Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
** BANGLADESH. 15505, March 6 at 1357, BB open carrier, poor with flutter; IS
begins at 1359:05.5, mistimesignal ends at 1359:24.5, theme and opening Urdu
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BOTSWANA. 15580, March 6 at 1458, overmodulated and distorted music on fair
signal, presumably VOA Music Mix, 1500 VOA theme and news less distorted (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 4885, March 6 at 0609, lively Brazilian music vs CODAR swooshes, so
R. Clube do Par?, Bel?m, is back to 24-hour service after missing a week or so;
at 0710 some ads mentioning Par?. The other 4885 ZY, in Rio Branco, is listed
in WRTH as 09-04 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 11745 & 11815, March 5 at 2323, crackling spurs from 11780.1v
RNA/RNB are already barely audible, surely to build up along with the
fundamental as the night progresses (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA [and non]. 9875, March 5 at 2315, Chinese talk, CNR1 jamming // 9825
mixing with Firedragon and something else: i.e., RFA Tibetan via LITHUANIA
during this hour only. 9825 is vs RFA Mandarin via Tinian this hour only..
11945, March 6 at 1504, CNR1 jammers with echo, good with flutter and CCI,
which is victim RFA Mandarin via TAJIKISTAN during this bihour only (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. 9870, March 6 at 1352, CRI English, fair with flutter, and ahead of
// Cuba 9570. Not a trace of AIR VBS from Bengaluru supposed to be here at
1230-1740. CRI listed as Xi`an site at 1300-1557 (and BTW another collision on
9870 is Iran in Arabic from 1430). Why won`t these stations/nations get their
acts together, or rather, apart?
9585, March 6 at 1355, CRI English is gone from here after unexplained
appearance yesterday, reaudiblizing Iran in Japanese, very poor (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 9845-9855 at least, March 6 at 1351, huge dirty noise blob as this RHC
transmitter is totally out of order. By tuning precisely to center 9850 one can
make out some program modulation // 11760 and all the other frequencies which
are OK. If there was any doubt the same unit moves to 15370 around 1400, it`s
now removed:
15365-15375 at least, March 6 at 1357, huge dirty noise blob as this RHC
transmitter is totally out of order; they just moved it up from 9850 without
noticing the problem! By 1435 recheck it`s back in whack (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** EGYPT. 12035, March 5 at 2321, open carrier, dead air from R. Cairo. Nice
clean signal, no hum or traces of distorted modulation; congratulations! O,
really just warming up, Abis at 2330-0045 Arabic, 0045-0200 Spanish (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUATEMALA. 4055, March 6 at 0609, R. Verdad in national anthem by children`s
choir. Much like the Mexican, it goes on and on with repeating multiverses (but
different lyrix?), too much distortion to understand anything. Cadence slows
down for finale, ending at 0613.5 and carrier on a while longer (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU [and non]. 5980-, March 6 at 0059, two JBA carriers beating against
each other with BFO, at least one slightly on the lo side compared to MW 980
signals. One of them, R. Chaski, goes away about 0104:17.5* which is 37 seconds
later than last check a sextanight ago, i.e. averaging 6+ seconds per; margin
of error as I could not get a precise timing on the cutoff under these
difficult circumstances. At least no Cuban pulse jamming against nothing this
time. Remaining carrier no doubt is BBC via UAE.
What will the situation be in A-15? Of course, Per? is too out of it to
participate in HFCC; BBC will be gone from 5980, but ``YFR`` will be back on
5985 from 0100. Maybe with Jeff White now heading HFCC, he can get the YFR
abbr. retired and replaced by RMI? Or OKE? RMI is on the roster for the defunct
Hialeah Gardens original site (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN. 9620, March 5 at 2317, REE is still on air instead of closing at
2300, political news, not even a silly ballgame! Very good here // poor-fair
11940, not heard on presumed unpropagating 17755, nor on 15490 until at 2325 I
find that // JBA. Finally at 2330, into sign-off routine ``until 1900``
cluelessly announcing out of date frequencies! ``11685, 11940, 9620, 12030``,
plus irrelevant satellite frequencies and polarizations --- don`t you have to
give all the satellite transmission parameters for them to be of any use?
Forward error correction gets a bit too technical? And how do you express that
in Castilian? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9395, March 5 at 2320, WRMI with TruNews here and not on 11550, which
used to run 18-24 UT, and same transmitter from 01 is not heard on 5015 either,
so 24h on 9395 appears to replace them both, and then some. Checked at 1713 UT
March 6, the WRMI grid has been updated as of March 8, showing no use at all of
transmitters 1, 3 and 5, and some others swapped around.

