** CUBA. 13780, Feb 18 at 1435, RHC talk modulation is breaking up, but not the
musical intervals. So problem is in the mike cord now? Wiggle it (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA NORTH [non]. 9775, Feb 18 at 1344, R. Free Chosun via transmitter of
R. Veritas Asia, Palauig, PHILIPPINES, is already on well before nominal *1400,
with love-song pr?lude in English: now it`s a duet between the YM and YL, still
unrecognized as to title. Good signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENINIG DIGEST)
** MALAYSIA. 9835, Feb 18 at 1347, Malay talk in a noisy venue, fair signal,
which is better than usual. That would be Sarawak FM relay back to Borneo,
which is totally in Malay per WRTH 2014.
11665, Feb 18 at 1354, music on VP signal, presumed also RTM back to Sarawak;
1402 news in American English about Pakistan, Thailand, Central African
Republic; 1405 YL speaking, ad? Not sure if still in English, but surprised to
hear any English, so was this really Wai FM? WRTH shows no English on that
station, but Bidayuh at 1000-1600 and other times, also in Kayan/Kenyah.
English is normally limited to the Traxx FM network, which we never hear on
7295 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U K [non]. 21630, Tuesday Feb 18 at 1418, very poor signal from BBC
ASCENSION in Hausa, but still QRM-free, as Spain has managed to stay off 21630
for a second week, even on weekdays, instead on 21640 where it claimed to
broadcast for months before axually doing so, except on weekends when there was
also WHRI to avoid later (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 13270-USB, Feb 18 at 1412, NY Radio is JBA, but enough to make out
``Washington-Dulles: missing``. It doesn`t take much signal to detect the
repetitive ``missing`` cadences. So this outage is now at least in its fifth
consecutive day. Blame the snowy weather? Hardly any excuse for international
flight weather info which is surely collected at all major airports, just can`t
make it onto WSY70 due to extreme overreliance on/inattention to, automation
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12105, Feb 18 at 1353, WTWW-3 is already on in Russian. Considerable
CCI from IBB Saipan in Burmese, scheduled 1230-1430. WTWW webcast in Russian
nominally starts at 1200, but 12105 normally does not come on until 1400 if at
all. The other two are still on night frequencies before 1400: 5085 and 5830.
Axually, 12105 was apparently on all-night this date, as sometimes happens, per
monitoring by Ivo Ivanov in Bulgaria: 05-06 Portuguese, 06-09 Yoruba, 09-12
Chinese, 12-14 Russian. HFCC shows KTWR also in Chinese on 12105 at 1115-1200!
George McClintock explained to me early UT Feb 18 that the outages on #2
transmitter were mostly caused by the extremely cold weather, and the
water-cooling system freezing up. Driver on #1 gave out after almost three
years, and has been replaced. Both those are water-cooled Continentals. Should
be fewer interruptions now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 12450, Feb 18 at 1425-1432, I am all set to have another try at
the weak signal I heard yesterday, suspected Democratic Voice of Burma, 2 x
6225 as scheduled 1430-1530 via Tajikistan --- but, no signal at all today, nor
on 6225. Eurasians ought to be able to hear both if this recur (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 17705, Feb 18 just as I tune across at 1456* big open carrier
goes off, uncovering weak Saudi Arabia. Suspect it`s a tune- up by WHRI which
will turn 17705 back on later for Brother Scare disservice (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
