Retro Radio Series Popular
__________________________
You know, 1953 was a really big year. Baby boomers bounced into the
world, the Korean War ended and the Cold War started....and it's
proving a popular year for our new series Retro Radio.
Instead of looking way way back into the 1920's and 1930's, this
series features a time familiar to many people today, and already the
#1 feature at www.radioheritage.net so far in 2014 is Retro Radio
Japan 1953, followed within the Top 10 features by Retro Radio
Australia, New Zealand Pacific 1953....so come and have a look at the
radio stations that ruled the airwaves just over 60 years ago.
You'll find Brazil, Iron Curtain Europe, Nordic Europe, Canada,
Caribbean, Africa, Middle East/Central Asia and many
others..............and for some even more recent memories, Retro
Radio Hawaii 1961, Idaho 1963 and Texas 1963.
Enjoy them all today, and see the top books, music and movies of 1953
as well, so you can get a good feel for what life was like listening
to the radio in those exciting times.

UNKNOWN SITE 15721 kHz station was around 0400-0415 UT March 21 on air.
Came across of a Russian language 5-digit number station on JPN and AUS
remote posts, obviously from the Asian Far East, not Moscow or WeEUR area.
0400-0403 UT string of
4-1-0
?etyre odin nol

Indonesia, 4750.014, RRI Makassar, 1000-1045, Noted a tune in just a hint of
audio with persons
in comments. However, could not distinguish any details. At 1016 the Quran
is presented for
almost 5 minutes. This is followed with a female in comments probably
speaking Indonesian.
At 1028 music until 1040 as male is noted in comments which could be news.
At 1045 music
presented. Overall the signal was poor, but improved from a threshold to a
poor during the
period. (Chuck Bolland, March 21, 2014)

