Judul: Echo of Europe broadcast today !
Hello,
Last night due to a server problem at nodal Milan, Echo of Europe could not
broadcast its weekly program on 7290kHz.
In fact we exceptionally broadcast today:

- 18:45 UT on 7290 kHz
Good Sunday to all

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
** BRAZIL. 11780, Jan 13 at 0225, RNA/RNB is missing except for a noise blob,
and furthermore there is a wideband noise level roughly 11.3 to 11.8 MHz, which
I suspect is from the 11780 transmitter wildly manfunxioning (while 6180 is
OK). The wideband noise on 25 m was first reported at 0150 by Gilles
Letourneau, Montr?al to the DXLD yg, around 11450-11900, peaking 11600-11650
and then heard by several others, and Gilles says it stopped at 0441. Jorge
Freitas in Brasil says 11780 was still off the air at 1450 Jan 13. I had
quickly forwarded this info to the radioescutas group the night before where
someone with RNB may have seen it, and killed the transmission (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. 9530, Sunday Jan 13 at 1320, western classical music, orchestra with
clarinet, not often heard from CNR1 jammers, but better than Firedrake or hyper
even echoey Chitalk all the time. Then heard // on many other frequencies, some
perhaps not jammers, but I`m not going to bother to sort them out: 7445, 7310,
7295, 6175, 6125, 6085, 6045, 6030; Chinese announcement at 1328, and by 1340
also on 15265 playing Strauss waltz. Despite this propagation, no Firedrake
found 12-18 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6010, UT Sunday Jan 13 at 0705, Rad?o Havano Kubo weekly Esperanto is
reconfirmed, once all the other frequencies have closed. Travelog about
Camag?ey; it seems the Esperanto term for airport is flughaveno.
11845, Jan 13 at 1403, lite pulse jamming from the incompetent DentroCuban
Jamming Command, on a frequency occupied by R. Mart? only during the A-seasons,
as here we are at the midpoint of B-12 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** FRANCE. 7390, Jan 13 at 0657, German cabaret music, but 0659 French
announcement and off at 0700*, i.e. RFI, currently scheduled 04-07, but
shifting azimuths each hour, 130-160-185 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** GREECE. 7475, Jan 13 at 0616 rock music, so must be R. Philia in service
this time, since not // 9420 VOG with Orthochanting as usual on Sunday
mornings. Then at 0632 on 7475, Spanish ID for R. Fil?a, announcing only FM and
AM frequencies, i.e. ``665`` instead of correct 666 due to institutionalized
superstition. Brief Spanish segment was a travel talk about ski areas (in
Greece?!), and another Spanish would be on tomorrow at 9 am; 0636.6 said
``adi?s``, and on to music fill. Ivo Ivanov says Spanish is Sat & Sun at
0630-0700, while other days it`s a full hour of Albanian from 0600. Meanwhile,
third transmitter was JBA on 11645 at 0632, but enough to confirm it was //
9420, not 7475. At 0700, 7475 had weakened considerably as R. Filia shifted
into German, which is also Sat/Sun only; while 9420 remained strong with the
Greek Orthodox concert past 0723 when I expired (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** INDIA. 9425, Jan 13 at 1319, AIR IS is very poor, 1320 into ``Vande
Mataram`` theme. This is the National Channel from Delhi opening its all-night
service, registered in HFCC to start at 1305 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** IRAN. 15150, Jan 13 at 1332, VIRI IS is playing in extended version, when
normally it would be time for Qur`an at the start of a transmission. Fair with
flutter, still at 1339, but gone at next check 1349. The only IRIB scheduled on
15150 is Chinese at 1200-1300, 500 kW, 65 degrees from Kamalabad, where they
must have been a tad late turning off the transmitter, with the program feed
from Tehran thus occupied (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** JAPAN [non]. 11960, Jan 12 at 2149, VP signal here; I can make out a song,
some Japanese, and then Portuguese, so probably in that learn-a-song language
lesson segment, NHK World R?dio Jap?o has finally moved out from under CUBA
which usurped original B-12 frequency 11880, also in Portuguese at 2130. This
had not been accomplished as of Jan 10, some two weeks after the change was
registered, but may have been Jan 11, unchecked then. This GUIANA FRENCH relay
is much weaker than expected here, even considering it`s off the back, but no
doubt the Brazilians can finally hear it well without QubaRM (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KURDISTAN [non]. 11510, Sunday Jan 13 at 1415-1455+, another lovely concert
of Kurdish music, nary an announcement; fair signal with some flutter, and the
occasional IAD. Still registered in HFCC by BRB as SMF = ``Simferopol,
Ukraine`` a site which does not exist. Why does Ludo do it?? Ivo Ivanov says
it`s really via KCH = Grigoriopol, PRIDNESTROVYE (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 1020, Jan 12 at 2234 UT, KOKP Perry trying to carry Fox Sports
Radio, has severe audio breakups, unlistenable; this Saturday afternoon it is
not // unscathed 1580 KOKB Blackwell, as these sibling stations separate when
there are different sillyballgames to carry.
