Yesterday June 16 around 1700-1810 UT.
Checked the remote SDR unit by Victor 4S7VK
in Piliyandala Ceylon, now Sri Lanka.
His IP Address changed always from day to day,
so I have to update my ZoneAlarm firewall-open through list each day.
Noise floor signal level is very HIGH these days.
In old days in 2011 - 2013 years Victor's Perseus signal was one of the
cleanest signals worldwide to mention,
in a level of -137dB, a dream value.
Yesterday on June 16, 2016 noise level on 21 MHz was -102dB,
increased on bands to -90dB in 60mb, -87dB in 75 mb.
Notings on Piliyandala remote unit:
CHINA special jamming against western broadcaster like BBCWS or VoA etc.
Some of these WHITE NOISE and SCRATCHING Metallic sound jammer
are 24hrs STILL on air, even when the BBCWS schedule show no service
on these channels.
These seemingly are local jamming on large metropole cities in China ?
like the USSR have done in Moscow and other big cities against Radio
Liberty.
Jamming signals are visible of mostly 10.2 kHz wide broadband blocks,
13590 at 1755 UT on June 16.
13695
11810 10.2 kHz wide
9410
7375
6195
6080
Two wideband CNR bcast programmes observed in 17-18 UT slot, like
CNR17 Lingshi in Kazakh 20 kHz wide on 11630 kHz.
CNR1 Beijing in Chinese 20 kHz wide on 11710 kHz at 1758 UT June 16.
Logs noted here in southern Germany at 0435 - 0455 UT, June 17:
9420.005 GRC VoGreece Avlis, with phone-in program at 0435 UT
S=9+20dB or -55dBm.
9935.004 GRC VoGreece Avlis, with phone-in program at 0440 UT
S=9+25dB or -45dBm.
9724.911 BRA RB2, poor S=5 on threshold level at 0445 UT
9664.946 BRA Voz Missionaria, rather strong this morning S=8-9 -80dBm
9645.423 BRA Bandeirantes S=6-7 Portuguese progr 0448 UT
9565.062 BRA BrasPortuguese fast reading sermon speaker, S=5-6 fair
SRDA fq signal varies some move 2-4 Hertz up and down.
9480even MDG New nice WCB signal, played rather non-religious
like West-African swinging music. At 0454-0455 UT station
or program provider ID given, ... '1640...' number ?
S=7-8 or -82dBm signal strength.
>From 0500 UT some logs of MA-NJ-US, and Edmonton Alberta CAN remote units:
5025even CUB Radio Rebelde Bauta Cuba program, nice audio, at 0502 UT
station ID given, frequs, www-address too, S=9+25dB or -45dBm
5040even CUB RHC Spanish sce, report from Peru, 'dinero systema en Peru'
Interview on economic in Peru. S=9+25dB or -49dBm,
but seemingly audio feed interference, low R Rebelde 5025 kHz
music program heard underneath. Seems an intermodulation on
Bauta site. 0503 UT June 17.
9790even CUB EMPTY CARRIER noted here, seemingly Quivican San Felipe
TITAN signal of CRI relay, ends normally at 0500 UT, but TX
was still on air, when checked at 0510, 0516, and 0522 UT.
At S=9+15dB level in Edmonton, Alberta CAN remote unit.
Empty carrier signal on Perseus screen showed some
120 / 240 / 360 Hertz strings either sideband,
and also 2 x 1650 Hertz distance away strings.
7259.956 UNIDentified string signal 'seen' in Alberta unit,
seemingly R Vanuatu again on air in 41mb at 0524 UT.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
** ALGERIA [non]. 9535, June 17 at 0448, S9 carrier atop RHC which seems
undermodulated, but it`s Issoudun, FRANCE, warming up for the RTA relay at
05-07, suppressing RHC signal; rather than RHC only in undermodulation, but it
is suptorted (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KURDISTAN [non]. 11600, June 17 at 0452, S8 a cappella singing, presumably
in Kurdish from Denge Kurdistanye, which per Aoki until 0500 is via FRANCE,
then PRIDNESTROVYE, contrary to HFCC registration as nothing but KCH =
Kishinov, Moldova = Grigoriopol, Pridnestrovye (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** NEW ZEALAND. 11690, June 17 at 0453, surprised to find RNZI on unscheduled
AM frequency, VG S9+20 in talk show. At 0501 recheck it has changed to normal
11725.
