DX/SWL/MEDIA PROGRAMS

WORLD OF RADIO SCHEDULE
http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html
** BRAZIL [and non]. 6040.7, March 12 at 0100, Curitiba`s R?dio RB2 a weak
signal all by itself, nothing to het! Since The Mighty KBC is back on 6145
only, after testing 6040.0 last week (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 6180, March 12 at 0122, RNA/RNB is off again, uncovering a VP other
which would be CRI English from East Turkistan (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** BURUNDI [non]. 15420, Saturday March 12 at 1827, presumed R. Itahuka again
in dead air during its only weekly hour, via MADAGASCAR, S7-S5; at 1840 by
really concentrating, I think I hear some modulation, just barely. Isn`t
anybody paying attention at Talata, MBR and/or wherever this originate? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 2749-USB, March 12 at 0152 UT, roboYL with maritime weather in
English, S9+10 vs QRN level merely S9; VCS Halifax via Chebogue NS site
scheduled starting at 0140 UT. Nothing heard on 2598 now, but see NEWFOUNDLAND
earlier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 3330-CUSB, March 12 at 0127, CHU is still off, but 7850-CUSB is
still on (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MADAGASCAR. 17640, March 12 at 1831, MWV English is the OSOB at S9+10, with
jazz. Another neat reception from the other side of the world. Meanwhile, where
is everybody else who could be broadcasting to us on 16m, from even closer?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NEWFOUNDLAND. 2598-USB, March 12 at 0135 UT, roboYL in English with marine
weather, citing some UTCs and some Eastern Standards; vs S9+10 lightning
crashes. Scheduled starting at 0137 UT is VOK, Labrador via both Cartwright and
Hopedale, but if timing is precise, preceding it from 0107 UT is VOK via St
Anthony site. Nothing on 2749 now, but see CANADA. I THINK all these stay on
same UT schedules despite imposition of DST, right? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6945.0-USB, March 12 at 0101, S9+25 rock music; 0114, ``Come
Together``; got to be Wolverine Radio, yes, catch an ID at 0123 after a few
more tunes, and off at next check 0141. By comparison, 6855-AM WRMI was only
S9+10 and relatively undermodulated (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. Tuning thru OTA TV subchannels, circa 1900 UT March 12, I see some
changes from OKC, namely on
RF 24, KOKH 25-2, CHARGE!
And on the other Sinclair station:
RF 33, KOCB 34-2, TBD.
These must have happened in the last few days. So I bring up Market 50, OKC at
rabbitears.info which has already caught up with this info. Following the
links, first about CHARGE!
It`s in many markets, mainly Sinclair stations;
http://watchcharge.com
``CHARGE! is a new free broadcast network featuring action programming
including movies, series and sports entertainment. Watch action stars,
every-day heroes and insane athletes engaged in battles, chases, showdowns and
so much more. CHARGE! Ready for Action.``
http://watchcharge.com/schedule/
TBD doesn`t mean the listing is to-be-determined --- that is now the NAME of
this network, in many markets, ONLY Sinclair stations. About:
``You love TV. And you love the internet. So you?re definitely gonna love TBD:
a new free broadcast network that combines the best of both worlds. We handpick
the most entertaining stuff from the most creative creators and put it on your
TV for a new adventure every day. Everything from culinary capers, jaw-dropping
action, hilarious pranks and comedy, music, fitness, gaming, or just random
awesomeness that you never knew you needed in your life. If it?s what?s new or
what?s next, it?s on TBD.``
http://tbd.com/schedule
Consulting W9WI.com to remind us of what used to be on these channels:
25.2, was Grit
34.2, was GetTV
--- so are these merely name changes or successor networks of same sources? No,
GetTV and Grit still exist in many other markets.
I can safely say I never found any programming on either I wanted to watch nor
likely on their replacements, but will keep an eye on skeds.
How does KGNE-LD 38 Sherman TX, no further info, get listed by rabbitears.info
as inside the OKC market? Yet when clicking on Market 50 to show all the towns
therein, nothing outside OK in KS or TX. (Sherman is right across the Red River
from OK, but no closer southern OK towns are with ``OKC``. Possibly legacy of
Sherman being in the Ardmore OK-Sherman-Denison TX market thanks to KXII-12.
But the presence of that CBS/NBC affiliate kept the OKC market away.)