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1763 monitoring: Not to be heard any more on Global
24, UT Friday at 0001 on 9395 --- however, G24 on Facebook says WOR was the
second most popular program on their schedule, after `The Rock Pile`, and they
are planning a comeback; while financial contributors are upset about the lack
of glasnost. Anyhow, WOR remains:
Fri 2130 on WRMI 7570 & 15770

Wed 0730 & 1530 on Hamburger Lokalradio 7265-CUSB
Wed 1315 on WRMI 9955
Wed 2100 on WBCQ 7490v
As chances to hear WOR on SW are reduced, I suggest you may want to subscribe
to a podcast: three different sources are linked atop
http://www.worldofradio.com
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 700, March 6 at 0602 UT, Spanish religion easily audible with WLW
nulled, i.e. KHSE Wylie/The Metroplex whose major daylobe is aimed right at
Cincinnati! Also may be day power 1500 instead of 920 watts night; KAZ was
getting it near Chicago. I have it here easily on daytime groundwave (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Checked 24 hours later around 0700 March 5, 50 kW daytimer WAMB is no
longer colliding with WOAI, altho with WOAI nulled I hear some weak signal.
Regarding the confusing situation about WAMB 1200 Nashville and its FM relays,
I asked Doug Smith, TN, to sort it out:
``98.7 ----
Currently occupied by WCRT-FM1. It's licensed as a booster*, under
Special Temporary Authority to address Cuban interference to WCRT-1160. Latter
station *was* WAMB but switched calls (and format to religion) when sold to
Bott Broadcasting a few years back. The booster switched with it.
Permit for new translator W254CK. Which is currently authorized to use
one of the WAMB-1200 towers northwest of Nashville. There are four on
the site, even though WAMB is non-directional. The site was built for
WWGM-1560, which *was* directional. WWGM moved to Gallatin years ago,
becoming non-directional WMRO.
98.9 ---
WANT, Lebanon. Co-owned with WAMB-1200 and WCOR-1490, Lebanon (and
WKDA-900 Lebanon). WAMB IDs with WCOR & WANT. Yes, the format is Real
Country.
99.3 ---
does do surprisingly well for 3 watts. Not sure why.
106.3 ---
will apparently be the new home of WCRT-FM1 once W254CK bumps it`` (Glenn
Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ARGENTINA. 28480-usb, March 6 at 2114, LU8YE, fair signal making quick
contacts in Spanish and English, such as WD9IDV at 2115. When vox is open,
background noise of other voices so must be a multi-operator station. The Y
after the number indicates it`s in a remote part of Argentina (Z would even be
Antarctic), as call-regions are lettered rather than numbered. Yes, QRZ.com
shows:
LU8YE