According to own website sked, ``updated 16/05/2016``, it`s supposed to be on
15720 until 0458, 11725 from 0459. But that`s not all:
6170, June 17 at 1213, surprised to find RNZI on this frequency before normal
*1259, and a VG S9+20 signal indicating it`s on the NNE antenna more USward.
Furthermore, the other transmitter is also on! // 9700 is only S9, in song ``It
Breaks My Heart``, outro as Regina Spector, 12:14 TC by YL host, segment
previews for rest of All Night Programme, then Vic Damone. 1240 in a comedy
segmentte, including bits of ``Star Spangled Banner`` at 1245.
Normally only one transmitter is in use, no DRM, 9700 on NNW antenna until
1258, then from 1259 on 6170 via NNE antenna, better for us, but soon losing
out into the dayside. So I`m listening carefully to the QSY announcement at
1257 on 6170: ``closing this frequency, moving to 6170`` --- duh, canned
announcer doesn`t know he`s already on 6170. But it goes off at 1258*, so I
retune to 9700 and it is also off now. At *1259, 6170 comes back on with Bell
Bird IS, presumably having switched transmitters, seems about same strength as
before, S9 at 1308 with `Dateline Pacific`. At 1308 I find that // 9700 is also
back on now! And it`s now VG at S9+20, so it too has made the switch to NNE
antenna. I hope they keep this up as much better for North America. Possibly
they would explain these anomalies as part of their
third-Wednesday-of-the-month maintenance day altho it`s Saturday already (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. UNIDENTIFIED: 6908.50-USB, June 17 at 0040, after finding no
pirates a semihour earlier, now here`s something very strange: Nixon`s first
oath of office as Vice President in 1952, beside Eisenhower and Truman,
apparently authentic historic recording but edited such that he repeats certain
phrases of the oath, as if to mock Nixon that decades later he might violate
them. Followed by heartfelt solo of ``America the Beautiful`` by old-style
operatic tenor with exaggerated enunciation, two verses; and prayer by a rabbi.
Then the whole thing repeats circa 0049. I`ve had enough when another repeat
starts. RTTY on 6910.0 is nicely notched out by the NRD-545. Nixon ranged S3-S6
above noise level of S3-S4. Then I check HF Underground and Freeradiocaf?, but
no one else has reported this. Searching HFU on the name Nixon gets lots of
interesting hits, but not this, and seems no other pirates have ever been
reported on exactly this frequency. Please QSL (Glenn Hauser, OK
, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 5980, June 17 at 0101, JBA carrier, as I stand by for the Chaski
cut-off, which comes about when I calculated it should: 0101:55.5*, which is 72
seconds later than last catch June 6 until 0100:43.5*, or averaging 6.55
seconds later per noctem (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SAUDI ARABIA. 11820.05, June 16 at 2035, S7 BSKSA in Arabic not Qur`an at
the moment, perpetually off+frequency worsening the ACI from 11825 WRMIBS, but
mostly evitable by LSB tuning. Sometimes for my nap I can`t find anything
better than this on SW for soporific music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1830 monitoring: confirmed Thu June 16 at
2100 on WRMI 13695, S9+30! Also confirmed Thu June 16 at 2330 on WBCQ

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12160, June 16 at 1851, BST-1 caradio memory scan stops on Alex Jones
just as WWCR transmitter dumps off the air for about a minute, back on a bit,
and off again after 1853.
9980, June 16 at 2037, WWCR provides us with more dead air, carrier still on,
at S9+10, not during a BS segment (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Re what WBCQ had to say about KJES, George Thurman in Houston tells
me, ``someone named "JOHN" has informed Al Weiner that he has bought KJES and
that it will be returning to the air. 2 XMTRS and 2 antennas`` --- so it wasn`t
Scott Becker as I had guessed.
