** ANTARCTICA. 15476, July 10 at 1940, tnx to Dave Hughes tip, the Twente,
Netherlands remote receiver is picking up LRA36 better than usual. Looks like
the signal meter is showing peaks of about -72 dBm, with music, 1943 & 1950
announcements but still cannot make them out, fading down by 2000 (Glenn
Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BOLIVIA. 4957.9, July 11 at 0054, JBA carrier, suspected Rdif. Tr?pico,
Trinidad as heard in South America, reactivated. Also on same July 12 at 0056,
maybe trace of modulation (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 4915, July 11 at 0056, JBA carrier, much weaker than e.g. 4925, so
presumably not R. Daqui, and maybe R. Macap? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CANADA. Channel A2 NTSC, July 11 at 1908 UT tune-in, `Dr. Phil`, some CCI;
1910 CTV logo, ``a Division of Bell Media``. Matches TV G Guide cable listings
for Sault Ste-Marie and Wiarton Ont, at 3 pm EDT weekdays, but probably CHBX
again from the former; yet to be absolutely confirmed that CKCO-TV-2 in Wiarton
is still on the analog air. There may have been a lot more sporadic-E earlier
and/or later this afternoon, but did not have time to stay with it. A few chex
of FM unproductive (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA [and non]. Firedrake July 12 before 1300:
13795, July 12 at 1247, fair
And NO CNR1 jammers audible 12-18 MHz; hardly anything above 16 MHz, already a
sesquihour after sunrise here, and little on 15 MHz: weak signals into Korea on
15775 and out of Korea on 15575 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 11760, July 10 at 1910, I notice that the first RHC English hour of
the day is just barely modulated (JBM) altho the signal level is fairly good.
11840, July 11 at 0459, NA at sign-off, rather distorted modulation; // 11760
is already off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MALAYSIA. 9835, July 12 at 1259, RTM romantic music until two-pip timesignal
at 1300, way late, by maybe 8 seconds, but I was not watching my watch to time
it exactly. Another one to pin down and see if it varies or slips. Tried 11665
during the talk/news on the hour, and seemed // but too weak to be positive,
maybe not synchronized. Definitely diverged at 1305 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 540, July 12 at 0528 UT, music but as expected in less than a
minute, ID for ``Ahora en 90.5 FM, con 5 mil watts, La Ranchera de Paquime``,
i.e. its doomed original AM outlet, not even worth mentioning, per Cant?:
540 XETX La Ranchera de Paquim? + FM 90.5 Nuevo Casas Grandes, Chih. 1,000 250
Also as usual, this listed 250-watter is the dominant 540 signal, not the
alleged 150,000 watt XEWA in SLP, altho with XETX nulled there is something
else weaker, maybe it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. Channel A2 NTSC, July 11 at 2359 UT, a bit of a novela in Spanish
peaking from the southwest; nothing further (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** NEWFOUNDLAND. 5649, July 12 at 0521, too-brief aero communications in AM
mode instead of SSB; selcall tones; ATC says ``BPC, go``; 0523 Gander
mentioned, so presumably thence; this listing of MWARA frequencies
http://www.canairradio.com/hf.html
shows 5649 for Gander, Iceland and Shanwick [Shannon/Gatwick] (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 5980, July 11 at 0052, R. Chaski usual very weak carrier, until cut
off at 0104:56*; also July 12 at 0059-0105:02* (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** TUNISIA. 7275, July 12 at 0515, IWT is gone again, not even a carrier;
lately the signal and modulation had been so poor that it was of no use anyway.
Companions 7230 & 7285 RSA, 7295 Algeria via France are still audible (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1677 monitoring: first airing confirmed on
WRMI webcast, UT Thursday July 11 at 0330; and very poor vs jamming at 0357
check on 9955; tnx a lot, Arnie! Also confirmed Thursday July 11 at 2100.5 on
WTWW-1 9479, usual very strong signal here. And confirmed on WWRB webcast,
presumably also 5050, UT Friday July 12 again starting quite early at 0326,
after a Dave ID and brief pause. 1677 or previous 1676 could also appear
anytime, anyday between 17 and 24 on 9930, 00 and 01 on 5085.
Next: new fixed time on Area 51 via WBCQ 5110v-CUSB: UT Saturday 0200; on HLR
7265-CUSB Germany: Sat 0630 & 1430; on WRMI 9955: Sat 1500 & 1730; on WTWW-2
9930: Sat & Sun 2329v; on WTWW-1 5830: UT Sun 0400.5; on HLR 15785-CUSB test:
Sun 0730, 1030, 1430, 1830 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 11635, July 11 at 0458, fair signal with gospel huxter in English, so
WHRI must be active here on Thursday as well as Saturday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