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
** BANGLADESH. 15505, March 21 at 1357, Bangladesh Betar with tone, 1358 IS,
mistimesignal ending 2 seconds earlier than 1400:00; very poor with flutter
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL [and non]. 5999.6, March 21 at 0520, RHC again has het to 6000,
presumed 4 kW Bras?lia transmitter of RNB; meanwhile, ``Ed Newman`` was for the
umpteenth time misrepresenting RHC`s streaming as ``Real Audio``, maybe
treating it as a generic name for any format (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CHINA. 15545, March 21 at 1508, CNR1 jammer, good with flutter, slight ACI
from presumed target during this semihour only, VOA Uzbek via Sri Lanka, as the
ChiCom interfere in the internal affairs of Uzbekistan; strong enough to bother
15550-USB WJHR. No search for other CNR1/FD jammers this morning (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COLOMBIA. 5910, March 21 at 0522, Alcarav?n Radio back to nice music,
rendition of `El Condor Pasa`, fair signal, no QRM. Altho Puerto Lleras is in
the lowlands, beyond the Andes (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 5025 & 5040, March 21 at 0103, both R. Rebelde and RHC tropical
frequencies are back on simultaneously, so the resumed share-time arrangement
Ivo Ivanov reported March 18 and I mentioned on WOR 1713 did not last long. Now
Rebelde sounds like a SBG; both still on at next check 0520 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST) see BRAZIL
** INDIA [and non]. 11985, March 21 at 0116.5, AIR Delhi/Khampur is still on
the air post-Sinhala service until 0115: big humwhine atop JBM music. I suppose
the rest of the transmission from 0045 also sounded like this. // 11740 Goa is
properly off the air. There was another report of 11985 running overtime, until
0129* March 6, by Jim Evans, TN, NASWA Flashsheet. More slipshod operation by
AIR, not ready for prime time. (And 11905 SLBC just started at 0115, good with
flutter) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 650, March 21 at 1314 UT, XETNT Los Mochis is still propagating
during `F?rmula Noticias`, 6:15 TC as still on UT -7 in Sinaloa until April 6;
1316 promos for F?rmula Noticias with Radio 65 ID (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 6185-, March 21 at 0524, XEPPM is mostly dead air, bits of distorted
audio bursts, scratching noises, obviously problem with program feed, as
modulation is supposed to last until 0600. Also at 1513 March 21 in full
daytime, carrier still on the lo side of 6185, but cannot make out any audio
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OMAN. 15140, March 21 at 0109 Qur`an, still fair signal registering 32-47 dB
on the PL-880, as RSO has missed *two* frequency changes this time: 15140 to
15355 at 2200, 15355 to 9500 at 0000 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU [and non]. 5980, March 21 at 0103, R. Chaski, Urubamba, with hymn; not
much CCI this time from BBC/UAE. The hymn is cut off the air at 0105:58* which
is 17 seconds later than last log a trinite ago (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** RUSSIA. 25900, March 21 at 1407, it`s another Friday morning, so another try
for the 400-watt student station in Moscow, Radio Magic Eye. On the FRG-7 I am
getting a JBA carrier slightly on the lo side compared to weak signals on
11900, 9900 and 900 (none of which are exactly the same offset either).
Signal no better by 1446, so I move to the porch with PL-880 and DX-398. Now I
am axually hearing some music on a very weak, choppy signal. PL-880 is better
with short reel-out wire than DX-398 with longer wire around eaves which gets
higher line noise level. BUT, the PL-880 is much more subject to
overloading/images with any external antenna, and tuning around the 11m band, I
hear various broadcast ghosts from no telling where lower on the bands. Also
lots of freebanders and CODAR-like noises.
I have to switch attenuation down a notch to help, even tho the MTUCI signal is
very weak: averages 21 dB, while with no ATT it`s about 23 dB. No recognizable
music, except at 1458 sounds like steel drums: could be WWCR transition music
overloading from 7490 to 12160! 1500 announcement, 1501 mentions ``dot com`` so
could be in English; 1503 still on. I suspect by now I am really hearing some
image.
Dave ``glimmer twin`` Hughes had reported Magic Eye was making it to North
America today per several logs on:
http://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,16064.0.html
Apparently the schedule is now 13-16 UT instead of 12-15. At least there was
propagation from Europe, with a German DF2- ham on 24971 at 1506; one of few
signals on 15m earlier was someone in German; Spain & Kuwait broadcasts in well
on 13m.
BTW, the latest issue of SW Bulletin illustrates QSL on page 10:
http://www.hard-core-dx.com/swb/1793.pdf
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1713 monitoring: confirmed on WTWW-1, 9475, from
2100:55 Thursday March 20. Also confirmed on WWRB, 3195, UT Friday March 21
from 0328, following the preacher who sounds like he is having some kind of
attack every few seconds. Resumed after missing the past two weeks. Monitoring
also on the WWRB webcast, which was very low-level, but modulation OK on 3195.
Next:
Saturday 0730 & 1530 on Hamburger Lokalradio, 7265-CUSB
Saturday 2330v on WTWW-2, 9930 (we hope; has been off air a lot including last
week)
UT Sunday 0030 on WRMI-14, 9495
UT Sunday 0401 on WTWW-1, 5830
UT Monday 0300v on Area 51 via WBCQ 5110v-CUSB; etc.
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Confusion reigns about the DX test from WWXL 1450 Manchester KY. It
was a no-show at original time, UT Sunday March 16 at 0300, because the
engineer`s car broke down on the way to the station. He then said it would run
one week later, UT Sunday March 23 at 0300. But early UT Friday March 21, we
got word from arranger J. D. Stephens that on very short notice the test would
run ``tonight`` at midnight which should equal 0400-0500 UT. So I tried it
then for the first half-hour, but nothing definite heard, monitoring part of
the time on 1450, and partly on 1452-USB for sweep tones or code IDs. Huge
jumble in this graveyard, with the only thing recognized somestation playing
``Jump`` at 0411. A couple times there could have been code IDs at imaginary
level. DXers closer to KY also report a no-show again, so perhaps it will still
be appearing March 23 at 0300. There was also confusion about time and day, due
to incorrect conversions between EDT and
UT, which are now 4! Hours apart (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 7615+ SSB, March 21 at 1415 as I tune in, paramilitary net
mentioning ``caps`` (Civil Air Patrol?) in several states including LA, KY, FL,
and then ``the net is moving to NRD``, fonetikally. Geez, gotta keep the
frequencies secret even tho the contacts are in the open once you find them.
May have been more like 7615.5, as I didn`t have time to pinpoint it. No,
7615.0 USB was logged with Louisiana CAP et al. by Jack Metcalfe, KY, in UDXF
yg, Jan 27, 2014 at 2007 UT when they were also about to QSY (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
This report despatched at 1812 UT March 21
