** ALBANIA. 9854.945, June 5 at 0128, how will R. Tirana do tonight for English
to North America? IS is playing OK at S6 until cut off the air at 0129.4*. I
keep listening, hoping for the best. At 0130, I start to hear rapid pulsing
carrier cutting on and off, unseeming as strong as before. The number of pulses
in a row between pauses varies a lot, sometimes 4, 5, or a lot more. At 0132,
some program modulation starts to appear on these pulses, YL with news, but
only for a few seconds. At 0134 I count 24 rapid pulses, i.e. carrier attempts
to stay on; by 0135 some modulation is appearing again, stays on a bit longer;
no, back to more pulsing. Finally at 0141, stays on the air with modulation,
carrier wobbling slightly and with continuous hum, but can tell that a story is
being told. 0147-0155+ nice folk music with occasional announcements (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ARGENTINA. 11710.6v, UT Sunday June 5 at 0136, NO signal from RAE, which had
been telling English service listeners that from June it would be expanded to 7
days a week instead of 5. If so, it`s not on the same frequency, as usual
weekend outlet relaying R. Nacional can be barely detected instead:
15343.91, UT Sun June 5 at 0136, JBA carrier must be LRA as it has dropped
below 15344 now per numerous reports; far too weak to tell if it`s in an
external service language which would be Japanese during this hour Tue-Sat. (We
don`t know if they were also planning to expand other languages to daily, but
it would be inconvenient to do it for only one?) Need to check both frequencies
after 0300 which has been the English hour --- so, at 0305 UT June 5: neither
one is audible. 15345 Spansih would normally be off by 0230 on UT Sundays, per
EiBi (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 11780, June 4 at 0529, RNA must be off --- no bigsig altho there is
a JBA carrier from something, while 6180 is as usual S9+20. Aoki shows nothing
else on 11780 at this hour, altho during the 24-hour day at various other
times, 11780 is used by UAE, Germany, Iran, China. So maybe RNA 11780 was on
drastically reduced power, or a propagation problem? Nothing dire per WWV at
0600:
``Solar-terrestrial indices for 03 June follow.
Solar flux 83 and estimated planetary A-index 3.
The estimated planetary K-index at 0600 UTC on 04 June was 1.
No space weather storms were observed for the past 24 hours.
Space weather for the next 24 hours is predicted to be moderate.
Geomagnetic storms reaching the G2 level are likely.``
11780, June 5 circa 0140, it`s back to normal, as big as 6180 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COLOMBIA. 5910.039, June 4 at 0542, tropical music, as Alcarav?n Radio is
back after missing a few weeks. Always off frequency plus. At 0610 Wolfgang
B?schel independently measured exactly the same offset.
Manuel M?ndez in Spain found it reactivated 24 hours earlier with this ID:
``"5910 kHz Alcarav?n Radio y 6010 kHz La Voz de tu Conciencia, desde Colombia
para el mundo", male: "Alcarav?n Radio, 1060 AM". 24322``. 1060?? Is that
correct? Alcarav?n used to be on 1530, and WRTH 2016 does not show any Meta
station on 1060. No reports seen yet nor by me, of 6010v being reactivated.
