GIGO. Altho the appearance is a bit more modern, don`t you believe the
frequency schedule which includes outdated times/frequencies, introduces new
errors such as ``11560`` instead of 17560 to Europe; English at wrong times 20
and 00 instead of 19 and 23, etc., etc. And where`s the link to it and to the
Spanish program schedule? Under ``de interes``. Also note no direct linx to
English or other language pages. What an improvement! O, there it is -- upper
right. Now we have to click on the Union Jack to get to English. What`s that
got to do with RHC`s primary English audience, in North America?

UNID LA - 6035.02, Weak unid LA noted several mornings this week from 1006
earliest tune-in 4/29. Also 4/27 and 4/30 but no signal Sun morning 5/1.
Programming during 1000 hour is consistently some kind of rlg service, possibly
a group recitation of the rosary led by priest and assistant (YL). Deep-voiced
OM in what I think is SS (but unsure since so weak) as in prayer, YL sometimes
interjecting, and then group regularly responds in prayerful chorus. Seems to
fade up a wee bit toward bottom of the hour but then disappears altogether
underneath QRM splatter from both sides, which seems to crescendo daily at
1030,
killing this signal). Very poor QSA at best and continuously pounded by
splatter from both sides. Only able to hear after 1030 on 4/30, when a quick
anmt by a different speaker (possibly a live ID) at 1030, and then into a new
pgm of mellow, generic LA guitar baladas / canciones. Very intrigued by this.
One possible candidate is HJ station LV Guaviare, but that's not scheduled till
*1100 from some older info . . . so could be something else, much more
interesting. Anybody help? (R Perry, Illinois)
PERU - 6019.18, Radio Victoria, Lima, morning nx show at 1032 with OM SS
giving items. Only copyable in EC LSB and notched, huge het from 6020. Fair
signal. (R Perry, Illinois)
SOLOMON ISLANDS - 5019.88, Honiara with a fair signal at 1045 on 4/30. (R
Perry, Illinois)

** CANADA [and non]. 6070, no sign of a carrier from CFRX, May 1 at 0521, a
time when it is normally audible. Altho propagation was degraded on higher
frequencies, 49m was working from Spain on 6055, Sackville on 6080, etc.
Abnormally, the highest frequency with any signal at all was 13630, very poor
Australia. So has CFRX crashed again? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake May 1:
7970, JBA at 1253, none higher found before 1300; propagation degraded.
K-index 4 at 1500
10965, poor at 1335
12600, poor at 1335
13130, fair with flutter at 1334
13920, fair at 1358
14700, fair with flutter at 1332; still at 1418
15780, fair at 1418 and not fluttery, // 14700. 15780 a new frequency, so vs
what? Nothing in Aoki here and now, but on 15775, SOH at 1430-1500 via
TAJIKISTAN, close enough? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 11845, May 1 at 0515, DentroCuban pulse jamming against nothing, a
frequency R. Mart? uses only in the daytime.
13880, 13780 and 13680, May 1 at 1335-1349, RHC `En Contacto` celebrates 50th
anniversary of RHC; after two birthday greetings to listeners, including
Nicol?s ?ramo, Argentina, somewhere in his forties, rest of show consisted of
prompted congratulations from some other broadcasters and listeners in their
own voices, including:
Dr. ?dgar Am?lcar Madrid, R. Verdad, Guatemala
Antonio Buitrago, R. Exterior de Espa?a, `Amigos de la Onda Corta`
Jeff White, on behalf of NASB! How generous from a jammee, WRMI
Someone from AIR, Italy
A listener in Costa Rica
Pedro Sedano, Asociaci?n DX Barcelona
Manuel Castro ---
Valentina --- of La Voz de Rusia
Sergio Acosta, `Cartas@RN`, Radio Nederland
David ---, Argentina
Rub?n Guillermo Margenet, Argentina
Paco Rubio of Asociaci?n DX Barcelona
Most of these were pro-forma and non-political, but RGM quoted Fidel about
``the truth carrying far``. I was listening on 13780, but include 13880, the
leapfrog mixing product of 13680 over 13780, which was clearly audible to S9+8
at 1358 check, and is not formally reported as often as it should be.
Also reconfirmed Esperanto on 11760 at 1502. See also VENEZUELA [non]
RHC`s website http://www.radiohc.cu/ has changed, but GIGO. Altho the
appearance is a bit more modern, don`t you believe the frequency schedule which
includes outdated times/frequencies, introduces new errors such as ``11560``
instead of 17560 to Europe; English at wrong times 20 and 00 instead of 19 and
23, etc., etc. And where`s the link to it and to the Spanish program schedule?
