** BRAZIL. 6180 & 11780, March 25 at 0238, RNB/RNA are still off the air for
the fifth night in a row. Standard inquiry (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CANADA. 1610, March 25 at 0459 UT, CHHA Toronto as ``La voz de nuestra
comunidad``, plus ``Gran Radioth?n, 24, 25 y 26 de marzo`` with street address,
AC 416 phone, then political ad for the Ecuadorian elexion (the front-runner`s
first name is Lenin); 0501 ``Radio Voces Latinas`` ID, ``la mejor m?sica
latina(?) y canadiense``, then such music. On website http://chha1610am.ca I
finally find what the Radiothon is about: ``Radiothon "Todos somos Per?" un
milagro m?s de Monse?or Romero en su 37 aniversario de su asesinato! GRAN
RADIOTHON "TODOS SOMOS PERU" ESTE VIERNES 24, SABADO 25 Y DOMINGO 26``. Does
this mean programming pre?mptions on CHHA 1610?
This refers to the El Salvadorian priest who was in fact assassinated on 24
March 1980, but what`s the connexion to Per? in particular? He`s been working
miracles there since? Wikipedia says, ``In 2010, the United Nations General
Assembly proclaimed 24 March as the "International Day for the Right to the
Truth Concerning Gross Human Rights Violations and for the Dignity of Victims"
in recognition of the role of Archbishop Romero in defence of human rights``.
Or, for short, IDFTRTTTCGHRVAFTDOV; or for shorter, IDRTCGHRVDV. I am amused by
the rather cumbersome name, not by its mission (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CHINA. 4900 & 4940, March 25 at 1250, no signals from Voices of Strait;
Recheck 1331, now JBA carriers. O yes, Aoki shows them not opening until *1300
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COLOMBIA. 5910.039, March 25 at 0433, I am hearing only HJDH during what was
publicized as the final SW broadcast ever from LITHUANIA, q.v. The least the
irregular HJDH could have done was go off the air briefly in a respectful
tribute to its companion (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 5010, 5025 & 5055, March 25 at 0455, all three are off, leaving
nothing but 5040 RHC on 59m (Glenn Hauser, oK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUANTANAMO BAY [non?]. 7248.6-USB, March 25 circa 0510, strong KG4USN, often
with fonetix ``United States Navy``, contest contacts including with W6KEC,
59-138, so I think I`ve got Gitmo, tho he never says whence, as I used to DX
hams there with KG4- prefix. Not any more! QRZ.com lookup shows
``KG4USN USA flag USA
Kenneth B Reid
5 Park Pl #705
Annapolis, MD 21401
USA
Hi all, Please note I am now in Annapolis MD as of June 2016`` And he doesn`t
say anything about ever being in Guantanamo Bay. What`s the prefix there now?
Well, per http://www.arrl.org/files/file/DXCC/2016_Current_Deleted(1).txt
KG4 is in fact the one and only prefix for the Current Entity, not a Deleted
Entity, of Guant?namo Bay! So what`s he doing using it in Maryland? This rather
sours me on any more contest DXing. The 40m band is ham-crammed, as another
contest is underway, so no point in trying to fish out Eritrean intruders. I
also tuned the entire 160m band without hearing anything (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** KURDISTAN [non]. 11600, March 25 at 1257, mix of Chinese talk and Kurdish
music, S6-S9. At 1258 the Chinese seems to stop, but circa 1300 I hear two sets
of timesignals several seconds apart (and not looking at my clock for precise
timing comparisons). The first one has one long tone, then several short ones
and a final prolonged one. The second is more conventional, 5 or 6 pips, and
then a Denge Kurdistane ID. Trying to sort this out consulting Aoki:
D.K. at 1300 is supposedly changing from one 300 kW antenna azimuth to another
from PRIDNESTROVYE. RTI is finishing an unjammed hour in Amoy, but Sound of
Hope may also be on here during long hours relaying RFA in Chinese, when it
would be jammed, presumably with CNR1 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** LITHUANIA [and non]. 5910, March 25 at 0442, Alcarav?n Radio on as usual
from COLOMBIA, during the final semi-hour broadcast ever from the Sitkunai
site, i.e. NHK relay in Russian, as Christian Milling had tipped us earlier:
he`s in Vilnius putting together a tribute to Lith SW to be broadcast later
elsewhere. A few minutes earlier on the R75 I could detect no second signal,
but now on the NRD545 I can almost convince myself there is a second slightly
offset carrier underneath (double-pitched het with BFO offtuned). At 0504
recheck again nothing but HJDH.