Also bunched as part of the OKC market: K19IR-D Enid, which is not and never
has been on the air, anyhow flagged as off the air.
But rabbitears still lists TV-OK as if still existing:
TVOK, Retro on 1, M-FOX on 2, Azteca on 3 for all these:
KXOK-LD Enid physical ch 31
WQOS306 Enid physical ch 32 [was relay to Lamont, Ponca]
K35JY-D Lamont still listed
KTEW-LD Ponca City physical ch 18 still listed, all same lineups
The Enid ones, and surely resultantly the other two, have been gone how many
years now, three or two? I research in DXLD archives. Yes, last seen on July
20, 2015 as in DXLD 15-29, but they were out of order for months before that,
as I frequently reported.
Some -LD or -D translator stations in OKC I have never been able to confirm
here, but could be on the air, including, also of interest:
K47MU-D Concho OK ch 47, only with First Nations Experience network, which also
exists in some other areas with significant Indian populations. Concho is
unincorporated, and not even in index of Rand McNally Large-Scale Road Atlas,
but Wikipedia knows it is in Canadian county = west side of OKC (Glenn Hauser,
Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 1520, March 12 at 0155 UT, KOKC with a gun show explaining exactly
where to shoot people to cause the most damage. Good to know! Outro as
`Frontlines of Freedom` on a growing network of outlets (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA [non]. Received circa Feb 13, 2017, but just now added as #s 81-84
to my QSL Gallery,
http://www.worldofradio.com/QSL.html
are images of QSLs from James Branum for Mennonite Radio and Broad Spectrum
Radio as heard in Dec 2015 and Jan 2016 via WBCQ 5109.7-CUSB, along with two
more cards from him. As I told him in a thank-you, the best kind of QSL, a
surprise since I had not even requested them directly, but he consulted my
reports archived at bclnews.it as shown on one of the cards. He had been
catching up with a backlog (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 5025.0, March 12 at 0106, R. Rebelde is off again, but a JBA carrier
here. Presumed R. Quillabamba, not significantly off-frequency to either side
now. From traces of modulation, with one radio into each ear, I try to match it
to RebeldeFM on 1620, presumably the station playing music, and to 1180 main
Rebelde in a b?isbol game, but 5025 doesn`t mesh with either (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 5980, March 12 at 0059, JBA carrier from R. Chaski, expecting it to
cut off circa 0104 as projected slippage from last check 5 nights ago, but
recheck at 0103:20 it`s already off, so must have reset again earlier than
usual in the cycle (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ROMANIA. 7325, March 12 at 0143, RRI with `DX Mailbag` in English,
acknowledging a bunch of reception reports, but seems he reads whatever they
say even if obviously wrong, like someone in India hearing RRI on ``73-72``,
and another report dated Dec 31, 2017. 0146 change to `Thru the Looking Glass`,
commentary about threat to liberal democracy by increasing populism in Europe
and USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1868 monitoring: not confirmed Saturday
March 11 at several chex between 1530 and 1600 on 7265-CUSB Hamburger
Lokalradio via UTwente SDR --- just S Asian music from CRI and CCI from the
other Chinese station, but both weaker than usual. In three weeks, DST should
move this to 1430 UT, further lessening CCI. Confirmed Sat March 11 at 2330 on
WBCQ, 9329.85v-CUSB, good (from next week will be 2230). Also confirmed on
1860-AM, WA0RCR at S9+30, UT Sun March 12 at 0429 about 3 minutes in, so
started circa 0426 (Also one UT hour earlier from next week). Next; DST shifts
one UT hour earlier start here for some but not all:
Sun 1130 HLR 9485-CUSB to SW
Sun 2330 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
Mon 0300v WBCQ 5130v Area 51 to WSW
Mon 0330 WRMI 9955 to SSE
Mon 2330 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
Tue 0030 WRMI 7730 to WNW
Tue 1100 WRMI 9955 to SSE, 6855 to WNW
Tue 2130 WRMI 15770 to NE, 6855 to WNW
Tue 2200 WRMI 9955 to SSE
Tue 2330 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
Wed 1030 WRMI 5850 to NW, 6855 to WNW
Wed 1315.5 WRMI 9955 to SSE, 6855 to WNW
Wed 2100 WBCQ 7490v to WSW
Wed 2330 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9395, WRMI, tho nominally Oldies, 24/7, is not always so. After the
Winterfest special repeat presumably until 0600 March 12, checked at 0652 with
`Your Weekend Show`, Bob Biermann preaching against lavish lifestyles of some
end-time-coming preachers. Next check at 1826 March 12, soul music at S9-S8,
1837 Beatles` ``Strawberry Fields Forever`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 7490.136, Sat March 12 at 2219, this WBCQ is on early again, with
dramatic dialog by amateurish actors, about a gorilla and a graveyard, but
plenty of SFX, and no Hammond organ music, so it`s not `Unshackled`. Nor is
this the kind of thing which was running here in February, from Atlantic Oldies
2NG. But what? No info on the WBCQ website, of course. Recheck at 2247, now a
rock song about Jesus Christ. See 5129.8 log for possible identity.
