** AUSTRALIA. 11387-USB, May 3 at 1330, robotic YL with VOLMET for places such
as Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide. EiBi shows this 24h on the hours and
half-hours, frequency shared for 5 minutes each with Kolkata, Bangkok, Karachi,
Singapore, Mumbai in that order, but only Kolkata and Mumbai are 24 hours, the
others during local daytime only. Australian site ``n`` = Ningi QL
27S04'00"-153E03'20" which is just north of Brisbane (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA [and non]. 11910, May 3 at 1323, CRI English at S5, but it`s not //
9570 via CUBA. Conveniently, right next to it on 11900, is CRI English equally
weak with a completely different program-hour, and it is // 9570. 11910 is
Beijing site, 11900 Kunming.
Has anyone ever unraveled all the different CRI English program hours on which
frequencies currently at which times? Much of the content of course now comes
from the domestic Easy FM channel, and some of them annoyingly mix English and
Chinese as if we were all bilingual (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6100, May 3 at 0509, RHC at S9+10 of dead air instead of English,
which does emanate from 6165, at S9+10/20; 6000 too but undermodulated, during
self-congratulatory spiel about RHC`s 55th anniversary, tsk2. (SW started in
Feb 1961 as La Onda Corta Experimental Cubana; we remember it well on 11760,
but not proclaimed as RHC until May 1).
At this hour, 0500+, 5040 is still in Spanish, contrary to Aoki and EiBi which
both show English at 0500-0600*; maybe it is sometimes. If 5040 stay on another
hour until 0700, that would normally be in English along with all the other
English frequencies. Such uncertainty about the language on 5040 has been
rampant for a longtime (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA NORTH [non]. 5965, Tue May 3 at 1301, S4 very poor, piano music and
YL, i.e. Shiokaze from JAPAN on latest QSY. Tuesday language is Japanese for
both semi-hours per Ivo Ivanov.
BTW, the recently added daily broadcast in Japanese at 1405-1435 he says is on
new 7325! So much for the CRI window allowing Wantok Radio Light to be heard.
When will 1 kW WRL, PNG, ever figure out that they should find a frequency
without the Asian big`uns on it?
Ivo says the other Shiokaze hour at 1600 is now on 6090, another brand-new
frequency for it. English is on both hours (or rather all four semi-hours)
Thursdays only.
This is from the ``FINAL EDITION`` #950 of DX Re Mix News Bulgaria dated April
30, which will be sorely missed, altho Ivo is continuing to send us various
individual reports (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 6855.00, May 3 at 1253, weak S6 music, male vocal song, a pirate at
this unusual hour? No, must have been World Music, as 1259.5 WRMI Zanotti ID
and 1300 switch to Brother HyStairical, so at least today this is the
replacement for 6915. Carrier still on 6855 at 1403. As of 1430 May 3, WRMI
frequency schedule at
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nEVwCMB9RSKowLzLXamyayVpCzjmPAw_SB1r3YOdzQc/edit#gid=0
*still* shows 6915, 24 hours for XMTR 5 at 285 degrees. AFAIK, 6915 had been
100% BS, no WM, but the more World Music, the better, eating into The Overcomer
disservice.
Then here`s the scoop from Jeff White as of 1455 UT May 3:
``Glenn: 6915 has been replaced with 6855 because of US Army interference
complaint.
15560 was unintentional (2 x 7780) -- a tuning error on the transmitter, which
has been resolved.
9955 also had a problem a few days ago, but it has also been resolved. Jeff``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 17774.998, May 3 at 1404, the SSOB by far on 16m is KVOH, S9+20, but
undermodulated and distorted. Normally it`s a JBA carrier from *1400 as the F2
post-sunrise MUF struggles to surpass 17 MHz. So this must now be thanx to some
sporadic-E boost which will be happening more and more from May thru July (and
will occasionally reach VHF, surging to 108 MHz or even more).
Nice confirmation of this at 1435 on the 6-meter maps at
http://www.dxmaps.com/spots/map.php?Lan=E&Frec=50&Map=NA
http://tvcomm.co.uk/g7izu/propagation-maps/north-american-sporadic-e/
showing contacts between Los Angeles/Lincoln, and Las Vegas/Lincoln area,
Nebraska. One may also switch the first one to 10 meters, and the second one
has color-coded lines on the same map for 28, 50, 70 and 144 MHz. By 1535 UT,
there are a lot more 6m contacts across the western USA and the MUF is 65 MHz
per dxmaps.
Without Es, from 1400, 16m normally bears 17730 RHC as the SSOB, but now it`s
only S9, and 17790 WRMI is only S8 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

- Tune in to Arab YL vocals.Time pips @ 2315 followed by YL w/ ID for Radio
Cairo North American service, fanfare then into English news. Ended news with
Egyptian weather then into news analysis program featuring Syrian conflict and
attempts at ceasefire . This is one of the best signals I have heard from Cairo
in quite awhile. Audio was clear, signal was strong, S9+20 , and steady.
Interference was minimal. There was a very noticeable constant hum on the
signal which although slightly annoying did not cause any serious degradation
to the audio.