LOS PEHUENES 1 Y LAS RETAMAS
SAN MARTIN DE LOS ANDES - PATAGONIA, NQ 8370

``The Radio Club de los Andes, located in the city of San Martin de los Andes,

They are gearing up for this weekend`s ARRL DX contest which doesn`t start
until 0000 UT March 7 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COSTA RICA. 24950-USB, March 6 at 2111, virtually the only phone signal on
12m, and certainly the biggest, is TI5/M0DXR, making quick contacts, maybe
warming up for the ARRL DX Contest? Which does not start until 0000 UT March 7.
Someone mentioned 5-9 as if that were also a contest name. Mostly contacting US
stations, weak here as most of the country is beyond skip range at this
frequency and/or they certainly aren`t aiming at OK (unless in the Pacific
Northeast). One worked is N1DS at 2113. Per QRZ.com, while he`s operated from
many extra-UKOGBANI locales, nothing in particular about the current TI5; just
home info:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6000, March 7 at 0127, RHC is off, leaving English only on 6165 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EGYPT. 9900, March 6 at 2126, R. Cairo English to Europe first seems dead
air, then can make out some suptorted just-barely modulation, also some hum,
poor with flutter. Suptorted == suppressed & distorted.
12035, March 7 at 0119, R. Cairo, good signal but dead air
9860, March 7 at 0124, R. Cairo, fair signal, dead air
9905, March 7 at 0125, R. Cairo, Arabic music, talk, whine, distorted
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUATEMALA. 28500-USB, March 6 at 2117, TG9AHM calling CQDX, poor signal.
From Guatemala City, has quite a gallery of family, pets, certificates, shack
on his QRZ.com page:
TG9AHM
EMMANUEL H. MIERES G. (Manny)
P.O. BOX 2,789
CORREO CENTRAL, ZONA 1 , 01001
Guatemala
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU [and non]. 5980, March 7 at 0101, JBA carriers beating; one, i.e. R.
Chaski, goes off at 0104:23.5, which is 6 seconds later than last night, while
BBC/UAE remains. I can usually hear this on both the PL-880 and DX-398, but now
on the latter only (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SAUDI ARABIA. 9555, March 6 at 2122, ME music, very poor with flutter, not
// better Holy Qur`an on 11815, 11915, as unlike them, this is the BSKSA
General First Program. Tuning on up, I hear the same music but considerably
unsynchronized, why? on much better 9870, good signal. And why such a disparity
in quality? Both are registered as 500 kW: 9555 at 295 degrees from Riyadh and
9870 at 310, which is certainly closer to USward, but only 15 degrees
difference (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SRI LANKA. 11905, March 7 at 0118, very poor signal with flutter, seems
unmodulated, quite a change from the usual good signal from SLBC Trincomalee
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1763 monitoring: confirmed Friday March 6 at 2130:30
on WRMI 7570 & 15770, about equal levels here. Next:
Sat 0730 & 1530 on Hamburger Lokalradio 7265-CUSB
Sat 1000 on WRMI 5850
Sat 2030v on WA0RCR 1860-AM Gateway 160 Meter Radio Newsletter, MO
Sun 0415v on WA0RCR 1860-AM Gateway 160 Meter Radio Newsletter, MO
Sun 2300 on WRMI 11580
[USA DST shifts now in effect!:]
Mon 0300v on Area 51 via WBCQ 5110v
Tue 1100 on WRMI 9955
Wed 0730 & 1530 on Hamburger Lokalradio 7265-CUSB
Wed 1315 on WRMI 9955
Wed 2100 on WBCQ 7490v
As chances to hear WOR on SW are reduced, I suggest you may want to subscribe
to a podcast: three different sources are linked atop
http://www.worldofradio.com
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5111.0, UT Saturday March 7 at 0102, William Tell Overture, but no
Allan Weiner, as Tom is substituting tonight (and I don`t think he interjected
a word when the theme paused a beat). 0110 checking WBCQ // 7490.0, and find
that program on 5111 is 29 seconds behind (travelling to Maryland and back on
the internet?). Yes, measured very close to 5111.0 but Tom says ``5110``, and
7490.0 is not 1 kHz off. Tom seems to be vamping, as he is multi-tasking, also
running the AM station; opens to calls and soon hears from John in Bermuda at
0116 (Glenn Hausr, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 11580, March 6 at 2127, ute chirping QRM about 11578 on the lo side
of WRMI with BS. Not the continuously repeating sweeps upward (and downward in
het) previously logged. Same thing still happening at next check 0122 March 7.
7730, March 7 at 0109, WRMI now has BS on here // much stronger 7570; I think
this is a change, 00-02 for WRMI-14 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12105 & 9930, March 6 at 2129, two thirds of WTWW are silent, but the
other third remains blasting supremacy nonsense on 9475 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 720, March 7 at 0138 UT, WGN Chicago with conclusion of the ``Star
Spangled Banner``, really belted out by an unID baritone with cheers,
back-announced as preceded by ``O Canada``, as it`s a match involving the
Edmonton Oilers, so a silly puck game presumably against the Blackhawks. This
will have to do, as US NSP stations don`t bother to play Our National Anthem at
local midnight or any other predictable time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 1400, March 7 at 0135 UT, Ad Council for Food Bank/Feeding America,
then promo for Cornhuskers game mentioning KLIN twice --- so the 1 kW
graveyarder in Lincoln NE, despite two closer Kansans on 1400 (plus 3 Okies);
Lincoln city-to-city is 502 km = 312 miles, half a megameter, not bad.
And quite a surprise: I normally DX MW on the DX-398 which has better
sensitivity and tighter nulling than the PL-880, but the `398 batteries just
died so I switch to the PL-880, and discover that its selectivity is better so
that I can get DX on a channel adjacent to strongest local 1390 KCRC, even
without nulling KCRC! Unthinkable on the DX-398. A few minutes earlier at 0133
UT when I was nulling KCRC, almost sounded like some Spanish on 1400: in
adjacent states, only 3 or 4 of the 13 Texans are SS (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** URUGUAY [non]. 6125, March 7 at 0105, not even a JBA carrier where
Radiodifusi?n Nacional del Uruguay was reported active again by Rodolfo Tizzi
in Montevideo, March 4 at 2050 UT, but with 300 watts it was weak even in the
neighborhood. WRTH claimed it was already active, 24 hours. As I pointed out
already in the DXLD yg, we might have a chance during the window for NO QRM on
6125, now that Spain has departed, 01-10 UT between CNR1 broadcasts from China,
during its local daytime anyway, and overnight in the Oriental Republic.
Propagation from S America is funxional if not very good, with the usual het
between stronger stations in Brasil and Bolivia on 6135v. Rodolfo put up this
clip of it:
http://youtu.be/XDmvszvdXjY
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA. 28445-USB, March 6 at 2118, YV1KK with good signal, 2119
quickworking KK4SYB. On QRZ.com displays all his homebrew antennas and contest
scores. No doubt this too is a pr?lude to the big one by ARRL starting at 0000
UT March 7. Does not want to give a postal address, just:
