Indonesia, 4750, RRI Makassar,(pres) 0935-0945, Noted a
signal here with a female
in comments. Can't actually hear it well enough to
identify the language, but it's
definitely a female talking. At 0941 some promo type
music as bridge then more
comments. Signal remains at a threshold level
throughout the period. Possibly
a later check will reveal a better signal? That's
called "wishful thinking", because
a recheck at 1023 showed that conditions had gotten
worse instead of better.
(Chuck Bolland, October 14, 2010)
Bolivia, 6134.78, Radio Santa Cruz, 0957-1005,
Conditions are very bad so far on
this band at this time, but I think that is only a
temporary condition. Probably in
a few minutes signals will improve. At present
however, can hear a male in
Spanish language comments as the noise smoothers the
signal. On the hour
music heard. Rechecked at 1022 and conditions were
worse, so my prediction
of better conditions never happened. (Chuck Bolland,

** ANTARCTICA. 15476, LRA36 carrier detectable Oct 14 at 1350, usually easy to
pin down by quick comparison to RA on 9475, WTWW permitting (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** AUSTRALIA [and non]. HCJB, Oct 14 at 1352, fair in Chinese on 15400; and
MOROCCO 15340.0 in Arabic had a subaudible heterodyne (SAH) no doubt from HCJB
in Hindi (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 6070, CFRX modulation finally seems back up to par, Oct 14 at 0630
with talkshow phone number 877-876-PHIL --- yes, now carrying the syndicated
Phil Hendrie Show, and I guess it`s live, at 10 pm - 1 am PT, i.e. 05-08 UT,
soon to be 06-09. However, signal soon faded. Next check at 1323, CFRX still
audible over daylit path (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake Oct 14: none found 8-18 MHz between 1330 and 1353 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA. 7350-, Oct 14 at 0622, best audio yet from R. Nigeria, Abuja, 0624
tentative ID in passing. Slightly on the low side compared to signals on MW
1350. Wolfgang B?schel explains the poor reception in Europe and North America:
altho both near Abuja, this is separate from the new VON 3 x 250 kW site at
Lugbe; Thomson also put in 2 x 100 kW for domestic service at the old site
Gwagwalarda, some 33 km westward, same as MW 909 kHz. Looking at Google map,
has dipole oriented 85/265 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 18057.9, Oct 14 at 1357, just barely audible (JBA) carrier, first time
detected in many weeks; by 1404 some modulation could be heard. No doubt it`s
R. Victoria, Lima, 3 x 6019.3 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 11715, KJES, Oct 14 at 1340, M with religious exhortations, then
harmonious singers with guitar accompaniment. Excellent signal like S9+30,
modulation only fair but sufficient at that level, some hum. Not a chance to
hear Pyongyang on 11710. My last log of KJES was Oct 5, so rather sure it had
been absent ever since in daily morning bandscans. I should report on this
every day like LRA36? Naah (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** WESTERN SAHARA [non]. SASASAM, Oct 14 at 0615, not on either 6297.1 nor
6248.3 --- but at next check 0628, 6297.1 was musical (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