1020, Jan 13 at 1355 UT, KOKP audio is still/again cutting up, with KMMQ
Nebraska, clear in its null, see U S A (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TAIWAN [non]. 15440, Jan 12 at 2220, RTI via WYFR in English but with
crackling audio breakup, while // 6115 is OK. Therefore it is a problem at
WYFR, like loose antenna wire connexions or feedline shorting? (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1651 monitoring: confirmed on WTWW-1 5830, UT Sunday
Jan 13 at 0500, excellent signal this time, but automation is currently set to
start playback about 15 sex early, meaning the canned hourtop ID interrupts our
billboard again. Further chances, on WRMI 9955: Monday 0530, Tuesday 1200
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5050, Jan 12 at 2209, surprised to hear Brother Scare here, must be
WWRB firing up this frequency early, but NOT synched with 9370, the dedicated
BS daytime frequency. However, one semi-minute later, 5050 replaces BS with
some band music, then introduxion of by a gospel huxter about how to justify
windstorms, rain and floods as Acts of God (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 5085, Jan 13 at 0230, WTWW-2 is on again this UT Sunday, Ted Randall
QSO show with some ham commenting on antennas vs condo associations, so find a
remote location to operate. 0621 next check, it`s still on, Ted now
interviewing someone about how great the Dramatized Word of God is in languages
as on WTWW-3 12105. 5085 off sometime before my 0705 final check. I don`t think
so, but if anyone notice Ted playing WORLD OF RADIO anytime on Saturday
evenings, please inform me (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 750, Jan 12 at 2238 UT, ad for US Carpet in Chicago, in Ukrainian,
with phone numbers except switching to English to pronounce area code 773,
why?? That applies to the city of Chicago/suburbs outside the downtown/Loop. Of
course, it`s 15 kW daytimer WNDZ Portage IN. It must have signed off at 2245,
legal sunset in January. The only PSSA it`s authorized is a 15-minute extension
in December from sunset 2215 to 2230 UT with 10 watts (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1020, Jan 13 at 1355 UT, ``La Nueva 10-20`` by SHVA, Mexican music
but not // 930 WKY which has happened before; in null of breaking-up semi-local
KOKP Perry OK, q.v. This is KMMQ Plattsmouth NE (Omaha mercado) (Glenn Hauser,
Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Now that WCKL`s odd-numbered SW harmonics of MW 560 from Catskill NY
have been heard by several in the northeast --- Dave Valko in PA, Kraig Krist
in VA, Jim Renfrew and John Herkimer in NY, Stephen Wood and Jim Balle in MA,
both day and night on 3920, 5040, 6160, I am looking for it too, but no luck so
far, such as circa 2200 UT Dec 12. 6160 heard by Kraig vs Canada, is the
eleventh harmonic already, so I also checked x13 = 7280 and x15 = 8400. The
probably stronger third harmonic is probably blocked by fundamentally 1680
stations.
As I told Dave, who first inquired about it as an unID January 8, Wikipedia
says WCKL is mostly off the air, fired up for a few days a year to keep license
active. No specific program schedule, and the listen live doesn`t work at
http://familybroadcasting.net/
Legal FCC sunrise and sunset for WCKL in January are 1230 and 2145 UT. Stephen
Wood was hearing 3920 at 0145 UT Jan 11, so besides radiating all these
harmonix, it`s probably not observing day/night power cut either from 1000 to
43 watts (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic carriers all over the place, UT Jan 13 at 0233 UT,
first noticed on 1521, then stepping 9 kHz down the entire band, found more:
1215, 1089, 1008, 945, 909, 882, 864, 855, 837, 747, 693, 684, 675, 612, 603,
594, 531. 693 was strongest but not enough for any audio. No doubt some others
were obscured by TVI from the neighbors.
Another check at 0640: 1089, 1215; and at 0642-0647: 675, 684, 693, 738, 747,
774, 855, 882, 909, 945, 1044, 1557.
And standing out with a higher-pitched het against the BFO was 1314+ at 0642.
