Hi,
there's two UNID stations on 19m right now, 9 Jan 2011, 1515 UTC: One strong
station, with Chinese chat, on 15145 kHz (not // CRI 9705), and one weak
station, with some Asian language, religious?, on approx. 15209.35 kHz,
apparently fading out, first heard at 1455 UTC, the sermon or whatever it is
was not interrupted for the top of the hour. Doesn't sound like WYFR
Portuguese/Spanish to me, that might be the carrier on 15210.0.
73,

** CUBA. 11760, RHC finally resumes Esperanto, Sunday Jan 9 at 1501 check,
after missing for several weeks, continuing in Spanish instead (tho last week
it was on 6050 and 6150 before and after 0700 UT Sunday). Distinctive theme
music, then giving schedule of Sunday 1500 to N/C/SAm on 11760; Sun 0700 on
6010 [NOT!]; and new time of Sunday [missed, but skeds show 2230, as yet
unconfirmed] on 15370. Also claims to have new webpage via
http://www.radiohc.cu and http://www.ameriko.org
The latter linx to obviously outdated sked:
http://www.ameriko.org/eo/node/75
And the former linx to a slightly different obviously outdated sked:
http://www.radiohc.cu/esperanto/c_frecuencia/frecuencias.htm
When will RHC and the Esperantists ever get their acts together with the most
basic of info? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also VENEZUELA [non]
** MEXICO [and non]. 1300, XEP, Ciudad Ju?rez, Chihuahua, Jan 9 at 1451 UT,
romantic music in Spanish, 1452 TC for 7:52, government vivienda PSA asserting
that ``en M?xico somos 102 millones de habitantes``, ID ``Radio Trece,
tradicionalmente original``, more romx. 50 kW station easily dominating
frequency this late, but lower half of MW band had no Mexicans or other skywave
to speak of. 1330 from west Texas was also still in, but not 770 from NM; see U
S A (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 1520, KOKC, Sunday Jan 9 at 1447, ad for OCI, and back to ``The
Native American Speaks``, host Michael Dotson interviewing someone from the
Citizen Potawatomi tribe. TNAS is scheduled at 1430-1500 UT, among other
worthwhile specialty programs on Saturday and Sunday mornings, departing from
weekday talk format primarily of farrightwingnuts:

(Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 13810, Jan 9 at 1411, Brother Scare is still here via
GERMANY, // weaker new 17580, but not precisely synchronized, a reverb apart.
If 13810 is Nauen, 17580 may be Wertachtal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** SUDAN [non]. Referendum day Jan 9: SRS 17745 via Portugal had some English
clips at 1613+, but voiced over in Arabic. From 1629 it seems to be fully in
English, starting with contact info, US AID sponsorship. Thanks to Ron Howard
for finding the correct English segment time 1630 on Sat; WRTH listed as 1730
on other frequencies as I mentioned on WOR 1546. Should be equally interesting
subsequent days with results of referendum, aftermath.
At first, reception here is OK, holding own against El Hugazo via CUBA on
17750, in use Sundays only. Recorded SRS for later attentive playback. O o, at
*1642, VOA GB carrier on 17740 squeezes it tightly prior to 1700 Portuguese.
1644 tone test briefly, but mostly OC from IBB. SRS seems off by 1657, maybe a
bit earlier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Confirming why we are no longer hearing WPJK on 3160: ``The harmonic
has been taken care of. Myself and FCC Atlanta intervened. Sorry it`s a
disappointment, I know. But, legalities are legalities (Gary E. Davis, W1IT,
Inman, SC, UT Jan 9, DX LISTENING DIGEST)``
** U S A. 9330-CUSB, WBCQ with Good Friends Radio Network, YL preacher, music,
S9+18 at 0550 Jan 9, seven seconds behind // WINB 9405 which had better S9+20
signal. Unknown how long WBCQ stayed on, but I don`t recall hearing it after
0600 before (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9394, big dirty distorted carrier-less spur from WTJC 9370v, matching
modulation there, Jan 9 at 1406. 9370v itself more distorted than usual and
undermodulated. Also same circa 9346, = 24 kHz on the other side, but weaker.
The spurs also had a rapid pulsing. WWRB 9385 not on yet; 9394 spur still
audible at 1420 when WWRB had come on (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1330, Jan 9 as I tune in at 1441 UT, ``At KCKM, we`re proud of our
large music library``, into Johnny Cash. Loops ENE/WSW over nearest groundwave
station KNSS (ex-KFH) Wichita KS. 1450 ad for a doctor in Monahans TX with a
943- phone number.
XEP 1300 in Ju?rez was also in [see MEXICO], but skywave gone from lower half
of band by now. For example, checked 770 for KKOB Albuquerque NM at 1500, but
no signal; presumably would have clicked on at 1415 UT, the January official
sunrise time for non-direxional operation lasting until 2415 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1600, Jan 9 at 1445 UT, strong open carrier looping NNW/SSE,
presumably KRVA in The Metroplex TX, the Vietnamese station often heard here as
long as skywave is in. Is no one paying attention at KRVA? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA [non]. El Hugazo is finally back on the air with another episode
of ``Al?, Presidente`` after missing several weeks. Sunday Jan 9 at 1610,
13750, 17750 and 15370, in decreasing order of strength, are separate from
mainstream RHC on 11760, 11690, 13680 --- tho the latter two are supposed to be
carrying A,P too (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1070, Sunday Jan 9 at 1438 UT I can get a nice sharp null from
groundwave KLIO Wichita, which instead of oldies has a preacher on, and in that
null I am hearing a country hymn. Surely not KNX, which ordinarily occupies
this spot earlier. Looks like WDIA Memphis is most likely from distance and
direxion, 50 kW daytime, but both day and night patterns have major lobes to
the south, little toward OK. NRC AM Log says its format is UC:AC =
urban/American contemporary. But like KLIO, prime format goes out the window
when gospel huxters ramp up on Sundays. Slightly unnulled, the two make a SAH
of 3.5 Hz; we have already determined that KLIO is sub-audibly off-frequency
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
