** AUSTRALIA. 9580, 12085 & 12065, Friday April 10 at 1314, R. Australia amid
`Keys to Music` appreciation show, discussing Chaikovsky, with some examples,
guest being new conductor of the Christchurch Symphony; 1332 finally playing
Francesca da Rimini complete to applause at 1359, no program outro but RA
promo, 1400 news, 1406 `Conversations with Richard Fidler`, guest this time an
astrophysicist/cosmologist, Alan Duffy, about colliding galaxies, etc.
Lots of stimulating talk programming on the RA schedule now, so I go thru the
entire week and pick out some of them with current timings, and update three of
them on DX/SWL/MEDIA programs:
`Late Night Live` is still on sked but only at 06-07 UT Tue thru Fri (when it
really is late night in America at least).
`Download This Show` --- Fri 0430, Sun 1105, Mon 1730, Tue 1930
`Media Report` --- Thu 0730, 2230
`Future Tense` --- Thu 1930, Fri 0930, Sun 0130, Tue 0430
`Keys to Music` --- Fri 1305-1400, Sun 1805-1900
`Daily Planet` --- (world music) Mon thru Thu 1305-1400
Frequencies remain just: 09-21 12085, 12065, 9580; 21-09 17840, 15415, 15240
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. CNR1 jammers morning of April 10:
11500, April 10 at 1350, CNR1 jammer, very good with flutter; no 10s
11785, April 10 at 1350, CNR1 jammer, fair with flutter and close to matching
11500. This one is vs VOA via Philippines
11970, April 10 at 1350, CNR1 jammer, fair with flutter, not synch with 11500;
Aoki shows 11500 vs Sound of Hope; and 11970 vs Radio Free Asia via SOH, Taiwan
12910, April 10 at 1353, CNR1 jammer, very poor with flutter
13920, April 10 at 1354, CNR1 jammer, very poor with flutter
15115, April 10 at 1355, CNR1 jammer mixing equally with VOA Thailand
15265, April 10 at 1355, CNR1 jammer with het. Aoki shows during this hour
only, 15265 bears both RTI from Tainan, perpetually off-frequency; and RFA
Tibetan via Tajikistan. None propagating in the 14s, 16s, 17s, 18s, 19s (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6165, April 10 at 0538, RHC is *still* totally out of whack, nothing
but noise blob on this `English` frequency, and blocking three channels, as
first noted at 0131. At least four hours of this and nobody notices at Bauta
that 100 kW transmitter #4 on antenna #10 toward Chicago needs a bit of
attention!
15370, April 10 at 1311, RHC is back on this frequency, which had been missing
since last heard April 5. A-15 RHC sked effective tomorrow still shows 15370 as
100 kW Bauta #4, on antenna #8 toward San Francisco at 13-15; while 15730 will
be new for 100 kW Bauta transmitter #1, on antenna #4 toward Rio de Janeiro at
11-15. So never mind my guess that 15730 might be a typo --- both are on the
schedule.
Also, 11950 at 15-18 UT nondirexional is labeled Esperanto Sunday only, but
that would only apply to the first half hour, so not clear if it really be on
daily otherwise in Spanish for the full period, but no other frequency, not
even previous 11760, is shown during that midday trihour.
Sorting out the three transmitter sites, everything is Bauta, EXCEPT:
5 x 250 kW at Tit?n: 11-13 9550; 11-15 15230; 21-05 11840; 22-05 15230; 23-07
6000.
2 x 50 kW at Bejucal: 11-15 9640, 21-04 9710, 2230-0030 15370;
1 x 100 kW (called #9) at Bejucal: 11-15 9820, 21-05 9535
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MADAGASCAR. 13840, April 10 at 0546, NHK in French is good, and hardly any
Egypt on 13850 to spur here tonight.
13765, April 10 at 0545, Vatican Radio in Portuguese is good to very good here,
also via Talata. Meanwhile, R. Dabanga on 13800 & 11650 are merely via Vatican,
jammed, and much weaker than these; see SUDAN [and non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 1520, April 10 at 1320 UT, KOKC remains on air, and IDs as ``Your
50,000-watt news source, News-talk 1520, KOKC`` --- NOT HARDLY --- as we all
know (but not ordinary listeners?), it`s not been 50 kW for at least a couple
of years, but 12.5 and now only 10 kW. THEY LIE. Also at this hour with SAH
from remnant of CRI via KYND TX. Slightly different angles allow KOKC to be
minimized and KYND maximized by precise positioning of the DX-398 (Glenn
Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 94.3, April 10 at 0548 UT, KLGB-LP, Enid is still dead air except
for bleedthru from sibling station 99.9 KVBN-LP; with automated time and temp,
and then at 0554 an hymnified version of 1812 Overture, of all things. Next
check at 1349 UT, still dead air, etc. Ditto at 1706 UT, now in the
twenty-first hour, at least, of negligence (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** SUDAN [and non]. 11650, April 10 at 0544, tone jammer and R. Dabanga, both
poor.
