Hello to all,
Radio HCJB Germany now uses 7365 kHz (41m) as second frequency, at the
moment with very low power (100 Watt) from Weenermoor, northwest of germany
using a 1/1/0.3 directional antenna directed to the southeast. The
programming is the same as on 3955 kHz (75m).
Reception reports are - as always - welcome.

73 + 55,
Stephan

** ANTARCTICA. 15476, Sept 2 at 1925, a JBA carrier on this frequency, DX-398
and shortwire on the porch, presumably LRA36 which others have reported lately
with an improved signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** AUSTRALIA [and non]. 6150, Tuesday Sept 3 at 1233, RA with `Future Tense`,
same episode about steampunk as already heard on prepeat Friday Aug 30 at same
time --- and no CubaRM, second day in a row without it.
19000, Sept 4 at 0104, news ending ``from the Melbourne studios of Radio
Australia`` and into `Asia-Pacific` presented by the Vietnamese guy who kept a
job in the English service. In our mornings the news on RA has been from Radio
National or the TV network, so we were wondering if anything still comes out of
Melbourne; for now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 11855, Sept 4 at 0100:36.5, seemingly precise timesignal is not at
all from R. Aparecida, ending that late after the hour. Then takes a full
minute to list all(?) their affiliates around the country, including several
named R?dio Educadora (whose ``educational`` agenda is surely skewed by RCC
doctrine), and into `Com a M?e Aparecida` show, as the new transmitter of
ZYE954 continues to perform well, quite stronger than neighbor 11815 RBC. Got
to be more than 1 kW now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. 6150, Sept 3 at 1233, no RHC CCI to Australia for second day
in a row, formerly on to 1300v; can it be intentional? Not replaced by any
other 49m frequency to be heard.
17580, Sept 3 at 1309 open carrier dead air from RHC, so I leave a receiver on
here while at breakfast, etc.; modulation finally starts about 1402 after
wasting at least an hour of vital electrical fluid and the resources it took to
generate it.
I have been mildly curious how RHC would play the Diana Nyad story, but can`t
justify listening to an entire English or Spanish newscast replete with snotty
anti-American propaganda. Avoid screaming by not hearing another word about Los
5. I do find an apolitical, seemingly faxual story here:
http://www.radiohc.cu/noticias/deportes/41181-luego-de-travesia-a-nado-entre-cuba-y-la-florida-nyad-dice-adios-al-oceano.html
First I`d heard she is headed for Moore OK. She has proven another way for the
highly motivated to escape from Cuba, but obviously had co?peration of the
r?gime in letting her and her team in and out; did the USG approve as well? I
hope she had her travel documents waterproofed upon her. Reverse route probably
ruled out not by politix but by the Gulf Stream (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** EAST TURKISTAN [and non]. 6075, Sept 4 at 0052, something with pop music not
a mystery for long as I then hear the same on 6020, i.e. CRI English via
Albania. 6075 is 174 degrees from Kashgar during this hour only, grayline as
sun sets here at 0056, now accelerating to 10 minutes earlier per week as we
close in on equinox.
7240, Sept 4 at 0108, very poor signal in uncertain language with music bits.
HFCC and Aoki show CRI in Urdu via Kashgar. Hard to believe the ChiCom would
also run PBS Xizang/Tibet at same time as in Aoki (Glenn Hauser, oK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** GREECE. 15630, // stronger 9420 // weaker 7450, Sept 4 at 0107 with pop
music from ERT or EDT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** IRAN. 15300, Sept 3 at 1306 Qur`an, poor signal with flutter. Must be VIRI`s
Urdu service via Kamalabad. No sign of RFI from RFI, also scheduled here in
sesquihour overlap, but flagged in HFCC as `Spezial`, i.e. optional extension
of the regular broadcast in French until 1300. VIRI // is 15400 via Sirjan, but
not audible there where it used to collide with HCJB before they moved. 1311
into talk (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 5980, Sept 4 at 0050, R. Chaski carrier with some modulation, until
cutoff at 0103:12.5*, which is 16 seconds later than 72 hours earlier, i.e. 5
and a third later per day (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** RWANDA. 11805, Sept 2 at 1931, poor signal seemed Spanish, but it must have
been Portuguese as scheduled, DW at 210 degrees from Kigali, i.e. for Angola
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SERBIA [non]. 9685, Sept 4 at 0053, still AWOL is International Radio
Serbia, English to North America, without apology or explanation. Have you
written to them yet? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN [non]. 9600-9630-9660, Sept 4 at 0100, REE DRM is off the air,
clearing among others its direct frequency 9620 from QRDRM. Quickly checked
11815, the other DRM channel and it`s off too, but supposed to close at 0100
instead of 0200 for ``9630`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TIBET [non]. 17730, Sept 4 at 0105, poor signal in Chinese, i.e. CNR1 jammer
against RFA in Tibetan via veiled site Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, as in Aoki;
transmission and jamming absent from HFCC as both sides pretend neither exists
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9860, Sept 4 at 0056, big open carrier from WHRI about to start, and
with it a buzz which tapers out to as far as plus/minus 15 kHz. This could be a
problem for Tirana 9850 at 0130 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
