Guyana, 3290, Voice of Guyana, 0945-1000, At tune in

Peru, 4826.54, Radio Sicuani, 1001-1015, Signal just
starting to fade in with Spanish comments

Papua New Guinea, 5960, Radio Fly, 1030-1045, A very
difficult situation here. Noted a good carrier, but

RUSSIA [and non]. 9665, VOR English via Pridnestrovye, poor Aug 21 at 0205
with het, probably from off-frequency Brasilian rather than North Korean at
this hour. 7440 via Ukraine not any better. 15425 via DVR not propagating.
Meanwhile, VOR Spanish on 9735 is loud and clear, since this favored service
gets to use the Guiana French relay (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. Firedrake Aug 21:
8400, poor at 1250
None others heard up to 18 MHz before 1300 or after 1308, but search less
thorough than usual as I was concentrating on the 1580 Spanish unID (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA [non]. 13740, CRIEnglish via CUBA, Aug 21 at 1407 is interviewing Tavi
(sp?) from Radio 86 in Estonia about a singing festival there and Estonian
music in general. Radio 86 is their `partner` (front?) station in Nordic area
thru which CRI broadcasts via 963 kHz Pori, Finland, starting last year.
http://www.radio86.com/ (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PHILIPPINES. 7225, VOA Korean via Tinang, Aug 21 at 1245 was putting out
wide spurs from modulation spikes, covering approx. 7275-7295, 7155-7175, and
7095-7120, i.e. centered plus/minus 60 and 120 kHz; altho could not hear them
around 7345, perhaps masked by other signals in the area. This transmitter is
on the air 1200-1400, 250 kW, 21 degrees, same azimuth as a number of other
broadcasts carrying on well to NAm, such as 9760 English at 12/15; and //
Korean on 11935 at 13-15 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** WESTERN SAHARA [non]. 6297.1, SASASAM, already on the air when I tuned in,
0558 Aug 21, music mixed with talk; 0600 3-pip timesignal 38 seconds late,
anthem on tinny band, dead air, 0602 YL announcement and into OM chanting.
Wonder how much before 0558 they were on? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED [and non]. 1580, KOKB Blackwell OK, still in weekend open-carrier
mode Sat Aug 21 at 1240, facilitating monitoring of what else is on frequency
by suppressing noise level with no annoying modulation of its own. Several
stations in English mixing before 1300 UT.
1302 I hear the first traces of Spanish too, on the E-W 110-foot longwire. 1305
I switch to the longer NW/SE wire which picks up less local noise, and favors
KREL in CO, soon mentioning Longmont studios. But no more Spanish made out on
either antenna in next semihour.
At 1333 I try the DX-398 in the yard, and now I hear Spanish, OM interviewing
YL; this is best in the KOKB null, but I cannot get a definite DF on the SS
station. 1340 I am back on the E/W antenna as the Spanish host announces a
`pausa` followed by screaming ad or promo. Briefly better on the NW/SE antenna
but so is KREL with the Home (based) Business Radio Show, mention Radio
Colorado network. 1345 losing Spanish; 1348 back briefly; 1349+ no further
Spanish heard. Just before 1359 KREL ID but it`s losing out too, 1400 USA Radio
News. So much for the 1580 Spanish mystery this week. I hope someone else gets
something more definite (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

TAJIKISTAN 4765.05 Tajik R. (pres.) 0018 Subcontinental mx w/vcl by W
and M. Studio W anncr briefly at 0022 in lang., no doubt Tajik, then back
to mx w/haunting flutes and M vcl, more Middle-eastern sounding than
Subcontinental. Start of song w/more flutes at 0027 and tlk by same W
anncr. Mx w/W vcl and male chorus again, Subcont. in style at 0029 and
running over BoH. W returned at 0034, flute mx bridge, then more anmnts, and
then Subcont. Pop-like song not really fitting in the format. Gradually
fading towards 0100. Nice grayline reception this time of year here, and
peaking around 0025 w/around 75% readability. Surprised to find this. Will
have to wait until late November for the best opportunity to hear their EG
xmsns on 7245 at 1300 when its near grayline, and hope the Auroral zone
doesn't suck up the signal. (17 August)
INDIA 4800 AIR Hyderabad Noted IS clearly at 0020. IS also hrd same
time on 5010 Thiru. A decent Indian evening. (17 August)
NORTH KOREA 2850 Korean Central BS 1022-1030, usual state-approved vcl
mx. NA at BoH, then M anncr in KR. 3320 also coming in. 4450 AINDF/KCBS
strongest of the Koreans. However there was another stn mixing in equally
as strong playing soft vcl mx while KCBS had tlk by W at 1038. (21 August)
CLANDESTINE 6600 V. O. the People Cutting through the jamming at 1030,
//3912 which was best. (21 August)
CLANDESTINE 3985 and 6348 Echo of Hope Both jammed so much that I
couldn't tell if the freqs were //, at 1040. (21 August)
NORTH KOREA 11710 V.O. Korea Strong in EG at 1046, and on freq too.
(21 August)
NORTH KOREA 7200.01 V.O. Korea NA at 1048. Signal stayed on but there
was another signal underneath w/mx then M anncr at 1056 and signal off. (21
August)
Just want to mention that with the Koreans coming in better than usual this
morning, there's a perfect grayline at 1030 at this time of year. (21
August)
Best DX and 73!!
