** BRAZIL. 11747, Dec 23 at 0613, trace of the distorted spur here from 11780.1
RNA/RNB (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** FRANCE [non]. 9790, Dec 24 at 0420, RFI French making rippling fast SAH with
CRI Chinese via CUBA, which is normally blasting in here, but propped-down
tonight. RFI is 100 kW, 20 degrees via SOUTH AFRICA, per HFCC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GERMANY [non]. 9600, Dec 24 at 0418, English report on Ebola in Liberia,
good // 9800. Both are Kigali, RWANDA, of course, in English at 04-06, but 9600
is due south and 9800 is non-dir (or due north?) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** GREECE. 9415, Dec 23 at 0416, Greek music, good, // fair 9935. ERTOpen has
been jumping around the last day or two between 9420 and 9415 again. 9935 back
in whack (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** IRAN [and non]. 9710, Dec 24 at 0419, fair with flutter, VIRI or rather V.
of Justice, concluding English to N America with contact info and off. No
CubaRM co-channel and suspected off, but no, it`s merely greatly attenuated in
disturbed propagation, since I can barely // trace of music then to 6060. I
also quickly checked Iran // 7325 before 9710 was finished but no signal at all
--- closed early or completely off today? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** MOROCCO. 9575, Dec 24 at 0417, ME music, poor-fair, as M?di 1, Nador, is
back on the air after missing a few days, so, yay, Morocco is not yet a dead
SWBC country (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NEW ZEALAND. 11725, Dec 23 at 0613 check, RNZI seems off --- no, there`s a
JBA signal, maybe it; while Australia is not propagating either on 11945, 13630
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NICARAGUA. 720, Dec 24 at 0431, last few bars of a national anthem, vaguely
familiar, then off. With WGN weakened and nulled. I bet it`s YNA3RC, R.
Cat?lica --- yes, then looked up in WRTH 2015 and it`s one of the stations
still listed with a schedule, odd sign-off time of 0430, and a YouTube of the
NA matches well enough:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_oppAlORos
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. GLOBAL 24 program schedule, 9395, continues to be updated,
http://www.tinyurl.com/G24sked
Now there is a DX-program lineup on Tuesday evenings [UT Wednesdays]
0030 Frequency Cast
0100 Chelmsford Calling [monthly] or other SW shows
0200 Frequency Cast [more? repeat? But now for an hour?]
0300 This Week in Amateur Radio > RAIN Report
0330 Wavescan
0400 World of Radio
0430 Media Network Plus
Also, three major broadcasters` hours in English are now stripped:
0500-0600 NHK World Radio M-F [? But originally only half an hour]
0600-0700 Radio France International, daily
0700-0800 Deutsche Welle, daily
`Democracy Now` has been shifted once again to air at 1300-1400 (live) and
2300-2400 Monday-Friday (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
Following the above notice to the DXLD yg, I listen in:
(9395) webcast of Global 24, checking out the new `DX block` per their revised
program grid for UT Wednesdays. What I hear from 0030 to 0330 is not exactly
what the sked shows. 0031 we`re amid a WRN block which turns out to be ``Radio
Poland`` as Swavek Shefs is calling it now, much more succinctly than Polish
Radio External Service, and this program continues for the rest of the hour,
instead of `Frequency Cast` at 0030. At 0100, Feature Story News headlines from
Washington, cut to G24 overmodulated ID, and into `Cheltenham Calling`, the
monthly media and music magazine from the UK. 0116 it plugs fellow program
`Frequency Cast` without saying when to hear it. 0118 ``Wireless Years``
segment of C.C., which is really about vintage music. Segment about VOA
Radiogram and trying their own as Sunny Jim continues talking over the tones
with test announcement, trying to prove something? 0142 ``Trance music``; 0155
only a few minutes left for ``Listening Post``
which is not DX news, but quick mailbag and publicity acknowledgments.
At 0201, `Frequency Cast` really follows, #106. Seems it deals with various
media and tech matters, not frequencies where one may pick stuff up!! What a
misnomer. (Fortunately we have at least one DX program which is not
number-shy!) 0221 guess who`s interviewed, Sunny Jim from the C.C. show, about
SWBC vs Internet, numbers stations. Is not a full hour; closing at 0231 says
next show will be in 2015y; 0232-0236 extended FS News from London instead of
cutting it off after three headlines. 0236 RAIN, the ham news show starts,
until 0255. 0257 fill with part of ``Mrs Robinson`` tune.
Not on above sked at all, but at 0301 DX-Extra #7 from Hobart Radio
International beginning with the confused story about Radio Dabanga starting 10
SW stations (instead of Sudan starting FM stations to counter it, as we have
already discussed). 0331, AWR Wavescan opening with a Christmas Island story I
recall hearing before. 0401 WORLD OF RADIO 1752.
All the above heard on webcast. Then I move to the DX-398, only to find at 0415
that 9395 is JBA, enough to recognize it`s me, but that`s it. Presumably MN+
followed at 0430, so the 0330-0500 period should be reliable with three weekly
half-hour shows, while the 0030-0330 period cannot be reliable with non-weekly
shows of varying podcast/lengths.
As for the 04-07 UT period as mentioned above, NHK World Radio Japan is really
at 0500-0530, then WRN promo for Guangdong, and over to Kol Israel! 0546 to
Vatican Radio relay. (Now I`m back monitoring the Global 24 Radio webcast.)
BTW, it`s NOT ``Global Radio 24`` as I see some references. Also received this
publicity from Global 24 Dec 23:
Volume 1, Edition 1 will be available on December 29 for Insider Club Members .

