** BOLIVIA. 4717, Feb 3 at 0056, JBA carrier at first, but a bit more here than on Peru`s 4747, 4835, etc. A poor Andean evening. But at 0111, 4717 has improved with some music audible from R. Yatun Ayllu Yura, Yura.
6134.8, Feb 3 at 0105, no signal from R. Santa Cruz, off early? Normally propagates much better than the 60m signals, which were weakened tonight (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BULGARIA. 9450, UT Sunday Feb 3 at 0051 check, Mighty KBC`s weekly broadcast has good signal, just far enough from the circa 9454 Guiana French spurblob (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** EAST TURKISTAN [and non]. 9420, Feb 3 at 0114, Voice of Greece has very strong CCI also causing a SAH, at least equal level from CRI English, // 9570 relay; 0115 ``News and reports from CRI``; also on // 9410 much weaker CRI but in the clear with no BBC or Turkey during this hour. Both are via Kashgar, says HFCC, with 9420 100 kW at 174 degrees, which you would think would be weaker than 9410, 500 kW, 308 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** PERU. 5980, Feb 3 at 0058, yet another try at R. Chaski: mixture of Chinese jammer atop weak music; 0100 timesignal and China off, then music is JBA, too poor to copy anything but again I retune with BFO before 0105 to time when they cut the carrier: 0105:11*, another few sex later than the night before (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also BOLIVIA ** U S A. 2660, Feb 3 at 0106 UT, black gospel music in surprisingly well, same format as heard on KGLD around sunrise. Is in cycle of slow fades up and out; another peak at 0109; 0110 segué to another tune. 0119 another fade-in, and I am not hearing a second carrier tonight. Make a point of rechecking before hourtop, 0158 now the music is accompanied by talking, and at hourtop bare-bones legal ID caught for the first time on 2660! ``KGLD, 1330 AM, Tyler``, same as I had heard on a previous webcast check. So now this Texan second harmonic is 100% sure. ID overrode the music program for a few seconds, then that continued. Also at 0158 I noticed some weak CW QRM to this for the first time, on the low side. See my previous reports about KGLD power authorizations: supposed to be 77 watts at night on 1330, altho also with a PSSA of 36 watts until 0200, but the full day power available is 1000 watts (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 9305.1-CUSB, Feb 3 at 0052, spur from WBCQ 9330v-CUSB; quite readable; but unheard at 0117 recheck, or anywhere in the vicinity. Maybe the fundamental had faded below threshold for spurring, tho still sufficient on 9330. Remember that Jan 27 at 1316 I had a spur from this on 9313. In neither case could a matching one on the hi side be found (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 5050, Feb 3 at 0057, and still at 0458, WWRB is back on this channel, having been missing for several nights, including UT Friday during WORLD OF RADIO, just 3195 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1654 monitoring: confirmed on WTWW-1, 5830, UT Sunday Feb 3 at 0500. This time, instead of starting WOR early and then interrupting for the local ID. SFAW programming continued until 0500 sharp, then ID, but then joining WOR already in progress at 0500:17 or so. Well, that`s some improvement. Next: Sunday 0900, 1600, Monday 0530, Tuesday 1200 on WRMI 9955, Wednesday 0630 & 1630 on Hamburger Lokalradio 7265-CUSB (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 5085, Feb 3 at 0057 check, WTWW-2 is still missing, no Saturday night show from Ted Randall et al. (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. 3325, Feb 3 at 0102, surprised to hear weak signal in English: not sure whether this one is a transmitted mixing product or a receiver image on the DX-398, but no match on 3185, 3195, 3215 or 5830 at least (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ _______________________________________________ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.