Sitkunai had been carrying only a few relays which obviously didn`t make it
cost-effective. But as too often happens, also registered a bunch of imaginary
transmissions in HFCC B-16, all dated 1234567 301016-250317; the LitEng ones
surely being the long-deleted Radio Vilnius!:
5910 0430 0500 27,28 SIT 100 79 Rus LTU NHK NHK 7185
7325 2300 2400 4,8,9 SIT 100 310 LitEng LTU LRT LTU 3011
9455 2100 2200 43,44 SIT 100 79 Cmn LTU IBB IBB 511
9555 0600 1600 29,30 SIT 100 79 LitRus LTU LRT LTU 3007
9710 0800 1500 27,28 SIT 100 259 LitEng LTU LRT LTU 3008
9735 0100 0300 4,8,9 SIT 100 310 LitEng LTU LRT LTU 3009
9740 0100 0200 42,43 SIT 100 79 Uig LTU IBB IBB 544
9825 2300 2400 43,44 SIT 100 79 Cmn LTU IBB IBB 562
Only the IBB and NHK ones have really existed. HFCC A-17 still has, just in
case, 4 SIT listings for LRT only, on 9555, 9710, 9875, 11690. Some defunct
stations just won`t let go, resulting in far too much nonsense in HFCC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 7615, UT Sat March 25 at 0311, Station YHWH is on at S9 level
but very undermodulated; still at 0433. Was not on before 0300, probably
approx. start time. Switching from the R75 to the NRD545 at 0451, now I get S8
on its meter but much more readable, about Yahweh being a jealous god (but not
envious?), and starts going thru the Ten Commandments of Yahweh, which seem to
match the better-known ones, but according to Martin K. Elliott, they are much
more severe and all-encompassing, e.g. #7, adultery, is not limited to the
physical act. For #4 he points out that Shabat starts at Friday sundown, after
which no work shall be done --- SO WHAT IS HE DOING RIGHT NOW???? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 5020, March 25 at 1251, still VP carrier, so SIBC must be
extended tonight (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TURKEY [and non]. 6080, March 25 at 0447, two very poor signals, presumably
TRT English to N America, and VOA S?o Tom?, as they have been colliding all
winter. One is slightly on the hi side, TRT as usual, making a SAH with the
other. Also stray(?) Cuban pulse jamming which is audible on LSB only. That`s
the end for 6080 Turkey, as from March 26, English to N America shifts one UT
hour earlier to 0300, and back up to 31m, 9515, which should be much better if
MUF co?perate; and the // for Asia to 6165, which RHC will totally block here
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1870 monitoring: confirmed Friday March 24
at 2230 on WRMI 11580; JBA carrier on 5950, but by 2256 I can confirm it //
11580. What about 6855, which originally was a third //, but not confirmed
lately? NO:
6855 is very poor with music at first; by 2259 I can make out an ID as
``community radio for Alaska``, and playing ``Rock Around the Clock`` --- so
it`s the KIYU special which originally aired (mostly) on Friday, Feb 24, a
month ago! But like many `specials` on WRMI, or even canceled programs, they
keep repeating week after week without notice.
WOR 1870 also confirmed Fri Mar 24 at 2330 on WBCQ 9329.8v-CUSB, very poor.
This Saturday I monitor 7265-USB continuously via UTwente from 1523, and hear
nothing but noise! WOR is supposed to appear at 1531. However at 1557 I
suddenly hear CRI closing Hindi, and JBA, there I am in the background. Altho
the SDR was displaying 7265 all along as I had entered, I fear due to computer
overload, it was really stuck tuned to some other previously entered frequency.
Confirming it`s really listening to 7265 now, from *1600 blasts on CRI opening
Russian.
>From April, WOR time shifts to 1431 UT Sat, which should lessen any CCI from

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 7490, UT Sat Mar 25 circa 0045, WBCQ with `Allan Weiner Worldwide` in
progress. He`s on the phone with J. P. discussing early television sets (which
he collects) and history of TV in UK, USA. This goes on and on, then
interrupted by a repeat caller from France, making some political points hard
for Allan and us to follow, but hey, it`s free speech -- until 0122 or so he
hangs up and starts to go thru the e-mail, but audio suddenly stops at 0124 ---
dead air. 0126 music fill starts, and I tune out. But I should have kept
listening; at 0133 I am again hearing snippets of AHW, and someone else
off-mike; sounds like a conversation they don`t know is on the air (partly).
0137 finally canned ID and over to Brother Scare (who was already on
5129.8v-AM, presumably starting at 0100) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 7780, March 25 at 0235 check, this WRMIBS is back on air, after
missing yesterday, but it`s even weaker than usual, on the least useful azimuth
for here, southwards from Okee (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

I'm selling 4 radios, not because anything is wrong with them but I just
need to declutter a bit, plus I haven't used some of them in months.
