Bolivia, 6134.89, Radio Santa Cruz, 1020-1030, Noted music with promos and
ADs
between each tune. From 1022 when the music paused, just promos and live
comments was heard until 1027 when music started up again. Signal was poor.
(Chuck Bolland, December 7, 2012)
Peru, 4809.97, Radio Logos, 1036-1050, It took some tweaking, but I finally
was
able to tune out a lot of the interference using the notch and LSB mode to
hear
a male in Spanish language comments. Could not hear any of the topic being
presented due to the signal's poor quality. (Chuck Bolland, December 7,
2012)
Bolivia, 6105.41, Radio Pan-American, 1045-1100, Presumed, Noted a weak
station under one on 6105 KHz with just steady music. Not much else to log
at this point. Perhaps an earlier check would have produce better results.
(Chuck Bolland, December 7, 2012)
Unident, 6124.95, 1100-1115, Noted an unident station here in steady
comments
which are probably news. Language sounded like Asian, but which Asian
language
is difficult to determine? If I had to choose, I would say this may be RRI
Nabire, Indonesia,
but that is because I have a problem with "wishful thinking". So for the
time being,
let's just say undetermined. Some one heard Nabire in Dec, 2006, but the
listener was
in Europe and it was at 1206 UTC on this freq. (Chuck Bolland, December 7,

PALAU/GUAM 15420.000 Very weak signal of S=4 - probably - Radio Free
Kenyalang in Iban noted at remote Japan and Russia posts, around 1145-1155
UT, Dec 7. Nothing heard on western Europe.
Though from 1200 UT different AWR Agat Guam broadcast starts in probably
Amoy / Chinese, different stronger, even in Europe S=8 signal.

** ASCENSION. 21745-21750-21755, Dec 7 at 1443, DRM noise, fair signal but
probably insufficient here. What`s this? Fortunately, ``Ste Cooper`` had posted
to the dxldyg:
>From the DRM Facebook page
>http://www.facebook.com/digitalradiomondiale.drm?fref=ts
[It seems that FB no longer allows non-members to view anything?]
``"On 7th December the BBC will run a DRM Short Wave transmission from the
Ascension Island on 21750 kHz. Between 1200 and 1500 Brazilian time (1000 and
1300 GMT)." In English but directed towards South America?``
That time conversion is wrong, of course, the equivalent UT being 14-17! Is
this in Dec 7 HFCC? Of course not! As for English, why not? It`s just a demo,
probably for another conference in Brasil promoting DRM over its rivals. IIRC,
there are currently no regular DRM broadcasts via Ascension. Remember BYU Radio
from SLC? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 900, Dec 7 at 0629 UT, romantic music in Spanish from NW/SE, and guess
what, it`s about 1 second or a satellite hop behind // 890 from same direxion,
atop nulled WLS. Therefore I conclude these are Radio Progreso, which WRTH 2012
lists as:
900, 50 kW, San Germ?n, Holgu?n
890, 200 kW, Chambas, Ciego de ?vila
Note: there are no double-S`s in Spanish: it`s NOT ``Progresso``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 7579-CW, Dec 7 at 1326, cut numbers. ENIGMA
http://www.numbersoddities.nl/En73a.pdf
classifies this as M08a, the same station as heard on 5800, 5883, 5898 and many
others (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDIA. 9452v, Dec 7 at 1333, AIR Aligarh banshee has wandered here from
nominal 9470 (where it never lands anymore?), and in the next minute has
descended to 9444. Aoki lists: ``9315v AIR National Channel 1320-0043 1234567
Hindi/English 250 188 Aligarh IND 07806E 2800N AIR b12 // 9425`` and not on
9470 --- so perhaps that is the lower edge of its range, 9315 axually heard in
BC by Harold Sellers, Dec 1 at 2109.
13710, Dec 7 at 1400 after some nice Indian music, AIR GOS ID and opening
`Radio Newsreel`, but right into items with NO theme music! I pined to hear
``Imperial Echoes`` as on the original BBC show of the same name, but that
might conjure up unpleasant memories in India. Yet without British rule, AIR
would never have mimicked such a program title. 13710 was fair, better than
poor // 9690 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA NORTH [non]. 7595, Dec 7 at 1327, very poor signal in talk, Asian
language? Seems tonal, but not if it`s Korean. Heavy RTTY QRM on hi side. HFCC
shows 12-14, NEW WRN, 200 kW, 70 degrees from Tashkent, Uzbekistan starting 1
December.
But Aoki shows these two hours as Radio Free Chosun, 200 kW, 71 degrees from
Dushanbe-Yangiyul, Tajikistan since Dec 3. EiBi has neither, just Sound of Hope
via Tajikistan and matching Firedrake at other hours on 7595 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KURDISTAN [non]. 11840, Dec 7 at 1513, ``Imagine`` by John Lennon, no doubt
an anniversary tribute, from of all things, VOA Kurdish service via
Lampertheim, GERMANY as regularly heard here. That song is a terrific anthem
for the world (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SARAWAK [non]. 15650, Dec 7 before 1400 still no signal from R. Free
Kenyalang; however, Ivo Ivanov points out that WRN has registered a new one in
HFCC, 15430 at 12-14 UT via ``Kazakhstan``, but he and others were not hearing
it yet today; maybe tomorrow (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1646 monitoring: confirmed first airing on WTWW-1,
9479, Thursday December 6 at 2200. And second airing on WWRB, 3195, UT Friday
December 7 at 0431:40 after 2+ minute pause following ``amen & amen`` from
Pastor Larry Cain in SC. Shux, // 5050 was not on tonight, off for the winter
or sporadic? Note: BDXC-UK DX program listing has this on 3215, which is never
the case, but 3195.
Next: UT Saturday 0230v on Area 51 via WBCQ 5110v-CUSB; UT Sunday 0500 on
WTWW-1 5830; on HLR, Sat 0630 on 7265, 1630 on 6190. On WRMI 9955, Sat 0900,
1600, 1830, Sun 0900, 1630, Mon 0530, Tue 1200. On WRN via SiriusXM 120, Sat
1830. Many other webcasts; full schedule at
http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 570, Dec 7 at 0601 UT, without even trying, ID from KSNM Las Cruces
NM again as I tune across. I am beginning to think they are on 5 kW ND day
power (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VATICAN. 6075, Dec 7 at 0619, VR is on in French; and 7250 is on with non //
signal, very poor but maybe Portuguese? 3975 is not on air yet. More slipshod
operation at SMG: Per HFCC, 3975, 6075 and 7250 are all not supposed to start
until 0630 for Latin mass. There is a French broadcast to Africa at 0600-0630
supposed to be on 11625, 13765 only; and Portuguese until 0600 on the same plus
7360, tho 13765 then is Madagascar (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 7575, Dec 7 at 1328-1330+ continuous tone of about 1 kHz. Nothing
in any of the schedules except VOA English via Tinang, Philippines at 15-16
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

