** ALBANIA. 7530, Sat Jan 27 at 2130 I thought to check how R. Tirana is doing,
but figured it was too late after the English broadcast at 2100 --- but it was
not. Still on the air with theme and opening Albanian, fair signal until cut
off at 2130:12*. Altho there is no longer any SW transmission at 2130-2300, it
seems one is still being fed to the Shijak site (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** AUSTRALIA. 15160, researching the RA schedule to advise someone when best to
hear it, I am surprised to find this missing from HFCC; had been a useful
signal here in the 05-08 period when the MUF cooperate, and still in Aoki as 65
degree beam. So has this frequency been canceled? Jan 29 at 0626 there is a JBA
signal which I can just barely // to 13630 also quite weak tonight. RFI also
had English on 15160 at 06-07, but canceled all English SW broadcasts at
yearend. Checking earlier B-11 HFCC files, no RA on 15160 there either, altho
15240 and many others were included, so 15160 must have been missed as it has
certainly been on the air and still is, more favorable beam for us than weaker
// 15240, 13690 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake Jan 29, finally a few frequencies at once:
11500, fair at 1435
12230, good with flutter at 1450
12300, fair with flutter at 1449
12600, good with flutter at 1449
12980, good with flutter at 1449; no others 9-18 MHz by 1455
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [non]. 6060, Jan 29 at 0636, RHC is missing from one of its four
English frequencies on 49m; no loss; it`s the weakest one here anyway, opening
channel for lo het presumably between SRDA Curitiba, Brasil and what else? A
bit early for Russia or China, nothing else scheduled. Splatter from RHC 6050
helps to occupy 6060.
Sunday anomaly expected: Jan 29 at 1431, 9850 is missing; seems to be on all
the other scheduled frequencies 9-15 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST) See also VENEZUELA [non]
** MAURITANIA. 7245, Jan 29 at 0635, IGIM is on with singing, rather than the
usual chanteur (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 39, KWTV-DT, Jan 29 at 1556 UT, Bob Schieffer on CBS` `Face the
Nation` says ``back in just a minute`` as he revels in the full hour he has
finally been granted, ``Battleground Florida`` primary special, and the show is
to be one hour weekly from April, I think --- but not yet in OKC!
Just as I expected, KWTV won`t co?perate, retaining its usual real estate
infomercial at 1600. Will they ever fall into line? BTW, KWTV has continuous
(local) news, repeat after repeat on 9-2, where they could have put part 2 of
FTN if not on 9-1, but they did not.
I`ve been meaning to follow up my report a few weeks ago that 27, KFOR had
cancelled continuous weather on 4-2, to run Ant TV on both 4-2 and 4-3. A few
days later, 4-3 was dropped, and now it`s just 4-2 with Antenna TV old movies
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ROMANIA. 7310, Jan 29 at 0632, reliable RRI English broadcast with top news
item being anti-government protests across Romania, calling for resignation of
the president --- but bare bones, no details or background before on to next
story. First I had heard of it, not exactly headlining US media. Here`s more
about the situation:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/01/24/romania-protests_n_1228525.html
Just how objectively and thoroly is RRI covering this threat to the government
that runs it? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9980, Jan 29 at 1511, Brother Scare via WWCR is
mentioning he is on 9980 and 15190 --- wrong! Not on Sundays: 15190 via IRRS
via Romania confirmed off the air after 1500 (but from next week there will be
an extension to 1530 on Sundays, some other gospel huxter or him? And on
Saturdays he does run to 1700 now despite Vatican Radio DRM at 1530). Not only
is The Last Day Prophet of God wrong about how many days are left, he`s wrong
about his own schedule. How can anyone with half a brain take this nutcase
seriously? But he`s so good for the SW business (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** SWAZILAND [and non]. 9585, Jan 29 at 1458, assertive speech in French
continues right past 1500; listening a bit more closely, it`s a sermon. So this
is TWR`s 1455-1525 broadcast toward Madagascar, per Aoki in French on Sat &
Sun, Malagasy M-F.
Cross-checking in WRTH 2012, it shows French only on Sat, with Malagasy