The radios come with NO accessories, no wall-wart power supplies and some
are missing battery covers.
$125 for a Sony ICF2010
$125 for either of the Grundig Sattelit 750's
$150 for the Sangean ATS909X
You will also pay for shipping, which will be $15 for the 2010 or ATS909X.
$25 for the Grundig 750
If you wanted to buy all of these radios, I'd be willing to deal.
No money order, cash or check. PayPal only.
No trades, I'm looking downsize some of the excess I've accumulated over
the last 16 months.
Would prefer to sell to someone in the 50 United States. Would sell to
Canada or the UK/Europe/NZ/Aus with the understanding the shipping would be
much more.

** ALBANIA [non]. 9850 & 9855, March 26 at 0142, clear frequencies in case
Radio Tirana should be able to reactivate its SW services in A-17, as either
would work for what used to be English to North America at 0130 except UT
Mondays. Will new programming still be produced without radio outlets? It is
reported to be finally closing all its own SW and MW transmissions.
The German service has its separate organization and fan base. Manfred Reiff
tells the DXLD yg: ``According to a German language email received today from
Christian Milling (shortwaveservice.com) the station will broadcast Radio
Tirana's German service Mondays through Saturdays at 1930-2000 UT (2130-2200
CEST/MESZ) on 3985 and 6005 kHz. So the first broadcast will be on Monday,
March 27 at 1930 UT``
These are 1 kW transmitters in Kall, GERMANY, which already relay several other
ex-SW stations (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 6180 & 11780, March 26 at 0119, RNA/RNB is AWOL for sixth night in a

Bandeirantes has been off, nor 11815, sporadic RBC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 2749-USB, March 26 at 0158, roboYL in French with day-by-day
forecasts of some marine weather, at S9 until off at 0200*. I still can`t catch
a definite ID, if any, but Canadian CG shows the latest 2749 transmission is
VCS Halifax from Chebogue NS site starting at 0140 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** COLOMBIA. 5910.03, March 26 at 0147, Alcarav?n Radio music now in the clear
around S9, as Romania has just evacuated 5910 for the duration of A-17. HFCC
now shows nothing on 5910 between 2000 and 1130, tho may be incomplete, except
0000-0100 the worldwide emergency standby channel for RDR, Vatican SMG the
placeholder. (RRI is still on 5910 heavily to Europe 1430-2000) (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 11880, March 25 at 2206, RHC in French this semi-hour, no longer in
English since March 11 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 5025, March 26 at 0153, R. Rebelde is off again, leaving a JBA
carrier, presumably Quillabamba, Per? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUANTANAMO BAY [non]. Replies to my log of KG4USN, not Gitmo:
Glenn, Gitmo does have KG4 but only if it has a two-letter suffix. KG4 with a
three-letter suffix is regular mainland USA. My most recent logs of the real
thing were KG4BP in 2016 and KG4HI in 2015. 73 (Eike Bierwirth, Germany, March
25, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
Glenn, Here's some info that may clarify Guant?namo Bay amateur callsigns.
Gitmo callsigns are issued by the Navy, not the FCC, and are 2x2 calls. That
is, a true Gitmo call will always be from the group KG4AA thru KG4ZZ..
The callsign you heard, KG4USN, has a "Radio Service" code of "HA"
meaning it was a sequentially issued call. The ham operator did not
receive that call as a result of having been in Gitmo, nor is it a
vanity callsign. Hope this helps. 73, (Jim K5JG, ibid.)
Tnx, Eike and Jim; I see. So whose bright idea was it to intermix unique
prefices for US overseas entities, with CONUS ham calls?? Also the call-areas
no longer seem to mean anything. Beyond US, the numbers would match nearest US
territory, such as KZ5 for Canal Zone, KG4 for Gitmo, K#6 for various Pacific
Islands. But Maryland is not even in 4-land; and now it seems anyham may move
anywhere to a different call area and still retain their original call, without
even a /# (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MADAGASCAR. 6190, March 26 at 0212, MWV now here for A-17, ex-7390, song in
Spanish; not on originally planned 6070, whew for CFRX, but I bet the PTB at
CFRB never new they were threatened. Fortunately, someone at WCB changed it,
after we pointed out CFRX on 6070 despite missing from HFCC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6940-LSB (not USB), March 26 at 0143, pirate soul music; 0150
ID as ``Radio Free, Whatever``, as DJ says his ``very last listener has fallen
off, probably nobody else out there listening. Post right now to HF Underground
for me to stay on the air; [shortly:] Dick Weed, finally signing off`` at
0151*. Well, I`m here, but not on an internet device while DXing, tsk2.
