** CHINA [and non]. Firedrake July 22, before 1200:
14700 at 1158, JBA; none in the 11s, 12s, 13s, 15s, 16s, 17s
Circa 1230:
11500, poor at 1230
12670, fair at 1231
14700, good at 1233
15555, fair at 1234
16100, fair at 1235; none in the 17s
Before 1400:
13920, very good at 1357; none in the 12s
14700, very poor at 1356
15605, good at 1355; no WEWN 15615 audible, off? WWCR 15825 very poor
16100, very good at 1356
16920, very good at 1356; none in the 17s
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 9540, July 22 at 1151, RHC transmitter is back in whack today, after
blobby strays to 9525 yesterday and 9503 previously. I expect it`s not the last
time. Now over CRI on 9540 and an echo apart from // 9550 from the other RHC
site (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EGYPT. 9305, July 20 at 0504, R. Cairo is still buzz-only, further weakening
well into dayside there. Aoki shows the General Service in Arabic, 'El-Bernameg
Al-Aam' at 1900-0700, 250 kW, 315 degrees from Abis toward Europe and North
America. Is it all-buzz, all-the-time now? Well, at least most of the time, and
if not, with extremely distorted modulation. The incompetence of the Egyptian
engineers(?) and moreso whoever is ``managing`` these monstrosities knows no
bounds (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ETHIOPIA [and non]. Re last report: ``UNIDENTIFIED. 15170-15175-15180, July
21 at 1852 past 1900, unknown DRM signal here, very strong and much stronger
than 15115-15120-15125 Voice of Nigeria. Could find nothing in DRM schedules or
fora about this. In fact, only one analog transmission earlier in the day from
India is scheduled on 15175. But I could also hear a weak AM carrier under the
noise on 15175. A tree in the forest, falling with no notification to the few
DRM enthusiasts who might want to listen (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)``
Sei-ichi Hasegawa, Japan replies: ``Dear Glenn, This signal is not DRM. It is
the jamming of the DRM type from Ethiopia for Badr Radio.
de Hiroshi``
Oh yes, the AM underneath was a clue; I should have searched DXLD archive on
15175, to find this in 12-22; so the Badr frequency and the jamming will jump
around, and only on Fri-Sat-Sun:.
``ETHIOPIA [non]. RUSSIA, QSL Badr Broadcasting Network via Samara-
RUSSIA 15165 kHz. Badr Broadcasting Network 15165 kHz bestaetigte
meinen Empfangsbericht innerhalb von 25 Tagen mit unterschriebener und
abgestempelter PPC. Adresse: Badr Ethiopia, 4701 Sangamore Road, Suite
#125 South, Bethesda MD 20816, USA.
Eine e-mail brachte keine Antwort. Die Stationen sendet 1830-1900 UT
im Bereich von 15165 kHz. Auf der Webseite http://www.badrradio.com
werden inzwischen die Frequenzen 15150 / 15155 / 15165 / 15170 / 15175
/ 15180 kHz genannt, wohl um aethiopischen Jammern zu entgehen.
(Patrick Robic, Austria, A-DX May 18 via BC-DX May 30 via DXLD)
New TDP station - Badr Radio/Badr Broadcasting Network in Amharic,
1830-1900 15165 SAM 250 kW 188 deg Fri-Sun to EaAF, eff April 20 (DX
MIX News, Ivo Ivanov-BUL, via wwdxc BC-DX TopNews May 1, ibid.)``
But still, 15175 is missing from all the current frequency schedule references.
Except re-looking at Aoki, not a main entry but:
``15165 Badr Radio 1830-1900 1....67 Amharic 250 188 Samara RUS 05015E 5317N
BBN TDP a12 15150-15175``
The DRM promoters should be ashamed of availablizing their technology for
jamming! What I heard sounded just like DRM noise, but I suppose would not have
decoded to anything intelligible/legible. Could the Ethiopians at least tag it
``Gotcha, Badr!``? (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA NORTH [and non]. 6070, July 22 at 1142, VOK Japanese service with
characteristic choral music, making a ripple SAH under still stronger CFRX; so
VOK is back almost-on-frequency after making an audible het from closer to 6071
for a few weeks (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MAURITANIA. 7245, Sunday July 22 at 0508, IGIM is on with Arabish talk, in
an increasingly rare early appearance; fluttery, unusual too for this path
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 930, July 22 at 1220 UT, WKY, OKC with hard-sell super-hype ``La
Indomable`` promos and ads, music; no English. Used to default to that foreign
language for a pubaffs show on Sunday mornings only at 1200-1230, but could be
just a summer break/vacation. The ads within it had continued to be in Spanish,
weird. BTW, why is Indomable feminine? Adjectivally, it could just as easily be
El Indomable, and WKY`s super-hype style is anything but feminine. And I
continue to be amused that this oh-so Spanish station banishing its long Okie
legacy has calls made up mostly of letters lacking in Spanish. But at least
they didn`t abolish the calls; someday it may revert to English (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 3450-, July 22 at 1145, ``OK`` HIFER beacon, clear and strong
enough vs the noise level; weaker but still audible at 1312, but not at 1352.