13800, April 10 at 0545, 2-tone jammer very poor and R. Dabanga is JBA here. At
this hour both channels are via VATICAN (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SWAZILAND. 15360, April 10 at 1359, TWR music box IS, poor signal, and
``Trans World Radio, Swaziland`` ID, into Urdu. This station knows where it
really is, even tho in WRTH you have to find it under INDIA, and all other
Manzini broadcasts under SOUTH AFRICA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5109+, April 10 at 0540, Overcomer // 5890 WWCR but not synched with
it. Very slightly on hi side of 5109, nowhere near nominal 5110. Only fair in
storm noise crashes. Once again this WBCQ transmitter is on late at night, but
TOM sked for it unknown. Is there any ``5110`` entry in either SW schedule at
the Overcomer website? Of course not! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. 1620, April 10 at 0558 UT, I find that R. Rebelde, CUBA is
unusually dominant, but nulling it I hear some rock music past hourtop, later
non-ID by YL as ``double-play on U-93``. Therefore it`s WDND South Bend IN,
which, BION, AFAIK has never been logged here before (I don`t keep a master
log, but searching out my archived log reports this century). NRC AM Log shows
WDND relays FM 92.9 by that name, really WNDV. 1620 is normally occupied here
by news/talker WTAW TX and sportster KOZN NE, if not Cuba. Where are they? At
next hourtop 0659 UT, I do pull out a WTAW ID amid the QRM, so it`s still there
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 99.1, April 10 at 0553 UT, Christian rock in $tereo with K-LOVE on
the DX-398 RDS, not noticed here before. WTFDA FM Database shows no Okies on
99.1, so this must be Kansas: KTLI El Dorado, 100 kW at 188 meters. El Dorado
is just NE of Wichita on the Turnpike (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

ARGENTINA RAE 6054.15v Found off-freq and very distorted again at 2337
UTC w/usual mx pgm hosted by M w/infrequent anmnts. Finally ID/IS/Jazz mx
routine at 2355, then the signal going off the air at 2356. But unlike the
last time, they didn?t appear to jump up to their nominal 6060 this time.
Strong signal. Here?s a link to a Youtube video I posted

** ALBANIA. 9850-, April 11 at *0122:12, R. Tirana comes on with IS, up from
the noise floor of 00-17 dbu to 10-24 dbu. During the following English to
North America, Wolfgang B?schel measured it 27 Hz low (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 11770-11790, April 11 at 0056, RNA/RNB 11780.1v is splattering up
and down, in addition to the usual separate crackling spurs circa 11815 and
11745. The RAE Argentina IS on 11711- is also marred by the weaker one (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 2749-USB, April 11 at 0102, very poor signal but YL voice,
presumably marine weather; then I check 2598-USB and hear more of same,
probably not //, both too weak to read --- but first time I`ve heard either in
months, not all winter, so suspected the Canadian Coast Guard may have closed
them, but Bill Hepburn confirmed they were still on. His listings
http://www.dxinfocentre.com/mb.htm
show these must have been, on shared frequencies, at this hour:
2749, VCO, Sydney NS, starting at 0040
2598, VCP-4, Placentia NL, starting at 0048
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA [and non]. 15565, April 11 at 0051, CNR1 jammer, poor signal with low
rumbling audible heterodyne, Chinese and CCI, this being the VOA via THAILAND
hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6060, April 11 at 0045 UT, RHC with someone speaking ``church
Spanish``, and sure `nuff, it`s the Pope`s portable voice, with official
greeting to the President of Panam?, as the big-deal Seventh Summit is getting
underway, seemingly live coverage.
17730, tuning around further, at 0052 UT April 11 I find this RHC frequency
still on air with same, and holding up with a VG signal. Vatican spoxeman is
finishing and at 0053 a childlike voice introduces the next speaker, Secretary
General of the OAS, also greeting the Pan Pres & spouse. Also on 9710, 9535,
15230, 11760, 11840, 13740 at least.
This must be pre-empting regular programming, and do not be surprised if there
is more of this on Saturday, even causing some frequency extensions. According
to the brand-new A-15 schedule, 17730 is supposed to finish at 2300 after
European service from Bauta #1, and switch to 11670 for Rio de Janeiro until
0400.
