** ANTARCTICA. 15476, able to detect a carrier again here (not 15475), Monday
June 7 at 1316, amid a TVI blob from some neighbor`s set which messes up 14-16
MHz especially. Besides that problem, it seems the sweet spot for almost-daily
reception I had in April/May has moved westward to TV-less Asilomar Beach where
Ron Howard often has LRA36 around 1500 just before sign-off M-F which runs a
bit later (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. Not much sporadic E Sunday, until 0125 UT Monday June 7 when I found
weak analog on channel 2, peaking NNE, turned out to be a silly puck game. This
fits CBC as on CKPR, Thunder Bay, an oft-received station. Soon outfaded (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Another poor day for Firedrake, June 7:
8-16 MHz, none found at 1305-1310
16-19 MHz, none found at 1310-1314 tho CNR1 jammer audible on 11805, not on
15285, etc.
8400, `ramshorn` passage just barely audible with BFO at 1324
15140, very poor at 1414; scanned 10-15 MHz again now: nothing else
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** DOMINICAN REPUBLIC [and non]. 6025+, June 7 at 0625 as I was stepping 1 MHz
between 4025 and 5025 on the FRG-7, also found unexpected fair signal on 6025,
in Spanish; low-key W & M conversation about medical issues. This one is
slightly on the hi side compared to 5025, but also a rippling SAH from a weaker
signal slightly offset from it; with BFO on, it`s even more obvious there are
two senders.
0629 broke for canned PSAs/promos about the symptoms of autism, esp?ritu santo,
and gave several phone numbers starting with 707 or 787; also a US toll free
866-. 0631 resumed medical discussion; kept listening hoping for some clue as
to origin, but none heard so gave up at 0651. It helped to be within the weekly
Monday truce in the Cuban/American radio war on adjacent 6030 tho there were
still traces of jamming there.
I presume it was R. Amanecer Internacional, as the Seventh Day Adventists are
obsessed with health, and this station has been known to run overnight on
occasion, not usually. Then I check the program schedule at
http://www.ra.do/plunes.html and find for 2-3 am Monday: Cl?nica Abierta. That
makes the log definite.
BTW, the imaginary new US station KTMI in Oregon is registered for 6025 at this
very time, 0600-0800, 50 kW, 70 degrees.
What could the CCI really be? Aoki shows also on the 6025 air at this hour,
Enugu, Nigeria, maybe possible if active, a bit late for it, and really too
early for Vietnam or Malaysia. Maybe Bolivia sometimes runs all-night too?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** LIBERIA. 4025-, carrier slightly on the lo side detectable June 7 at 0615,
VP and bits of audio too presumably from Star Radio, but not enough signal and
modulation vs the storm noise level, this time from northern Kansas which hit
us 5 hours later (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SAUDI ARABIA [and non]. 15380, collision between BSKSA with Qur`an, and RHC
Spanish, June 7 at 1311, as they take turns dominating, still at 1330. BSKSA
HQS is 500 kW, 310 degrees USward at 12-14 despite Cuba at 11-24. Of course,
Riyadh was there first (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Altho it still appears on the June 1 WWCR online program schedule,
the 0330 UT Monday airing of WORLD OF RADIO on 5890 was missing again June 7,
some preacher other than PPP this time and not // WTWW 5755. So I have removed
it from my schedules, without having received any explicit info about its
replacement, and contradictory info from the pdf.
As for the missing Saturday 1330 WOR airing on WRMI 9955, it was heard at the
same time on Sunday instead by Harry Brooks in England on the webcast, and
again at usual 1515 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Altho still dated effective March 14, after DST had begun, and still
failing to display a 4-hour difference between ET and UT, the WINB program
schedule now shows some different times for disgraced sexual predating
evangelist ``Tony Alamo``, tried, convicted, sentenced and serving 175 years:
M-F 11 am, 2 and 3 pm (yes, one hour and another hour back-to-back), i.e.
15-16, 18-20 UT, as I was not hearing him earlier on 9265, June 7 at 1317 but
instead an apocalyptic acolyte of Brother Scare, soon back to the voice of the
Last Days Prophet of God himself (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WWCR 13845 and 15825 were both inbooming at 1312 June 7, so HF
sporadic E is in progress. How high can it go? CB also hopping with one of many
stations on 27 MHz band at 1335 claiming to be in Virginia. That doesn`t mean
10m hamband will be hopping as well, tho surely there is no sharp MUF cutoff at
28000. Not a single SSB signal to be heard there, just letting their beacons
run, one a K2 and another a WA4, both weak and fading in and out at 1340.
Before 1500 I onturned the TV but nothing yet reaching channel 2 in the
following sesquihour tho DX Sherlock showed sparse activity on 6m (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ##

CHINA/CANADA 7415 Thougth first it was a phantom. But RCI English service
1800-1859 KAS 9530, SKN 11765, SAC 17735, SKN 17810
noted in 1856 to 1900 UT slot June 7th on CRI Urumchi site outlet 7415 kHz,
S=9+20dB, with listener letter request and Montreal address at 1858 UT.
RCI interval signal til 1859 UT, into RCI French ID til 1900 UT, and
suddenly at 1900 UT switch into CRI Czech service announcement, scheduled on
7415 kHz regularly.
So, the 9530 Kashi satellite feed from Beijing was put on air via Urumchi
gear, or even the satellite feed used for CRI Czech service from 1900 UT?
CHINA 7280 Firedrake music noted on Tinian channel 7280 in 1700-1900 UT
slot, June 7th.
FRANCE/TAIWAN 6155 RTI English service via Issoudun powerhouse towards GB
& IRL, 1800-1900 UT, S=9+10dB - but I guess much stronger signal on the
isles, 1835 UT on June 7th. Enjoyed sweet Taiwanese music in 1835 to 1845 UT
slot, June 7th.
SLOVAK REP 7290 like a local supply noted strong English religious sce of
IRRS via Rimavska Sobota, S=9+25dB, En at 1848 UT, seldom heard so strong,
due of usual dead zone around SVK. Monday-Thursday 1800-1900 UT June 7th.
I guess European Gospel radio