Tnx to tip from Kenneth Vito Zichi, Michigan, MARE Tipsheet, who reported:
``3449.9/CW, OK, Hifer 35443+ 0739 14/July -- first time heard in a dog?s
age!``
This one is allegedly quite near me somewhere in northern OK. Nor have I heard
it in a long time, but my local noise level on 2-5+ MHz is too high. It`s one
of those secret beacons sending nothing but the ID `OK` over and over. I wonder
if the late Kirk Allen, Ponca City, had anything to do with it. More on HIFERs
here:
http://www.hfunderground.com/wiki/HiFER
http://www.hfunderground.com/wiki/High_Frequency_Beacon
The latter has a frequency list showing OK last reported January 5, 2012. But
the log forum
http://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,5913.0.html
shows it back by May 25. Someone thinks it may be in Arkansas, and measured
3449.83. There are many more of these listed, mostly in the western US, in the
4056-4102 range, worth sweeping with BFO (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 12105, July 22 at 0500, WTWW-3 in Portuguese cuts off the air
abruptly at 0500:15*, no ID and no sign-off announcement. I have never caught
this service with a sign-on or off, and the IDs appear at odd times during
programming, rarely at hourtop (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9265, July 22 at 1150, WINB is on here with YL gospel huxter, fair
signal. Next check at 1232, another one on 13570. WINB never gets its act
together in portraying its own schedule accurately on website, failing to show
the Sunday-only early broadcast before 1200 is on 9265 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 11715.0, July 22 at 1359, KJES, OM in English quoting Bible or
something, 1400 no ID but switch to YL hymnsinging; sufficient signal but
undermodulated, and right on frequency, a first! Its appearances are
increasingly rare; check 11715 at 13-16, 15385 at 18-20, 7555 at 0100-0230
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 770, July 22 at 1221, weak but steady signal from ``The Talk Monster,
KKOB``, Albuquerque NM, ads, medical infomercial. What happened to
`Perspective` from ABC News, which used to air at 6-7 am MT Sundays? Website
makes it very hard to find program schedule, not on the main menu but just
above it inside an ad block:
http://www.770kkob.com/common/more.php?m=10&mode=schedule&r=1
Undated, still shows ABC`s `Perspective`. Does the show still exist? It used to
be a must-listen for me when it presented long-form reports, just talking, ? la
BBC`s `From Our Own Correspondent` which has also been downsized. Then ABC
dumbed down `Perspective` with tabloid stuff and worked in retreads of TV
features. Yes, it`s still easily accessible with podcast archive and topic list
for each at
http://abcnewsradioonline.com/perspective/
As for KKOB reception, July official sunrise and switch to non-direxional is
1200 UT; August 1230. Winter is on the way! (Glenn Hauser, 100+ degree OK, DX

** COSTA RICA. 17850, July 22 at 1836 and still at 2203, REE relay with VG
signal minus spurs all over the band as often the case last few days. I`m sure
they`ll be back again before long (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EGYPT. More chex for R. Cairo`s English broadcasts on new frequencies, ex
6270s:
11890, July 22 at 2200, good strength but just-barely-modulated, a sure sign of
R. Cairo as now scheduled at 2115-2245 to Europe.
9965, July 22 at 2321, YL pause in news for ID as North American service of R.
Cairo; but quite distorted as usual on this frequency which is followed by
Arabic after 0030.
Already confirmed the third English sesquihour from 0200 is still on 9315, not
9720 as in WRTH July update (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ETHIOPIA [and non]. 15165-15170-15175, Sunday July 22 at 1835, weak DRM
jammer audible and also weaker AM carrier on 15170, no doubt as explained in
previous report, Ethiopia vs Badr Broadcasting Network, which is Islamic
evangelism, but how political is it? Enough to jam. Today it`s 5 kHz lower, so
the Ethies have no problem in tracking it to whatever different frequencies on
Fri-Sat-Sun. There was no DRM around at first check 1832, and no movement at
1845 halfway into the show, so this evasion is not effective. It might be if
BBN, via TDP via Samara, RUSSIA, were prepared to jump around during each
broadcast, altho that is also a good way to lose listeners even if the
frequency is momentarily away from the DRjaM. Today this was quite weaker than
Nigeria DRM on 15115-15125, unlike yesterday.
Wolfgang B?schel also found it centered on 15170 today: ``Tonight 'seen WHITE
NOISE signal' from Gedja Ethiopia on 15163-15177 kHz wide range. S=9+10dB in
central Europe.``
The TDP schedule at http://www.airtime.be/schedule.html shows only 15165 for
Badr Radio. Ironic that TDP, a big promoter of DRM, is victimized by it (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KUWAIT. 15540, July 22 at 1833 check, fair signal with western pop music, no
English news as normally appears at 1830-1835, or never on Sunday? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. A bit of sporadic E analog TV DX July 22, UT:
2035 on 4, F?rmula Uno racing coverage the dominant signal, also with CCI here
and weaker stuff on 2, 3 and 5. Racing was wrapping up at 2100.
2046 on 4, Galavisi?n promos, not sure if same station as above, anyway both
unIDed
2059 on 2, net 7 bug UR during movie or drama. XHTAU Tampico is always the
prime suspect when southward
All faded by around 2110, and outside later saw the antenna was still pointed
NNE toward Canada from yesterday`s DX, rather than SSW, oops. (The rotor
control is out of sight and I have to be sure to feel which way the notch is
pointing.) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

ever have time to process them? (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
