** AUSTRALIA [and non]. 15340, August 20 at 1255, HCJB with usual good signal
(long path? Aimed 307 degrees from Kununurra), closing Tuesday-only Marawari
language per EiBi & Aoki, with P O Box address starting with ``Radio DMTA`` or
similar letters fonetikaly ? is that how you say ``HCJB`` in Marawari? RHC CCI
cuts on at *1256 with even stronger signal overriding it.
Mis-registration in HFCC would have us believe that the 1245-1300 segment is on
air Sundays only in ``mal``. Aoki & EiBi show several other languages filling
other days, and EiBi`s readme says ``MW = Marwari [sic] (a Rajasthani variety):
India (13 million speakers)``. Spelling of it: WRTH goes with Marawari (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BANGLADESH. 15505, August 20 at 1358, BB IS poorly audible, timesignal
ending at 1410:03, opening Urdu; recheck 1409 mainly hum is audible (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake, August 20 after 1300:
17535, fair at 1308, still going past 1330, 1337 but fading to very poor; no
target audible or listed. Maybe an IBB Tibetan service jumped to this frequency
today? BSKSA Qur`an service is listed on 17535 at 12-14, but no sign of it
either. Strange. Tried to // 13795 where FD usually shows but today only a JBA
carrier, talk?
CNR1 jammers, August 20 after 1300:
17510, fair at 1308; vs BBC Uzbek via OMAN, unheard (BTW, EiBi shows target for
this service at 1300-1330 on all three frequencies is Afghanistan; HFCC lists
CIRAF 30-S and 40-NE --- these two cover all the ex-SSR `stans as well as
Afghanistan). None in the 18s, 16s
15565, poor at 1311, het on lo side
15640, poor at 1311, het on hi side, both vs V of Tibet, Tajikistan
15330, good at 1311, vs BBC Uzbek via Oman, unheard
15115, good at 1312, with heavy CCI from victim VOA Chinese via Thailand at 14
degrees further aimed USward; none in the 14s, 13s, 12s
August 20 after 1400:
15570, good at 1410, probably vs V. of Tibet on 15568, unheard
(very little signal today from KBS 15575 before or after 1400)
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EGYPT. 13850, August 20 at 0525, R. Cairo provides only a big buzz, no
Arabic program modulation; but at least it`s the second SSOB after 13630
Australia (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** IRAN. 17660, August 20 at 0528, VIRI IS, poor signal but the SSOB prior to
the ``Bosnian`` broadcast via Kamalabad. The 0500 Russian broadcast was also
audible on 13750 and 15480 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 5980, August 20 at 0100, JBA carrier with BFO from R. Chaski, enough
to detect when it cuts off: 0101:52.5* which is 16 seconds later than three
days ago, keeping up the average of five and a third per day. I am avoiding the
mosquitoey porch where I would prefer to be on the DX-398, instead inside on
the FRG-7 but with external longwire (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SUDAN [and non]. 15400, August 20 at 0527, 1 kHz tone jammer is more atop R.
Dabanga than usual via MADAGASCAR. It`s always there, since first discovered
weeks ago, but not relogged constantly. I wonder how blocky it is in the target
area (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5110-CUSB, August 20 at 0059, WBCQ already on as Allan is on phone
line with someone, mentioning that someone`s wife has died, but missed whose,
0100 into `Heart & Soul` scheduled show (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VATICAN. 7250, August 20 at 0520, poor signal from VR, in presumed Albanian
as now scheduled to be only on MW; they do this from time to time, turning on
this transmitter early; and sometimes plugged into different service in English
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 4865, August 20 at 0516, TADIL-A bonker as usual around here;
checking since there had been a couple reports at other times of very strong
open carrier on 4865 or 4866, US broadcaster testing? Maybe it was really the
same TADIL-A transmitter in idle mode not cutting on and off. This is
apparently the one which moved off the low side of 6135 several months ago