2259 another song interrupted and no program outro, ID, and 2300 `Ride of
Valkyries` to intro `Shortwave Saturday Night`, as J. P. spends the first half
hour criticizing ``Secretary of State Tillerson`` who seems to be dismantling
the DOS on behalf of acting presidents Trump & Bannon. Hey America, wake up!
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5129.8, March 12 at 0103, this WBCQ is S9+25 but noisy, in a version
of ``Jingle Bells``.
Regarding last night`s non-AWWW programming on 5129.8 after 0200 UT March 11,
John Carver in mid-North Indiana replies, ``I lost 7490 right around 0200. When
I went to 5130, AWWW was already off and the next program was running. I was
already upset about missing most of another AWWW so didn't hang around there
but if I had to guess I would say it was `Tom Call Theater` playing at that
time.`` Could that also be what I had on 7490 before 2300 March 11, q.v.?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12050, March 12 at 1834, WEWN YL in Spanish, distorted with humbuzz,
and splatter building up again, detectable at least between 12020 and 12095
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9930, Sat March 12 at 1902, WTWW-2 with Ted advertising ARRL, 1903.6
late start to `Theater Organ In the Ozarx`, intro by unID other announcer who
says IN, while Bob Heil says FROM, and I prefer OF, so I can abbr. it TOOTO
instead of TOFTO or TOITO. It *may* be a new episode, but the modulation
distortion is so bad I won`t listen any further.
2130 recheck, 9930 has Ted DJing with classic rock at S9+20; but 9475 WTWW-1 is
OFF! So is 12105, WTWW-3, the latter absence not at all unusual. Maybe Ted
should be working on the down transmitter instead. 9930 music still going at
2220.
9474.96, March 12 at 0123 check, WTWW-1 is back on and weakened to only S4, so
I take the opportunity to measure it: always off-frequency to low side (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 3215, UT Sunday March 12 at 0113, WWRB confirmed on, lo-fi paranoid
gospel huxters gabbing at S9+45. No QSY yet to 5050 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** ANGUILLA. 6090, March 12 at 0721, Caribbean Beacon is free of distortion!
Because there is no modulation at all, just dead air at S9+20, too long to be a
mere pause for a dead DGS cigar puff. Maybe something to do with DST change in
USA? But // 5935 WWCR is nominal, no problem there.
11775, how about day frequency from same transmitter? March 12 at 1751,
``improved`` so that PMS is audible at modulation peak spikes only, still a
total loss (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COLOMBIA. 5910.188, March 12 at 0724, Alcarav?n Radio is talking rather than
musicking at the moment, S9 to S7, this far off-frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6000, Sunday March 12 at 0722, no Esperanto from RHC, in fact no
signal at all here or on any other 49 or 60-meter frequency. Check for next
airing to have been earlied an hour?
11760, March 12 at 1501, RHC is still in Spanish, but wrapping up, and 1503
finally into Esperanto, ex-1600v during standard time. Opening mentions the
times and frequencies for three broadcasts, but due to fading the only one I
can copy translates to ``Sunday 0700 on 6000``. Unlike the middle emission, the
first one nominally stays at 0700 yearound, but has been extremely unreliable
as to which frequency and exact timing. Remains to be heard whether the third
airing will remain Sunday 2130 on 15370, as shifting of other scheduling may
affect that. Check the transmission sked linked from the Esperanto website:
http://radiohc.cu/eo/interesantes/frecuencias
and it`s *still* for A-16, as they never got around to putting up B-16! Some
times may be more matching again now, but don`t count on any detail to be
accurate.
