ARGENTINA. 11710.70, Sept 30 at 0117, RAE is only S3, with music,
supposedly nothing but music, counting down until the Oct 5 relaunch as
RAE Argentina al Mundo. But unless they boost the old thing at General
Pacheco up to something close to 100 kW (and some decent antenna gain?) it
will still be a strain to hear it.
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
ARGENTINA 11710.699 Much better signal than Glenn state above,
- I guess the night before were bad SF condition?
S=9+15dB or -67dBm typical signal of Latin American canciones, mens singer,
drums, guitar. Clear audio quality at 0418 UT Sept 30.
(wb df5sx, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Sept 30)
EGYPT. 9965.2, Sept 30 at 0129, R. Cairo is S5 with no modulation audible,
but doing well considering the propagation conditions; yet nothing audible
now or at 0155 around the 9315 blob if it really be on.
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
EGYPT 12085.060 Radio Cairo Arabic, rather weak S=6-7 or -90dBm at 0445UT.
(wb df5sx, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Sept 30)
MEXICO [and non]. 550, Sept 30 at 0147, M&W conversing in strange
language, soon recognizable as Low German, sort of like Dutch; mentions El
Paso. Has to be the Chihuahuan with Mennonite programming, XEPL, Ciudad
Cuauhtémoc, 5000/150 watts. At first dominant, from SW/NE, but soon losing
out to KTRS with 314-area code and other St Louis ads.
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
MEXICO 6184.999 XEPPM R Educacion Mexico City, rather poor signal
observed at MA-NY remote east coast rx. S=7 or -78dBm signal noted 0455 UT
on Sept 30. Mexican folk music played so far.
(wb df5sx, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Sept 30)
U S A. 7490.05-AM, UT Fri Sept 30 at 0055, Pam and her ukulele are
performing the ``99 years`` song, i.e. an `Allan Weiner Worldwide`
playback on WBCQ. Sufficient signal at first, but by 0123 recheck when
Brother Scare is on, quite weaker than usual, only S8, (while one band
higher, 9265 WINB is still S9+20). Maybe 7490 is underpowered too? Seems
the path slightly further north into the sub-auroral zone would not
account for this.
5129.8+, UT Fri Sept 30 at 0057 with WBCQ The Planet IS and ID, prior to
sign-on, as the only scheduled broadcast on UT Fridays is `Just Right`
from 0100 and it start with an old-time-radio clip. On the 5130 sked I see
something else I had not noticed before:
``We 5130 08:30PM 09:00PM ET 0030 0100 UT [THURSDAYS] Antena DX``

U S A. 7505.04v, Sept 30 at 0121, WRNO is back on with gospel music, good
signal level but somewhat undermodulated, and varying slightly as I
measure it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
USA Nothing heard on 5130, 7505, neither 7490 around 0500 UT Sept 30.