Is some European significantly off-frequency there? Not as of last August
according to
http://www.myradiobase.de/mediumwave/mwoffset.txt
Possibly a local spoiler (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 14653.5-SSB, Jan 13 at 1344, 2-way in Spanish mentioning kilos
and vuelos, apparently narco flight communications (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** AUSTRALIA. 15515, Jan 13 at 0309, RA in its most token language, French,
interrupted by clips of someone speaking OzEnglish; fair signal. This is
scheduled M-F 0300-0315 only (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BOTSWANA. 15580, Sunday Jan 13 at 2135, ``Tennessee Waltz`` by the late
``Patti Page``, outro by ``Mary Morningstar`` on `Country Hits USA` from VOA
Music Mix. Really broken up signal, by trans-equatorial propagation, so bad I
suspected the transmission was also defective, but not sure. Off at 2200*
without ID or VOA sign-off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. Sounds like the ``elevated noise floor`` is back tonight --- not
very strong yet at 2310 Jan 13. 11780 is again a blob of distorted noise
instead of RNB, and the noise floor is most obvious underneath signals of a
certain strength, WYFR on 11565 and NHK on 11665, sort of like QRDRM. Tuning
with BFO, one can hear a constant swish and multiple carriers in the range
below 11780. What do others hear?
Gilles Letourneau in Montreal was getting this too again like last night, as
was Don Moman in Alberta. My recheck at 0305 UT Jan 14: still audibly higher
noise level roughly 11.3-12.0 MHz, tapering off gradually, and audible under
the medium RHC signal on 11680, but not under the strong RHC on 11760. And
still there at 0421. And at 0513, severely QRMing, among others the weakish
signal from New Zealand on 11725, but not the strong signal from Japan via
Guiana French 11740.
I continue to strongly suspect source is the 11780 RNB transmitter, very out of
order, since it is normally strong when nothing else is on 25m, but is not
audible in AM again tonight, instead a noise peak there. While the noise
stopped at 0441 UT the night before, it could well last all night just like the
normal schedule of 11780 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUIANA FRENCH. 5960, Jan 14 at 0352, no spurs audible from the NHK Japanese
relay. Had not looked for them in quite a while. They were circa 5844, 6076 =
plus/minus 116 kHz; 5926 and 5994 = plus/minus 34 kHz, among others. Also
checked 11740, which has put out a different spurset during some NHK relays in
English at 0500, but could not hear any Jan 14, altho the wideband noise
probably from Brasil might have obscured them (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** MEXICO. Channel A2 NTSC, Jan 14 at 0029 UT, brief fade-in of some weak video
with antenna south, after monitoring snow for some hours. 0121, another fade-in
now with two or more signals CCI, but soon gone. 6m ham Es maps showed a bit of
activity over the SW quadrant of the USA into the Mexican border area (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 15067.6-AM, Jan 13 at 2140 UT, weak rock music, must be
pirate, very poor, peaking S8 with fades. 2143 sends in Morse code CZ over and
over (first thought it was going to be a CQ, but one dit/dah different). Then
quick announcement by YL voice, sounds like Japanese, can`t copy it; plays
Doors` ``Touch Me``. 2147, ID by OM as ``Channel Z radio, broadcasting from
North America. If you can hear us, write to us at [email protected]`` and
another Japanese(?) announcement; 2148 ``Frankenstein``, by Edgar Winters
Group? After that faded out completely or off the air. About it at:
http://www.hfunderground.com/wiki/Channel_Z_Radio
``Long distance DX tests were carried out on 15067 kHz using an LU8EHA
transmitter design. This transmitter is a Class E design and produces 18 watts
of carrier. These transmissions were heard in Europe and the USA.``
An e-mail reply was soon received in less than an hour:
``Hi Glenn, Really glad to hear that you heard the broadcast today. Yes, the YL
ID was Japanese; this was a show that I created about a year ago when Hari
Kujala in Finland arranged a big pirate DX weekend. I was very lucky as a
Japanese DXer did receive that broadcast (on 11428 kHz). You can see and hear
the reception for yourself here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMcSDHg7_eI
You heard the same show, on the same transmitter, a homebrewed 18 watt Class E
variant of a design by LU8EHA. Today's broadcast wasn't targeted to a specific
area; it was to test out my 19 meter dipole. I have a backlog of QSL requests;
I hope to have it in the mail within a week. 73's Z`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 15440, Jan 13 at 2200-2210, via WYFR, RTI English with news; has lite
crackling sound again like yesterday, not too disruptive and you might overlook
it, but something is wrong with this frequency unlike // 6115. Dan Elyea at
Okeechobee is going to check it out.
6115, however, had some weak CCI under, which per HFCC would be either R.
Veritas Asia, Philippines in Chinese northward, or CRI Beijing site in French
northwestward (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
