** ALBANIA. 9854.97, Sept 13 at 0126, R. Tirana IS can be detected amid the
self-imposed humroar, S5 signal (while CRI relay 9570 attains S9+25 and clearly
modulated). At 0135 YL can be heard talking but useless under humroar level.
This defect has now been going on for about three months! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** AUSTRALIA. 2325 & 2485 & 4835, Sept 13 at 1207, the Northern Territory VL8
Shower Stations are indeed back on the air, as had been promised for 2330 UT
Sept 12 (Rob Wagner says they were back earlier than that). 2325 is S9+, 2485
is S6, and 4835 is S9+10, seems all playing same song. At 1245, 2325 is in
talk, 2485 is JBA but unseems // with music? And 4835 is S9+10 talk // 2325.
4835 is still audible at 1323, S8. My sunrise today: 1213 UT. Now the ABC will
be deciding whether enough Northern Territorians missed them during the
deliberate outage to justify continuing them long-term (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** EGYPT. 9964.88, Sept 13 at 0116, R. Cairo is JBM Arabic with whine, S9 and
also irrelevant Cuban pulse jamming; while 9315 is usual mess of garblenoise
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUINEA. 9650, Sept 12 at 0624, S7 music, presumed Conakry, which I don`t
often hear after its *0600v (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDIA. 9380, Sept 13 at 0105, Hindi pop music at S8, much better than usual,
from Vividh Bharati, 250 kW Aligarh scheduled 0100-0435 per
http://qsl.net/vu2jos/sw/freq.htm
while // 9870 seems same music, but very weak, despite 500 kW from Bengaluru at
0025-0440 (in the absence of TURKEY, q.v.) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** MEXICO. Re: ``700, Sept 8 at 1153, Radio Red ID, presumed XEDKR Guadalajara,
which relays XERED 1110 M?xico DF; thought I heard an FM 92.1 mentioned, but
not listed as such in Jalisco, and in the DF it`s on 88.1. 700 listed as
10000/150 watts (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)``
XHRED and XHFO swapped formats in June, so you heard 92.1. I suspect Red FM is
not much longer for this world (Raymie Humbert, AZ, Sept 8, WTFDA Forum via
DXLD)
** RUSSIA. 7295, Sept 12 at 1245, song at poor S9 signal, fluttering but clear,
while 7345 covered by Chinese; i.e. R. Sakha, Yakutsk; 7295 goes off a few
seconds after a 5-pip timesignal ends late at 1300:07.5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** SRI LANKA. 11905, Sept 13 at 0114, SLBC carrier is VP S2, but enough to
recognize the music pr?lude from 0114:44, and the 2+1 mis-timesignal ending at
0115:09.5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TURKEY. 9870 & 9770 & 9830, Sept 13 at 0112, Voz de Turqu?a is missing from
both nominal frequencies and even the frequently used mistaken one! Can`t be
propagation, as e.g. 9964.88 Cairo is S9.
5960, Sept 13 at 0130, as I continue bandscanning, eventually find S9+5 Spanish
here and it is VOT! 5960 is normally employed only in the B-seasons for English
to North America at 2300-2350v, so have they made unexpected S-season changes,
also affecting other broadcasts? Or is this a double whammy, not only wrong
frequency for 0100 Spanish, but wrong season? Out of the transmitter memory
bank, perhaps.
Ending feature `Costumbres de los Turcos` with music theme bit identical to
opening of program as they always duplicate intros and outros, saving a lot of
produxion work. I can`t be sure it`s starting or ending until the next item at
0132: `Pregunta del Mes`, which I can`t copy fully, but something about someone
who `falleci?`, and multiple-choice answers, A, B, and C. (So with three
separate entries during a month, no way not to win, if you can only understand
the choices --- but you still have to win a draw after that.) 0134 on to vocal
music. TRT lux out as 5960 is not otherwise occupied in this A-season, so in
the clear. Now where is the second one? Never find it, but at 0152, 5960 is
already off.
Now I recheck the 31m channels, and in the meantime they have come back after
some op woke up: at 0152, 9770 is poor at S7, and // 9870 is even poorer at S6,
in sign-off mentioning Spanish schedule but I bet not 5960! Then into IS
playing past 0153 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1842 monitoring: confirmed Sunday Sept 11 at 2330 on
WBCQ 9330.047v-CUSB, S9+10. Also confirmed UT Monday Sept 12 at 0030 on WRMI

