** CUBA. 12134, cut numbers Feb 17 at 1412 ruining AFN on 12133.5; strong
signal in CW, A1 with carrier cutting on and off, but there is also a tone when
the carrier is on, like A2. 5-character letter sequences as in coded spy
transmissions, preceded by header TDIIN repeated (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 13780, Feb 17 at 1417, RHC on Paraguay vs imperialism, with hum and
constant crosstalk from instrumental music underneath; format sounds like R.
Enciclopedia. No such problem on otherwise // 13680. At 1540 I notice that
11760 has the same crosstalk; while // 11690 and 12040 must be at the other
site, with degraded lo-fi audio an echo apart from the others, and no music
underneath during `Formalmente Informal`. I was hoping to get an ID from the
music, but both it and the RHC audio stopped simultaneously at 1559 as 13780
went into open carrier before closedown (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** DENMARK [and non]. 18128-USB, Feb 17 at 1453, OZ5ONE, Ben, is working North
American DX, but bothered by constant carrier on 18127, whence? Says he is
running 1.8 kW to 6-element beam from Lolland Island #029 in southern Denmark;
quite a jovial fellow, signs off with ``73 and 51``. 1457 working VA7DIN/mm,
Dennis [no, not spelt thus] off the Pacific coast of Nicaragua whom I could
also hear, and later a W6 I could not hear at all.
QRZ.com shows:
OZ5ONE, Bent Olsen, Gallevej 31, 4913 Horslunde, Denmark
VA7DIN, Dinis C.G. Matias, RICHMOND, BC V6X 1A7, Canada, but currently
cruising, in a 5-year circumnavigation of the world! See
http://www.vidanova35.blogspot.com/
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. 9526-, VOI English-fragment broadcast at 1500, Feb 17: good
signal but with hum, het, IADs, 1505 news; 1509 about protecting Indonesian
workers in Saudi Arabia; 1513 Commentary about problem with importing aircraft
parts for 24 F-16s, subject to embargoes. 1516 Today in History, an Islamic
expert, author, politician, born Feb 17, 1908, died July 24, 1981. As I broke
for breakfast, missed abrupt cutoff sometime between 1520 and 1530 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KUWAIT [and non]. 9750, R. Kuwait, Feb 17 at 1408 Qur`an making fast SAH
with Japanese from NHK, Yamata. Ministry of Information, Kabd is scheduled
11-16, 300 kW, 275 degrees. Apparently Kuwait is a theocracy, with the MOI
propagating the Qur`an.
21540, R. Kuwait in Arabic, Feb 17 at 1428 way over Spain with SAH, and also
much stronger than Spain 21570, making RK the SSOB along with Libya 21695. 1430
program closing with SFX of birds chirping and water running, a .com website,
YL ID and into OM (natch) Qur`an, beautiful singing I can enjoy without the
baggage of belief. By 1435 Spain [q.v.] was gaining ascendancy (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 18057.6, Feb 17 at 1445, carrier detectable here instead of usual
18057.9, so apparently R. Victoria fundamental is more like 6019.2 today
instead of 6019.3 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PHILIPPINES [non]. 15350, RVA via VATICAN, Feb 17 at 1547, VG S9+20 in
Taglish, hard-sell promos mentioning ``Two thousand eleven``, ``Proclamation
241(?)``, and ``no to contraception`` (as if Philippines isn`t overpopulated
already!); 1539 mentions ``Veritas``. Mostly with annoying self-imposed echo on
the audio. Meanwhile still nothing on 9570 during this hour when R. Blagovest
used to show (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN [and non]. 5965 via COSTA RICA, Feb 17 at 0733, news about Paraguay
from R. Vida FM; 0737 on to Radio Internacional de China. I wonder what other
stations participate in `Informativo en Cadena`, from REE, which per
http://www.rtve.es/radio/radio-exterior/programacion/
is scheduled at this time only, 0730-0800 M-F, when I am seldom monitoring. By
now, no Vatican QRM on VG signal. Propagation conditions were very depressed,
mostly signals from low latitudes on low bands.
Things were much better after sunrise on 13m; 21540 coming up from under
Kuwait, q.v., Feb 17 at 1435 during `Espa?oles en la Mar`, when I retuned to
clear 21610 with report on keeping down ferry fees for the 14-km Straits of
Gibraltar crossing to Ceuta & Melilla, where I gather lots of Europeans go to
shop. 21610 and // 21570 still in with fair signals at 1602 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9479, WTWW with bless?d dead air instead of Pastor Pete Peters, Feb
17 at 1406, 1504 and 1538 (but some hum). But he`s baack at next check 1641
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1552 monitoring: 9955, first SW airing Thursday Feb 17
on WRMI starting at 1601 after Romanian folk music fill and ID, as DentroCuban
pulse jamming has also started, not noticed during previous half-hour with
Wavescan. Tnx a lot, Arnie! The motivated listener could however still follow
most of what I was saying, meanwhile cursing the Cubans; also atop SAH from
Taiwan.
Next chances for WOR 1552 on WRMI 9955: Thu 2200, Fri 1530, Sat 0900, 1500,
1830, Sun 0900, 1630, 1830. On WBCQ 7415: Thu, Tue and Wed at 2000. On WWRB: UT
Fri 0430 on 5050 replacing 3185! On WWCR: Fri 2130 on 7465, Sat 1700 on 12160,
Sun 0730 on 3215. On IRRS: Sat 1900 on 6090, 1566, 1368 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