Sun-Fri, but not so. You still have to look under South Africa to find TWR
Swaziland`s schedule mixed in with Meyerton and Benin MW 1566. Altho TWR Africa
originated in Swaziland, Manzini has been demoted to a mere transmitter site
with HQ in RSA.
BTW, whatever became of their plans for SW as well as MW from Benin? Shortwave
was mentioned in DXLD 5-216:
http://www.worldofradio.com/dxld5216.txt
``TWR new station --- According to TWR the shortwave tower is
up and the transmitter building mostly complete. But judging by prayer
requests there is quite a lot still to do before broadcasts on MW
start! "Please pray for the Higher Authority of Audio-visual Communications
(HAAC) and the Department of Communications in Benin to issue the medium wave
and shortwave radio licenses. This is needed to put the Benin station on the
air (via Steve Whitt, Dec 16, 2005, MWC via DXLD)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U K [non?]. 7385, more strangeness on this frequency, Jan 28 at 2200, BBCWS
opening expanded `From Our Own Correspondent` with teaser including an item I
had heard earlier in week on the 9-minute version, 2201 news, but then chopped
off the air at 2203*. This is still unaccounted for in latest HFCC of Jan 27:
only BBC time on 7385 is 02-04, one hour each from Seychelles and Ascension.
And nothing anywhere scheduled before or after 2200. A few days ago I had heard
Vatican IS on 7385 until 2100*, also unscheduled. What`s going on here, and
from where?
I looked around for another BBC frequency to hear FOOC, found one at 2206, 9915
Ascension, but that had another stream, interview about solar therapy, so not
FOOC.
9745, Jan 29 until 1429, `The Fifth Floor` heard part of discussion among other
BBC language personnel, Russian, Arabic and Vietnamese, such as the difficulty
of translating English idioms, ``bugbears``, clich? quiz. Others of the (only
27 left) languages to be featured next week. Here`s the programme pagge with
audio link for one episodde labeled as 25 minutes, but that`s impossible as
there are only 23 minutes between 1406 and 1429; and a schedulle not including
1406 Sundays, since who cares when it`s on the stream broadcast via Singapore?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00n1xwh
If you click on the ``see all broadcasts`` link you still see the same page
with only 4 times on an unspecified stream. BBCWS after all these years has not
figured out how to manage its totally unnecessary fragmented scheduling. I
later listened to the whole show on demand, and the above 3 language people
only appeared in the last segment, so it`s not a language-by-language rotation;
nor any sign of how many episodes there have been or will be (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9990, Sat Jan 28 after 2200, nothing from WTWW-2, so the transmitter
test has been postponed again. Altho I did not check 5085 after 2400 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. 9955, Sat Jan 28 at 2207 I find WRMI on the air since it`s
a weekend, and in the clear with sufficient signal so I settle in to listen to
`Media Network Plus`. ``Our propagation guru`` Dan Hensley is explaining the
recent CME and its effects to Keith Perron, such as TV breaking up due to
bombardment of satellite. As they were discussing further outages, 9955 dumped
off the air at 2209:55 and was still gone 4 minutes later when I upgave.
9955 still missing Sun Jan 29 at 1510, when presumed Tibetan was heard well
enough but with pulse jamming, i.e. RFA via TINIAN during this hour only, no
sign of WRMI. 1623 check, hoping WORLD OF RADIO would be audible at 1630, but
only lite pulse jamming occupied the space. The DentroCuban Jamming Command
used to leave the 15-17 UT block in English alone (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1601 monitoring: if back on the air, Sunday 1830 on
WRMI 9955, and Monday 1230 when probably jammed. Last, best chance is UT Monday
0330v on Area 51 via WBCQ 5110v-CUSB (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1860, Sunday Jan 29 0642, WA0RCR is just barely modulated with
presumed usual ham radio news broadcast; multiple CW QRM upon the carrier was
much louder, due to a contest? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA [non]. 1559 UT Sunday Jan 29, checking the `Al?, Presidente`
frequencies of RNV via CUBA: yes, El Hugazo is rampant on all five: 13750 best
by far, declining quality on 15370, 17750, 13680, 11690 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX

1060 CUBA Radio Veintis?is, Jovellanos, Matanzas. 1235 January 29, 2012.
Culturally rolling on a post-sunrise Sunday with decadent and loud Rock 'n'
Roll, including Metallica and Def Leppard. Into Matanzas province history and
culture talk a little after 1300. Quite a programming whiplash.
1060 GEORGIA WKNG, Tallapoosa. 1301 January 29, 2012. Popped up over Radio
Veintis?is with female, "....gospel time right here on WKNG" into gospel
program, 770 area code, local spots 1312. Probably just caught the opening, as
listed as D1 at 50 kW.
1190 CUBA Radio Sancti Sp?ritus, Trinidad, Sancti Sp?ritus. 0040 January 28,

For what little it's worth, listed as 1 kW.
1640 UNIDENTIFIED. 1225-1230 January 29, 2012. Someone here carrying Radio
Cat?lica Mundial (EWTN's Spanish network) with bible talk, female net ID.
Obliterated by the 2 X 820 kHz local station WWBA daytime power up at 1230. The
most likely stations at this post-sunrise would seem to be WTMI, Biloxi, MS and
KFXY, Enid, OK, but the formats don't fit this, unless one of them is brokering
on a Sunday morning in non-English. And, I've never heard EWTN brokered, but
rather on dedicated affiliates.
4800 CHINA CNR-1, Golmud. 0006 January 27, 2012. Very weak but in the clear with
Chinese female and male talk. Still no All india Radio making it here.
6155 INDIA All India Radio, Bengaluru. 0101-0245 January 29, 2012. Excellent
listening with mostly subcontinental vocals and instrumentals, listed as Urdu
0015-0430.
6185 M?XICO XEPPM Radio Educaci?n. M?xico DF. 0000 January 29, 2012. Noted with
the required anthem (a slightly different choral version from the stock one most
stations use) followed by male, "... Radio Educaci?n, onda corta 6185 kiloHertz,
10,000 vatios de potencia..."
7000 UNIDENTIFIED. 1200-2100 January 28, 2012. A huge, mutant, noisy carrier
around 7000. Noted 1200 discovery today, and still there 2past 2100. But no
trace of it 1200+ the next day. Can't be too terribly far from the Republic of
Florida, if not within.

BRASIL Radio Brasil Central 11815, coming in about S4 right now at 2350
UTC on January 29 2012. This could be a good night for Brazilians.
Playing Brazilian and international oldies and pops with thundering,
full IDs by male announcer in Portuguese. Heard Badfinger's "Day After
Day" from their live album, which was rather nice to hear. Killed by
REE Digital DRM sign-on at 2356, but the REE DRM signal faded down many
times and was drowned out by Brasil Central. REE is beamed to South
America, so Brasil central apparently can overcome the
"back-of-the-beam" field strength.
BRASIL Radio Clube do Par? 4885 caught with very strong signals at 0442
UTC on 29 January 2012 with Brazilian music with latin beat. Lots of IDs
and commercials as well in Portuguese. Really enjoyable. Makes me
definitely want to go see Carnival!
OMAN Radio Sultanate of Oman 13750, caught at 1433 with Arabic to
eastern Africa. Koranic chanting into long-winded discussion program
between two men. Fair signals, considering the broadcast is supposed to
be beamed to eastern Africa.

Al,
Are you sure about Oman? I haven`t seen this reported before. Not in EiBi or
Aoki, but in HFCC, likely one of several wooden registrations from them. But
Iran in Hindi is on 13750 at 1430-1530, and at that hour would have been
starting the transmission in Arabic (Qur`an).
Since this was Sunday, lucky that Cuba was not on 13750 until later for Alo,
Presidente.

Hi Glenn,
EiBi has Oman here 1400-1730 UTC in their 15 January update. I'm also
wondering if Iran would have had the Arabic Koranic chanting on a Hindi
program? Haven't listened to Iran in ages, so I do not know for sure.
Is there anyone else has heard this? Guess I did get lucky with Cuba.
Was surprised that they were not there. I will give it another shot
tomorrow before I make a final call on it, unless someone else has some
input one way or the other.
Let us move this one onto the "tentative" pile until I can have a crack
at it again tomorrow. I didn't come across the signal until 1433, so
the sign-on would be a definite giveaway! You're more than likely right
and it is a wooden entry, but now I've got to make sure.

Al,
I am looking at EiBi as of Jan 15 (as I was before) and I don`t see any Oman on
13750:
http://www.eibispace.de/dx/freq-b11.txt
AFAIK, *all* VIRI broadcasts in all languages begin with a few minutes of
Qur`an (i.e. in Arabic).
Also see WRTH 2012 for the very limited B-11 schedule of Oman with only 15140
on air from 14 to 15 (in English),
compared to the HFCC registrations,
http://hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=B11&broadc=RSO
almost all of which are imaginary!

Glenn,
I have just sent you a copy of the .csv file from EiBi from 15 January
2012 listing Oman in the 1400-1730 time slot. Could not send it to the
group, so that was ex parte.
I am OK with calling this Iran, but I will make sure tomorrow, if just
for my own peace of mind. I am beginning to believe all published lists
and schedules are imaginary!
73,
Al