Under ``de inter?s``. Also note no linx to English or other language pages.
What an improvement! O, there they are -- upper right of homepage. Now we have
to click on the Union Jack to get to English. What`s that got to do with RHC`s
primary English audience, in North America? Another anti-American insult (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ECUADOR [non]. I wanted to monitor this week`s `DX Partyline`, where Allen
Graham announces he is terminating at the end of May the long-running show he
inherited. WRMI had it scheduled at 0415 UT Sundays on 9955, webcast, but not
any more. See latest April 22 schedule grid via
http://www.wrmi.net/pb/wp_d12a1732/wp_d12a1732.html
showing its`s replaced by `Radio L?der Brasil` at 04-05 Sundays.
Plenty of remaining DXPL times, a dozen: Sun 0030, 1430, 2330; Mon 0330, 0500,
1115, 1545; Wed 1430; Thu 0515; Sat 1000, 1500, 2015 (Glenn Hauser, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** GABON [and non]. Press reports that Africa Number One has ``lost its
signal`` were circulating April 29-30 and were published without question. See:
http://www.afriquejet.com/news/africa-news/gabon-based-pan-african-radio-loses-signal-2011042910317.html
http://blogs.rnw.nl/medianetwork/africa-no-1-silenced-by-eutelsat-over-unpaid-debts
http://kimelli.nfshost.com/index.php?id=11185
The trouble is, it has not! Upon my request, several DX Listening Digest
monitors axually tuned to 9580 and were still hearing it, and so did I:
9580, May 1 at 0507, music in French reminding me of ``Lion King``, not to be
confused with talk in Arabic from a similar station on 9575, M?di 1 from
Morocco. Initially poor signal improved somewhat during following hour. 0510
song with English lyrix. 0511 YL announcement in French, OM promo for a program
after 17 hours. 0524 mostly music. 0532 ID for Africa Num?ro Un, more music.
0559 suffering from some intermittent audio dropouts, which worsened, but
between them, first caught mention of FM 94.5. No news on the hour, mixed with
open carrier. 0605 long list of FM frequencies in different African cities,
Africa No. Un mentioned multiple times. Sounds rather normal to me, altho as
recently as April 23 I was hearing news during the previous semihour, and
questioned how objective it could be since Libya is part-owner of ANO. The
press reports confirm that Libya is majority owner, and failure to pay up has
disrupted it satellite connexions, at least
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GERMANY [non]. Correxion, re the music DW played on 15640 after `Quadriga`
in previous report: ``I had parked my dial on that frequency just to enjoy the
tunes and "Tarty", I believe, was actually "Dancing in September" originally
done by Earth Wind and Fire. In the bridge there's a series of nonsense
syllables at the beginning of the lines which do sound like "tarty" or "party"
but official lyrics put them down as "ba-de-ya". For the longest time I thought
it was "party" myself. Just sayin'. Clara Listensprechen`` (Glenn Hauser, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. 9526-, May 1 at 1251 during Japanese hour, VOI has announcement
in English with contact info. Sounded like `live` YL rather than one of their
canned promos. 1308 check, same YL during real English hour. Poor with flutter;
lately VOI modulation has been `thin`, not commensurate with signal strength
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 11715-, Sunday May 1 at 1356, KJES catechisms in English by OM,
repeated by YL zombie, one each. Modulation sufficient for a change, but
slightly distorted on peaks, VG strength. This one is often inaudible, not even
a carrier, so presumably irregular (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non?]. 17545, VOA good with talk instead of `Music Mix`, maybe
because it`s Sunday, May 1 at 1423 with Hollywood reporter Allan Silverman on
``Jumping the Broom`` new movie. HFCC still lists this as 100 kW, 124 degrees
from S?o Tom?, but I still suspect site has switched to Greenville. Higher
bands were quite degraded, with only comparable signals on 16m being 17680
Chile and 17690 Guiana French (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA [non]. For the third week in a row, no `Al?, Presidente` on May 1.
At 1417, RHC has turned off 13680 early, as it does on Sundays only because the
transmitter is needed later on 13750 for A,P, but there is no carrier on 13750,
17750 or 15370, other A,P channels. El Hugazo`s excuse this week is that his
`space is being ceded` to Labor Day celebrations. Next Sunday I suppose it will
be because of Mothers` Day. See http://www.alopresidente.gob.ve/ (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
