** CANADA. 15125, April 8 at 1543, RCI with a very sad tone, reading letters
from listeners referring to RCI in the past tense. Sounded like the announcer
had a lump in his throat. `Maple Leaf Mailbag` should be a must-hear this week,
following news of RCI`s imminent demise. This transmission with poor reception
was 500 kW, 212 degrees via Wulumuchi, EAST TURKISTAN.
We may expect much better via Sackville at 20-21 on 17735 (after Tunisia cuts
off circa 2008), 15330 and 15235. Or if further east, try the 18-19 broadcast
on 9530 via Kashgar, East Turkistan, 11765 and 17810 via Skelton UK. 17810 is
often well-heard in North America, too (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake April 8, after 1300:
15485, fair at 1313 but off at 1315
15540, fair at 1315, was already on before 15485 went off
16100, very good with flutter at 1317
17450, very good at 1317
After 1330:
15495, good at 1336
15560, good at 1336
15870, good at 1336
16100, very good at 1337
17450, very good at 1339
After 1400:
15615, good at 1412
17570, fair at 1412, frequency of the day for V. of Tibet, Madagascar
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. 17750, April 7 at 1929, RHC is on with open carrier,
allowing 17755 Spain to be heard, and still so at 1933 when French should have
started. Next check at 1936, French has started, blasting away REE. TDP DRM
from GUF at 20-21 is still on 17750-17755-17760 at 2034 check, heavy noise upon
RHC Arabic. TDP`s change to 17870-17875-17880 is ASAP, maybe Monday if not
Sunday once it goes thru the bureaucratic chain.
9810, April 8 at 0500, RHC is still on just because `Sonido Cubano` runs a bit
late, program outro, an echo apart from 11840. But 11760 has already cut off at
0459*. As 9810 is starting to mix with ScandinaVatican, RHC cuts off after
first four notes of IS, and 11840 a few sex later. So it appears the intention
is to close all Spanish frequencies around 0500 rather than one hour later on
9810 as in own schedule.
More dead air from the Cuban Commies: 15340, April 8 at 1312 OC with hum, but
music is on at 1314. At 1321 it`s back to dead air, along with // dead air on
13780. I kept monitoring 15340 and at 1330 sharp, modulation resumed in
progress, fortunately in time for first airing of `En Contacto` #15 of 2012y,
starting a few sex before 1335 at its new DST timing (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 19140, April 8 at 1320, CRI English reaching S9+5 and readable, = 2 x
9570. Don`t think I`ve ever heard this particular harmonic before; no 2 x RHC
found elsewhere above 18 MHz.
Searching DXLD, there is one hit on 19140, in
http://www.w4uvh.net/dxld8026.txt
when ITU monitoring station in France was hearing an unID here during the CRI
hours, 12-14 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. 15190, April 7 at 1929, no signal from R. Africa, an hour
when it is usually active (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ISRAEL. 15785, April 7 at 1931, Galei Zahal, poor signal with song in AM
mode, 1932 Hebrew announcement. Still here, despite CCI and ACI in the
mornings. Meanwhile, ex-15850 beckons for a revival (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** JAPAN [and non]. 6110 via doomed Sackville, CANADA, April 8 at 0510, NHK
news in English outroed by Hirokazu Sakamaki, if I copied the syllables
correctly this time instead of my previous guess, ``Hirokazu Kazamaki``. Time
to look him up on the website. Guess what, no sign of any newscaster names, nor
does anything show up by searching, so I listen to the latest NHK news podcast,
http://www3.nhk.or.jp/rj/podcast/mp3/english.mp3
where he introduces himself, and now I`m quite sure this laid-back guy is
called Hirokazu Sakamaki. True, it`s the news that matters, not the caster, but
they could at least acknowledge him somewhere. Names of presenters of various
other programs are given, including `Friends Around the World`, Kay Fujimoto
and Mick Corliss which followed, but this show is so hokey with their scripted
artificial good humor, I just couldn`t keep listening (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** KUWAIT. 15540, April 7 at 1930, poor signal from R. Kuwait, but it was
better than 15785 Israel, worse than 15630 Greece. 2048 a C&W song about
Wichita, not ``Lineman``; 2050 music stops for news in English including:
Syrian bloodshed etc., Yemen, Libya, Sudan and South Sudan, Pakistan, Virginia
Beach --- finally one item outside the region. 2055 back to scat music, in
Arabic? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA. 15120, April 7 at 1929, no signal, DRM or AM from VON, presumably
because it`s Saturday.
15120.0, April 8 at 0454, VON is on and audible again, from old Ikorodu site
since it`s in AM and not off-frequency, fair signal with national anthem, 0455
sign-on in English. Only a few other signals on 19m, 15400 Dabanga better,
15720 NZ worse (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. Got this reply from Undercover Radio for my 15250 report
April 7 at 1440-1500+:
``It's great to hear from you Glenn. You are the only person that reported it.