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Remaining airings of WORLD OF RADIO 1752:
Wednesday 0730 & 1530 on Hamburger Lokalradio 7265-CUSB
Wednesday 1415 on WRMI 9955
(if a `Xmas Cantata` special at 1300 does not run over)
Wednesday 2200 on WBCQ 7490v
Wednesday 2201 on Global 24 via WRMI 9395
Don`t be surprised if the Xmas Eve/Day causes some regular airings of WOR 1753
to be missed; we hope not (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 17775, Dec 23 at 1437, KVOH Spanish but music is extremely distorted,
and the S-meter is jumping with the mod; much like ex-La Voz de la Restauraci?n
used to accomplish. I bet KVOH is itchin` to tear out this old monster and
start running the newly acquired but used Harris from Guam (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9930, Dec 23 at 1421, open carrier/dead air except for some hum from
WTWW-2, still so at 1438, past 1500 with no ID break either, 1535, 1557; wake
up, Ted! Finally at 1611 some Xmas music starts but it`s rather undermodulated;
still like that at 2206 recheck (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 7505+, Dec 24 at 0425, WRNO is AWOL; leaving 7490v WBCQ QRM-less
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1020, Dec 23 at 0414 UT, nulling semi-local KOKP Perry OK expecting a
Latin, I instead hear an echo from another Fox Sports Radio station. According
to NRC AM Log, the only other one on 1020 is: KJJK Fergus Falls MN, U2,
2000/370 watts. Its tiny night pattern is NE/SW, so maybe, but ND day pattern
would be better (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

There are many combinations between the transmitter sites and radio

Roger, it seems you missed these, or just being Euro-centric?
And then there is the McMurdo Antarctica special Dec 24 at 2300 on 7995-USB
(but being deep summer down there probably won`t get very far beyond).
73, Glenn Hauser
** U S A. 5109.76 approx., CUSB, UT Tue Dec 23 at 0110, I find that WBCQ is
active with some dense instrumental rock music; not // 7490 and 9330 is off.
0114 announced as ``the first broadcast of Electro Space``, to be monthly;
write radio @ electrospaceradio.com
Says will continue to broadcast monthly as long as there is an interested
audience. Only fair signal and hard to copy the music announcement details or
enjoy the music which I would have with a better signal. Rechecked periodically
on the PL-880 while I am bandscanning on the DX-398:
0121 some synthetic voices, ``Electro Space`` and 5 tones repeated several
times, then adding more tonal variations. 0141 back-announce music, asking for
reports again if listening on SW or internet. Next: All I Need, by a French(?)
group, Wicked Eyes by ---; Electro Space with --- (DJ name, but can`t copy), on
WBCQ. 0151, another ID, address, this time plus postal to Nelson Abby(?), P O
Box 225, East Jordan MI 49727; 0158 Jingle Bells; 0159 AW`s promo for airtime
on WBCQ and 0200 sign-off with classical music.
A few weeks ago we heard Allan promoting cheap airtime on 50 kW 5110 for
pirates to broadcast safely and legally, so this may be one of them. But I
found him only by chance, and it`ll be a long 31-day wait until the next
appearance (maybe). It`s not on the 5110 schedule at
http://schedule.wbcq.com/main.php?fn=sked&freq=5110
nor is anything at all from Mon thru Thu. Better keep an ear on 5110 every
evening for whatever else may show up without notice.
Aha, trying www.electrospaceradio.com we get forwarded to

