** CHINA. 9355, Jan 12 at 2056, Firedrake fair-good, much better than on 9455,
very poor; both against Radio Free Asia via Saipan.
11945, Jan 13 at 1504, Firedrake is fair with flutter, vs RFA Chinese via
Tajikistan.
9315, Jan 13 at 1441, Firedrake is good here. Still no target in Aoki, but HFCC
shows VOA Tibetan via Thailand.
6145, Jan 13 at 1442, Firedrake fair, 1534 poor. Still no target in HFCC, since
it`s Taiwan, banned by the ChiCom from HFCC, but in Aoki.
With all this FD already, I take the time circa 1445-1450 to do a full
out-of-bandscan for more, or CNR1 jamming, but find none in the 7s, 8s, 10s,
11s, 12s, 13s or 14s (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 13780, Jan 13 at 1525, RHC is very strong but with IADs and
spur-spikes out to plus/minus 20 kHz.
At 1530, I compare all the RHC frequencies and find two groups, an echo apart
from each other, ergo from two different transmitter sites:
9540, 12010, 17580, synchronized with each other,
not synchronized with:
11760, 11860, 13780, 15230, 15340, 17730, synchronized with each other (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EQUATORIAL GUINEA [non]. 17790, Jan 13 at 1420, open carrier/dead air from
R. Africa via WRMI. At 1432, a YL preachess starts with good-morning from a
Miami address; sounds off-mic and/or in echoey chamber, talking about Right to
Choose. 17790 supposed to switch to 15190 at 2000, but at 2037 there is no
signal; at 2051 now on, and in French, good signal but undermodulated, and
still no Bata. It seems that Okeechobee is too remote for good local internet
access, for all these different program feeds, also messing up PCJ on Sunday,
but that`s being replaced with microwave. How about satellite? (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** IRAN. 12015, Jan 13 at 1425, Qur`an with pauses, flutter, and no RTTY aside
RHC on new 12010; 1430 in S Asian language. MO fits IRIB, now getting mandatory
opening Q out of way before the hour or semi-hour. Aoki shows VIRI Hindi at
1420-1520, 500 kW, 102 degrees via Sirjan (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** KURDISTAN [non]. 11995, fair Jan 13 at 1433, news about Baghdad, Kurdistan.
It`s VOA Kurdish via Lampertheim, GERMANY (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 1700, Jan 13 at 0659 UT, Mexican NA, choral version, dominating E/W,
but I might not have noticed XEPE with just more sports talk nonsense in
English mixed vs different sports nets from Brownsville and Des Moines to the
N/S. 0700 English ID as ``ESPN Radio 1700``; did not hear any call letters in
any language, but maybe they were swallowed. It`s 10/10 kW from Tecate BCN;
studios in San Diego, Alta California Sur (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 6185, Jan 12 at 2058, carrier with poor signal, no modulation
detectable, but presumed XEPPM on the air during daytime contrary to known
schedule (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 1580, Jan 12 at 2104 UT, just noise on the carrier from KOKB
Blackwell, maybe dead/open STL, whilst sibling stations 1020 KOKP Perry and
105.1 KOSB Perry (originating in Stillwater) are nominal. Not unusual for
something to go wrong with 1580 or 1020, unmanned? Such as dead air for hours
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. FCC News: Ringwood, 104.9, KEUC, New Class A station
signs on with 400 W-H/78 m at 36-23-19/98-18-00 (Jan WTFDA VHF-UHF
Digest via DXLD)
Ringwood is not far from Enid, but I haven`t noticed it. So Jan 12 at 2105 UT I
try to hear it. Manipulating the DX-398 whip, there is a weak signal at certain
positions against stronger 105.1 KOSB Perry; rap music in stereo, with a very
heavy bass beat --- almost sounds like a transmitter fault, but stays with the
music. 2108 ``Wild 104 - 9``. Don`t know this station so search on the
frequency and slogan in the WTFDA FM Database, which leads right to KKWD,
Bethany OK, 6 kW H & V, 100m H & V, has HD, PI Code 8FFO, PS info WWLSFM,
Radiotext Artist/Title, Slogan WILD 104.9, Format Rhythmic-CHR. ``Rhythmic``
must mean that awful bass beat. They don`t say ``point``, just pause between
104 and 9. Bethany is a westburb of OKC, a lot further than Ringwood from here,
but about what you would expect at that distance with those facilities. (And it
so happens there is one other ``Wild 104.9``, KBWX in Columbia IL, per WTFDA,
surely not the one I am getting) (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 88.3, Jan 12 at 2109, I note that Family Radio satellator in Enid,
K202BY, is back on the air, including stereo pilot with a young Harold Camping
preaching, belying his current status. Later the signal seemed to be breaking
up again, so hope for another failure opening up the channel for MS or other DX

** SAUDI ARABIA. 17660, Jan 13 at 1421, open carrier/dead air with flutter, no
doubt BSKSA French service which is 500 kW due west from Riyadh for North
Africa. By 1454, now there is some music modulation, poor with flutter; while
Arabic frequencies from same site, 17615 and 17705 are always better and
without flutter, 190 and 310 degrees respectively (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOUTH CAROLINA [and non]. 17610, Jan 13 at 2036, Brother Scare VG here on
new WHRI frequency and also on weaker 9840. This contradicts the sked I first
copied from WHR website on Jan 11 showing 17610 M-F at 1800-2030. Now it`s
1800-2100. 9840 among other times, during the 20-21 hour is also M-F only;
Angels 1 & 2.
So that makes SIX frequencies and five stations at once on 31m during this
hour, along with: 9370-WWRB, 9690-WRMI, 9930-WTWW, 9955-WRMI, 9980-WWCR. Plus
two more WRMIs: 7730 very poor, 11825 very good (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1703 monitoring: confirmed at new time shortly after
0400 UT Monday Jan 13 on Area 51 webcast, and also sufficient at 0427 check on
5110v-CUSB. WBCQ 5110 schedule
http://schedule.wbcq.com/main.php?fn=sked&freq=5110
still doesn`t show WOR then, nor Brother Scare overnight on UT Monday, as
audible at 0648 check. Heard at 0358 tune-in before WOR, Allan Maxwell monolog
was signing off. This website
http://www.worldmicroscope.com/
is much more accurate insofar as Area 51 content which varies from week to
week; on UT Jan 13, KIPM at 03-04 & 0430-0500.
Next WOR times: Tuesday 1200 on WRMI 9955; Wednesday 0730 & 1530 on HLR
7265-CUSB (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
