Bolivia, 6134.80, Radio Santa Cruz, 1015-1030, Just a
weak signal with a male in steady
Spanish language comments. Conditions are poor this
morning on all bands here. At
1021 a female joins the male in comments. As noted,
the signal was weak and poor.
(Chuck Bolland, December 21, 2010)
Cuba, 6180, Radio Nacional de Venezuela, 1030-1045,
Noted a program of music and
Spanish comments with live ID's by a male. Signal was
good. (Chuck Bolland,
December 21, 2010)
Peru, 6019.287, Radio Victoria, 1045-1055, With
another very weak signal being covered
with a Het, noted a male (probably David M.) preaching
in the Spanish Language. At 1047
possibly music presented, but can't be sure? Signal
was threshold. (Chuck Bolland,
December 21, 2010)
Peru, 4824.453, La Voz de la Selva, 1100-1110, With a
threshold signal here, noted a male
in Spanish comments. (Chuck Bolland, December 21,

** BRAZIL. 11780, RNA, Dec 21 at 0626, already on the air earlier than usual,
guitar music, habitual morning DJ with reverb. SSOB by far, rivaled only by
WYFR 11530, 11580.
5990, Dec 21 at 0828, very strong with romantic Latin music, similar to RNA
11780 but not //. Presumably R. Senado, another 250 kW transmitter at Bras?lia.
WRTH still does not attempt to publish hours for any Brazilian SW stations, but
Aoki shows 0850-2100 for this ZYE773. Eibi shows 0750-2100, so go with that:
probably starts an hour earlier currently due to DST. These bigsigs are missing
from HFCC. Fortunately the other 49m frequency, 6185 for RNA, remains inactive
and clear for XEPPM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. Since I was up for the total lunar eclipse (yes, it was, and quite
dark), made a quick check of a few things Dec 21: at 0830 attempted to hear any
trace of HCJB which should have just signed on, under RHC 6050, but could not.
RHC Spanish // 6060, 6120, 6150, overkill in the nightmiddle. Arnie is sticking
to his guns on 6050 where HCJB is stuck with all those fixed-tuned Galcom
radios, Commies vs Christians!
Anomalies: RHC 13780 absent Dec 21 at 1450, supposed to be on until 1500 like
// 13680; CRI relay 13740 remained as usual. 11760 dead air Dec 21 at 1507 tho
11690, 11730 and 12040 were nominal. Modulation cut on 11760 at 1509 as El
Hugazo was manifesting himself guestfully on Voces de la Revoluci?n (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CYPRUS. 9388-9413 approx., Dec 21 at 1444, over-the-horizon radar pulsing
presumed from here in more or less free space, with WWRB 9385 not yet on, and
far enough from V. of Greece 9420 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. 6250, Dec 21 at 0620, S9+12 with YL in Spanish. We only
hear this sporadically and suspect it is only on the air sporadically.
Frequency matched Vatican on 7250, but if I had gone by comparing to MW 1250,
would have concluded RNGE on the lo side (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GREECE. 9420, VOG, Dec 21 at 1443, Greek talk and music, good signal, back
to normal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MAURITANIA. 7245, ORTM, Dec 21 at 0825, fair signal. Two hours earlier only
a weak carrier, suspected something else (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA. 9690, Dec 21 at 0823, strong but hummy signal in presumed Hausa
from VON as scheduled in WRTH 2011 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PHILIPPINES. 9430, Dec 21 at 1525, a cappella rendition in Chinese of Hark!
The Herald Angels Sing. We wonder how far the lyrix stray from the English in
order to make it work in Mandarin. Applause, announcement and then chorus with
``We Wish You a Merry Xmas!`` in English. This is FEBC`s extensive Chinese
service which also puts quite a good signal here into China [non]. Earlier
there was a lot of English talk being Chinesed (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** TINIAN. 9385, thanks to late switch by WWRB from 3185 to 9385 at 1508, I was
able to hear another weak signal on 9385 at 1506 Dec 21. First guess was
Burmese, but listed as Korean from R. Free Asia, starting at 1500, 250 kW, 329
degrees. HFCC also has R. Pakistan in Urdu until 1530 on 9385, but WRTH 2011
shows that on 7530 and 11575 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 3185, WWRB with Brother Scare on later than usual, Dec 21 still going
at 1439, 1457, and not on 9385. Finally switched at 1508. Meanwhile I got
something else on 9385; see TINIAN (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** WESTERN SAHARA [non]. 6297.1, SASASAM [? As we explained before, Arabic ID
is ``Huna el-estudiohaay al-markaziya al-wataniya, Sowt al-sha`ab a-Sahraui
al-mukafa``, as reconfirmed in WRTH 2011], Dec 21 at 0832, S9+18 Arabish talk
with utebeeps aside, still in plenty late on Solstice, no help from the lunar
eclipse which had me up at this time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ZAMBIA. Recently there has been some dispute whether 4965 CVC is on the air
all-night. I was hearing a weak signal there at 0035 and a stronger one with
gospel-sounding music at 0247 December 21. This is a separate service from
1Africa, 9430/13590/9505, also transmitted from Zambia, but not //. In WRTH
2011 you find the latter under South Africa, where the studio is (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