So there`s the DJ, Nelson Ogden, and he says there will be another 5110
broadcast Thu Dec 25 at 11 pm Eastern = 0400-0500 UT Fri Dec 26.
Reports wanted but he does not QSL; no podcasts, but streaming only during the
SW broadcast (not working tonight, however). Is also on Facebook and a few
reports already there; where also says:
``We don't have podcasting rights for the music on this show, but I'll post a
link to a recording of the show for those that couldn't hear us on the radio:``

So I do start listening to Electro Space there. Tnx for the show (Glenn Hauser,

** U S A. GLOBAL 24 program schedule, 9395, continues to be updated,
http://www.tinyurl.com/G24sked
Now there is a DX-program lineup on Tuesday evenings [UT Wednesdays]
0030 Frequency Cast
0100 Chelmsford Calling [monthly] or other SW shows
0200 Frequency Cast [more? repeat? But now for an hour?]
0300 This Week in Amateur Radio > RAIN Report
0330 Wavescan
0400 World of Radio
0430 Media Network Plus
(Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
Following the above notice to the DXLD yg, I listen in:
(9395) webcast of Global 24, checking out the new `DX block` per their revised
program grid for UT Wednesdays. What I hear from 0030 to 0330 is not exactly
what the sked shows. 0031 we`re amid a WRN block which turns out to be ``Radio
Poland`` as Swavek Shefs is calling it now, much more succinctly than Polish
Radio External Service, and this program continues for the rest of the hour,
instead of `Frequency Cast` at 0030. At 0100, Feature Story News headlines from
Washington, cut to G24 overmodulated ID, and into `Cheltenham Calling`, the
monthly media and music magazine from the UK. 0116 it plugs fellow program
`Frequency Cast` without saying when to hear it. 0118 ``Wireless Years``
segment of C.C., which is really about vintage music. Segment about VOA
Radiogram and trying their own as Sunny Jim continues talking over the tones
with test announcement, trying to prove something? 0142 ``Trance music``; 0155
only a few minutes left for ``Listening Post``
which is not DX news, but quick mailbag and publicity acknowledgments.
At 0201, `Frequency Cast` really follows, #106. Seems it deals with various
media and tech matters, not frequencies where one may pick stuff up!! What a
misnomer. (Fortunately we have at least one DX program which is not
number-shy!) 0221 guess who`s interviewed, Sunny Jim from the C.C. show, about
SWBC vs Internet, numbers stations. Is not a full hour; closing at 0231 says
next show will be in 2015y; 0232-0236 extended FS News from London instead of
cutting it off after three headlines. 0236 RAIN, the ham news show starts,
until 0255. 0257 fill with part of ``Mrs Robinson`` tune.
Not on above sked at all, but at 0301 DX-Extra #7 from Hobart Radio
International beginning with the confused story about Radio Dabanga starting 10
SW stations (instead of Sudan starting 20 FM stations to counter it, as we have
already discussed). 0331, AWR Wavescan opening with a Christmas Island story I
recall hearing before. 0401 WORLD OF RADIO 1752.
All the above heard on webcast. Then I move to the DX-398, only to find at 0415
that 9395 is JBA, enough to recognize it`s me, but that`s it. Presumably MN+
followed at 0430, so the 0330-0500 period should be reliable with three weekly
half-hour shows, while the 0030-0330 period cannot be reliable with non-weekly
shows of varying podcast/lengths.

Hi Glenn,
originally this listing should only show regular activities in Germany,
in which can be seen a certain pattern.
All other special radio broadcasts from other European locations are
already a free addition.
Europe is already complicated enough .... quite a few languages.
I can not - begging your pardon - take care of the Antarctic at the
same time.........

