** ALASKA. 9910, July 1 at 1301, KNLS IS, 1302 opening Chinese with website
smzg.org pronounced in English (I assume those letters have some significance
in romanized Mandarin, meaning maybe New Life Station??). Fair signal, and am
pleased to find my local high noise level is off at least for now (later, on
and off intermittently, and not so pervasive thruout HF). KNLS reception is
unusual enough here off the back of Anchor Point to be noteworthy (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. 18980, July 1 at 1334, CNR1 jammer, with SAH presumably from RFA
Tibetan via KUWAIT as this is its Tue & Fri frequency during this hour. No
others 12-19 MHz now with degraded propagation, except:
15195, July 1 at 1337, Firedrake jammer atop victim with SAH; 1348 a little
more CCI; vs IBB Tibetan via TAJKISTAN at 12-14; and the usual big CNR1 clash
on 15115
9845, July 1 at 1403, CNR1 jammer, fair vs IBB Chinese via THAILAND a 14-15
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6165, July 1 at 0554, RHC missing from this frequency, while overkill
English is nominal on 6100, 6060, 6000, 5040. Unfortunately, nothing else to be
heard on 6165, like silent Chad.
15370, July 1 at 1400, RHC missing from here, altho it was on in the previous
hour, while 15340 continues (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KUWAIT [and non]. 21540, July 1 at 1311, R. Kuwait, poor with orchestral
music, 1333 Arabic talk. Rarely listenable level any more if at all; SSOB with
much weaker one from nearby 21505 Saudi, while Spain is not audible at all on
13m, if still broadcasting (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. Photo linx in previous report were 1 number off; corrected:
0205 June 30 on 3, photos of XHBC Mexicali (sorry, my monitor is ``folding
over`` at top of screen, but can still see ``3`` bugs in UR)

** PERU. 5980, July 1 until 0115:46*, R. Chaski carrier with some modulation,
cut off six seconds later than yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SUDAN [and non]. As I mentioned before, HFCC showed some new MADAGASCAR
registrations by PNW (Press Now, same organization airing R. Tamazuj and R.
Dabanga) dated to start 010714, so I am monitoring for them, but they are
no-shows. Maybe they are really ``startin`` later than that on a date cut off
from the HFCC remarx. Not heard:
7205, July 1 at 0400
15150, July 1 at 0500
11805, July 1 at 1500 (but unlikely to be audible here even if on)
Thorsten Hallmann in Germany and Noel Green in England agree on nothing being
heard yet on 11805.
Existing transmissions have been reconfirmed, presumably starting with R.
Tamazuj:
15550, July 1 at 0400, fair via Madagascar
11650, July 1 at 0400, fair via Vatican with whine jamming
15550, July 1 at 1500, fair via Vatican
15150, July 1 at 1500, JBA signal presumably via Madagascar
Thorsten & Noel also agree on the 1500 frequencies
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9885, July 1 at 0127-0128* strong OC, probably Greenville-B tuning up
for a later transmission to Africa, French at 0600, which still exist (despite
IBB Tibetan via Tajikistan listed already on 9885 at 01-03), but:
9825, July 1 at 0126, no signal nor later from the last remaining VOA English
broadcast to the Americas, at 0130-0200 Tue-Sat, which had been for Learning
purposes, now deleted (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12105, July 1 at 0130, WTWW-3 is off, while -2 on 5085 and -1 on 9475
are on. -3 normally runs 17-02 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