I just decided what the heck, and dropped in on 15250 to see what I could drum
up. It was my old classic 20th anniversary show from 2006. Geeze, I guess that
means I've been on the air 26 years now. Power was 1000 watts peak. Thanks for
the very detailed report and I'd be curious to hear if anyone else reported the
show. I suspect being in the middle of the band that more people heard it than
reported it. Dr. Benway``
I guess that means the 20th anniversary QSL package is no longer available.
Still no other reports have reached here of UR on 15250, nor any posts on the
FRN Grapevine (Glenn Hauser, OK, April 8, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PALAU. 11705, April 8 at 1310, praise music in English, rolling fades:
nothing in HFCC, but Aoki has already caught up with this: T8WH has added a
1300-1315 pr?lude of their own to the NHK relays in Indonesian and Japanese at
1315-1430; why? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. IBB continues to allow its stations to approach, if not cross
the boundary separating church and state.
15580, April 7 at 2041, song about ``Jesus, My Saviour``, outro as sung by
Patrick somebody of Rwanda, then a 16-member choral group of genocide survivors
(as is just about everybody remaining in Rwanda) with ``You are the Path and
the Way`` redundantly, host first reading pro-Jesus lyrix translated, as if the
hymn was in English, I could not understand it. Show is `Music Time in Africa`,
host Matthew LaVoy.
He sure sounds different speaking plain American English than in his other
persona in French as Mathieu LaVoie, where he really lays on the hype. MTIA is
normally secular so this diversion is obviously inspired by Christian holydays
underway. Now: equal time for Animists, Atheists, LDS, and everyfaith? They are
certainly entitled to it once you open this religious can of worms, but I
suspect IBB will get away with it, no one else really caring. AUSCS (AUFSOCAS?)
needs to be sic`d on `em. O, 15580 at this hour is via MADAGASCAR, 250 kW, 305
degrees; latest HFCC shows it unused currently by Greenville at any hour.
R. Mart? has a reprehensible history of broadcasting Roman Catholic services to
Cuba to the exclusion of all other faxions, and maybe still do weekly; it`s
hard to find a program schedule. On Easter morning, April 8 at 1306 on 11845,
equal to or below the wall-of-noise jamming level, I am hearing a choir and
organ, but apparently played from the studio as followed by announcer reading
the 23rd Psalm; at least it sounded like a regular announcer rather than a
priest. 13820 bore jamming only, 7405 mostly jamming, and 11930 not yet jammed
or Mart?ed (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9385, April 8 at 0504, Brother Scare is back, as WWRB failed to
switch to 3185 a few hours earlier, absent now. Fair with deep fading (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1611 monitoring: confirmed after 1530 Sunday April 8
on 9955 WRMI, usual poor signal, but unseemed jammed. Repeats at 1730, Monday
0500, 1130. Also confirmed with excellent signal, UT Sunday April 8 at 0400 on
5755 WTWW (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

CYPRUS Re CBC-CYBC weekend shortwave transmission
"Radiofoniko Idrima Kyprou"
Fri/Sat/Sun only at 2210-2245 UT on 5925 7220 9760 kHz.
YES sure,
I noted also that cutting after 5 minutes CARRIER ONLY outlet during few
last weeks now !
Has something to do with connection to new CONTROL ROOM location by
Babcock - out of Bush House London??
Maybe they never connected CYBC audio feed line via new Babcock control room
to Zyyi-Cyprus relay site before?
May Costas Constantinides can phone CBC Nicosia bcasting house on this
matter?

** BELGIUM [non]. 17870-17875-17880, April 8 at 2001, DRM is now here
ex-17750-17755-17760 for `The Disco Palace`, via GUIANA FRENCH, due to RHC
moving strong AM signal onto 17750 last Sunday, as I also suggested to Ludo
Maes he move away to avoid Spain on 17755 as well (Sat & Sun only during this
hour). Arnie Coro, the bully, has a record of forcing others to compensate for
his mistakes, and now without lifting a finger, RHC also benefits from escaping
the QRDRM. See COSTA RICA; CUBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 15330 // 15235 and 17735, all Sackville, April 8 at 2003 after quick
news summary, RCI playing song ``O Happy Day`` this being Easter, and Buddha`s
birthday, says Terry Haig. (Only in Japan; see
http://buddhism.about.com/od/buddhistholidays/tp/whenisbuddhasbirthday.htm
showing different countries and sects observe it mostly on various
lunar-influenced dates in May; rather like JC`s variable holidates)
Happy Day? A bit of irony, ``a bittersweet day, since RCI is going off the air
on June 26``, he says. Terry Haig is a frequent substitute host for Ian Jones
on `MLM`, who is now recovering from hip surgery. Here`s one little thumbnail
of Terry I found on the website:
http://www.rcinet.ca/english/illustration/chronicle/thumbs2/N1Cg82_PvUhCK_wDgWBY_TerryHaig.jpg
First half of the show avoids the subject, but occasional songs are on the sad
side. At 2028 down to business; Terry says he is not going to comment, as he is
``losing his job and has an ax to grind``, but he doesn`t have to, reading
numerous distraught messages from listeners. But first he reads the death
notice from the RCI website. A web presence will be maintained in five
languages, but not including news.
