I confirm Hasse Mattisson's observation of this morning (Saturday): no signal
today. I was there between 0300-0400 UTC.
I was studying my recording again: it really is a Peruvian station, most
probably from the eastern part of the country. I do not want to give up and ask
a Spanish native DXer for a help :-) so I will listen to the recording again
and perhaps will see (= hear). I was thinking about possible harmonics but have
found no station that would fit to the ID that I can perhaps hear on the
recording (if it is an ID).
So no Peru on 3360kHz but there was Radio Lipez (BOL) on 4796kHz this morning
with its regular Friday evening extended show. I can hear it every Saturday
morning here in the middle of Europe.

Subject: [RealDX] UNID (Peru?) on 3360kHz
This week I could hear almost daily an UNID LA station on 3360.01
kHz between 03-04 UTC. Probably from Peru, it plays Andean and LA
music with slogans between songs (male voice). The signal is very
weak (here in the middle of Europe). In slogans there appears
something like "Q" (Onda Q ?) very often. On June 9 the station
closed down at 0409 UTC, on June 10 it got extremely weak after 0335
UTC but I still had a feeling that it was there at 0410 UTC...

Subject: [HCDX] QSL report
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
Some recent QSLs:
Estonia - Tallinn Volmet, 4645 kHz, detailed QSL letter, 4 months. QTH:
Estonian Air Navigation Services, Lennujaama tee 2 / P.O.Box 9, 11101 Tallinn,
Estonia.
UAE [non] - Radio Free Asia via DHA, det. QSL card "15 years" with tx site
"Asia", in two days for report via web form.
Greece - Olympia Radio SVO, det. QSL certificate and letter with brief history
of the station. QTH: Scholiou 9-11, 153 42 Agia Paraskevi, Athens, Greece. 4
months.
Kuwait - Finally, after several attempts that resulted in nothing or calendars,
there came the shiny QSL certificate of Radio Kuwait, full details, in three
months for 5960 kHz. QSLing may be a silly habit but they really did put some
effort in this piece of cardboard, it was worth the years of waiting. QTH:
Engineering Affairs, Department of Frequency Management, P.O.Box 967, Safat
13010, Kuwait. E-mail given on the envelope as: kwt freq (at) media . gov . km
(spaces verbatim).
USA - Deutsche Welle Cypress Creek, heard in the target region on 7400 kHz,
detailed "20 years of Germany Unity" card in 9 days for email report. Alas, my
comments on how useful DW shortwave is for German scientists during expeditions
in far-flung places of the globe could not prevent the recent press release
about their closure plans.
Stations heard in Barbados, reports mailed from there:
Antigua - Caribbean Radio Lighthouse, PO Box 1057, St. John's, Antigua;
detailed QSL letter for 1160 kHz, info material and tx site postcard in approx.
one month. Rp 1USD.
Puerto Rico - The Rock Radio Network, n/d very friendly letter, stickers,
schedule and bible lesson, in 1 month for U.S. SASE (which was replaced by a
larger one with many nice stamps). QTH: PO Box 367000, San Juan, PR 00936-7000,
Puerto Rico. Heard via WIVV 1370.
Austria - Adventist World Radio Moosbrunn, a friendly letter, detailed QSL
card, calendars, sticker, in 1-3 weeks (so vague because I was out of town + no
postmark) for report to AWR, 1 Milbanke Court, Milbanke Way, Bracknell RG12
1RP, England.
Also a few very nice ham QSLs from exotic places, mostly heard during the ARRL
contest:
TJ3AY (Cameroon)
V26M (Antigua)
S9DX (Rolas Isl. / Sao Tom?)
P49Y (Aruba)
CU5CQ (Sao Jorge / Acores)

QTH: Pattaya, Thailand
RX: WinRadio G303e
ANT: 20m longwire
6165, TCHAD, 11 June, 1810 UTC, RN Tchadienne, with shouted
announcements in French by male announcer into a five minute drum solo.
Station ID by a woman at 1815, then into talk show with a man in both
French and some Arabic. Seemed to have some vernacular programming
mixed in, although I will admit that my French is execrable. Very good
signal level with some fluttery fades.
9559.79, ETHIOPIA, 11 June, 1713 UTC, Radio Ethiopia external service in
French with lots of African drum music and male vocals and occasional
French announcements. Good signals with slight fade. Apparently
slightly off frequency.
9835, MALAYSIA, 11 June 2011, 1642 UTC, RM Sarawak FM, heard with
call-in show into time pips and full ID in Bahasa Malaysia as news on
the hour. Fair signals and regular fades, so presume I'm catching the
fringe of the signal as it skips over me. Pretty much alone on the freq.
My Afghanistan contract is finally finished after three years (!) and I
am taking a few well-deserved months off. I have had no time for DX'ing
since shortly after New Year, and only have the job to blame for that.
Pattaya is normally an extremely noisy environment, but I managed to
score an apartment on the 11th floor of the View Talay VI building in
Central Pattaya. The noise level is quite tolerable, even if my antenna
is of somewhat limited length.
Mediumwave is suffering a lot of noise, so until I resolve that issue,
there won't be any DX on there!
I am eyeballing a tall tree in the adjacent vacant lot as an anchor
point for a longer antenna, but don't want any kind of trouble, so I
think I'll make a few discrete inquiries first! ;-)
Hope everyone is well.