7490.028, Sept 13 at 0625! Presumed WBCQ is on, a guy certain that the New
World Order is imminent allowing the Soviet Union to send troops into the USA
to put down insurrexions`` --- what nonsense --- being interviewed on phone by
YL, sounds sorta like Joyce Riley, but not? Tomorrow`s topic: Kennedy
assassination. This must be old stuff. 3-minute commercial breaks are
introduced but edited out; phone 522-5008 but no area code?
Finally mentions guest name: Bill Cooper! Long deceased, but one of Allan
Weiner`s old buddies. Note I had heard 7490 unID carrier on Sept 6 at 0523.
Yes, WBCQ schedule for 7490 now shows 7 days a week:
0400 0700 UTC The Hour Of The Time / The Road To Paradise
Apparently Cooper has been resurrected by this ``Church of Paradise``:

** U S A. 1170, Sept 13 at 0150 UT, gospel huxter still QRMing underneath KFAQ
Tulsa, i.e. WWVA OH as already identified; ``Jesus is coming back on such &
such a date``, still failing to null toward KFAQ and me, presumably 50 kW ND
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED [non]. Re: ``810, Sept 6 at 0230 UT...phone starts 615 (but not an
AC which would be E Tennessee)".
And so it is: WMGC in Murfreesboro ('burb of Nashville), sporting a SS: MEX
format, and known by some to cheat with day power at night. I'd bet six months
pay on this. I had access to a mid-Tennessee remote receiver a few months ago;
WMGC had an inordinantly loud night signal on most tries (GREG HARDISON, CA, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1480.83 & 1499.17, Sept 13 at 0144 UT, approx. spots for JBA
carriers hetting 1480 and 1500 stations, presumed parasitic spurs out of some
1490 station, still detectable (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 3325.0, Sept 13 at 1211, good S8-S9 carrier, but too bad it`s not
modulated. At 1217 maybe a trace of JBM, either from this or an understation.
Both Bougainville PNG, and Palangkaraya INDONESIA are right on frequency, so no
het to separate them, nor even subaudible het. Most likely the carrier atop is
NBC and the other one RRI. At 1244, still S5 carrier about level with the
noise. 1323 down to a JBA carrier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9533.30-USB, Sept 13 at 0108, weak 2-way intruders in colloquial
Spanish, ``cambios``, intermittent with Cuban pulse jamming bleed all the way
from 9565 where it`s completely unneeded. Seems I am the only one ever
reporting these SS intruders inside the SWBC bands --- no one else cares? Sure,
we can`t identify them, but should be documented! Native speakers/professional
monitors might be able to extract clues (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9787-9811, Sept 13 at 0122, OTH radar pulses; typical ~25 kHz
bandwidth associated with CYPRUS? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

I have logged a few of Radio Taiwan International's English language
broadcasts here in rural central Alaska a few times, sometimes better then
others.
On Wednesday September 7th at 1547UTC, I logged the English broadcast on
11685khz. I would give this reception a SINPO Rating of 22232. The signal
was poor with lots of static, fading and noise plus if you listen closely,
you'll clearly hear interference from another radio station on the same or
nearby channels.
I made a 4 1/2 minute recording. At about 6 seconds in, you very clearly
hear a male say "Radio Taiwan International". What follows sounds like a
language learning segment, english and mandarin or other asian language.
That 4 1/2 mintue recording is here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbAYz6O7JNc

On May 22nd, 2016 at 1123UTC, I heard an English broadcast from RTI as well
on 11600khz. The audio quality was not that great, it sounded like a
serious echo was going on. It appears to be some kind of interview program
between a man and a female RTI presenter. The signal overall was on the
lower side of good.
Here is a recording:

On September 8th at 0356UTC, I logged the 15320khz english broadcast. I
would give it a SINPO rating of 12112.There is ALOT of static/atmospheric
noise on the channel and the signal is very weak. I recorded 5 minutes
worth and took the 3 best segments of the reception and put them together.
In the first part of this one clip which is 11 seconds, a male gives out a
frequency and time schedule. In the second part of this clip which is 9
seconds, the same man gives out what I assume is the PO Box mailing address
for RTI. In the 3rd and final part of this clip, that same man says simply
"Radio Taiwan International"
I warn you, the reception is really rough and If I didn't know what to look
for, this would be impossible to have nailed down. Here's the link to the
audio:

On June 25th, 2016 at 1112UITC, I heard an English broadcast on 7445khz.
The signal was about an 8 out of 10 overall. There was only light fading
with no interference from other stations and nearly no atmospheric
noise/interference.
My recording starts with what sounds like a native English speaker talking
about the origin of boat races.
A 7 minute recording of my reception can be hear here:

This reception above is slightly above normal/average, but not by too much.
One RTI staffer was a bit surprised I heard the 7445khz signal so well.
