** CHINA. Firedrake August 23, before 1300:
10300, good with flutter at 1242
13970, very good at 1248
16500, poor at 1248
After 1300:
15430, very poor at 1310
15290, good at 1314
13920, good at 1318
12600, good at 1319
10300, good at 1320
Before 1400:
16980, JBA flutter at 1357
16100, JBA at 1357, more so than 16980
15525, fair at 1339
15280, very poor at 1357
13970, fair at 1357
13920, very poor at 1357
12600, good at 1359
12025, poor at 1359; no CNR1 mixing at this time
10300, fair at 1359-1400*, and no sign of Sound of Hope afterwards
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [non]. 15600, I was surprised to see listed as an RHC frequency audible
in Venezuela at 12-13 and 14-15 UT, according to
http://sintoniadx.wordpress.com/2011/08/01/emisoras-que-emiten-en-espanol-en-la-onda-corta/
Obviously that would really be a leapfrog mixing product of 15120 over 15360
another 240 kHz higher; trouble is, 15120 goes off circa 1400, so the LF would
too. What about the 13-14 hour when it`s not listed? Monitoring Aug 23 at 1312,
15600 is occupied by Indonesian? Also RTTY QRM on the hi side. 1325, CRI with
English-worded ID, theme, website and off 1327*, no RHC audible. Aoki shows
Malay via Kunming at 1230-1327. Elsewhen, there should be nothing to block the
RHC spur, so try 15600 before 1230 or after 1327; altho by now they had built
up to VG, fundamentals still not strong enough here to audiblize the mixture
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GERMANY [non]. 15595, after CUBA [non] closed 15600 at 1327*, noticed
intermittent Russian tones on 15595; 1330 DW sounder instead of VOR, VP signal.
Listed in HFCC as 250 kW, 110 degrees from ``Armavir`` at 1330-1500; Aoki calls
same site ``Krasnodar`` in Dari, then Pashto and Urdu (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUIANA FRENCH. 9735, VOR Spanish relay, as usual super-strong, Aug 23 at
0450, accompanied by warbly spurs circa 9728 vs TUNISIA 9725, and 9742. Also
weaker spurs with // audio on 9720 and 9750 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** MOROCCO [and non]. 15345+, Aug 22 was monitoring IMM from 2159 to note when
it would go off, liberating ARGENTINA 15344+ from its het: not until 2204:54*.
Then RAE was too weak to copy and seemed to still have a lite het from
something else (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SUDAN [and non]. 13620, Aug 22 at 0443, R. Dabanga, via MADAGASCAR, ID in
passing, and today the continuous 1000 Hz tone jammer is worse than usual. //
13730 was in the clear (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TURKEY. 17770, Aug 23 at 1402, very poor signal sounds like Qur`an, 1406
Arabic talk. Surely not Qur`an, as uplooked later, this is V. of Turkey`s
Arabic at 14-15, 500 kW, 252 degrees from Emirler.
15450, Aug 23 at 1324 after pop Turkish music fill, VOT English service with
quick headlines, YL sign-off still claiming to be at 1330-1430 on 15520, 15450!
Thanks to Kent D. Murphy, WV for forwarding the 103rd edition of V. of Turkey
schedule folder, for July-December 2011, showing identical program lineup for
the ``3rd Term`` and ``4th Term``, still a holdover of previous years when
there some changes each quarter:
Daily:
NEWS, REVIEW OF THE TURKISH PRESS; then:
Monday:
ATAT?RK: RE-BIRTH OF A NATION; HAREM / FOODS OF THE COURT alternating
Tuesday:
TURKISH PEOPLE FOR BEGINNERS; THIS WORLD IS OURS
Wednesday:
REVIEW OF THE FOREIGN MEDIA; LETTERBOX
Thursday:
MIDDLE EAST THROUGH TURKEY`S WINDOW; AGENDA
Friday:
THE BALKAN AGENDA; THE TURKISH ALBUM
Saturday:
DX CORNER / TURKISH CUSTOMS AND TRADITIONS alternating;
TURKISH POP MUSIC FROM PAST TO PRESENT
Sunday:
LET`S LEARN TURKISH; TURKISH FOLK MUSIC
Monitoring reveals there are additional lengthy music segments in the second
half of the hours. Nothing this time about other fillers or Questions of the
Month --- are they still doing that? O, it`s mentioned in the text introduxion;
you have to find it via the website http://www.trtenglish.com
BTW, the undated online program schedule is long outdated, still showing e.g.
`Live from Turkey`, etc., canceled years ago.
This fan-folder amounting to 10 pages also includes a transmission schedule of
all languages; the English announcers would be well-advised to consult it in
order to promulgate times and frequencies correctly! `DSB` after all
frequencies has finally been removed, duh.
ENGLISH [in UT order, altho 03 is a repeat of previous program day]:
Asia 03-04 6165, 2030-2130 7205, 1630-1730 15520
Africa 03-04 6165
America 03-04 9515*, 22-23 9830*
Europe 03-04 9515, 1830-1930 9785, 2200-2300 9830, 1230-1330 15450*
Australia 2030-2130 7205
* best audible in NAm, except for RTTY on 9830. Note there are really only 7
frequency-hours per day, not 11, with four of them destined for more than one
target area [entire programs or just news segments are archived on website for
one day only, often missing on weekends. Live streams also available, which
they ought to make very clear].
Another page gives all the parameters for TRT on 12 different combinations of
programming and satellites. What kind of audience does that have compared to
webcasts or SW??
Another full page contains URLs for all the language services of TRT, including
two differents for some of them: www.trtturkmen.com and www.trtturkmenche.com
Cover and three pages are devoted to one feature article on Evliya ?elebi
[correctly spelt with dots on the i`s even in upper case], ``undoubtedly the
greatest and most original writer of Turkey`s travel literature . . . on the
400th anniversary of his birth``, and UNESCO is celebrating him this year.
Seems he provides vital historical info about the vast Ottoman Empire (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12100, August 23 at 0447, good signal from WTWW in Portuguese Bible,
approaching 6 am in Portugal, 2 am in most of Brasil; I never manage to catch
it signing off, but must be around 0500, as not heard in following hour, tho
sometimes is fading down before then. I wonder if they have a sign-off
announcement? There is no sign-on announcement, just cuts on the air in
progress around 1300 with Arabic. Before long they will need a lower nighttime
frequency, 5080? That`s registered for 40 degree antenna, or 5765 at 180
degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