17730 is still on at 0111 with someone speaking in English (a number of
Caribbean countries are in this), but voice-over translation into Spanish,
bummer.
Anyhow, RHC is doing a lot more on the Summit than we can ever expect from VOA
--- and I wonder how R. Mart? will be playing it, as the Cuban-Americans are
none too happy about Pres. Obama meeting with Pres. Castro.
6165 meanwhile is back in whack tonight, after last night`s total disaster of
huge noise blob instead of English. But it`s normal RHC programming at 0111 //
6000, not Summit-live (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EGYPT [and non]. 9315, April 11 at 0113, R. Cairo, fair signal, open
carrier/dead air instead of Spanish
9965, April 11 at 0113, R. Cairo, good signal with whine, Arabic is JBM, then
BM with ID at 0114
12070, April 11 at 0114, R. Cairo, fair signal and suptorted, supposedly Spanish
11935, April 11 at 0116, the LAH under RB2 BRAZIL with its frequent IDs is
presumably the other Cairo frequency, nothing on 12035 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 1560, April 10 at 1820 UT on caradio, KEBC Del City is once again
back on its own, no longer duplicating 1520 KOKC, where rebuild of a single
tower must now be complete. Instead on 1560 I am hearing Oklahoma high school
sports promos (same one twice?), and Oklahoma Dept of Health PSA, 1822 UT
rejoining NBC Sports Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 94.3, April 10 at 2008 UT, now it`s at least 24 hours of dead air
from KLGB-LP Enid, deadline for license cancellation under gh`s proposed FCC
rules. Still with bleed from 99.9 co-station. And still at 0340 UT April 11 ---
make that 31 hours and counting (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OMAN. 9740, April 11 at 0049, Qur`an, fair signal, presumed R. Sultanate of
Oman, having failed to switch to 9500 at scheduled 0000. Registered time for
9740 is 22-24 UT only, and someone on the NASWA Flashsheet had an unID then
which must have been this (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 5980, April 11 at 0046, JBA carrier from R. Chaski; autocutoff happens
at 0107:58.5* which is 5.5 seconds later than last night, back to customary
slippage. My streetlight RF burst and visible ignition haven`t happened yet,
even tho sunset horizon is cloudy, but surely within the next few minutes when
I miss it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SRI LANKA. 11905, April 11 at *0114:10.5, carrier on from SLBC (and no
pre-burst since 0111 tune-in), pr?lude at 0114:49.5; 2+1 pips until 0115:19,
right on mis-time, opening. Signal is only poor, not the good but fluttery one
it habitually achieved in Feb and Mar (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1768 monitoring: confirmed Friday April 10 at 2130.5
on WRMI 7570 and still also on // 15770.
Also confirmed at 0130 UT Saturday April 11 on new outlet Radio Free Dishnuts,
webcasts via http://www.radiodude.info/dishnuts/index.html
Our other time is Tuesdays 1330. Their program schedule is outdated.

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5109, April 10 at 0039, WBCQ is audible but weaker than before; by
0042 I can tell that it`s Brother Scare, // 7570 WRMI but not synch. At 0059,
5109 breaks for WBCQ ID, and back to BS.
7490 meanwhile has Allan Weiner Worldwide, without AW. At 0040 VG signal,
someone talking about reviving the Kennedy Space Center, and TimTron appears to
be the substitute host. Goes to music around 0056, not sure if a break or
program over, but by 0108 it`s BS here, about one word behind 5109. Normally
during AWWW starting at 0000 UT Saturdays, both 7490 and 5109 would be carrying
him. Checked 9330 and 15420 just in case, and still no signals there.
5109 should also carry Area 51 on UT Saturdays, but this weekend`s schedule at
http://www.worldmicroscope.com skips Friday night:

** U S A. 11580, UT Saturday April 11 at 0057, surprised to hear AWR Wavescan
on this WRMI frequency, which had been and is still scheduled to carry R.
Ukraine International daily at 0030-0100; not // 9955 yet, but at 0110 check
they both air the same gospel huxter (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 15825, April 10 at 2007, no signal, not even a JBA carrier from
WWCR-1, which per current sked is supposed to run until 2200. It might have
been propped-out, except 15610 WEWN is very good at the same distance,
different angle; and so is 13845 WWCR. Before 0100 UT April 11, I do notice
WWCR-1 present on 6115 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 2660+, April 11 at 0103 UT, some music audible and slightly on the hi
side, i.e. 2 x 1330 harmonic of KGLD Tyler TX. The 2 MHz band noise level is