The Shortwave Report 06/10/11 Listen Globally!
by Dan Roberts ( outfarpress(at)saber.net )
Thursday Jun 9th, 2011 5:34 PM
A weekly 30 minute review of international news and opinion, recorded from
a shortwave
radio and the internet. With times, frequencies, and websites for listening at
home. 3 files-
HIGHEST QUALITY BROADCAST, regular broadcast, and slow-modem streaming. Free to
rebroadcast. Japan, Spain, China, Cuba, and Germany.
Dear Radio Friend,
The latest Shortwave Report (June 10) is up at the website (NOTE THE URL
ADDRESS
HAS CHANGED SLIGHTLY DUE TO SERVER SWITCH)
http://www.outfarpress.com/shortwave.shtml in 3 forms- (new) HIGHEST QUALITY
(128kb)(27MB), broadcast quality (16MB), and quickdownload or streaming form
(6MB)
(28:59) Links at page bottom
(If you have access to Audioport there is a highest quality version posted up
there {27MB}
http://www.audioport.org/index.php?op=producer-info&uid=904&nav=&;;)
This week's show features stories from NHK Japan, Spanish National Radio, China
Radio
International, Radio Havana Cuba, and Radio Deutsche-Welle.
>From JAPAN- It has been revealed that three of the reactors in Fukushima
>experienced
meltdowns within a few days of the tsunami. Highly contaminated water continues
to
accumulate at the site. Soil samples show strontium and cesium more than 60 km
away from
the reactors. The IAEA is asking Japan to provide a more transparent report on
the nuclear
crisis.
>From SPAIN- The European Commission has proposed a large aid package to help
>farmers
hurt by the E. Coli outbreak in Germany. The new President of Peru, Ollanta
Humala, has
vowed that the poor will share in the countrys wealth. Portugal's Socialist
party lost elections
over the weekend. Demonstrations continue in Spain by "The Outraged Ones."
>From CHINA- The Chinese government wants the NATO countries to actively
>consider the
African Union's roadmap for peace in Libya. A report on the protests against
Israel on the
Syrian border that left more than 20 dead.
>From CUBA- Thousands of Israelis protested in Tel aviv against Netanyahu's
>policies.
Dozens of medical workers in Bahrain were charged with crimes for treating
anti-government
protestors. The Crown Prince of Bahrain was quietly visiting President Obama
this week.
Obama will be met by protests when he visits Puerto Rico next week. Defense
Secretary
Gates suggested extending US troops in Afghanistan beyond 2014. US drone
strikes
continue in Pakistan, with at least 33 killed this week.
>From GERMANY- German operators of off-shore wind farms look forward to the
>German
shutdown of nuclear power plants. The Global Commission on Drug Policy released
a report
has called the War on Drugs a failure and suggested a new approach. Occupants
of the
International Space Station are not to eat the vegetables they grow.
There is an article about the Shortwave Report by Cassandra Roos on line -
http://www.campusprogress.org/soundvision/780/big-stories-shortwaves
I was interviewed for an informative weekly radio show Mediageek, available at
http://radio.mediageek.net
All that plus times and frequencies for listening at home. It's free to
rebroadcast, please notify
me if you're airing it and haven't notified me in the last month, please
mention the website if
you only air a portion. If you just want to listen and have a slow connection,
try the streaming
version- lower sound quality but good enough and way easier if you don't have a
high-speed
internet connection. If streaming is a problem because of your slow connection,
download the
smaller file- it takes 20 minutes or less, and will play swell in any mp3
player application
(RealPlayer, Winamp, Quicktime, iTunes, etc) you have on your computer.
This program will be aired on Friday evening at 6:30pm (PDST) on KZYX/Z Philo
CA, you
might be able to stream via < http://www.kzyx.org >
There are several other streams that work better- < http://www.freakradio.org
>Freak Radio
Santa Cruz now streams this program on Friday at 9:00am.(PDST)
NEWLY CORRECTED!!! The Shortwave Report may be downloaded as a podcast from <
feed://radio.indymedia.org/en/podcast?keys=shortwave++
I hope you'll listen and air this if you're connected with a radio station. I
am still wondering
how to get financially compensated for the 25 hours I put into this program
weekly- any ideas
are appreciated. Any stations rebroadcasting this (or listeners) are welcome to
donate for
production costs. You can do so through the website. Many thanks to those that
have
donated! No Guilt! (maybe a little)