5910.015, June 5 at 0127, very poor music is audible, no CCI, and then I do
make out a JBA canned YL ID mentioning 1,530 --- not 1,060 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6165, June 5 at 0121, RHC English is S9+30 with dead air! OK at 0125
on 6000, S9+40 plugging the three domestic FM frequencies, which they do an
awful lot (in fact, do they ever give their current English SW frequencies??),
0125.5 starting news bulletin at odd time, and 6165 is still dead. Spanish on
6060 is OK and other RHC frequencies on 5, 9, 11, 13 and 15 MHz were nominal
during this hour`s bandscan (Glenn Hauser, OK, DXL ISTENING DIGEST)
** EAST TURKISTAN. 9470 // 9675, June 5 at 0111, very poor S3 signals match
with CRI English, but they don`t match 9570-Albania and 9580 Cuba relays; maybe
merely way out of synch? Programmation anyway sounds similar. Both 9470 and
9675 are Kashgar to western Europe, for insomniax who just can`t get enough
from Beijing. It`s probably a 24/7 service for that target (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EGYPT. 12085, 9965 and 9315, June 5 at 0150 and earlier, all three R. Cairo
frequencies exhibit terrible motorboating noises, and awful modulation, even
9965 this time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GREECE. 11645, June 5 at 0112, VOG for at least the second night is on here
instead of 9935, with some great Greek music, S6 // much stronger S9+20 on
9420; and not missing this week on a Saturday night/Sunday morning. QRX for
orthodoxy circa 0500 UT Sunday? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** IRAN. 12025, June 5 at 0148-0156+, open carrier/dead air. Recalling that
this is a VIRI frequency, but not what language, I thought it might have been
about to open one of the *:53+ broadcasts, but no --- it`s amid scheduled
Spanish 0020-0320, via Sirjan as long as Kamalabad be mothballed if not
demolished; so is the entire trihour silent? Ramadan is just starting, so more
messups to follow? People starving all very long summer days, binging at night,
as God wills (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NETHERLANDS [non]. 9935, UT Sunday June 5 at 0058, tune-in to Nauen,
GERMANY, with rock music at S9+20; just before 0100, ID ``We`re the Mighty
KBC``, bronx cheer(?) noise and immediately off*, perfectly timed, unlike a lot
of such transmissions which chopped too early, paying no attention to program
content. Yes, TMKBC has cut back to only one hour for North America, ex-2 or 3.
Was this hour `The Giant Jukebox` or something else? Does it still contain
Kraig Krist`s Forgotten Song, Kim Elliott`s Radiogram, and/or Pete`s ham DX
news?
Yes, from Kraig: ``On this evening's "Forgotten Song" I feature a group from
Newark, New Jersey. I thought of their song based on all the rain we've gotten
lately. 73, Kraig, ye "Forgotten Song" host`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6930.0-USB, June 5 at 0116, S9+20 pirate with soft YL song,
0119 jazzed up version of `Go Tell It On The Mountain`; 0122:50, ``Wolverine
Radio`` ID as I expected. MANY more logs, with playlists, SSTV images:
http://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,28490.0.html
Only other possible pirate signal I hear is a JBA AM carrier on 6950. These say
it was Radio Illuminati:
http://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,28492.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 5980, June 5 at 0100, tune-in just in time after KBC sign-off, to JBA
carrier, cutting off about 0100:39* before I am gazing intently at my watch;
that makes it 14.5 seconds later than two nights ago, or averaging 7.25 each.
This no longer meshes with the RF buzz ignition of my streetlite, still not on
by 0155, clear sky after sunset (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TAIWAN. 11470.181, June 4 at 1252, very poor S2 signal with music, 1300
unreadable announcement; off-frequency, presumed Sound of Hope and not a
Firedragon or CNR1 jammer which would be on-frequency; nor is // the obvious
CNR1 jammers on 11785. Aoki does show SOH 20 hours a day on 11470.088 and
subject to *jamming (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Correcting date on this one: Thu June 2, not June 4 as I somehow
wrote in original report (and Bambara is M-F only):
15120, June 2 at 2032-2033:45*, steady S9+10 open carrier/dead air. No doubt
it`s VOA Greenville tuning up for the Bambara broadcast an hour later. That`s
also on 13670, but checked right now, no carrier there; probably would be
tested as well, sooner or later (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1828 monitoring: confirmed by Jos? Miguel
Romero2, Spain: ``6190 USB Hamburguer Lokal Radio, 0628-0658, escuchada el 4 de
junio de 2016 en ingl?s con el programa DX World of
Radio, sintonia e ID, SINPO 44454. Audio:
https://app.box.com/s/oz07dh3p4xl68x5e6bb1dfwva9zaip8v
El programa fue escuchado por web SDR de Holanda; tentava de escucharlo desde
Valencia en Espa?a con Sangean ATS 909 sin resultado``. Manuel M?ndez, also in
Spain, says 6190 was JBA at 0625.