9704.951 test tone disappeared after one hour !, at 1810:40 UTC.
TX cut-off then.
Fluttery nominal 9704.951 kHz was accompanied by 6 x tone peaks
(3 on each side),
i.e. on upper flank 9706.141, 9707.331, and 9708.521 kHz.
7235.145 ... wandering up to x.158 kHz probably R ETH, hit heavily by KBS
World Radio Seoul in Russian on even 7235 kHz. 1820 UT Dec 7.

** CUBA. 1620, Dec 8 at 0039 UT as I tune in, Spanish, sounds like Ra?l Castro,
for the moment atop the US stations making slow SAH, i.e. R. Rebelde, probably
the closest one, in Guanabacoa CH, 5 kW per WRTH 2013 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. 11880, Dec 7 at 2132, open carrier from RHC, allowing one to
hear Portuguese from NHK Radio Japan underneath, which was already on 11880 at
2130-2200 via GUIANA FRENCH. Was Arnie monitoring to confirm that`s really the
case? Or just usual slipshod operation. I don`t know whether French aired
intact until 2130. Just before 2135, RHC`s own Portuguese modulation cuts on,
covering up NHK (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 780, Dec 8 at 0109 UT, dominant signal is news in Spanish, WBBM
completely nulled, and this one peaks slightly west of due south. Ciudad
Victoria mentioned several times; 0111 ``la primera pausa de la hora`` and
jingle I could not understand. Pause-announcements include a meeting this week
in Toluca about labor law; promo for `La Hora Nacional` Sunday at 10 pm,
``M?xico unido en una sola se?al``, i.e. every radio station is obliged to
carry this weekly government hour; then a minute or more of just instrumental
music. 0114, plugging contacto methods for the show, phone report from Ciudad
Victoria.
Obviously this is from Tamaulipas, where Victoria is the state capital, but
there are two 780 stations in the state: XEMTS in Tampico, F?rmula NotiGape;
and XESFT in San Fernando, la Triple T. Cant?`s linx to both lead to group
websites, neither of which mentions a station on 780! XESFT is more often
heard, but I`m leaning to XEMTS based on the emphasis on news. OTOH, XESFT is
very slightly further west than XEMTS which is close to due south from here.
Low rumbling het growing from something else, as the het with WBBM is
subaudible (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 1120, Dec 8 at 0118 UT, daytimer KEOR Sperry/Catoosa/Tulsa is
still going with non-stop Mexican music, best in KMOX null, now with a
160/minute SAH = 2 and 2/3 Hz. I have also continued to hear KEOR whenever
checked, day or night since last log (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PRIDNESTROVYE. 7290, UT Friday December 7 at 2045, Radio PMR with operatic
music (the second half of each semihour is customarily music fill of some
sort). Recheck at 2129 some Russian, then 3-pip timesignal about 5 sex late,
and into French. 2150 now songs in Russian to 2200 stop modulation without
announcement and carrier off before 2201*.
In case anyone still believe the publicized schedule ``Monday-Friday 18-23
UT``, I have now reconfirmed what we knew before --- they mean M-F strictly by
the local clock, i.e. they quit at midnight Friday night, and resume at the
beginning midnight of local Monday, i.e. 2200 UT Sunday, as previously
confirmed already on the air then, when there is English at the time most
convenient for us in North America, UT Sunday thru Thursday, NOT M-F (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 7490, Fri Dec 7 at 2202, WBCQ with `Behaviour Night`, old record show
in progress, and as I expected from allied `Marion`s Attic` at same time on
Sunday, this is also ruined by co-channel QRM from BBCWS in English via
THAILAND, making a fast SAH, and almost as strong. Standard remark about need
for better frequency co?rdination (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1646 monitoring: confirmed on 5110v-CUSB, Area 51 via
WBCQ with late start, UT Saturday Dec 8 at 0237:54, after a long `Allan Weiner

the low side of 7170 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

CUBA This morning around 07 to 08 UT Dec 8, when the 31 mb path from North
America to western Europe was wide open, heard FOUR typical "SHRAP, SHRAP
tone" jamming signals like against WRMI from Cuba on 9954.950 kHz.
Noted also on 9490, 9565, and 9885 kHz.
Channels are used also on different times of day for
9490 Cuban opposite Radio Republica via Montsinery-GUF?
9565 R Marti via Greenville.
9885 VoA Spanish via Greenville.
So, these outlets are 24 hrs operation from cane island...