I do recognize several of the names mentioned, but many more I do not: a good
sign that there are lots of lurking listeners out there not known to us active
SWL hobbyists. The ones I know or know of: Tim Breyel in Malaysia; Edward
Kusalik, Alberta; John Figliozzi, NY; Rog Parsons, England; KV Zichi, Michigan;
Peter Q. George, northeast US.
Terry also referred several times to the Cambodian woman who guested last week,
and urges everyone never to frown even if you`re unhappy, because your smile
will always affect others positively. (Not the way she put it, but you get the
idea: I need to remember that.) See last week`s webpage pixuring her:
http://www.rcinet.ca/english/program/the-maple-leaf-mailbag/archives/episode/17-39_2012-03-30-/
``Kuy Chheng Treng, the lovely Cambodian student currently in Canada
participating in a global leadership course whom Terry met two weeks ago as
they waited for a bus.``
I don`t see an audio archive yet for this week`s show, and you can`t guess the
URL, as the xx-xx numbers before the date are unpredictable (time of day when
recorded, maybe?). Latest is here, with RSS:
http://www.rcinet.ca/english/program/the-maple-leaf-mailbag/home/
If you missed the SW broadcast and are even one of those who swears they
``won`t listen to radio on the computer``, I suggest you make an exception and
hear this one! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COSTA RICA. 17850, again this Sunday April 8 when REE relay extends past
2000, I expect to hear at least some of the octet of spurs captured April 1
from below 17800 to above 17900. But now some of them are blocked by QRDRM from
TDP which has just moved to 17870-17875-17880 to escape CubaRM from 17750 to
17750-17755-17760. At least Cariari is splattering modulation spixe between
17800 and 17900, at no specific frequencies (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. Checking RHC April 8: 17750 starting at 1930 to `Europe` is
now clear of QRDRM at 20-21, as Ludo Maes has moved `The Disco Palace` via
Guiana French from 17755 to 17875; see BELGIUM [non]. Even tho it was Arnie at
RHC who caused the problem by picking 17750 for A-12 ex-13640 in B-11, ignoring
what was already on 17750-17760. I was listening to RCI most of the hour, but
at 2057 found RHC was off 17750; antenna change?
2058, sign-on announcement on 17705 for the 21-23 broadcast: 17705 for N/C/SAm;
9710 Antillas; 9810 CAm; 11840 & 17705 SAm; 17750 Europe; tropical 5040. Once
this was done, checked 17750 again at 2100 and it`s back on. Already from 2057
on 17745 the RRI IS, adjacent in Spanish at 21-22, 300 kW, 247 degrees from
Tiganeshti to CIRAF 14 = northern Argentina, and parts of all neighboring
countries; why only parts? Only ITU knows. They need not be adjacent with all
the empty 16m channels.
At 2102, tried 11840 and heard dead air, then fading in RHC Spanish audio,
while BaBcoCk music was playing! Zero-beat so sounded like from same
transmitter, but must have been CCI from another. Both were still heard at 2113
[see VIETNAM [non]]. At 2105, RHC was on 9810, but missing from 9710. At 2112,
9710 how with open carrier and hum, maybe about to modulate?
Meanwhile I look for harmonix of these, after having heard the CRI relay in the
morning on 19140 = 2 x 9570. At 2111 I get a JBA carrier on 19620, maybe 2 x
9810; at 2112, also a JBA carrier on 19420, maybe 2 x 9710. Will need a bit
more signal to be sure of these, like by matching // audio. At 2113, nothing on
23680 = 2 x 11840.
Esperanto? Back at 2037 a quick check of 11760 found it off the air, unlike
last Sunday when they were playing Esperanto from 2030. So is it still at 2230
on 15370? Yes, confirmed, opening with schedule including a `new time`, but I
wasn`t taping to be sure I heard the numbers correctly. The latest 8 April
audio is already available:
http://www.radiohc.cu/eo/audio/mp3/Esperanto-08-04-12.mp3
And they are still announcing, Sundays UT:
N/C/SAm 1500 11760
San Francisco, Usono: 0700 6010
SAm 2230 15370 ``nova horo``
But it`s *not* a new time; would have been if they kept 2030 on 11760! (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VIETNAM [non]. 11840, April 8 at 2102 whilst checking out announced and
listed RHC frequencies, at first all I hear is the BaBcoCk music loop
filler/IS, then RHC fades up its audio; still hearing both at 2113! Per HFCC,
BAB is supposed to be broadcasting VOV in Vietnamese to SE Europe and Turkey,
via Woofferton UK at 2030-2130; would have been Commies vs Commies! (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