9820, March 12 at 1331, RHC with TC for 9:30, news headlines, so confirmed as a
running dog of Yanqui Imperialism, Cuba has made the early switch to DST of
UT-4 instead of UT-5. In case you think my characterization is unwarranted,
there can be no other explanation for Cuba moving the date ahead from the first
Sunday in April to the second Sunday in March, exactly following what the USA
did several years ago. At least there will still be no disconnect between Miami
and Habana local time, which is obviously what matters on the Communist
Antille. As for any DST at all in Cuba, as a tropical country with less
variation in SR/SS times (one sesquihour during the year), it makes even less
sense there than in temperate zones.
This means `En Contacto` and other Spanish (but not all language) programming
should now be appearing one UT hour earlier: yes, at 1337 recheck it`s already
underway from 1335 instead of 1435 Sundays, also on 9710, 9640, 11760, etc.
Prof. Coro is talking about propagation, says their A-17 schedule is already
prepared, but will not be implemented until 9 April (rather than 26 March
everywhere else). For the rest of the program, it`s mostly Arnie to be heard.
It seems he is now the co-host rather than a mere segment contributor. No sign
of Manolo de la Rosa any more. ?Qu? pasa con Manolo; se ha jubilado? Marta R?os
continues as nominal anchor, as she lists credits ending at 1350, no mention of
Manolo! DST shifts normally early the two repeats to 2240v instead of 2340v,
and UT Monday 0135 instead of 0235 on lots of other frequencies.
Normal DST changes include: English hour at 19 instead of 20, still on 15140?
Yes, English at 1910 March 12 check, following Arabic at 1801. Next English
should be at 23 instead of 22 (yes, later, instead of earlier) on 11880,
re-becoming // 5040 at 23 instead of 00 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 6855, Sunday March 12 at 1320, that Japo-Mississippian gospel
huxtress is still audible and // much stronger 9955, after DST shift, altho
WRMI 9955 skedgrid still claims UT-5 difference instead of UT-4. Must be
`Living the Bible` as for 9 am ET. No info about her on the Programming page.
How about WWCR? Not listed. WINB? Listed, but no link or info. Then I search
her out to Vicksburg MS:
http://namihira.org/about.shtml
``Mieko Namihira runs an International radio ministry covering the US, Japan,
Europe, and Africa. If you would like to listen see the schedules below``:
http://namihira.org/radio_schedule.shtml
includes this WRMI airing on 9955 only, and some more on Radio Africa, with
long-gone 17790 frequency instead of 21675. The only other SW station on her
list is T8WH. Doesn`t she know about WINB? If I had worldwide SW broadcasts, I
would do my best to keep schedule info current. O, right, I do (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9395, March 12 at 0734, WRMI Oldies finally heard with a song
announcement by DJ, not Biermann? I`m falling asleep and can`t read my own
scribbling, about to suffer another hour of sleep deprivation thanks to the
imposition of DST by nefarious forces (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 11980-12145 approx., March 12 at 1753, WEWN YL in Spanish very
distorted on fundamental 12050 and splatter built up to at least this range
(maybe more if 12160 WWCR were not in the way), and worst below 12100. Here we
go again. Does anyone else care? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VATICAN [non]. 11875, March 12 at 1336, S9+10 in Russian, very clearly
enunciated, keeps talking about bog, i.e. R. Vaticana relay via IBB TINIAN,
violating Separation of Church and State. Recheck at 1358, already off tho in
HFCC as 1330-1400 daily, 250 kW, 329 degrees from ``MHL``, a MISTAKE, which
means Marshall Islands, while Tinian is in the Northern Marianas = MRA! Hey,
they are only 3 megameters apart, so what`s the difference? 5 other entries for
VAT via Tinian in HFCC also show MHL. Only the pope himself is allegedly
infallible.
With own SMG site in danger of deletion, what will become of VR relays
elsewhere? March 12 from 0145 the Greenville relay in Spanish was still going
on 7305. The IBB ones, I think, are all on an exchange basis. Would someone
like to add up the transmitter hours to see if they match? But if power levels
don`t match, are the hours adjusted to equalize consumption costs?
Optimistically, IBB plans for about 21 relay transmissions via SMG for the
entire A-17 season. But only one VR via ``MHL``. Reciprocally, about 20 VR
relays via IBB PHT = Tinang, Philippines including the 11875 Russian I logged,
moved from Tinian (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