Confirmed Saturday June 4 at 1430 via Hamburger Lokalradio, 7265-CUSB: by Ivo
Ivanov, Bulgaria, reporting a weak signal. Also confirmed by me after 2230 UT
Saturday June 4 on WBCQ, 9329.9-CUSB, fair. Also confirmed UT Sunday June 5 at
0330 on WA0RCR at 13 minutes into show, so started at 0317; clear reception
tonight, not noisy (nearest lightning is 400+ miles away in northern New
Mexico). Next:

** U S A. 9330.045-CUSB, June 5 at 0111, this WBCQ is still on after 0100 with
something new, YL g.h. who seems very upset about something. And the WBCQ
online program schedules have finally been updated to show WOR at the correct
times, plus this lineup on Sat/UT Sun:

No further info about OYEP (shouldn`t that be OYE,P?), except it has two more
airtimes, on 5130 and 7490 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 11580, 11530, 7780, 7730, June 4 at 0533, at least these four Brother
HyStairical frequencies of WRMI are in dead air; while 7570 is playing pop
music, not // 9955 World Music. By 0537, as I come to 5015, that one is back to
BSing, and at 0539 so are 7730 and 7780, or rather presumed Overcomer Ministry
with someone else preaching, sounds African-American, as part of general
anti-RCC bigotry, asserting that the Jesuits run the CIA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12105, 9930, 9475, 5830, 5085, June 5 at 0108, all possible WTWW
frequencies are AWOL, and still so later in this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1370, June 4 at 1925 UT, I`m trying to hear KGNO Dodge City KS, since
I am much closer to it than usual, visiting Alva OK for the Nescatunga Arts
Festival. On caradio, first try just east of Alva finds some C&W music JBA, far
weaker than it should be for 5 kW ND at 161 km or 100 miles. Comparative
example: 1330 KNSS Wichita, [n? KFH] also 5 kW ND in daytime, is easily heard
in Enid, at 152 km or 94 miles. A few years ago I could also barely pick up
KGNO daytime as far away as just north of Enid, beyond the 1390 KCRC
desensitization.
Therefore I must conclude that KGNO is operating at much reduced power and/or
alternative antenna; if they have an STA allowing this, I`ve yet to spot it.
Has anyone? For a long time I suspected it was off the air completely (and
maybe it was), until some skywave helped it April 9 and 10 around sunrise and
sunset.
At 1950 UT, I`m slightly further but at a no-noise location in the Great Salt
Plains NWR on the way to Artesian water and hear a PSA and Johnny Cash tune;
very poor level but 1959 UT clear ID as ``1370 KGNO, THE classic country for
southwest Kansas`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 98.3, June 4 at 1931 UT, strong station with ``Peyote Country``?
slogan --- oh no, it`s ``Coyote Country`` as heard clearly later. Wide coverage
on an ex-Class A frequency, and still audible near Enid ending CBS News at 2207
UT with another non-ID. In fact, this station bumped an Enid translator from
98.3 to 98.5, which now provides some ACI within Enid.
Searching all frequencies for the slogan Coyote Country on the WTFDA FM
Database, http://db.wtfda.org/ gets 19 stations (including some translators;
and it seems coyote country is rather ill-defined), this one being KQZQ, Kiowa
KS, just across the border not far from Alva (site is definitely north of the
37th parallel), 97 kW, 208.9m HAAT. DB erroneously shows same slogan for KRDR
105.7 Alva which is sports talk. And another Coyote Country is listed not too
far away southward in OK, KWEY-FM 95.5 Clinton (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING

** VATICAN. 11729.965, June 5 at 0139, South-Asian accent in English says
Sunday Liturgy is to be followed by news; then into a story, something about
Jesus, a putative asst. leader of the RCC sect. Surprised it`s this far off
frequency, from SMG direct; English segment is supposedly 0140-0200, following
a third-of-an-hour each of Hindi, Tamil and Malayalam from 0040. Last year I
tried to sign up for e-mail from VR, hoping to get advance notice of special
broadcasts but I somehow got on the S Asian service mailing list, mainly about
the stuff the Pope has been doing (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 5100, June 4 at 0537, that big dead air carrier is back, S9+30;
roughly same level as 5085 WTWW. Sometimes on, sometimes not.
Surely others are hearing that, unlike weaker carriers I am now getting at not
quite exact multiples of 500 kHz, e.g. close to 10500, 11000, 11500, 12500,
13500, etc., etc. Got to be some device nearby. Did a neighbor just acquire an
inaccurate 500-kHz xtal calibrator and leave it on? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX

UNIDENTIFIED. 6011.6-USB approx., June 5 at 0123, as I am looking for The Voice
of Thy Conscience, instead I find a some very weak 2-way INTRUDERS, probably in
Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