Then George sends a 36-second clip of this, and I copy exactly what Allan said:
```OK, John, one of our engineers that helped build the station, said, ``Hi
Allan, wanted to announce that I was out in New Mexico about two weeks ago, I
was touring KJES shortwave. I liked the station so much, I BOUGHT IT!!`` There
you go. ``I got two transmitters, one an ELCOR SW-50, the other an ELCOR SW-25
with a solid state modulator, also got two rhombic antennas, all the spare
parts and test equipment, so look for a new shortwave station soon`` --- well,
good, good John! Good man, good, John, great, God bless. OK``` So will it stay
on the Lord`s Ranch property near Vado? And John, WHO??? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. 11775, June 16 at 2029, open carrier/dead air instead of
Dead Gene Scott, on Anguilla`s S9+10 signal; and same DA on WWCR 13845 S9 past
2037+. Wake up, Melissa, in the LA uplink (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** YEMEN [non]. 11860, June 17 at 1248, Republic of Yemen Radio, presumably via
SAUDI ARABIA, with Arabic YL, S2-S7, which means it`s better than it has been
for a long time; some bits of music. 1307 now more music, S5-S9, then more talk
past 1330; at 1338 Arabic is S7-S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7489.93-AM, UT Sat June 18 at 0120 I start listening to WBCQ`s `Allan
Weiner Worldwide` which is running way long this week having started at 0000.
At 0130 he mentions some program info (which ought to be announced immediately
on the website, but this is the best/only way to get it): new show confirmed,
by Chris Hynek(?), he hopes he pronounces correctly but does not spell, taking
over the 8 pm ET Wed slot on 7490 [UT Thu 0000], `Understanding Your
Adversary`, maybe already from next week (that would replace an AWWW
placeholder playback). Allan likes the title/concept but no further info about
it.
Then Allan says Tom Taylor`s European Music Radio will be on 7490, Saturday at
5 pm ET (which agrees with TT`s own latest publicity: ``European Music Radio
Relays: 18th June 2016: 17.00 to 18.00 (Eastern Time) on 7490 KHz - to Central
& North America via WBCQ``. Unfortunately when mentioning this on WOR 1830 I
quoted from June BDXC-UK Communication which said: ``Saturday 18 June 2016:
2300 to 0000 (US Eastern Time) on 7490 kHz - Central & North America via
WBCQ,`` which I dutifully converted correctly to Sunday June 19 at 0300-0400
UT!).
Furthermore the WRTH A-16 update, even in its v.2 had yet a different time!
Which we quoted originally in DXLD: ``0400-0500 .....s. NAm,CAm 7490bcq* 18th
June``. All this no doubt caused by people refusing to express schedules in the
first place, strictly in UT days and times from which there can be no
confusion. So there you have three contradictory times for it, but most likely
Saturday at 21-22 UT when reception on 7490v will be worthless out here, unlike
either of the later times.
Another new/special program, `Tom Cole? Theater`, with No Longer Amen? which is
oldtime radio drama airing several times around the July 4 weekend on all
frequencies, starting on 7490, June 26 at 5 pm [ET = Sunday 21 UT --- bumping
`Marion`s Attic` ???]
Allan adds that tonight 3250 is not on the air, because the modulation
oscillator crapped out, and he`s going to have to repair it. Is also on 5130,
which I then check at 0136 and find 5129.9-AM combined with the noise level =
S9+10, i.e. very poor (and it`s not synchronized, evidently running again thru
Area 51). 0138 finally Allan`s benedixion, but it`s never at the very end as he
goes on with wrap-up comments until 0144 ceding to Brother Scare. I think he
said something else would follow on 5130, but `Open Your Eyes People` [sic] is
not on that schedule until 0200-0300. Axually, various callers/writers/and even
Allan himself keep referring to ``5110`` despite having been forced to move to
5130v a few months ago (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9475 & 5830, June 18 at 0129, both possible WTWW-1 frequencies are
off (and so are WTWW-2 as usual from 5085, 9930), but 12105, WTWW-3 is
unusually VG this late, S9+20 at 0141 with the extra SFAW/PPP hatehour in
English, while 5830 & 9475 are still off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
