with gospel rock; 1241 American Highway feature about the National Religious
Broadcasters convention (KNLS is after all, Nashville`s *other* SW station),
interviewing Rev. Mike Huckabee of Fox (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ANTARCTICA. I continue to fear LRA36 has gone silent again; can anyone
confirm still hearing it? Once again on Monday May 24, 15476 without even a
carrier at 1225, 1338 tho the 15480 stations were detectable (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake May 24:
8400, fair at 1334 // 13320 and 10440; not heard at earlier check
9360, fair at 1253, gone at 1257
10420, just barely audible at 1255
10440, fair-good at 1331, 1421, fair at 1422
11410, JBA at 1256
12980, good at 1256, not // 10420; 1300 to open carrier, 1305 resuming, gone at
next check 1327
13300, VG at 1259, // 12980 but not the others; 1300 OC, 1305 resuming, gone at
next check 1327
13320, VG at 1328, moved from 13300? G-VG at 1423
More jamming: 15330, May 24 at 1303, noise/buzz plus CNR1 audio // 15285 and
15265. This is contra BBC Uzbek via Thailand at 1300-1330, and all gone after
1330 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also EAST TURKISTAN
** COSTA RICA. 15170, REE relay, again overmodulated and splattering spikes
roughly between 15000 and 15300, May 24 at 1228; but at 1304 they must have
tweaked something as the spikes were gone, also at 1325.
This may well be the new DRM/AM transmitter, now scheduled with DRM only at
00-02 on 9625-9630-9635, and confirmed by Rafael Rodr?guez, Colombia (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EAST TURKISTAN [and non]. Several CRI morning language services to Europe
audible on 16m at para-solstitial nightmiddle, May 24 at 0605-0611; figured
they would all be transpolar via Kashgar, and Aoki confirms that:
17865, at 0605 French ID, contact info, intro economic news with Pink Floyd,
308 degrees
17720, at 0611 in German, 308 degrees
17680, at 0607, Spanish news by YL, 294 degrees
17650, at 0608 in Chinese, 308 degrees
17540, at 0610, English discussion of China/US relations, 173 degrees
17515, at 0609, Italian news, strange accent, 298 degrees
17485, at 0609, too weak to tell but listed as Arabic, 269 degrees
R. Free Asia via NMI in Mandarin was also in on 17880 and 17615, and did not
notice any jamming, strangely enough. 21 MHz not making it this time (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 6045, XEXQ-OC, SLP, still missing for the third morning in a row,
not even a carrier May 24 at 1230. Juli?n Santiago D?ez de Bonilla in the DF
agrees it`s off and is trying to find out why (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** SPAIN. Another error in the WRTH A-10 update: Emisi?n Sefarad from REE,
Monday 1425-1455 on ``15325``. That`s what comes from believing station info
rather than real monitoring, as I have reported again and again, it`s on 15385,
reconfirmed May 24 at *1425 after IS, fanfare opening, and at the moment
correctly announcing 15385 while she too used to believe 15325 was right.
Still claims to be on 11795 for the S American repeat at 0115 UT Tuesdays, yet
to be confirmed by anyone`s monitoring whether there or buried by Brasil on
11780; and 0415 Tuesdays to North America on 9650, as we confirmed already

Good day to all. It is always a very happy sensation when the phone rings and
at the other side, is someone who got you phone somehow and is calling to say,
"I am interested in Short Wave Would you help me" ? That is what? occurred to
me today. A man placed me a call very much interested in Short Wave. I maybe 30
minutes I gave him a crash course on the topic and promised to call him back
again.
One of the questions he asked is, related to the SWL License (I have one of
those) A nice thing to have and hang at the shack ( we all love that)
The point is that I can remember how I got this license. Can anyone help me on
this so I can pass this info to this gentleman please?

Luigi,
There is no such thing as a ``SWL License``. Fortunately, no license is
required to listen! At least not outside the most repressive communist regimes,
mostly of the past.
There was once a fad which I hope has passed for SWLs to obtain a `call sign`
like licensed radio amateurs must have in order to transmit, which for them is
logical.
Several individuals and companies saw a money-making opportunity and starting
issuing such made-up alfa-numeric SWL callsigns for a price; which have no
legal standing whatsoever.
If your caller really feels his own name is insufficient for him to be known
by, tell him to make up any combination of random letters and numbers and put
them after or instead of his name, even have them printed on a framable
certificate, if that makes him feel good. Google them first to see if they
already mean or lead to something or someone else. Probably should not be
something already used as a password.

Wolfy,
Are you referring to the traditional music-only jammers, or are some of these
CNR1 network audio jammers, which are not music-only? I don`t hear much of
either during that time period, but it`s unusual for Firedrake to be on some of
those inband frequencies when I do hear jamming, e.g. 11785, around 1300 always
with CNR1.

Hi Luigi,
To get a free SWL call sign, go to :
http://members.shaw.ca/swarl/sld006.htm
You will also get a free certificate in pdf format thru email.
It has no legal standing but will help you to register with qrz.com &
eqsl.cc if you are interested in listening on amateur bands & chasing for
qsl's.