** ANTARCTICA [non]. 7995-USB, Dec 24 at 2300 checking for the publicized
McMurdo station Xmas caroling: not expecting to hear it since this is near
local noon in midsummer! (UT +12 zone officially, like NZ without DST). I do
hear, however, occasional weak carriers on and off, which I can only assume are
nasty ham spoilers, just in case some signal should get out of Antarctica
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 11747, Dec 24 at 0701, distorted crackling spur from 11780.1,
RNA/RNB is JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. 11500 // 11600, Dec 25 at 0156, Chinese vocal music, very weak and
//, no doubt CNR1 jammers as per Aoki, 11500 being Sound of Hope, and 11600
being Radio Free Asia relay via SOH, each available very long hours with 0.1 kW
transmitters in Taiwan (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GERMANY [non]. Checking for the Gruss an Bord Xmas eve specials, Dec 24 at
1900 UT, nothing audible on any of the 5 frequencies vs noise level here. Nor
the other set at 2116. By 2257, however, most of them have JBA carriers at
least, while 9765 has an open carrier, by 2259 just barely modulated, but this
is probably CRI Khmer service via Nanning as scheduled from 2300 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KUWAIT. 21540, Dec 24 at 1352, no signal from R. Kuwait; there should at
least be a JBA carrier, since Saudi is there at very poor level on 21505. The
day before, Dec 23, Ivo Ivanov had reported 21540 to be open carrier/dead air
at 1215-1545, but today, not even that (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6940-USB, Dec 25 at 0145, blues music on big sig, likely
Wolverine Radio: yes, ID as such at 0152; off at next check 0207 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. RF 31 and RF 32, Dec 23 at 2132 UT, I notice that both KXOK-LP
transmitters are off the air. And must have been for a few days, since I first
noticed their cable channel, 15, was displaying ! WEAK SIGNAL. So no more easy
access to color bars instead of Azteca and Mundo-Fox, and no more 24/7
infomercials on main channel. Good riddance! This thing had so much potential
as Enid`s only local TV station, never fulfilled, altho originally had some
local programming (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. RF 24, KOKH-TV OKC has added a third channel, 25.3 = Weather
Nation, along with 25.2 ZUUS country music, and 25.1 FOX 25. This must have
happened in the past week, as I happen to step thru the STB channels and
suddenly find there is a 25.3 after 25.2. Weather Nation apparently is from
elsewhere, carrying national weather maps, etc., but constant Fox 25 bug in LR,
crawlers, and apparently total local breakways every 10 minutes on the 6`s
(beating The Weather Channel on the 8`s --- sometimes). (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1752 monitoring: confirmed Wednesday Dec 23 at 1415:35
on WRMI 9955, fair signal, no jamming. Also confirmed Wed Dec 23 at 2200 on
webcast of WBCQ 7490v; 2201 on webcast of Global 24 9395.
WORLD OF RADIO 1753 monitoring. Ready for first broadcast at 0430 Thu:

Wed 2201 on Global 24 via WRMI 9395
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
WORLD OF RADIO [non] --- I hesitate to mention this, but Chris Smolinski has
posted on HF Underground, December 24, 2014 at 2152 UT: ``World of Radio Parody
to air 1200 UT 25 Dec 2014 --- Or so I hear. Not sure what frequency, possibly
on or near 6925`` (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9395, Dec 24 at 1337 check, Global 24 via WRMI is still not carrying
`Democracy Now` which it was planning to do M-F during the original live
broadcast M-F at 13-14; instead, Deutsche Welle, about markets, blue wine, then
something from Paris. At 1400 over to NHK, and 1430 KBS. Next check at 2301,
`Democracy Now` is on, a time which does seem to be reliable (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 17775, Dec 24 at 1914, I settle on KVOH for napping music, as it`s
one of the best signals, and not too offensive; praise/Xmas music in Spanish
which also helps me brush up my SS lyrix. Modulation is good too this time. No
announcements until live interruption at 1943, ``?mucha atenci?n!`` ---
[summary translation] coming up at 12 UTC [sic] there will be 5 minutes of
silence, then Spanish until 4 or 5 o`clock, and then English all-night. Then
talking about some apps available from 25 Dec for listening on internet and
cell phones. Also a new transmitter will be inaugurated next year for better
coverage.
KVOH normally signs off at 2000 UT, and at next check 2017 it is indeed off. I
suppose the announcement was not live, but a replay of an earlier webcast
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9330-CUSB, Dec 25 at 0152, oldtimeradio comedy show on WBCQ; VG
signal here and VP on 5110-CUSB, which seems like the same but not in synch.
7490v is also on but different, talk show with Monsey NY address.
At 0205 I do conclude that 9330 is // but not synch 5110, and now 7490 is
almost // 9330 but not synch, during a version of ``Night Before Xmas`` with
lots of musical produxion (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5085, Dec 25 at 0154, WTWW-2 is off, perhaps having exhausted its
Xmas tune library many times over. Not paying much attention, but I think 9930
was also off during the Dec 24 daytime (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