Hi Glenn,
The new program that was supposed to start this week Monday through
Friday eastern time 8-9 pm on 5110 has delayed its premier until
Monday, July 15. So, we'll be reverting back to UT Saturday 0130 variable
for World of Radio for this week. Assuming the new show starts, WOR
will be at 0200 next week.
Regards, Lw (Larry Will, Area 51, WBCQ, July 12, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

CANADA 6159.969 CKZN St. Johns, "CBC Radio One" program stronger on the
east coast in Massachusetts.
6159.978 ... 979 CKZU Vancouver - more power on the west coast at Mojave
Desert CA, and most powerful close-by Vancouver at Bainbridge Isl. WA state
remote installation. Measured against RHC, WWCR, RA, RNZi stations in 49 mb.
Now at 2320 UT July 12, only a single program is visible, only 6159.959 kHz
at remote SDR unit at Toronto.
Re: 6160v CKZN / CKZU. Now at 0030 til 0120 UT July 13:
6159.959 CKZN, radioplay til 0058 UT, S=7 in NY and Toronto area, in peaks
S=8, Stephen Quinn in the studio.
6159.979 I switched to western coast remote unit at around 0100 UT. Advts
at 0059-0100 UT "As it happens" start at 0130 UT. CKZU Vancouver S=9+15dB
signal on Washington state / Isl Pacific coast, close to it at CA. Traffic
news, followed CBC nx read by Martina Fitzgerald.
Quick remaining Toronto / NY east coast / WA state Pacific coast 49 mb
log at 0030-0115 UT
5830.003 0030 UT WTWN{sic, poor handwriting} S=9+25dB -
GH: WTWW = Just remember the slogan "We Transmit World Wide"
5909.908 0035 UT HJDH Alcarav?n R, Lomalinda, Puerto Lleras, Meta, CLM
5920 even WHRI very strong S=9+50dB
5935 even WWCR S=9+25 - 30 dB
5939.872 tentat. Voz Missionaria, Cambori?, SC, BRA
5952.443 tent R P?o XII, Siglo XX, Llallagua, Potosi, Sp from BOL,
frequ wandered up and down.
5990 even CRI via Cuba S=9+30dB strength
6020 even CRI Cerrik Albania, wonderful transatlantic signal, S=9+30dB

which has a bigsig. Never hear anything from Aparecida here.
6154.923 R Fides, La Paz, BOL, S=5-6 poor signal at 0115 UT
6180.004 R Nac de Brasilia, phone in program by male anncr,
female on the phone in Port, 0120 UT JUly 13.
GH: Wolfy,
At five hours before sunset in Vancouver, you are not going to be
hearing/seeing CKZU on US remotes unless they are close to it. Did that
include the one on Bainbridge Island WA? And on that you would not be
getting CKZN.
[later] As It Happens is at 6:30-7:30 pm local time, followed by As It
Happened -- archive edition at 7:30 pm. This fits for Vancouver scheduling:
6:30 pm = 0130 UT, not Newfoundland. Were you really hearing this on a west
coast receiver?
Glenn
WB: Thanks Glenn, excuse, in deep night - when sleepy - it is not easy for
European ears to be familiar with reality and entries in the various radio
channel tables.