6940-USB (not LSB), March 26 at 0208 recheck, pirate music at S9, 0210 DJ
apologizes to Radio Cosmo(?) for calling him a C-S-M-F; that was just a test.
``Next song from Zipper Club on Radio Free, Whatever`` which is back on (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ROMANIA. 9730, March 26 at 0125, RRI is already up and running on A-17
schedule, in French at S9+10 with Romanian folk music. 7375 found stronger //
at 0138 now with C&W song but apparently in French.
7335, March 26 at 0140, RRI also back here for A-17 with piano concerto,
S9+30. Listed // for Romanian service at 0000-0200 is 9790. Has a classical
concert on Saturday nights, which The Mighty KBC will never do (still on 6145)
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN. 9690, March 25 at 2208, REE VG at S9+25, Spanish rock music and
interviewing musicians. Last date for 7 months that REE will be on the air this
hour or this frequency. For A-17, 17855 to North America replaces it, ending at
2200, but at first it may have problems propagating all the way; should be much
better from the start at 1400 ex-1500 on weekends (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** SRI LANKA. 11905, March 26 at 0114, SLBC with S4-S5 carrier just come on,
JBA music at 0116, but never detected any mis-timesignal. Jose Jacob says this
was recently reactivated, so my not hearing it all winter was not due only to
propagation (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also UNIDENTIFIED 9720
** TURKEY. 9515, March 26 at 0333, very poor signal with Turkishish music and
flutter, presumably VOT English to North America now here from 0300 for A-17,
ex-6080. We hope propagation improve as summer oncome. We may also try 15450 at
1230, and 9830 at 2200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGST)
** U S A. 7535v-LSB, March 26 at 0132, distorted very intermittent ham signal,
obviously a contest worker, unstable and hard to copy with BFO. At first I
figure it`s a spur from 40 meters, but don`t find a match tuning across another
receiver. Then I realize it could be a second harmonic from ``80`` meters, and
sure enough, there he is // on 3768-LSB, ID as WS9V, working someone at
59-1050. The fundamental isn`t wobbling around like the harmonic. WS9V is James
J ``Skip`` Riba, PO BOX 73, Virden, IL 62690 USA, but at QRZ.com says he may
not be the operator all the time during contests (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1870 monitoring: confirmed Saturday March 25 after
2230 on WBCQ, 9330.05v-CUSB, S8. Also confirmed UT Sunday March 26 starting
just as I tune in at 0329.5 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, Wentzville MO, S9+20. Next:
Sun 1030 HLR 9485-CUSB to SW [ex- 1130 expected due to MESZ]
Sun 2330 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
Mon 0300v WBCQ 5130v Area 51 to WSW

Wed 2330 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 7490.10v, March 25 at 2157, WBCQ The Planet IDs and IS, runup to
sign-on, so not on an hour earlier this Saturday with anything Special (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 11580, Sat Mar 25 at 2200, WRMI opening `Your Weekend Show`, as
scheduled on 5950 only. This hour on 11580 is not accounted for, but so far it
all seems to be matching 5950. But 6855 is again unknown.
9955, UT Sun March 26 at 0121, WRMI with preacher in Haitian Kriyol. Skedgrid
now shows this quarter-hour as `Soulsvision` which would not otherwise clue us
in to the language.
9395, UT Sun March 26 at 0128, this WRMI is not Oldies at the moment, but an ad
for something with an 856-number, and then ``curating the King James Version``,
with rock music background, over to a YL reading Psalms XXVI, Yahwuh-this and
Yahwuh-that, so another YHWH cult. Checking my handy NIV with Psalms, it says
``O Lord``, this and that. Not good enough! For a picky, picky deity. But what
program is this?
9395, UT Sun March 26 at 0205, now here`s yet another additional `Wavescan`
repeat from 0200 as Ray Robinson is reading a script about CBR and CBRX, which
later became CBU and CBUX/CKZU in Vancouver, about its site on Lulu Island
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9770, March 26 at 0123, S8-S9 signal with modulation cutting out
and in about 4 times per second, talk in language impossible to recognize, then
music, 0124 to dead air, and off at 0124.5*. HFCC A-17 shows two possibilities:
SLBC Sri Lanka, 125 kW, 345 degrees in Hindi from 0115 (which looks a lot like
the 11905 entry now shown as 0000-0300); or Voice of Turkey in Spanish at
0100-0200. Like last summer, it`s // 9870, so should have tried to match them
up; next time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 12121.20-USB, March 26 at 0118, 2-way in Spanish with cambios.
Maybe we could push it to 12121.21 for the sake of symmetry? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
